Three Knocks


Three Knocks

Three knocks from spirit is a phrase and truth I have seen many times appear in life, yet easily forgotten also. Lately it seemed to have been more forgotten than remembered. Tending to get caught up in my own life, this recession and like many more wondering what another day will bring, hoping for the good surprises rather than anything negative. With the focus of my own communication with spirit seeming to surround how energy in monetary form is looked at other wise than in all other forms of this world.

Healing energy I have complete faith in without doubts of the power, energy exchanged I am aware of in cause and affect we have with everyone without our energy fields at anytime, but monetary the thoughts become completely three dimensional at time and very physical instead of seeing this form as transmutable energy also. Money is an anchor in this world even in phrases commonly used such as "you can't take it with you"! We negate to see money as transmutable energy of our life. When it is there, it is there – when it is not we lose faith in the transformational power of the energy. Putting more faith into what we do not see, rather than what we do see.

When you are caught up in the cycle of have and have not your own energy is reflected at the same level. The energy of money transforming your levels of energy rather than you transforming the energy of money itself. We find ourselves tying our life to our prospects of monetary value, setting aside that which we would rather be doing and investing the energy into a solid form process of thought surrounding the monetary values we hold. Our own energy many times reflects the degree of energy of our financial society on Earth. Wall streets and brokerages plunged and our level of spirit plunges as well. When we are told financial recovery is imminent we find ourselves with new hope, but all tied to monetary status of individual situations.
Through all spaces in our lives, spirit will knock three times with the same message, if we are listening and hear those knocks either time, a new understanding and change will follow. If we do not, spirit will knock another time in life, the only loss will be in the situation at hand providing the message of the now. With money as all spaces of life you reap what you sow determined by your effort and passion in the space you are in. Many times we feel as though we have done all we can do, though we are not seeing the results and wonder why? Are we listening for those knocks? Have we heard one, two, or three which went unheeded as we ignored the messengers? Or were we expecting a form of messenger in our focus and missed all knocks from narrowing our expectations?

The messenger always comes, awareness is what eludes the message or receives as given. I have been on a quest since 2007 to change the path of my life and at times it was clear I was moving forward and other times I felt I had stepped many steps back again, wondering if I should just give up and return to a path of life which was much more secure and empty than where I am at. Each time feeling nausea in the process when turning back. Nausea itself is a messenger from your own intuition telling you backwards is not the direction of your spirit even if done so as in "waiting for a little while and trying again", you are still giving up on your own faith of self in moving forward. You can even list multiple reasons to justify stopping and not proceeding to sooth your decision, but yet backwards will ill you physically and spiritually. Your soul only stretches to go forward rather than return and start again later. You can tell yourself it is too tough and non-productive, or going forward tolls your abilities. All excuses when your faith begins to falter in yourself. Or forgiving yourself for not proceeding at this time – why are you forgiving other than your own feeling of leaving a passion undone?

My dream is too open an office of my own this spring for healing, telling myself if I just step back and return to a more secure financial position, I can prepare and go forward easier – my lack of faith in the same spiritual guidance which brought me to this point now. Deciding to rely on my knowledge of energy though not as it applied to monetary means and trying to bypass assistance which is greater than I can provide to myself. Bringing into this world my form of energy work to assist others which I have done for free for a very long time now.
My first knock came in the form of a question from spirit. "You want but yet you do not feel free to receive – why?

Second came from an email sent to me from an uncle:
YOU REAP WHAT YOU SOW
Good morning said a woman as she walked up to the man sitting on ground.
The man slowly looked up.
This was a woman clearly accustomed to the finer things of life. Her coat was new.. She looked like she had never missed a meal in her life.

His first thought was that she wanted to make fun of him, like so many others had done before..  "Leave me alone," he growled....

To his amazement, the woman continued standing.

She was smiling -- her even white teeth displayed in dazzling rows. "Are you hungry?" she asked.

"No," he answered sarcastically. "I've just come from dining with the president. Now go away."

The woman's smile became even broader. Suddenly the man felt a gentle hand under his arm.  

"What are you doing, lady?" the man asked angrily. "I said to leave me alone.
Just then a policeman came up. "Is there any problem, ma'am?" he asked..

"No problem here, officer," the woman answered. "I'm just trying to get this man to his feet. Will you help me?"

The officer scratched his head.  "That's old Jack. He's been a fixture around here for a couple of years. What do you want with him?"
"See that cafeteria over there?" she asked. "I'm going to get him something to eat and get him out of the cold for awhile."  

"Are you crazy, lady?" the homeless man resisted. "I don't want to go in there!"  Then he felt strong hands grab his other arm and lift him up.  "Let me go, officer. I didn't do anything."

" This is a good deal for you, Jack" the officer answered. "Don't blow it."  
Finally, and with some difficulty, the woman and the police officer got Jack into the cafeteria and sat him at a table in a remote corner.  It was the middle of the morning, so most of the breakfast crowd had already left and the lunch bunch had not yet arrived...
The manager strode across the cafeteria and stood by his table.  "What's going on here, officer?" he asked.  "What is all this, is this man in trouble?"

"This lady brought this man in here to be fed," the policeman answered.  

"Not in here!" the manager replied angrily. "Having a person like that here is bad for business.."

Old Jack smiled a toothless grin.  "See, lady. I told you so. Now if you'll let me go. I didn't want to come here in the first place."    

The woman turned to the cafeteria manager and smiled.. "Sir, are you familiar with Eddy and Associates, the banking firm down the street?"  

"Of course I am," the manager answered impatiently. "They hold their weekly meetings in one of my banquet rooms."  

"And do you make a goodly amount of money providing food at these weekly meetings?"

"What business is that of yours?"

I, sir, am Penelope Eddy, president and CEO of the company."

"Oh."  

The woman smiled again. "I thought that might make a difference."  She glanced at the cop who was busy stifling a giggle. "Would you like to join us in a cup of coffee and a meal, officer?"

"No thanks, ma'am," the officer replied. "I'm on duty."  

"Then, perhaps, a cup of coffee to go?"

 "Yes, mam. That would be very nice."  

The cafeteria manager turned on his heel, "I'll get your coffee for you right away, officer."  

The officer watched him walk away. "You certainly put him in his place," he said.

"That was not my intent. Believe it or not, I have a reason for all this."    

She sat down at the table across from her amazed dinner guest. She stared at him intently..  "Jack, do you remember me?"
Old Jack searched her face with his old, rheumy eyes.  "I think so -- I mean you do look familiar."
"I'm a little older perhaps," she said. "Maybe I've even filled out more than in my younger days when you worked here, and I came through that very door, cold and hungry."

"Ma'am?" the officer said questioningly.  He couldn't believe that such a magnificently turned out woman could ever have been hungry.
 
"I was just out of college," the woman began. "I had come to the city looking for a job, but I couldn't find anything.  Finally I was down to my last few cents and had been kicked out of my apartment. I walked the streets for days.  It was February and I was cold and nearly starving. I saw this place and walked in on the off chance that I could get something to eat."

Jack lit up with a smile.  "Now I remember," he said..  "I was behind the serving counter.  You came up and asked me if you could work for something to eat. I said that it was against company policy."  

"I know," the woman continued. "Then you made me the biggest roast beef sandwich that I had ever seen, gave me a cup of coffee, and told me to go over to a corner table and enjoy it.  I was afraid that you would get into trouble... Then, when I looked over and saw you put the price of my food in the cash register, I knew then that everything would be all right."

"So you started your own business?" Old Jack said.

"I got a job that very afternoon. I worked my way up.  Eventually I started my own business that, with the help of God, prospered." She opened her purse and pulled out a business card.. "When you are finished here, I want you to pay a visit to a Mr. Lyons...He's the personnel director of my company. I'll go talk to him now and I'm certain he'll find something for you to do around the office."  She smiled.  "I think he might even find the funds to give you a little advance so that you can buy some clothes and get a place to live until you get on your feet... If you ever need anything, my door is always opened to you."

There were tears in the old man's eyes. "How can I ever thank you?" he said.

"Don't thank me," the woman answered. "To God goes the glory. Thank Jesus... He led me to you."  

Outside the cafeteria, the officer and the woman paused at the entrance before going their separate ways....
"Thank you for all your help, officer," she said.

"On the contrary, Ms. Eddy," he answered. "Thank you. I saw a miracle today, something that I will never forget. And..And thank you for the coffee."
If you have missed knowing me, you have missed nothing.

If you have missed some of my emails, you might have missed a laugh..  

But, if you have missed knowing my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, you have missed everything in the world.  

Have a Wonderful Day. May God Bless You Always and don't forget that when you "cast your bread upon the waters," you never know how it will be returned to you..

God is so big He can cover the whole world with his Love and so small He can curl up inside your heart..

When God leads you to the edge of the cliff, trust Him fully and let go.
Only 1 of 2 things will happen, either He'll catch you when you fall, or He'll teach you how to fly!


The  power of one sentence!

God is going to shift things around for you today and let things work in your favor.

God closes doors no man can open & God opens doors no man can close..
If you need God to open some doors for you...send this on.

Have a blessed day and remember to be a blessing...
LIVE WELL, LOVE MUCH, LAUGH OFTEN  
And the third while reading a passage from Oral Roberts this afternoon:
God is your source, sow your seed out of your need, and expect a miracle harvest –
Oral Roberts
The message is to keep the faith, not separate the energy in any form. Energy is energy, and all energy can be transformed. We create the density in energy when our faith of transformation is lessened. When we choose to say a feat can not be accomplished in faith, so be it, the request is granted and the changes are not present. If we choose to believe the energy transformation in healing is less than the transformation of money, our faith is being channeled separately rather than looked at being whole. Our perception will change our reality. Our faith will lift our energy to levels of our choice, we are the requestor and receiver of our wishes, what we say can be done, will be done.
Wherever you are in life today and choices which stand in your path choose transformation rather than separation. Spirit stands as the grandiose object of your divinity with many names, yet whole as one just as energy is whole when not separated.
Blessings,
Linda
