The following is taken from Agape’s newsletter. It’s wonderfully inspiring for all of us…

Rev. Michael Beckwith says that when you talk about what you can’t afford you are actually blaspheming God. He says the only thing you can’t afford is the luxury of a negative thought! (You’ve probably heard it before, but it bears repeating.) Beyond that, there is nothing that you can’t afford.

Here’s what you can afford! You can afford to pay attention to the new ideas that are coming forth through and as your true nature. You can afford to live your life fully, joyfully and completely.

You can afford to be compassionate, patient, forgiving and caring.

You can afford to be gracious, understanding, kind and generous. That’s right.

This only appears to be a dog-eat-dog, might-makes-right, my-way-or-the-highway kind of world. In fact, or in truth, it’s not the ‘world’ you’re living in! You live in a Universe that is friendly and supportive. Don’t believe me?

Bring your attention back to the Presence and see how It attunes you to Its vibration.

See how your Universe opens up for giving and receiving. See how your experience becomes an adventure in opportunities where you have nothing to lose, and everything to gain and to give.

You can afford the energy to exercise, excel and express.

You can explore, exalt and expand your horizons by enrolling in one of the exhilarating classes offered by the Agape University of Transformational Studies and Leadership.

The Rev says that a lie believed acts as a law until it is neutralized.

You are not too poor to pay attention to that which is real.

Neutralize the negative by accentuating the positive.

Say, “I stand in the awareness of plenitude. Life is for me.

I evict the thought that anything can be against me!!

I accept the thought that everything is working together for my good now!!”

Now you’re talking! Watch how what you affirm and accept for yourself becomes your life experience.

Where God left off, is  with brilliance, greatness and more-than-enough-ness poised to express as you.

Accept only suggestions of truth. Then go forth and multiply the consciousness. Or, as Rev. Michael puts it, “Run tell that!”

If you’ve yet to experience Agape, learn about this fabulous place of inspiration and truth.

It might be just what you  need to stay focused on and connected to your Higher Power in this world.

MAKE THE BEST USE OF YOUR TIME.

When we waste time, it causes us to look back on the year and wonder why

we don’t feel fulfilled or have the love, connections or career we want.

Time is precious. We don’t get wasted time back.

Figure out and decide what you really want. What is really important to you?

Do you want more time with friends? More time for self-care?

How about spending more time getting in tune with honesty?

Do you want to travel? Spend your time in an inspiring relationship?

Realize what it is you want to have in your life, then  make choices that move you closer to that.

Notice how you feel in each moment. We create our future in our moment to moment life from how we are feeling in each moment.

This is how you can tell if it feels right to stay in a situation or conversation; and when it’s time to move on.

And, as you get in touch with what you want, you can simply ask for it in your relationships, in your work, etc.

Rather than filling  your life with shoulds and supposed to’s, make the best use of your time and fill your life with all of what you want to have by making the best use of your precious time.

In the early 1990′s, Dr. Candice Pert made an amazing discovery that tells you exactly why you manifest abundance, health, relationships, etc., or why you do not.

While Dr. Pert was the chief molecular biologist for the National Institutes of Health she discovered that your thoughts are real, physical things. Your thoughts become molecules the instant you think them and, as a deliberate attractor, you need to know how those molecules interact with your body.

Every time you have a thought, your hypothalamus (a “control center” near the base of your brain) transforms that thought into millions of neuropeptides (amino acids) which represent the dominant emotion associated with that thought. Your thought becomes a molecular messenger of emotion! And then your bloodstream is flooded with these neuropeptides.

When in your bloodstream, these neuropeptides, into which your thought transformed, actually insert themselves into your cells. Each neuropeptide interlocks with a special receptacle (made just for it) on your cell’s membrane – just like a lock fitting into a keyhole. And then that amino acid is absorbed by your cell.

Over time, Dr. Pert found, your cells develop more and more special receptacles for the neuropeptides to which they are most exposed. And over time your cells create a self-fulfilling emotional prophecy for you. Your cells begin to crave the neuropeptides to which they are most exposed (and have built all the receptacles for) and they “tell” your hypothalamus to produce them.

Your cells love neuropeptides so much that they cover their membranes with nothing but receptacles for them. Actually shutting down other vital functions, your cells become nothing but vessels for these neuropeptides. They become like a drug addict, who abandons family, jobs, friends, and personal wellbeing as she chases the drug.

The only way your hypothalamus can produce the neuropeptides craved by your cells, is for your brain to experience the emotions which will create them. And the only way your brain can experience the emotions necessary to create those neuropeptides is for it to create a reality which will elicit those emotions.

Your body has, literally, become physically addicted to certain emotional states. And, having nothing to do with whether those emotional states feel good or bad, your cells now need them like an addict needs drugs.

So if you’ve spent years thinking, “People don’t like me,” “I’m useless,” “I can’t do that,” or “I’m not very smart,” you’ve physically addicted your body, on a cellular level, to the neuropeptides which represent shame, guilt, unworthiness, and/or self-doubt. And the same goes for any emotion you’ve dominantly exposed to your cells. Your cells have become addicted to those neuropeptides and are asking for them all day, every day.

And since you already know that “reality” is completely subjective based on the expectations of the observer, (what you are choosing to see) you can see how easy it is for you to create a reality that causes those emotions your cells are craving.

You can create any reality you choose and your cells are dictating what reality you will see.

You can begin to learn to actively change these thought patterns by simply by appreciating the things you’re already doing and then begin to feel and realize just how much more value they hold for you.

I can help you with the things you don’t know how to do to make the transistion from where you are to where you want to be.

The main thing to keep in mind, is to do your best to keep yourself in balance.

One of the biggest causes of us getting into energy misalignment, is putting too much pressure on ourselves with our time and efforts.

When you burn the candle at both ends and become physically and mentally tired,

it’s can be a challenge to feel cheerful and maintain a positive attitude.

Feeling happy is essential to keeping yourself in vibrational alignment with your good.

Your rule to follow is:

Be happy and do what you realistically have time to do.

First, you have peace of mind, then this  brings in the prosperity.

I know it seems that having prosperity will bring peace of mind,

of course it does.

However, first we create a feeling of peace of mind,

then that state of mind and those emotions….

allows the prosperity and abundance to come in.

The next new moon forms on Saturday, October 17 (It’s on my birthday!!!) at 10:33 PM PDT at 25º Libra, the sign of balance, partnership, and peace. From an evolutionary point of view, the zodiacal signs are not so much who we are, but what we are becoming – the core curriculum and challenges we have chosen in this lifetime. This New Moon offers an opportunity to resolve individual and collective issues that we have been struggling with for a long time. The archetype of Libra seeks to recognize, tolerate, and eventually integrate what seems to be its opposite. It endeavors to establish equal relationships without compromising one’s essential self and values.

Libra also reminds us that peace is an inside job, that the more we know and accept ourselves, the more understanding and compassion we can have for others.

Libra symbolizes the scales of justice, equality, and truth; Saturn, the realities of time and space, cause and effect, law and order. Saturn, the mythic Reaper and Father Time, will be highlighting the sign of Libra for the next three years, as it makes its once-every-three-decades foray into the seventh sign. Saturn enters Libra on October 29, where it remains until October 5, 2012 (except for a brief retrograde in Virgo from April 7 to July 21, 2010). Saturn’s last passage through Libra was from September 21, 1980 to August 24, 1983. During that period, the United Nations General Assembly called for Soviet troop withdrawal from Afghanistan; a United States congressional committee formally condemned the internment of Japanese-Americans duringWorld War II; the oldest college in Cambridge, England voted to admit female students; Sandra Day O’Connor became the first female U.S. Supreme Court judge; Jesse Jackson was the first black man to address the Alabama legislature; and Guion Bluford became the first black astronaut. That period also saw the launch of IBM’s PC (personal computer), the CD (compact disc), MTV, and camcorders; the release of the film Gandhi; and the Voyager I space probe’s first photos of Saturn.

Saturn’s upcoming passage through Libra will again bring to the fore issues of fairness, justice, and progress.

On an individual level, this means examining our patterns in relationships, questioning the roles we play, and renegotiating or completing contracts we have made.

Saturn demands that we let go of playing victim or dominator and work toward a win-win solution. On a social and political level, Saturn in Libra supports teamwork, reconciliation, and equal rights legislation.

What agreements or roles need to be examined? Where have things gotten out of balance? What needs to be renegotiated?

For helpful tools, study Marshall Rosenberg’s book Nonviolent Communication, and/or If the Buddha Dated, and If the Buddha Married, by Charlotte Kastl.

When in doubt, listen to and speak from your heart, for: “The mind is the last part of yourself to listen to. It thinks of everything you can lose. The heart thinks of everything you can give, and the soul thinks of everything you are.” (Neale Donald Walsch)

From the messages recieved by Wendy Kennedy @ HigherFrequencies.net

“Your personal power is yours to access. The only one who limits you is always you. You are existing in a free will zone. All that occurs does so with your willing approval.

Hard to believe you would agree to so much strife, but never the less, a true statement. Strife is stretching. It is expansion and growth. It is a cue card in dimensions of duality for movement. So embrace the experience.

The stifling of personal power comes when you don’t move, when you freeze with fear. Indecision can be one of your greatest challenges to overcome. For any decision will move you along a new path.

Guilt and regret keep you from moving.

Movement comes with the recognition of emotions and the acknowledgement of experience.

When you recognize the blocks you dissolve them by your mere viewing and acceptance of your part in creation.

By acknowledging you have created, you fully embrace your personal power.

The more frequently you recognize that, the more fully you stand in your own light.”

Everything in life has a vibration to it. It has an energy to it.

This is scientifically proven and is a basic law of our universe.

Our thoughts and our feelings also have an energy to them

and a frequency that they vibrate out into life.

Negative thoughts and emotions have a very different frequency

to them than thoughts and feelings that are positive, light and feel good.

The energy and vibration of  optimism brings magic to

manifesting what you desire.

In pessimism there is all the stuff that you don’t want.

In our positive expectations there is the energy

that feels thrilling,exciting and brings success to us.

Opportunites, people and amazing happenings happens in this energy,

from this vibratory rate.

Whatever it is that you do focus your attention on, you’ll receive that.

It makes sense to focus on what you want, on the positive even

if that requires us to go into our imagination and imagine something positive.

The mind doesn’t know the difference, so go ahead…

imagine while you go about the actions behind the desire and

bring it in to your life now.

I know, it sounds a little like Thanksgiving…and, that is exactly the idea here.
Are you interested in prosperity?
Are you wanting to be tuned-in to having and living a wealthy life. ..
wealth with your health, your finances, relationships, career, fun, playtime and passions?

Each new day is an opportunity to give a thank -you to life

and to express all that you do appreciate and are grateful for in your life.

Guess what this expression of gratitude does for you?

It sends a vibration out into the universe to attract MORE good to you.

MORE for you to be happy about, to appreciate and to be grateful for.

I know that I certainly love this and how it works!

How about you? Are you in?

What are you grateful for?

What do you appreciate having in your life right now…

before getting  anything else, what are you happy about right now?

Start your day with 5 things you are grateful for and appreciate.
End your day with 5 more. Add to this each day.

You’ll see more and more amazing and wonderful things show up in your life…
people, opportunities, shifts within yourself, growth, love, happiness,
inspiration, motivation, prosperity…and much more.

So….what are you grateful for?

What you think and feel sets in motions a frequency, a vibration that echos out unto all of existence; out into the universe.

This frequency (or vibration) attracts in to you, the equivalent (equal vibration) to what your thinking and feeling.

Think of a radio and the dials that you use to tune into each individual station. When you tune in (match up) to the exact frequency (station location,   i.e., 98.2  or 109.9) you get linked into that channel (radio station frequency).

If you want the” prosperity, happiness” channel,  avoid tuning into the station of “I don’t have,” or the station of, “I can’t have,” or the station of “I’m a victim; it’s their/his/her fault” or  the station of “anger, fear and resentment,” etc.

How do you tune into the prosperity and happiness channel, for example?

Think, feel and do prosperity. Spend the most time you can, feeling happy and grateful.

Think and feel joyful, contented thoughts, while you go about the physical actions of moving toward what you want to have. Literally act as if you are already prosperous, successful and  happy.

The mind does not know if something is actually going on or if your imagining it. Your mind responds the same, exact way to what is actually taking place or to what you are imagining in the moment.

It cannot differentiate between the two. Go into your imagination and imagine, (pretend) how you want things to be for yourself. You then have the opportunities to have these things show up. You are not going to get happiness or prosperity  feeling like crap, being unhappy, angry, disappointed, bummed out, being a victim, blaming others, or complaining.

Set your frequency, your vibratory rate to tune into and match up to the station that feels good

Spend your time doing what you enjoy and feel happy as much as possible. This attracts the same likeness to you. Money is energy. Prosperity is energy. Everything is a vibration in the universe. Everything vibrates at a different level, attracting the same vibratory likeness to it.

Prosperity feels good. Feel good and you attract it in.

You feel it first, then it comes in. It isn’t the other way around. It might seem that as if we get money, then we feel good and happy, however, it comes from feeling it first (while you go about the right actions and thoughts to bring it in).

Do whatever you can to feel good and to think positively as much of the time as possible. This sets up the right frequency to attract iin what you want. Continue to go about your work, allowing it to come to you.

Be unwilling to spend your time feeling uncomfortable.
