FINDING Love Part Three – Open Your Heart to Receive By Rev. Nina Roe You know you want to make changes in your life. But where do you begin? How do you start to create that change? What steps do you need to take to manifest your deepest desires? Where is the Love you’re looking for…the love of life, the love of self, the love of God? In the first article of this series, Finding Love, we focused on the Powerful Cycle of Prayer (Feb/Mar) and learned how important it is to ask for help from God and the Angels. In the second article, with all the stresses of our modern society, we understood how crucial it is to Maintain Sacred Balance (Apr/May) as we wait for our prayers to be answered. In this last and final article, we bring attention to the often overlooked art of receiving; of trusting that if we open our hearts and surrender to the will of the Divine Spirit, we will not only feel safe, but we will live a peaceful and joyful existence. This Divine Spirit speaks to you through all your senses: sight, sound, taste, smell and touch. Spirit also communicates through your ability to open your heart and expand to the infinite possibilities that are always available to you. I call this opening of your heart the same as developing your Angelic Intuition. Where your senses are anchored in your brain, your intuition is anchored in your heart. The more closed your heart, the harder it is to receive the abundant answers to the prayers your Angels have waiting for you. The more you can open yourself up to love with every cell of your body, the more you will experience life with a sureness that exudes “yes, there is a Higher Power that answers my prayers and yes, I can trust it because Its love for me is safe, unconditional and pure.” One of my passions is teaching women how to connect with their Angelic Intuition. Interestingly enough most are already conscious of a relationship with their Angels. Certainly their communication is on the never ending path of continuous improvement, but they do believe a higher power exists and they can feel that connection in a moment of “I knew I should have !” The Angels tell me that women have closer access to their intuition because of their inherent energetic bond with others. The definition of the word “intuition” comes from extending your energy field into that of another life form. As women, we are born with an easy ability to reach into other energy fields and assess what’s going on. We possess this gift, because our primary role is to nurture, support and care for our children, our friends, our families and basically anyone we encounter. As mothers, without obvious evidence, we know when something is wrong with our children – even if they are 3000 miles away. We can sense that a diaper will need changing five minutes before the pee happens. We know when our children say they’re fine after a day at school and we know they’re anything but fine. We understand at a very refined level when things are “off.” We are the natural givers as designed by God. (Please note: this is not to say that there are men who are fully capable of mothering. I often say my husband is more of a mother than I am, but for the majority of the men, this is not yet the case.) As women, we are most challenged with two primary elements when it comes to using our intuition. First, when things are “off,” too many times we mask our feelings with explanations of denial. I’ll give you a personal example that comes and goes straight from my heart. Our son is a beautiful, loving 15 year old who is very independent, sure of his male self, and still says “I love you!” to me every day. He has been attending a prestigious school in Rhode Island since 5th grade. Now a freshman, he has struggled this year with his academics. Not because he can’t handle it; in fact he was evaluated and found to be very smart. He’s just bored and uninspired by what’s being taught. (I’m guessing many of you can relate to this!) Even though his grades were okay last year, I felt something was beginning to go astray. His situation was not bringing me peace at the soul level, yet I kept my head in the sand. I held back from looking truthfully at the problem that had been brewing. And then our young truth-bearer threw it in our faces and his grades slipped into a black abyss rendering his invitation to attend next year a big question mark. He needs to be in an environment that is stimulating and excites him to learn. While his current school may help him get into a high-ranking college, it may extinguish his spirit in the process. Wanting to believe that his school will change and he will find that inspiration, I’d ignored the problem; I hadn’t opened my heart to fully receive the message being sent from my Angels. As women, we know when something’s wrong, our #1 challenge is facing the situation and accepting the truth that lies before us, even if it flies in the face of logic or societal expectations. Our second hurdle comes with trusting as we maneuver through the landmines of embracing our intuition and inviting our truth to be a priority – our truth with our careers, our truth with our partners, our truth with our family relationships. Creating change can be very dramatic and sometimes paralyzing. This is when you must remain steadfast with your process of prayer, balance and openness to receive. My husband and I were shopping at a little fairy store on Newbury Street in Boston a few years ago in celebration of our 20th anniversary. As we chatted with the shopkeeper, he asked us, “How do you know when you’ve found the right partner? How do you know?” What blurted out of my mouth surprised me, but came straight from the Angels, “You don’t have to ask if it’s right. You just know… with unwavering doubt.” This is what opening your heart is all about. Knowing without question that the choices you are living each day are right for you. Live your life with unwavering faith as you pursue your personal truth. It is with discovering this truth that you find true love. And if you don’t know how to begin, then pray for guidance. Maintain balance in your life and then open your heart to receive. Your prayers will be answered. They always are. Love will find you. Are you ready to receive? Rev.
