YOU decided what your life would be before you were born

By YOU, of course, I mean the YOU as described in guidepost 1.   Yes, YOU have always been.  YOU have decided what to experience, what to do and be. YOU get to pick.  As you will see in the next guidepost, we are all small pieces of God.  As such, we have the ability to see different aspects of ourselves by selecting different types of lives on Earth that may represent a new aspect of ourselves not yet discovered, a new feeling not yet felt or a new angle not yet tried.  YOU decided to be born to the parents you were born to because YOU thought that experience would be good for YOU and for all of US. 

Now you may or may not agree with what YOU decided long ago, but that's OK.  Challenge is a good thing, you'll come to find out.  Once you realize that you are here to learn something, to accomplish something, you'll see the wisdom in YOUR decision. Ask yourself, what purpose am I hear to serve?  What am I to learn during this life?  Ask this when you are in a quiet, calm mood, or while you are meditating.  The answer is already there and you will become aware of it.  You will feel an urge to do something or a longing for someone or something.  Concentrate on this for awhile.  Experience what this feeling is telling you.  As you go through the day, think about what you feel and see if it gets stronger.  If this is what your purpose is, it will get stronger.  It will.  There is no doubt.  Trust that YOU knew what YOU were doing and let that trust calm you and allow you to experience your purpose. 

Some people reading this will already know what they are here for; they are born knowing exactly what they are here to do.  Others do not and get caught up in day to day activities, forgetting they have something to learn if they choose.  Those that already know typically have been through many physical lives (see guidepost 11) and are here to help the rest of us along.  To remind us that there is more to life than reality shows and French fries.

Still not sure?  Be sure to ask yourself what your purpose is as I described above, an answer will come.  Just by asking you are guaranteed an answer, just be sure you are aware when the answer arrives.  Many people have such a scattered mind that when the answer comes it is tossed around with all the other thoughts of the day, unable to get your attention and then dismissed when the body goes to sleep.  Forgotten by the next day.  Be sure to take a bit of time each day to relax, calm your mind and listen to the quiet .. and for the persistent knocking of your answer.  Open the door.
