If You Want, You Can; Your Will Power Is Enough

Thought is vibration of the spirit, it is manifestation of intelligence, it is spiritual power, teaches Christian Rationalism. Thought is the driving force that can propel human beings to success or failure. Therefore, being optimistic is fundamental in everyone’s life.

The projects that people want to implement in this world must be preceded by thoughts that promote constructive ideas and images. In this mental process, strategies are drawn up and the necessary and available resources for the implementation and execution of what was planned are evaluated, which will require actions and decisions aimed at the effective implementation of what was initially thought.

The creative capacity of human beings requires the use of the motor of achievements and transformations, which is willpower, accompanied by perseverance and determination. Human projects of spiritual evolution and material progress are closely linked to innate spiritual attributes, all driven by the guiding intelligence of others, such as reasoning, logic and creative capacity, and to the spiritual faculties of the vocations and abilities chosen in the astral plane for this goal.

Anyone who finds himself incapable of accomplishing anything that crosses his mind is because he carries discouragement in his subconscious, he does not know will power as a powerful lever for undertakings. Insecurity and pessimistic ideas populate the thoughts of people who do not believe in themselves, who do not trust the spiritual strength they are endowed with.

The lack of soul energy makes it difficult to carry out any project that the spirit has conceived in the internship plane. On this physical plane, in addition to wanting to do, it is necessary for human beings to have psychic balance adjusted to the reality of life, because obstacles will always arise to be overcome on a daily basis, as they are part of living on Earth.

Everyone can be successful in their evolutionary goals, as long as they use their free will properly, as bad choices make it difficult or even prevent them from being achieved, as we also affirm that willpower combined with thought vibrated correctly is the great educational exercise that humanity needs.

Human beings in general waste time with practices that are not constructive for evolution, such as backbiting, envy and greed. These are vices of a moral nature that hinder the perception of good intuitions and the expression of elevated feelings, as they are spiritually numbed by the exacerbated materiality they carry.

To the pessimists who only believe in defeats, we say that it is never too late to start again, because the spirit has no age. The passage of time reveals its chronological logic only in this physical world. For Universal Intelligence—and human beings are individual emanations of this Great Focus evolving on Earth—there is in the astral plane, with respect to space and time, a kind of eternal present.

When turning to issues related to spirituality, people discover that they have attributes and faculties suited to evolutionary needs, that there are transcendent laws that balance and harmonize the Universal Whole, of which they are an integral part, and that the elimination of bad thoughts and feelings are fundamental to disciplined living.

Upon awakening to spirituality, human beings will certainly take advantage of their current existence, fulfilling the purpose for which they came on Earth: to grow spiritually, taking advantage prudently and securely of the material means that this world of schooling offers to everyone without distinction.
