For a very long time, I have had a Bible verse as the wallpaper on my phone:“Because of your faith, it will happen” Matthew 9:29.
Manifestation. I think most of us understand how it works. When we have a clear image in our minds, when we are deeply convinced of its reality, when we can feel it, experience the emotions connected to it, and often visualize its details, it materializes. As long as the image remains uncertain, as long as we keep changing it, hesitating, or wavering, that vision does not transform into reality.
I noticed this connection a long time ago, even as a teenager. Despite understanding how the realization of our visions works, I was uncertain about many things. I tried to make decisions, yet it was not easy for me. I could spend several days convinced that something should look a certain way, only to decide afterward that it was not quite right. I was aware of my indecisiveness and worked on it.
Smaller things were easier to manifest. Sometimes I would laugh because it seemed enough to think about something, and a few minutes later it would happen. It felt like clear evidence of how energy works and how we can influence it through our intentions and thoughts.
My spiritual awakening has gradually brought more calmness, stillness, and certainty into my life. Many emotions have faded or transformed into something different. Some feelings are difficult for me to name. At times I mistakenly call something stress, even though it is not stress at all. It is not excitement, nor is it anticipation in the way I used to know it. On one hand, I feel a deep sense of peace; on the other, there is something like an expectation of swift movement or response. It is not the impatience I once experienced. Some sensations have become difficult to define.
As for what is unfolding now, I am genuinely fascinated by how calmly, smoothly, and quickly the entire process has progressed. I waited to write this until everything had been resolved.
Throughout this time, I have carried a sense of certainty, a conviction that this was meant for me. There is peace within me. I sleep very well. I do not worry. Some might say that I took a risk. Yet with such strong inner certainty and the belief that what is truly meant for me will come into being, I chose only one path and remained committed to it. And it turned out to be the right one.
Since my spiritual awakening, I have become more attentive to signs. Whenever something important is happening in my life, recurring signs and motifs appear in abundance. They reassure me that I am standing at a meaningful point in my journey and that what is happening is aligned with me.
In what is unfolding now, there have been many such signs. Many of them have a lasting quality, almost like seals attached to this particular moment. Over the years, I have also built a connection with this very point. It kept returning to my thoughts. I felt exceptionally close to it. It was, and still is, my favorite place since the day I discovered it. And I discovered it many years ago, during a breakthrough period in my life.
My current situation shows me that I needed years to build certainty and conviction. I needed to experience many different situations that strengthened my understanding of what I truly wanted from myself, my life, and my environment. Once that certainty arrived, once it became stable, once I found peace within myself and clarity about what was best for me, a sequence of events began to unfold that ultimately led to manifestation.
From my current perspective, that sequence of events is rather amusing.
First, I felt a strong inner impulse to act in a specific way. Then came the need to organize and simplify my life, something I wrote about previously. After that, someone had to appear on my path who would motivate me very strongly to act within a very specific timeframe. He did so through stereotypical assumptions about me as a woman, convincing me that I was the opposite of who I truly am. In doing so, he touched one of my most sensitive areas: my ambition.
It affected me so deeply that within two weeks I proved him wrong. I decided to accomplish what felt like the most significant breakthrough of all. Yet because nothing happens by accident, and because I needed a powerful catalyst to take action, I am grateful that this experience occurred. Life often shows us that opposites can become powerful sources of motivation, growth, and transformation.
This chapter of my life is important enough that I know I will return to it many times and smile when I remember how unexpectedly and almost humorously it unfolded. I feel guided through it, and I am grateful for that guidance.
Life is extraordinary 🙂
