From Steven:
Two weeks ago I wrote about two of the principles mentioned in the popular DVD, “The Secret,” and how those principles relate to living life in the divine flow. But I also pointed out how important it is to remember that it takes more than just visualization and positive feelings to effortlessly manifest what you want in life . . . it also requires action.
Shortly after I sent that email, a reader named Cindy shared this perfect example with me:
For quite some time, Cindy’s boyfriend, Kyle, wanted to own a home instead of renting one. And Cindy wanted that for Kyle, too. Ideally, Kyle wanted a home that was close to Cindy’s, and close to work. He wanted his monthly payments to be no more than what he was paying in rent. And he wanted to purchase a home without having to make a down payment. Ideal, indeed!
One day Cindy was out shopping with her sisters when she suddenly got the urge to return home. She had only been home a short time before a lady knocked on her door. The lady wanted to know what days of the week were scheduled for trash pick-up. And Cindy told her.
As the lady turned to leave, she happened to say that she was fixing up a house to rent. Even though the lady hadn’t mentioned selling the house, Cindy sensed that she should find out more.
As it turned out, the house was right around the corner from Cindy, and only a few minutes from Kyle’s work. But even better, Cindy discovered that this lady was, in fact, willing to sell this house. She was tired of dealing with tenants, and tired of making repairs. If she could find someone to buy the house—as is—she would sell it for a relatively small down payment.
To make a long story shorter, suffice it to say that Kyle now owns his own home. Although the purchasing process required persistence, patience, and a whole lot of steps to be taken, the entire experience always felt like it was "in the flow." In fact, the financial arrangements couldn't have worked out better.
Due to a problem with the title to the property —an issue that would take months to straighten out—Kyle was unable to take immediate possession of the house. However, it was to the benefit of the lady who owned the house to have it occupied. So, until the title could be cleared, she offered to let Kyle rent the home for the same amount of money he was currently paying in rent . . . and all those payments could be applied to the down payment— essentially eliminating it!
Incredibly, Kyle had his dream fulfilled almost exactly as he envisioned it. And his mortgage payments turned out to be even less that the rent he used to pay!
The “moral” to this story? Sometimes the answer to your prayer literally comes knocking at your door. But you have to recognize that opportunity when it comes knocking, and then be willing to open the door. You have to recognize the steps the universe is guiding you to take, and then take those steps—all of them—even when they seem to have little to do with your immediate goals.
When Cindy felt like she should return home from shopping, she did. When the lady knocked on her door, Cindy opened the door. And when the lady mentioned the word “house,” Cindy was inspired to keep the conversation going. Step by step by step, Cindy followed her guidance and helped Kyle fulfill his long-held desire.
As Cindy wrote, “Only the universe could have orchestrated such a perfect win-win situation for everyone. But it did require us to act. I’m glad that people are embracing the message of ‘The Secret,’ but I hope they realize that they must recognize the miracles when they come, and then be willing to do their part.”
Thank you, Cindy. I couldn’t have said it better myself.
