To doubt yourself is to doubt the wisdom and viability of the human design. To fully trust in God you must also trust in yourself. Remember, no one is created without everything required to make correct and righteous decisions.
Rapid Change
Discernment, or the process by which we evaluate situations and make decisions, is a critical aspect of our growth, our spiritual development, and our ability to create communities that contribute to our collective well-being. There are many indications that the world is experiencing rapid change and a profound transformation. This process, which has been ongoing for many years, has initiated a period of change not experienced at any previous time in our past history. This period of change and transformation will lead to a new level of civilization, and a move to a fifth-dimensional planet.
Moving to a new way of living cannot be achieved without acquiring a new level of thinking and a higher consciousness. Developing a higher consciousness is accomplished by using both our rational thinking skills and our intuitions, or that which we feel and know without subjecting it to rational tests. We must rethink our beliefs, purposes, priorities, and patterns of behaviour. We need to move to new levels of discernment.
Trusting Ourselves
Discernment is the ability to make discriminations, to make choices, and to make decisions. It is also the art of asking sensitive questions of ourselves and others in order to see deeper meanings and implications. The process of discernment involves four interrelated processes : perception, intuition, decision-making, and action. The core of each of these processes is comprised of trust in ourselves, faith in our Creator, and love, which is the energy that helps us expand our consciousness.
Discernment begins with perception, or the mind-set we use to view ourselves and the world we experience. Our experiences in the world shape our perceptions and beliefs. Our world view is a combination of our inner reality, or the ways in which we have internalized and used our experiences, and the realities of the external world. As we change and/or the world around us, we need to rethink our world view or mind-set.
Fundamental Changes
Today, as we are faced with ongoing change in every aspect of our lives, being aware of these changes becomes an important task in our survival and continued well-being. We see companies and organizations collapse because they have not been able to change their ways of thinking and behaving. Individuals experience frustration when they have not spent time anticipating changes and responding to the need for change.
The most fundamental changes are likely to occur in our spiritual views, as we move from self-consciousness to group-consciousness to soul-consciousness to God-consciousness. Our perceptions and our values change as we progress on our spiritual path. As we move through these stages, our consistent concerns are to move toward more complete identity with the Creator, greater trust in the Creator, and greater trust in ourselves -- that the decisions we make at any time are expressions of our free choice and perfect for our level of development. It is also important that we learn to discern what is helpful for our advancement and what is not helpful, so that the decisions we make can accelerate us on our paths.
Change in Perception
As individuals become more spiritual, their perceptions change. They drop their duality consciousness and begin to see the world in terms of lessons to be learned and tests designed to facilitate empowerment. This change in perception requires a strong sense of discernment, for we may be brought down many wrong alleys just because we have not learned the art of discernment. While no harm may come from making poor choices, poor decisions may make the journey more difficult. If our goal is to achieve a life of peace, harmony, abundance, and love as quickly as possible, then learning discernment and relying on our own inner judgement is essential to master.
