What is expectation in faith and trust, or manifestation?
Expectation is a part of faith. It is in trust and belief that is beyond what is easily perceived tangibly. To be in expectation is to through trust act in faith, following your heart and intuition. It is experienced in the act of nurturing hope through prayer with the faith in what is asked is already done.
How do you act in expectation?
Acts may include such actions as rest, a simple chore, embracing a talent, researching an interest, learning, discovering, prayer, meditation, just being grateful and remembering your blessings, and getting ready (more on being prepared later). It is not just the obvious steps and actions moving forward in pursuit of a goal. Sometimes, actions may involve getting out and doing, but that could be as simple as acting as if from the perspective of what would a you who already has whatever it is be doing? Being or attempting responsible actions and doing the best you can are also staying in faith, and are enough. These actions are what it means to be expectant.
Are you ready?
You do not always have to be ready or prepared to see results in your requests or manifestations. Are you feeling called to be prepared? Do research, learn a skill, make a list, seek out an answer. For example: such as in a purchase, what would it cost? Where do you buy one? Are there other options? Or, Who do you hire to complete the desired task? Take some time to compare and question. Plan out some action steps, even if you don’t know how, or the whole picture, list out what you do know or need. Organize, prepare yourself, prepare your environment, and keep in mind there is no right or wrong way. Also, do some self care, allow for self healing, or self reflection to grow in character. Trust in your instinct, and where your heart leads. Learn how to expand, grow, nurture, maintain, cultivate, or even keep what you are praying for like a child before acquiring a first pet. Do not do things because you think you must, or because it hurts it must be good. Negativity always causes delays, so don’t force yourself, punish yourself, or take actions not aligned with your own heart. Most of all be grateful for all you have, have had, and are asking for. You are not here to be like everyone else, you are here to be you and do right by you, while respecting everything and especially the divine energy in and all around you. Respect is always good. Remember to respect and honor you too! Follow peace and seek where peace is and leads you.
Brightest Blessings!
