How to Grow and Maintain Courage
Ascension Symptoms Monitor for June 3rd, 2020

When I asked the Cosmic Light Collective to talk about courage last week, I had no idea that in a few days, every American would be challenged to stand up, stand for, and stand by the right to live safely and with respect in this country. The coronavirus has exposed deep and profound wounds that can be healed because moments of profound change are at hand.  It is time for the courageous of every race and faith to not only listen to each other but to act as one. Only together will we understand the power of redemptive grace and discover what it means to thrive.  I decided to transcribe last week’s channeled message on courage because I believe it will guide us to become the miracle makers we are now called to be.

You erupt from the birth canal having a courageous experience.  Courage begins with your first breath and another level of courage begins with your last breath.  Courage is with you constantly.  It is a recognition of the power to experience the fullness of life.  Courage doesn’t run away from life.  Courage runs into life however it finds it, with whomever or whatever happens to be there at the same time.  

Courage is thoughtful, but not analytical.  It has a spontaneity to it.  You never know when your next courageous moment will be.  You can’t, because you don’t know what is coming around the corner that is going to require you to throw yourself into life as you have never thrown yourself into life before. The courage of which we are speaking is courage for living. Courage is about unfolding life.  It is not about the courage to kill another.  It is about the courage to live with each other.  To understand what life truly means and to expand the expression of life force wherever you find it, that my dear beings, is courage.

Courage has many faces because running into life has millions of expressions.  Release your expectations of what you think courage should look like or has looked like.  Be willing to entertain that courage when you fling yourself into the best that life has to offer.  Right now, each human being on the planet has the opportunity to courageously throw themselves into life in ways they have never done before, to feel the power of life force and its capacity to create beauty, health, harmony, abundance, and goodness. Feel the power of that and know that in your courageous actions little-by-little, day-by-day, step-by-step, life gets fuller.  Life gets better.  Life gets stronger.  And how do you maintain courage?  You live courageously every day.  You understand what it means, how it works, and why it is so important.

When you combine that courageous living with a compassionate heart, well now, that’s when miracles happen.  That’s when tremendous change erupts.  And no, it didn’t happen overnight.  It happened a long time in the making.  Each of you have had miraculous moments, and if you track the miracle of the moment back into your lives, you’ll find that connecting the dots takes you to a profound moment.  Whether it was depressing or enlivening, it was a profound moment that began the journey to your miracle. The courageous compassionate heart has vision, but not expectations. They are so very, very, different. A visionary heart is free.  A heart full of expectations is already trapped.  The courageous fly into life, run into life, jump into life, thoughtfully and purposefully, and when done with compassion, openly.  The wonder of courage leads to the miraculous.  The wonders of courage lead to the miraculous.  And that too is your birthright. 

The Bounce Back Book: How to thrive in the face of adversity, setbacks, and losses, written by Karen Salmansohn is filled with techniques and simple strategies to keep your cool while staying focused in troubling times. It is a handy tool to have at your disposal on difficult days.  And it is filled with humor to make the hard workflow more gracefully.

I invite you to join me in creating a Planetary Intention Journal for the last six months of 2020. In this, the 8th year of the unfolding New Civilization of Peace, chaotic transformation is emerging in every aspect of our lives. Writing down daily intentions for the wellbeing of all life on the planet not only cuts through the chaos, it helps us to define clear paths through it.  It only takes a minute or so to write a sentence full of hope on a piece of paper. But the energy that rises off that paper can change the course of life for so many others over time.  I look forward to rereading this journal on January 1st of 2032 to see how many of those intentions have touched the world.

I am eager to join our energies together this evening as we send healing and the power of peace into our nation and our world.  I honor the courage living within you and look forward to how it manifests through you.  Talk to you soon!
