Christmas Cancelled

Hold on. No, it’s not what you think. But if you keep on reading, you will gain an idea of the miracle of the map granted by God (The Treasure Map).

You see, at the beginning of December I decided to complete The Christmas Challenge, via the Truforgiveness process. And so, I got completing this course for I was seeking a change of direction.

Do not allow how the ego seeks to run the show to be your own. For concealed deep within is all the divine guidance that you seek. That wants to make happy and healthy your dream in time.

Mid-December I cancelled Christmas lunch. I was not feeling it. I did not want to spend the day stressed serving others. I needed a break. Then sadness grew within. The day would be filled with depression. How could this be, especially after I had cleaned within with Truforgiveness? Truly praying to remove the guilt to allow grace to be made welcome. It certainly seemed Christmas would be lonely this year. I continued to truly forgive the ego limitations that had been placed upon my mind that surrounds Christmas. 

This year I learned to forget the Christmas the ego had taught and to follow the light of love within, that grants the good and great dream in time. By cleaning up what I think about Christmas, a new vision of Christmas was presented.

Well, a few days before Christmas I woke with an idea. I would grab some takeaway on Christmas Eve, from my favorite restaurant, and ordered a delicious lemon cheesecake from a luxe shop in Sydney. I had a plan, and it was divinely inspired. Now, because I had truly prayed with The Treasure Map, I was being answered. I then had the idea to take mom to the movies, something she loves to do. Would the cinema be opened on Christmas Day? As it turns out, it is. And so, I booked us in for her something she adores; a rom-com.

The day is almost over for me now, and what a miraculous day I have had. For I was in the flow. In spirit. I did not do the traditional Christmas feast that I once knew. I have found another way to celebrate Christmas. Just with the ones that I love. 

The day started early with a walk. Then the normal household chores – cleaning and washing – followed by breakfast at the beach with my mom. I watched her open her presents, grateful that I can return the favour to her, from all the years she once would spoil me. We made our way to the cemetery to pay respects to dad. By midday, my mother needed to rest, and so I went for a quick dip in the turquoise sea. It was then movie time, followed by the fab food I picked up yesterday, and then cake and candy. No cooking or cleaning from a large celebration.

I get it, some of you would not like the day that I have had. You might be thinking that it is a gift to serve others. And it is. But from where I sit, and what I have been through, I needed a day of rest and relaxation. And this is gratefully what I received. After I had forgiven within, to change my mind from the wrong to the right.

You see, when you truly forgive you open your mind. And by changing what you think within it corrects the picture in time. Which is what has happened to me this year. And I sit here now ever-so-grateful, for I never knew such greatness existed in this manner, on this day. For this day has been filled with so much love, which is what Christmas is about. In fact, I told my mother only a few hours ago that this was the best Christmas that I have had. And that is vast, considering my dad is not with us in form.

I remember years ago, even surrounded by many people, feeling so low and lonely on Christmas. My day today has been filled with peace and love. I cherished the time with mom, knowing that I do not know how many Christmases we will get in this lifetime.

Because I truly prayed for true healing with Christmas, I was shown another way. I have been so calm today. This is the first time that I have picked up the computer to be working on my business. Something that I find difficult to be dragged away from.

I hope you have had a great Christmas today. Wherever you are, whatever you are doing, I am sending my love. Put God first and all else will follow. For God knows the light you seek. In my case, it was to no longer be a slave, and instead to have peace and not problems.

Merry Christmas to you and your family. 

To Jesus… Happy birthday. Thank you for being great. 

Much love, peace, and Truforgiveness,
