Circles of Gratitude

Dear Friends,

I was reading the article by Colette Baron-Reid, “Intentional Synchronicity” in the Spirituality & Health magazine. We all love it when synchronistic events happen in our lives and wonder how they came to be. Just a couple weeks ago, Steve and I were talking about getting our Flu and COVID shots especially since he volunteers at Palomar Rehab hospital. Just as we talked about it, an email came in from Palomar Hospital reminding Steve to get his Flu shot. Our thoughts and the email came in at the same time. Synchronistic? Yes, I believe so. Steve had been thinking about getting the flu shot and I had been thinking about getting the flu shot. So when we broached the subject together, the energetic pieces seem to be in place. Our thoughts together and the email happened at the same time.

Colette Baron-Reid said, “You don’t make synchronicity happen. It’s a partnership with Spirit.” “We are here to be the emissary of something greater than us.” In other words, we are here to let Spirit experience life through us. We can do that by asking, declaring and affirming what we want in prayer, thoughts and feelings. We can also allow God to bring forth our highest and best by surrendering, letting go and letting God’s Will be done in our lives.

For example, years ago I wanted to dance with one of the Pros on ‘Dancing with the Stars’ TV show. There was no way, I would be on the show. It seemed like an impossibility. However, I kept thinking about it. Then some of the Pros came to Poway Performing Arts Theater and I bought a ticket. The MC said after the show people could meet the Stars. So I walked back to the area where we could “meet the stars.” I met Dimitri. And out of my mouth I said, “Can I dance with you?” He said “Of course.” My friend, who I came with, took my camera and filmed us dancing! YES, I still have that video! Was that synchronistic? YES. My thoughts and an event matching my thoughts came together in God’s way, at God’s time.

Many of us have created Vision Boards over the years and have experienced the JOY of having our hopes, dreams and wishes come true. Colette suggested we create Synchronistic VISION Boards with Circles. Draw a box inside your paper with Circles of Gratitude where your wishes, dreams and affirmations exist. Outside the box create Circles of “God’s Will be Done” to allow NEW and more wonderful happenings in your life to manifest. Sometimes we just don’t know what would be better in our life. This is where we give God Carte Blanche!  Give it a try and enjoy how it worked in your life!

Blessings,   Abigail and Steve
