Living On Purpose

By Michelle Casto, guest blogger.

I love how the Divine speaks to me.

I had several people ask me, “What is this SHIFT I keep hearing about?”

I opened a book and received insight. This is an excerpt from Marianne Williamson, a luminary, and someone I have had the pleasure to spend a little time with personally, who I believe is such a blessing to us all.

This comes from her 1994 book Illuminata, and is in the very beginning in the chapter on Renaissance:

The antidote for what is fundamentally wrong is the cultivation of what is fundamentally right.

Should we choose to expand who we are on a fundamental level, new structures will replace the casualties of pre-millenial disintegration, and the next twenty years will usher in an age of light more dazzling than the world has ever known.

….Ultimately, the choice to love each other is the only choice for a survivable future. The meek shall inherit the earth because everyone else will have died upon their swords.

…The opening of the heart is an awesome personal politic, providing us with an internal strength greater than any worldly power.

As we receive God’s love and impart it to others, we are given the power to repair the world. We have begun to recognize that our individual minds create our collective realities, and we are taking more responsibility for the world by taking more seriously our individual contributions to it.

Personal transformation can and does have global effects. As we go, so goes the world, for the world is us. The revolution that will save the world is ultimately a personal one.

We are learning, loving, lighting, shifting, being, and maturing into our TRUE SELVES.

Williamson says, “We are looking not so much for more ground to conquer, but for a truer ground of being on which to stand inside ourselves. The most positive breakthroughs of our times are internal.

This history of the world is the history of control…. seizing someone’s soul is the ultimate form of control, because without soul we are without love. Without our love, we are without our power.”

So in my estimation, when each of us does what we each are called to do, in my case, free people’s souls from any imaginary form of imprisonment, then all those soul seeds start sprouting, and when the time is ripe, a new earth is born.

Be the change, says Gandhi.
When we change, the world changes. So Be this.

I led a class on this recently and I would like to gift you with the replay info:   Just dial in and you will hear the 60 minute call.
