To me the answer was simple: he was so focused on his fear of lack that under the well-known Law of Attraction he was drawing to himself exactly that which he wished to avoid; furthermore, even when he was imagining himself surrounded by the abundance he thought he wanted, because the exercise was based on fear and illusion, and was mind-based, it was never going to work.
He understood this, but what was harder for him to accept was that because of the multi-lived patterns of belief in him to do with his state needing to be one of poverty, he was attached to having a lack of abundance - or, if you will, he was attached to having an abundance of lack. Also, and most significantly, he had an expectation and dependency that someone would rescue him, and in his case, because of his spiritual efforts, he thought it should be God - but God was letting him down. Another conundrum…either he was not doing enough for God or God was not doing enough for him.
The essential truth and solution was that, ultimately, only he could help himself. Others might lend a helping hand but if he believed his wellbeing depended on people or Spirit rather than himself, then he would be bound to discomfort until he learned this hard lesson.
Often I am asked by clients why God does not make their life easy, why God can stand back when they have a real difficulty to resolve. It would be lovely for us all if, as we are being tested, as we are in every moment, a divine force would wave a magic wand and everything would be sorted miraculously, but that is not what being human is all about. We are here to learn and grow through our challenges, and the more we try the more Spirit will help us - not relieve us of the burden but guide us to open doors and opportunities without interfering with our karma or human responsibility. I see it as a co-operation without expectation on either side - only mutual love and respect for a shared mission, which is the implementation of the great Plan of God.]]>
