Blocked?

Until we enter that zone, we are blocked, for God cannot do in us what he cannot do thru us.

To say he has the solutions for our problems is to say he has a plan for the changes each of us need to go thru in order to become the people thru whom he can bring forth the solutions.
The most important factor for determining what will happen in our world is what you decide to let happen within you.
Every circumstance -- no matter how painful -- is a gauntlet thrown down by the universe, challenging us to become who we are capable of being. Our task, for our own sakes, and for the sake of the entire world, is to do so.

Yet for us to become who we most deeply want to be - we must look at who we are now- even when we don't see doesn't please us. This moment is driving us to face every issue we have ever avoided facing, compelling us to get to some rock-bottom, essential truth about ourselves whether we like what we see there or not.

And until we make the breakthrough in ourselves, there will be no fundamental breakthru in the world. The world we see reflects the people we've become, and if we do not like what we see in the world, we must face what we don't like in ourselves. Having done so, we will move thru our personal darkness to the light that lies beyond. We will embrace the light and extend the light.

And as we change, the world will change with us...
