A metaphysical perspective on the rain Matthew 18:3

This is considered the rainy season and while some folks dread the afternoon showers they are really blessing.  The Bible says in Matthew 18:3 "Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven."  As a child I remember getting excited for the rain, either I was prepared and got to wear that shiny coat with the cool rubber boots and awesome umbrella (kinda like Mary Poppins only much smaller) or if I was really lucky I got caught in it.  Wet drops of liquid sunshine falling from the sky. I would always pray for puddles to appear with no way around so I could splash in them always aiming for the middle hoping it was deep enough to reach my little ankles but not too deep.  The grownups would always panic and yell "look out" or "run so you don't get wet".  Somehow it seemed no fun for them.sighs. Maybe they forgot just how fun and spiritual the rain is.
Then I grew up...wait a minute...when did that happen?  geez. I am now one of "them".  Panicky and perhaps somewhat perplexed with the thought of another rainy day my mind would too often make minor inconveniences like traffic into major discomforts.  Then the thought occurred to me, I don't have to panic! no need to fret..  Annie sang about this. The sun will come out again. I can dance in this ran.  So I did. I danced! Fully clothed no raincoat no umbrella not even in my fabulous designer rain boots with the big polka dots. I laughed and even shed a tear, the rain was gracious and washed away any fears or concerns. The tears were unrecognizable and then it happened the clouds parted for a brief moment and the sun peaked out to kiss my face and smile at me.  I smiled back in gratitude for life. I danced in the rain and it washed all the tears away..and it felt so good a deep down spiritual good. Metaphysically, rain represents Spirit refreshing and enriching our thoughts and our mind. The rain can represent a spiritual cleansing of negativity thereby creating a space for manifestation of abundance and prosperity.
Sometimes as adults we get  into a state of mind while attaining and maintaining adult responsibilities where we forget to honor the inner child.  The inner child is that part of us that is innocent, and unassuming.  The inner child is inquisitive, imaginative and dreams unabashedly about life.  That inner child looks just like you and perhaps has been hurt, disappointed and maybe has been told it's simply not ok to play in the rain.  She may have forgotten how to dream and is just waiting to be acknowledged.  Does your inner child need permission to play? permission granted!
Go play in the rain its just what we may need to grow spiritually! (of course be safe and follow all the precautions  that are stored in your grown up subconscious) can't let go? then at least smile at the rain. its a start.. be happy
Hypnosis can help you tap into your inner child through relaxation and visualization.  For more information click here!

Think on these things a metaphysical perspective on whatsoever things are true


It is written in Philippians 4:8, Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. Thoughts are things and should be related to as such. Whatever is thought of in mind has the potential to manifest into reality.
What are you thinking? Is it true? Is it your truth?
Byron Katie wrote in Loving What Is “A thought is harmless unless we believe it. It’s not our thoughts, but our attachment to our thoughts, that causes suffering. Attaching to a thought means believing that it’s true, without inquiring. A belief is a thought that we’ve been attaching to, often for years.” How many thoughts or things are you attached to? What beliefs are a result of those attachments? The most difficult beliefs may be based in spirituality. Is it possible to be so attached to a thought that it is detrimental to your peace of mind . The key to peace would be to let go of the attachments. Perhaps it is time to see it differently. Where is the love? God is omnipresent and in that truth is the recognition that in the difficult people, situations and/or circumstances, God is there, just look again. The Truth is that any seemingly difficult issue is always the catalyst to that peace that surpasses understanding. The issue is imploring the cultivation of a deeper relationship with our Creator in and as love. What is necessary is to change any situation is to change the thought about it. The more difficult the situation the stronger the cry for love in giving and receiving. The spiritual healing begins within via prayer and meditation. Be still and know. The bigger the challenge the greater the harder it is to see the truth.
