There is ONLY Doing
Ascended Master, Serapis Bey’s Weekly Message ~ October 11 – 18, 2013  


Let us begin with a moment of reflection, remembering when you told yourself with all seriousness that you were going to begin to be more productive or you were going to make a point to be more organized each and every day, possibly you were beginning a diet that never began. Even though you had the best of intentions and you were filled with great reasons to carry on what you wanted to do, your enthusiasm dissolved due to other temptations and a lack of discipline. 
 
It is very normal dear ones to have a fervent wish to improve and change yourself and various parts of your life, yet inaction finds its way and you give up due to feeling guilty found through the tirade of negative self-talk. It is important to your own personal and spiritual development for you to bring change into your life, without it there would be no learning or excelling certain aspects of yourself – you would simply stay exactly the same. The only way to get out of stagnation dear ones is by your own movement. Most of the time, what we have witnessed is that once you begin something, momentum kicks in and you are on your way. You are not expected to meet all your successes in one day, but make gradual and positive steps each day. There is nothing wrong with baby steps, and you may find with some things that you are bringing to your life that is new and exciting will move more quickly than others. You have always been the one in control of your journey. No matter how things are or where you sit right now, there is no blame to pass to anyone else. All choices were decided by you – yet we do not encourage you to blame yourself, we do encourage you to forgive yourself with the same amount of love and compassion you would share with another. 
 
If you haven’t brought in any new changes only because you became distracted and your enthusiasm has left you, remember this is also your choice. Become more accountable for the choices you make. You cannot bring new changes or learn new things if you don’t begin moving forward into a new and different direction. We understand that life can be tiresome, and when you begin to resist the positive energy of bringing in change that will bring about more good into your life on a personal and spiritual level we encourage you to push yourself a little harder. Motivate yourself with encouragement, put yourself in the company of supporting friends and family and find ways that will increase your productivity that will help you to begin to bring in the changes you want to see. 
 
If temptations have been the culprit to your inability to bring in changes when you promised yourself that you would, quickly remove yourself from this experience as it often produces guilt and will create a ton of negative self-talk that will hinder any possible growth. Accept dear ones that you derailed and get back on and be more determined than ever to bring in the changes that you know in your heart are of the highest of good. 
 
The changes you wish to bring about are important to you. Make them work, believe in them and focus on the outcome and how you will feel when you reach your success. If you really, truly wish to succeed in bringing any change to your life, then you will – don’t add pressure, just find ways that will motivate you and keep you on track that are uplifting and inspiring. Don’t become your own bully, become your own best friend. 
 
When is the best time to bring in changes? Now. You don’t wait until a good day to begin because every day is a good day. Nothing will ever get started if you don’t take action now. Create an action plan that is filled with achievable steps, create the start date as now and begin. There is no putting it off, because putting it off is a distraction caused by something else. Discipline yourself towards the goals you are wishing to accomplish. How badly do you want to bring those changes in? If you are trying to lose a few pounds, create a meal plan that will work for you that you will not deviate from – as we said before become your own best friend, don’t fight with yourself, take each step with love towards something better that is good, and not only good for yourself but from the positive energy you would be emitting, that good feeling will touch others in a wonderfully divine way. 
 
We mentioned just above that it is important to make achievable goals…little goals that will bring you face-to-face with the goal you have set out to meet. Understand dear ones; inactivity can be a powerful force if you allow this kind of inaction to be a part of your life. Changes can be difficult at first to begin, but only because they are new and you are uncertain. Maybe you haven’t built enough trust within yourself yet. Create action steps towards the goal you are aiming to reach to include ways that will help to increase your confidence and when your confidence is boosted so is your drive and ambition. Every little win you meet along your journey is big, it denotes progress and progress is what is going to conquer your inactivity one-step-at-a-time. We remind you to take small steps, don’t rush the changes to happen. You have much to learn along the way and we want for you to enjoy each step, embrace all newness that comes your way as a gift from God. You will reach your goal successfully, when you learn to love yourself and give yourself kindness and respect. As long as you keep going, even in a slow pace you are still actively bringing in change. There is no trying, there is only doing – become more proactive upon this journey you have embarked. 
 
Discipline and commitment combined provides you with a powerful partnership of strength and energy that will help to keep you on track and to achieve your goal of bringing in certain changes that you already know and realize are of your highest of good. Become the opposite of inactivity. Share your plans with others that are supportive, by doing so you are building a supportive network that is essential and helpful for you to stay firmly placed on your path that is leading you to the achievement of the goals you have prepared to reach. 
 
As we have mentioned prior, taking baby steps is not a bad way of going. Don’t look at what another person is doing; focus on your own steps. Don’t take on too much at first or you may find yourself becoming overwhelmed. As you begin to lose the uncertainty and doubt you will gain more trust in yourself and you will know when it’s okay to take on a little more and be able to accomplish the addition you added. Give yourself breaks with solitude and relaxation and congratulate yourself for how much you have achieved already. If it helps dear ones, create a journal so you can record how you feel and what you have learned of yourself and of your global backyard. Seeing in front of you what you, yourself has accomplished can be a big motivator to keep going to see what else you can discover and learn. Your challenges never have to be viewed with a negative tone, but also have the potential of being seen as positive with necessary lessons that are rich with information that will help grow your knowledge and develop deeper wisdom. Remember dear ones, even on days where tiredness tries to set in in order to derail your progress mark this down and how you countered this attempt – be confident and enthusiastic that you will accomplish each step that will bring you to the goal you have put so much energy in planning. 
 
We understand how hard some days will be over others. Because you have reached so far already, use this knowledge as inspiration to keep going. You have persevered so much already, another step or two is not truly going to hurt. Obstacles will come your way and they are there to help enrich what you have learned and to let you know what else you need to work on before you proceed ahead and claim your goal. Don’t frown at any mistakes – look at them as offerings of new opportunities to try again making different selections that will produce different outcomes. 
 
Don’t stop due to a little upset in your plans – be flexible and keep going. Things are bound to happen, know this as truth. You cannot prepare absolutely for them because you never know when they will happen or exactly what the obstacle will be. Remember your journey, the path you are on that is taking you one step closer to fulfilling the goal you have planned for, you are responsible for. You don’t really need to prove to anyone but yourself that you can accomplish and bring positive changes to your life. Each step dear ones is one step closer to going somewhere, gaining more knowledge; to growing and developing a deeper and more aware self and these steps you are taking ...are taking you into the path of success that will bring about positive changes that will fill your whole life with tranquility and satisfaction that you did it. The power has always been within you, re-discover your tenacious spirit and be all that we know you can be.

WE ARE ALL ONE... HELPING OTHERS ULTIMATELY HELPS OURSELVES: The path to wholeness also brings more happiness and contentment into your life. You are able to attain these when you step forward to help guide another that requires a little help in the right direction. When you help another you are demonstrating God working through you in all your actions. This improves not only what people are able to see on the surface but you also improve the dynamic intensity and pureness of your heart that comes from within. This is achieved because you have consciously chosen to become accountable, even for the good things you do for others. The more connected you become with other people at the level of their soul, the more complete and whole you will feel. When you willingly help others to realize their potential, to help them discover their own skills and help them to explore new areas that will raise their knowledge you are also helping you – the teacher is also the student. As you help others to reach their full potential you also recognize that their skills and abilities differ from yours and there is no envy, there is no animosity, there is only encouragement, respect, compassion, unconditional love and joy that is felt while helping others to become more of what they already are.

Thank you Serapis and Julie!

Achieving Wholeness Requires Responsible Action: 
Ascended Master, Serapis Bey’s Weekly Message ~ August 09 – 16
One of the main goals along your spiritual path is to restore your soul self to its full potential, to achieve the fundamental needs and requirements that brings wholeness into your mental, spiritual, and physical faculties that demonstrates the purity of your love in every action, word, thought, feeling and will. 
 
It is often witnessed that many dear souls are too busy changing their roles or hats, the masks they wear for some people, then quickly change them for other groups of people and some of those hats and roles they don they are not necessarily qualified to wear but they wear them anyway, creating a false sense of identity. Living in such a state is living without wholeness, many times creates a collapse within relationships, inner peace is lost and many times unneeded stress and discord is the outcome. 
 
It is vital to learn how to reconnect by putting the broken pieces back together, and to recover your soul self and gradually bring your Self back into a state of wholeness. Dear ones; you must be willing to bring in the necessary changes and take responsibility. This is your journey dear ones, each of you are worthy to feel your own power and to live continually in a state of complete and total wholeness. 
 
Every time you consciously choose to help another along their journey that helps bring them closer to their own wholeness, you are also achieving more completeness, more vision and meaning to your purpose – you become an active demonstration of God in all you do as His presence is alive within you. The more you help others selflessly and unconditionally the more mastery and control you gain over your own thoughts, feelings and intentions. Remember dear ones, in order to attain and achieve wholeness, it is essential to have vision, an action plan, to have pure intent, to acknowledge the presence of God working within you and believe dear ones that you can do and become anything when you put your heart and soul into every step. When you are fully present, living in the NOW moment, you are living and being complete within your pure intentions, visions, plans and all actions. 
 
Attaining and achieving wholeness also requires one to be fully aware and continually honouring the authentic truth of themselves and accepting the power of your endless intelligence, immeasurable skills and abilities, your unbounded dexterity and at the same time honouring the same truth and power that is within other dear souls across this vast universe. As you continue on the path to achieve wholeness, you are not only aware but you are willing to take responsibility for everything you have said and done, you become responsible not only for any harm you may have caused but you are also responsible for all positive energy you have emitted. All skills you have achieved and honed are your responsibility. Become omni-responsible dear ones, as we remind you – this is your journey, no matter who you choose to guide you, what master you turn to for support and help, it is still you that must make the choice to listen to their words and put their wisdom into action. Understand that winning and losing all holds infinite learning potential and every time you take responsibility for all that occurs in your life you are propelling your soul self into the state of wholeness that you have been working with great integrity and diligence on to achieve. 

 
As you learn to become responsible for your whole self, you are also learning the importance of becoming truthfully aware of ALL your limitations, any restraints you have created for yourself through excuses or conditioning. Since this is your journey, it is you that sets the guidelines, restrictions and you are the one making all the choices. Being on the path to wholeness requires truthful honesty of your whole self, accepting all that you are that includes any faults and any perfections that you discover of your Self along the way. 
 
Understand dear ones, when you are coming from the state of wholeness, you already comprehend that any losses, regardless of size if it’s a loss of power, place, challenges, etc., are all part of your journey. You know and understand full well the destructiveness of having a negative attitude and thought forms; you have seen first-hand the chaos they can create. As a result, you have learned you can gather more personal strength and skill by learning from these down moments and take the learning opportunities that they included. Problems and difficult challenges are common, they come many times when you least expect them, but they hold so many learning opportunities, because of them you have learned and grown in great leaps and bound. Through each one you have become stronger, more capable; you understand more the reason to be compassionate, and unconditionally loving. You will always be presented with something to learn, you only need to be willing to recognize the lessons and take the appropriate action to turn that knowledge you are gaining into wisdom for future use. 
 
The path to wholeness also brings more happiness and contentment into your life. You are able to attain these when you step forward to help guide another that requires a little help in the right direction. When you help another you are demonstrating God working through you in all your actions. This improves not only what people are able to see on the surface but you also improve the dynamic intensity and pureness of your heart that comes from within. This is achieved because you have consciously chosen to become accountable, even for the good things you do for others. The more connected you become with other people at the level of their soul, the more complete and whole you will feel. When you willingly help others to realize their potential, to help them discover their own skills and help them to explore new areas that will raise their knowledge you are also helping you – the teacher is also the student. As you help others to reach their full potential you also recognize that their skills and abilities differ from yours and there is no envy, there is no animosity, there is only encouragement, respect, compassion, unconditional love and joy that is felt while helping others to become more of what they already are. 
 
Remember dear ones, becoming whole means nothing has been taken away, you didn’t throw anything out, you have merely accepted that everything has value and is worthy of consideration. Becoming entirely and totally whole is knowing your whole self, knowing all your complete truths, all the good and bad and accepting that the combination of all facts is you. There are no hats needed to be worn here, accept your whole self as it is perfect within all its faults and perfections. If you find there are places along your life stream that require a little fine-tuning then that is your choice to bring in the changes that will add to your state of being whole. 
 
Become not only the change you want to see in the world around you, be your own inspiration. 
 
And so it is…

Thanks to Hope Ascended Master, Serapis Bey’s Weekly Message ~ July 26 – August 02, 2013   Hope is an essential part of your being dear ones. It provides you with nurturing reassurance that gives you the necessary fuel to rise each morning. Thanks to Hope, you are able to continue going through your path positively, discovering ways of improving all relationships, and to motivate and inspire yourself that will lead you to deeper and more fulfilling success. When you combine Hope with optimism you create an energy that will propel you forward with clarity that will demonstrate your energetic self that has always been a part of you.    Having Hope and optimism doesn’t mean you are thinking and acting blindly by expecting everything to fall into perfect place every time, or to miraculously avoid every challenge or every danger. Understand dear ones this kind of thinking can easily inadvertently cause harm to your Self. We will provide you with an example for further clarification: knowing you have been experiencing pain across your chest, you refuse to visit a physician because you are blindly hopeful and optimistic that there is nothing wrong and everything will be just fine, when there could be something definitely seriously wrong. This is what Hope is not.    Hope requires you to still be on the alert for challenges, potential dangers and negatives that are going to cross your path and to accept each challenging situation with optimism. It is vitally important to be aware of both good and bad in every situation, but to choose to focus on what is good, knowing in your heart that with your positive action, positive results will be the product.    Hope has an important role in each aspect of your life. Thanks to Hope you are able to motivate yourself with positive action that will bring about positive outcomes. Being hopeful has always been a natural way to relieve stress. When you consciously choose to be more hopeful you are also creating a stronger immune system which basically means a healthier you. When you have Hope, your relationships improve because you are giving off optimistic and happy energy and positive energy attracts positive things and people. When you add Hope to your thought patterns, you discover you are able to step beyond your normal comfort zone and venture into the unknown. As you step into the unknown, Hope helps you to discover your courage and inner strength and the doors that open to you begins to quench your thirst for knowledge and information also begins to develop a deeper knowing of YOU; a you that is connected to every living thing within this amazing universe.    Regardless if you are optimistic by nature or more pessimistic the majority of people across your beautiful Earth all carry with them certain expectations in regards to their future. We remind you dear ones; it is through your choices, the ones you make each day that helps to develop your path that will bring you to your future. When you add Hope to the picture, you become more aware of your journey and you are able to make better choices that are filled with learning opportunities that will enrich each step you take.    Even pessimists can become more positive. They have their own rationale when it comes to how they think, and they like to claim they are being realistic when in fact they are really deceiving themselves because they falsely create negative thoughts based on uncertainty and many times because of fear. It is normal to occasionally think pessimistically when you are venturing into new territory, but you can use these negative thoughts as key elements that will help bring about more positive thought forms. Let them guide you to what is hopeful and optimistic.    To counter the moments you are feeling pessimistic, remind yourself when you don’t get what you want, you are then presented with the opportunity to learn what to do next time around that will bring more positive results. Don’t allow the disappointment to take over and rule your thoughts and feelings. Use each disappointment as stepping stones to your success. There is an old saying, “practice makes perfect”. There is no deception in these words. When you apply effort from your heart and soul in each step, you will be rewarded. Of course patience and tolerance are an essential duo to your journey. You have so much to learn, but in truth what you are doing is remembering what you need to bring about your authentic self. The self that is naturally loving, compassionate and accepting of all people and just as importantly you accept your whole self for who you are at all times.    Hope is good; Hope is nurturing and kind. It is Hope that whispers silently in your ear just when you are about to give up, to try a little more. Many times what we witness are those that cannot take another step forward and quit, what they were aiming to achieve was just over the next horizon. Remember dear ones; all things come when they should. Some things will take longer to achieve than others. There is no special time that dictates when you have to achieve a certain goal unless its work related. Enjoy your journey, take your time and learn well. No matter how fast or slow you go, you will always reach the outcome that was created from your choices that will also illustrate how much effort you applied each step of the way…it’s all a matter of time.    And so it is…   I AM Ascended Master, Serapis Bey through Julie Miller

For many dear souls, they tread on change with trepidation yet change is good, never bad. Once you move away from the fear, you will soon realize that with each passing step you take, you will begin to feel more confident and your Inner Strength will supplement your energy to continue. We know how easy it is for many, dear souls, to see changes as doom, but when you change how you look at life and embrace all changes as friends with love, this fear of change diminishes and what is replaced is a fervor of positive and optimistic thinking that everything will be fine. Be prepared dear ones for anything, and you will benefit when all commotion has settled.

Thank you Serapis Bey and Julie!

Treat each change as if it’s an unpredictable friend
Ascended Master, Serapis Bey’s Weekly Message ~ May 24 – 30, 2013
 
Each day is a new day, one to be celebrated and greeted with love and gratitude. As each day begins, so does your ability to choose every part of your day in all areas. It is true, some of the changes you make may appear to be small, but even the smallest of change that is filled with optimism and hope cultivates within each of you dependable characteristics that are nourished through your choices and the nourishment dear ones is the love you give your Self that is felt by those around you. Embrace all the changes that upon you and rejoice in the changes that are yet to appear. 
 
It is essential to the current path of your incredible life journey to learn how to be unaffected by some of the changes that you are creating. Yes, we encourage you to notice them, but let them pass as more are coming and we encourage you through our love and support to be confident with how you learn to cope with any new development that may change the course of any situations you may currently be involved in. How you react and respond to sudden obstacles does affect how your journey will proceed – by remaining positively filled with Hope and Faith you will succeed and liberate your whole being into contentment. 
 
It is important to once in a while to observe yourself and how you handle sudden change, or any kind of change. By carefully observing yourself, you will recognize any particular method that requires fine-tuning or replacing with more efficient and effective methods that will help you handle all changes in a positive manner. 
 
We encourage each of you to simplify your views and attitude in regards to your life’s journey and all the areas you actively take part in every day. We observe many of you being swallowed by the bombardment of information that is coursing all around you. Allow your heart to guide to what is important right NOW – focus on one or two things at a time and stay with what your heart has drawn you to for as long as you need; there is no rush to your journey. Don’t compare your development and growth to those around you, you will grow and develop at your own pace in your own way. Your decisions dear ones affect the changes you bring, so does your mindset and how you handle the change even if you know and accept the change is good. Stay in control of each situation, not allowing any changes to get the better of you. 
 
It is essential dear ones to already accept that change will come – always. Your life is about changes and choices and how you adapt and react to each one. Changes will never stop occurring; they will always be a part of your life. We support your ability to bring balance and renewed Hope and Faith into each instance whenever things go not according to what you planned or envisioned. Even when things are going great, always be prepared for those “just in case” scenarios when plans begin to show signs of deterioration. You elevate the amount of stress and disappointment by how attached you become to the success of any outcome. Sometimes things do get out-of-control and there is not stopping once certain things are set in motion, but how you deal with the sudden change will provide you with much insight to your own inner self that will later develop into wisdom. Hold on tight to the changes, sometimes they bring bumpy rides, but once over the growth you have received is immense and deep joy settles in from the depth of your soul and filters into your heart that glows from the outside in the form of self-satisfaction and happiness. 
 
When you add a new addition to your routine, it is good to reflect occasionally on how to respond to possible changes that may arise. Take time to think about possible changes and how they could cause issues in other areas that you are part of. Think honestly and truthfully, how you would react to a sudden change and how you would cope to bring about a positive solution. 
 
 It is important dear ones to truly accept that there is no way for you to anticipate everything that is to come up along your journey. Embrace the unknown as it brings much of the changes that are important for your Spiritual Growth and Personal Development. There will be changes you will face from situations that are not to your liking, but they help build who you are becoming. Begin building a non-defensive strategy that is aimed at all changes and treat each change that approaches as a friend that can be disruptive and loud, but you love them anyway. 
 
For many dear souls, they tread on change with trepidation yet change is good, never bad. Once you move away from the fear, you will soon realize that with each passing step you take, you will begin to feel more confident and your Inner Strength will supplement your energy to continue. We know how easy it is for many, dear souls, to see changes as doom, but when you change how you look at life and embrace all changes as friends with love, this fear of change diminishes and what is replaced is a fervor of positive and optimistic thinking that everything will be fine. Be prepared dear ones for anything, and you will benefit when all commotion has settled. 

Make the changes you bring about become a necessary instrument for your growth to help better yourself. Allow the approaching changes gauge your journey and direct which course you are going to take that resonates with your spiritual heart. Recognize which areas in your life that would benefit most with changes. We ask you to try to visualize possible outcomes knowing already that there is an infinite amount of possibilities. When you visualize you can add possible obstacles and the methods you would use to diffuse the obstacle efficiently and effectively. By visualizing possibilities, you provide yourself with certain knowledge on how to fix any problem that may come your way instead of trying to correct your symptom to the problem. 
 
Remember dear ones, the changes you make are partnered with your choices and will have a great effect on your health, your home and work life. As you bring in positive changes to your life, treat your Self with compassion and love. Your body is your temple. Nourish this temple with sustenance that is pure and untainted. When you are able to Unconditionally Love your whole Self, then you will be able to Unconditionally Love all others. Bringing change doesn’t begin with any other person but you. Recognize and admit that change is necessary and will promote positive growth in all areas of your incredible journey. 
 
When positive change and HOW you react to change is balanced and you are living from a peaceful state, the love that is your life will blossom into new levels that were not there before. Within relationships, sometimes changes can seem quite drastic to the other person. Introduce changes slowly and include the other person or people that are closest to you. You cannot force your beliefs on others, but by including them, and through your peaceful but active demonstrations that radiate Love and Light, they will see the changes you bring are good. 
 
This is one area which we encourage you to “expect” and that is change. Expect changes because they are relevant and always occurring. Remember your journey never stops changing – embrace each change and rejoice in the unknown, even if the unknown brings unexpected changes to current situations. Teach yourself how to cope positively and always be prepared. There is nothing in your journey to regret as each step you take is filled with endless learning opportunities and each one is helping to develop and redevelop you into the beautiful being you are constantly becoming. 
 
And so it is…

Being a Self-Reliant Independent Thinker
Ascended Master, Serapis Bey’s Weekly Message ~ May 10 – 17, 2013
 
Dearest Children of God, as you learn to rely on yourself you discover you are able to bring forth the strength needed to stamp out any of your day-to-day challenges. At a young age, as children the teachings many of you have received surround learning how to problem solve, discovering a workable resolution that is filled with positive energy. As young children, learning to be self-reliant helps to develop Inner Strength and to create Self-Reliance as a productive personal trait and skill. Even as a child who has been learning to rely on themselves for simple problem solving, they are nurturing themselves and creating at the same time great coping skills and enhancing healthy confidence that will lead them to fine-tuning their survival skills for daily life and challenges as they mature and grow into adults. 
 
The era which you are now maneuvering in is filled with instant satisfaction, and quick fixes to solve challenges. We have observed many dear souls quickly and readily medicating themselves and their families to fix certain vulnerabilities that 10 or 20 years ago didn’t require so much pharmaceutical fixing. Yes we do see many dear souls being more aware of themselves and the global world around them, but we also witness many have become less able to rely on themselves and more extrinsically dependent. 
 
Relying on yourself dear ones permits your Self to fight any crisis that may cross your path with the heart and courage of a lion. One that is Self-Reliant, even when facing discouraging obstacles will reach down and bring forth more power, more courage and strength that will enable them to continue the battle until all is complete. Rarely dear ones, an individual that is self-reliant will use medications or drugs of any kind to enhance their own coping skills. What these people do is inspire themselves, reaffirm to themselves the importance of the current challenge, and sometimes with their head held high they seek non-judgemental people for support, and many times Divine Guidance for peace building resolutions. 
 
The more you become self-reliant, you will discover and learn more about who you are. You will see before you with little digging, what your strengths and weaknesses are. After a little self-exploration you will come to know yourself better and learn how to strengthen any weaknesses and make the most of your strengths. A dear soul that demonstrates Self-Reliance is silently telling those that recognize this trait that they are an Independent Thinker – they are confident to make their own decision without input coming from another. 
 
Independent Thinkers are always mature and have the ability to create more happiness through self-satisfaction and from their own efforts they will feel freer as they have not conformed to someone else’s perception or way of thinking. Over time each of you have conformed to one person or another beginning as a young child when you Mother or Father told you to do something. Even though you are all grown adults, many of you are still under some form of control; we see this daily from the clothes you purposely choose, how you decorate your home, the books you read, etc., has helped form your way of thinking and being. 
 
Dear ones, we ask you to be honest with yourself, “How often do you seek another person’s suggestion instead of trusting your own initiative?” or “Can you only make a decision after you read something clever written in a book or viewed in your media source?” As Independent Thinkers, you are well informed, mature and educated enough to make clear, concise and rational choices on your own. Self-Reliant individuals instantly understands the responsibility of their decisions and of their actions – they have learned to trust themselves and in the Love they receive from God that has supported each step they have taken. 
 
It is crucial to begin learning self-reliance early in your life journey. As children, those not taught to be more self-reliant have lower self-esteem and because they are not supported to hone this necessary skill, these beautiful children are less confident and their success rate to become a higher achiever is dramatically lowered. Providing children with luxuries doesn’t teach them how to be self-reliant. It is vitally important to motivate and inspire young minds, instead of fostering laziness and the idea everything will be given to them. 
 
Even as mature adults there are always ways to bring in more positive change that will influence your own ability to be self-reliant and more capable of handling your own issues and dilemmas. On the road to strengthening this skill you will discover where you need to make necessary adjustments and re-strengthen your Faith and build up your courage because the dear soul that is self-reliant understands what it means to face fears – they do this head on and there is little to no procrastination. 
 
As you progress more into being an Independent Thinker, you will learn to pay less attention to what others are thinking and more attention to what is important to you, what your heart is drawing you to. Explore yourself dear ones and truly know what your fundamental values are, restructure them if necessary and begin to trust your intuition more. The more you trust yourself and become more confident you will see yourself being able to make better decisions without the need of other people’s influence. You are doing the work, applying the effort to learn what is needed and from what you discover you make your decision and you trust what you find through your gift of intuition. The more apt you become at relying on yourself and being an independent thinker the higher your confidence goes and this dear ones removes yourself from being dependent on others to think for you. 
 
When you are more Self-Reliant you will recognize a new you beginning to emerge – one who is more emotionally strong and capable. Good emotional strength dear ones will develop strong independence that will carry you through many tough storms. If a dear soul tends to be emotionally insecure, they often will withdraw themselves from being accountable for their efforts and actions. It is understood the more emotional energy a dear soul has, a higher and more optimistic attitude is revealed. 
 
This is your journey dear ones. Each part of it you are accountable for. We encourage you to be in control of your life and journey. Realize the importance to build and maintain the energy required to meet all your needs as well as within your new Self-Reliant skill. As you are able to see your growth and development from all the hard work you have applied on your own, a great feeling of peace and self-satisfaction will fill your entire being with a profound calmness that was never there before. Give yourself the essential tools to further your journey’s growth and development. You have what you need already; it’s all right there inside of you. 
 
When you know how to be Self-Reliant dear ones you will know true freedom as you become your own Person. 
 
And so it is…

Try not to sit too long and find yourself procrastinating. Nothing gets done while you sit and just think about it. Yes, you need to make progressive plans, but it’s important not to remain in the thinking stage too long. No matter what goals you have in-store for yourself to achieve, you will not greet their completion by remaining stuck in the thinking mode. Your journey is in the NOW dear ones, the more you delay reaching your goals, the farther away you become from reaching them. Your journey as you are well aware of is filled with many choices. Even when you have decided to make a plan for yourself to reach a certain goal, you have a choice to find an easy process or one that requires more depth and possibly take long to complete. Of course, it is easy to be swayed to an easier route, but it’s through the path that is filled with more depth and challenges that you gain the most valuable lessons. Every time you choose the harder path you are helping to create and further develop your own personal excellence and this leads into increasing your confidence, self-esteem, and contentment of who you are and what you have accomplished through your love-inspired efforts.

Thank you Serapis Bey and Julie!

The IMPOSSIBLE is ACHIEVABLE
Ascended Master, Serapis Bey’s Weekly Message ~ April 26 – May 03, 2013
 
Your dreams will remain dreams if you don’t allow yourself to fully awaken and go through the necessary steps that would bring those dreams into reality. When you set out to accomplish a specific task dear ones, you are not only just getting the job done, you are putting your best efforts into every aspect because you have envisioned a fantastic outcome as a result.
 
When you set in motion the procedural steps towards achieving personal excellence, what you are truly doing dear ones is achieving something no one else has and to grow into the true being that is found and discovered through purposeful self-improvements where you are making your dreams a reality, one step at a time. Your dreams come into accomplished reality when you excel through the targets you have set for yourself, the process to which will bring you to what you have been focusing on in the purest of your intent.
 
When you are working towards achieving something that is big, you also need to think and envision big. The goals you set for your Self need to be able to propel and encourage you more than any other mundane goals. Any goal that was easy to reach didn’t help you deepen and further develop your skills and talents. When you are working towards achieving something big --your focus that includes your whole self: body, mind, soul and heart will provide you with all the energy and strength to endure all challenges and make your goals and dreams possible.
 
It is imperative dear ones while working at achieving the goals you have set out for yourself to not become overly attached to their result. As many of you know, attachments hold heavy energy and carry disappointment if tasks and goals are not completed within a certain amount of time or if there were troubling issues that needed sorting out first. Always be prepared for ANY outcome that may arise with positive enthusiasm and embrace in the spiritual growth you gained during the steps you took towards completion of any goal or task. Nothing is ever thought as a waste by us, your Spirit Guides, and we encourage each of you to develop this positive way of thinking as well. It is too easy to become disheartened when the steps towards accomplishing certain goals become hard and seemingly unreachable. Remain focused, taking one step at a time. Believe in yourself; your whole self and know deep inside your heart that because of all the great love-filled efforts you applied, you will succeed. You will experience an uplift on your own ability to be patient and tolerant with yourself.
 
Remember dear ones, there is not one single person who is perfect that shares the beautiful Earth you call home. When someone declares themselves as perfect, they are basically telling you they have reached the end of their ability to increase their knowledge, to grow in wisdom from the information they acquired through actual experiences –-they are demonstrating someone with a limiting attitude and this dear ones is not how it really is. No one is perfect, as we have said. There is always room to enhance and further develop certain skills into mastery and improve your overall life. We urge each of you to continue cultivating the necessary life skills that will provide a great usefulness on your spiritual journey –-welcome any criticism because those words are just words …words and in them are lessons that are presented to you to encourage you to come home to more of your True Self.
 
Prepare yourself for not always succeeding every adventure at the first try. Many dear souls quit as soon as the level of difficulty is raised and the challenge to complete the task at-hand becomes a stumbling block. Use that built-in determination to persevere and continue at a pace that is good for you; One that is not too fast or too slow, but one that is controllable. This is YOUR journey, it is up to you dear ones to learn through all your trials and errors how to proceed. We have seen so many lose precious Faith when they stumble one too many times. Try to always remember when you are feeling overwhelmed by the responsibility before you... KNOW you are not alone! Share your worries and concerns with others, and with the many spiritual guides that walk with you. Remain grounded and find ways that help maintain your inner balance and peace of mind. Your journey is not meant to be complicated; You have the ability to simplify everything just by changing your thought forms. Don’t worry about where other people are on their journey; Their journey is unique from yours. You will reach every outcome when you are meant to, just believe dear ones in your Self and hold on to Faith, she will never let your down.

 
Your actions are your responsibility. What you say, think, feel, and do is accountable by YOU. We so often witness other dear souls judging one another for their own personal failures, then give credit to those that haven’t quite experienced life. Your failures and our accomplishments are yours --and yours alone. All that you have achieved, you did so from hard work and great effort. Yes dear ones, all people of all kinds do play an important role in your life. Each person that crosses your path are there for specific reasons related to your spiritual growth and development. Even though they may not be fully aware of their purpose while they are interacting with you, remember all is an opportunity for growth and learning. Through every interaction you will discover the areas you need to work on, and areas that you have excelled in; There is so much for you to explore dear ones and all is for the betterment of your own development.
 
Try not to sit too long and find yourself procrastinating. Nothing gets done while you sit and just think about it. Yes, you need to make progressive plans, but it’s important not to remain in the thinking stage too long. No matter what goals you have in-store for yourself to achieve, you will not greet their completion by remaining stuck in the thinking mode. Your journey is in the NOW dear ones, the more you delay reaching your goals, the farther away you become from reaching them.
 
Your journey as you are well aware of is filled with many choices. Even when you have decided to make a plan for yourself to reach a certain goal, you have a choice to find an easy process or one that requires more depth and possibly take long to complete. Of course, it is easy to be swayed to an easier route, but it’s through the path that is filled with more depth and challenges that you gain the most valuable lessons. Every time you choose the harder path you are helping to create and further develop your own personal excellence and this leads into increasing your confidence, self-esteem, and contentment of who you are and what you have accomplished through your love-inspired efforts.
 
When you see yourself targeting to achieve something bigger than materialistic goods and assets, then you begin growing the attitude that the impossible is achievable. We don’t encourage you to chase success, but to steer towards the excellence that is followed by success. Personal and Spiritual growth truly is a habit that has been learned and applied from daily consistent routines. There will come a time when you won’t have to look at a chart or try to remember various steps to what is to come next, you will just know what to do automatically.
 
Humility is an important aspect to the development of your Self. We still observe many dear souls that truly believe they are above learning and there is nothing that can be added to improve their life. There is always room dear ones, no matter what you have gleaned from all the cleverly written books you have read. When you truly believe there is more for you to learn, even from the smallest of pebble to the tiniest microorganism you will enable yourself to grow in all ways spiritually that will affect your life personally. Every day you change, nothing remains exactly as it was, there is always a difference and through each difference there is the potential to learn and to become more of your true self each and every day.
 
Being optimistic about your journey is necessary as it keeps open positive lines of communication and your ability to send and receive Light and Love energy from God. But when your optimistic nature becomes too much, your necessary and critical thinking process becomes disturbed. When your optimism becomes extreme in your thinking patterns, you will discover it impossible to recognize any amount of negativity that came from certain thoughts and ideas and it is necessary dear ones for you to be able to be aware of your thoughts when they change.
 
It’s important dear ones to have a focus on this journey and remain steady on the goals you have set out for your Self. There are many distractions only too willing to derail you and affect your ability of successfully reaching your goals. Even if your goal takes long for you to reach, never give up on the dream of fulfilling this goal. Each step is one step closer; Hope is always there with you, encouraging you to continue a little more. We already know how strong you are, it is up to you to believe this as truth.
 
And so it is…
