Fear is the root of all that binds and restricts potential good from coming to us.
Hate, lust, jealousy, discontent, doubt, envy, anger, judgement, controlling behaviors, lack of confidence, contempt - and all that is negative finds its source in fear and will manifest weakness in mind and body.
What you hold in another you hold in yourself. If your desire is freedom then you must free your brother as well. By your condemnation you both shall suffer. You are the only giver and receiver in your universe and giving and receiving are one.
The unnecessary suffering of this world as a whole and that of every nation, state, district, city, and individual finds its root cause in fear. Forgiveness through love is the only recourse. The remedy begins within the individual. Search your heart. Ask for guidance from the Helper to ferret out all that is impure within, forgiving your Self and the world your errors, that all might be forgiven and released.
"My function here is to forgive the world for all the errors I have made. For thus am I released from them with all the world. "
A Course In Miracles
In this, you shall find peace. In this, you shall find joy. In this, you shall true love. In this, you shall find your Self.

No Complaints
Cease your complaining and fretting; none of these things you blame are the cause of your poverty; the cause is within yourself, and where cause is, there is the remedy. The very fact that you are a complainer shows that you deserve your lot, shows that you lack the faith which is the ground of all effort and progress. There is no room for the complainer in a universe of law, and worry is soul-suicide. By your very attitude of mind you are strengthening the chains which bind you and are drawing about you the darkness by which you are enveloped. Alter your outlook look on life, and your outward life will alter.
James Allen
Forms of complaining are many and diverse, quite often having become habit - our default when a particular subject or circumstance arises. Take time to be aware of any that might be responsible for keeping you bound to your current experience. What steps might you put in place to correct them?

Effect of Thought
Every thought you think releases or condenses energy, through its action on your nerve centers. The cells in your body react to the frequency of every thought you think. Negativity will suppress the immune system and set up a body chemistry which in time will result in dis-ease. The frequency of positive uplifting thoughts will strengthen the immune system, promoting health, happiness and overall well being for all arenas of life.
"Disease and health , like circumstances, are rooted in thought. Sickly thoughts will express themselves through a sickly body. Strong, pure, and happy thoughts build up the body in vigor and grace. "
James Allen
The physical body is as plastic - able to be molded - and under constant change as determined by the mind whether knowingly or not. We are all familiar with the sayings of mind over matter, or, the body is the servant of the mind. This is an eternal principle, for the changeless, Spirit, shall always rule over the evolving.

Receive His Thanks
Many give thanks and praise to God and it is right to do so.

The Abundant Life Demands an Abundant Mind
In accordance with the principles upon which our universe is set, to experience a life of abundance we must have a proper mindset to support and attract it.
So how may we ensure we develop the proper thought structure to nurture a life of abundance?
First and foremost you must define what a life of abundance specifically means for you. This may sound like an obvious thing however few ever take the time to write out in detail exactly what abundance represents for them. You cannot develop a thought process around something unless you know what the something is. The clearer and more detailed the better - clarity with purpose.
Now that you have defined what an abundant life means for you, it is necessary to begin the process of identifying any limiting thoughts you may have in regard to your abundant life. Some will be immediately identifiable. Others, those blueprints which are concealed deep within the subconscience, will take more effort to reveal. Most of these are ideas, (blueprints), you adopted as true from authority figures in your life when you were young. These well meaning people, parents, teachers, etc, passed on their beliefs to you, both abundant and limiting. As a child you did not question. The result being many of these thoughts became habits well ingrained in your subconscious mind. They are still driving the results you are experiencing today. Many still serve you well - others do not. It is these others you need to replace with new blueprints which support the abundant life you wish to realize. It is through daily introspection and communion with spirit through meditation these things will be presented to you in their time. When they are, thank them for their service in the past. Let them know they are loved however you do not take ownership of them realizing they were someone else's idea which does not support your worthy ideals and free them from your mind.
Equally important is the forgiveness of those who introduced those limiting thoughts. Realize they were well intentioned passing on to you what they truly believed was true. Appreciate their efforts and be grateful for these people. Never judge nor condemn. This is not your purpose.
In developing your new blueprints supporting your abundant life it is important to develop new thought patterns promoting your definition of abundance. Developing these thought patterns is essential - more so than identifying limiting beliefs - in that these new thought patterns, once accepted, will absorb and dissipate many of the limiting beliefs whether identified or not. The most effective way to develop these thought patterns is through the use of an effective statement of intention reinforced with daily action steps, positive affirmations, and afformations. Each of these things must resonate well with you, being a little outside the box, however believable.
Also essential in attaining your life of abundance is a continual attitude of gratitude. Refuse to see lack or limitation in anything. Focus only on the abundance of things - the beauty in things. Realize there is always a positive aspect to every circumstance. Turn your thoughts toward finding it. Refuse to engage in conversation and thoughts of anger, hate, envy, and the like.
Lastly I will discuss self-talk. Many do not realize the importance the role of how you talk to yourself, those discussions you have with yourself in your mind, affects your physical experience. It is imperative you always talk to yourself in an honest and uplifting way. Honest positive self-talk goes a long way in keeping the channels of all that is good coming to you. Spend time each day investigating your self-talk. Is it serving you well, moving you forward? What tools might you put in place to ensure it does?
If you begin to implement some of these ideas today, even in a small way, you will begin to see changes in short order. Build on these changes. As your confidence grows you will attract and implement more positive thoughts adding to the process of continually moving toward your life of abundance as you have defined it.
You cannot fail.
You will become, you must become
Exactly what you think about

The True Measure of Forgiveness
The true measure of forgiveness is that it brings healing to yourself and your brother/sister. The true test is to attest that their sins have no effect on you to demonstrate they are not real. How else could you both be guiltless? How else could your innocence be justified?
Sins are beyond forgiveness because they entail effects which cannot be undone nor overlooked entirely. There undoing shows they were merely errors. Let yourself and your brother/sister be healed that you may be forgiving, offering salvation and healing to you both.
Forgiveness leads to healing of the mind and therefore the body for the body is the servant of the mind. Forgiveness bestows an equal gift of full deliverance for both.
Forgiveness does not come from pity but from compassion and love. Through love all pain and suffering is proven to be but vain imagining, a foolish wish with no effects. Your health is a result of your desire to see your brother/sister as guiltless - and what you wish is given you.
What you free in your brother/sister you free in yourself releasing the burden of guilt bringing healing and health to both.
Correction is not your function. Through correction you lose forgiveness. Correction belongs to the One Who knows only fairness and not guilt. However it is through forgiveness correction is obtained - never accusation.
