Do you know the difference between trust and faith?

How to get the outcome you wish for…

When you’re facing challenges and you’re required to call on your faith, it’s not always easy to believe that things willbarron falls sm get better, nor to keep your focus on the outcome you desire. For years now I’ve been hearing from my guides that I need to trust. At times it’s easier than others –depending on the emotions involved.

Recently I received a message that explained the importance of trusting and keeping the faith. It might help you if you struggle sometimes with faith. This is what I was told.

Trust is the process of letting go – it is surrendering control of the outcome and simply releasing to a higher power. Faith is holding on to the belief that what you desire is possible after you have entrusted that it will be. Trust is a short-term choice and faith is a longer-term moment by moment holding-on to that belief. You require both in order to manifest the dreams you are creating. So day by day you must keep the faith and not allow doubt to creep into your consciousness and day by day you must take small steps yourself to aid the process of creating your dreams whilst you hold onto the belief that they will be manifested into reality.

It will take discipline and conscious choice. If you can do this the possibilities are infinite.

Make no mistake – whether you take action against what you wish or simply fail to take any action towards what you wish the outcome will be the same. So in each moment you must make a conscious choice to keep your focus on the outcome you desire and do not allow yourself the luxury of doubt. This is where your test of faith and strength comes in – if you do not trust and you lack faith it is the same again as moving the energy in the opposite direction in which you wish to go as the universe will interpret this as a wish. That because when you do not believe this can be then it cannot be because by your lack of faith you believe and are creating the opposite of what you actually wish for.

Of course, we cannot interfere with free will so if what you wish involves another person’s life and free will then you must only focus on yourself and your wishes for yourself. For example, if there is someone who is creating chaos or drama in your life, your focus must be on a peaceful life for yourself and allow the other person to pursue their own journey. When you change your own inner self, everything around you changes.

Highly successful people believe in all the possibilities. They “keep their eye on the prize” no matter what, even when they face challenges. They believe in themselves and they see setbacks as a learning opportunity, a chance to try again and do it better next time. If you look to the truly inspiring sportsmen and women you’ll see this played out over and over again as they come back from serious injury.

stairs smIf you struggle with trust and faith it might help to ask for small signs to help you each day – to remind you to keep your focus positive and step by step, day by day, in the right time and circumstances, your situation will be resolved for your highest good. It may not happen exactly when you expect or in the way you expect, in fact things might turn out so much better than you could have ever imagined when you hand over to a higher power.

Miracles can happen! When we believe…
