Note from Cheryl: Higgins is answering this question in segments. This is segment four. I’ve bolded the next segment.

Question: I find myself wanting to ask for and look for clues that something toward my desires manifesting is actually working to avoid frustration or discouragement. Is this a good thing or is it better to just have blind faith?  Sometimes it feels like nothing works and never will, but that is an emotion to just go through.  It can be difficult when money is going out faster than it is coming in, but in the meantime there is time to either just enjoy life or look for a job out of fear. What would you recommend?

Higgins: Segment four.

Sometimes it feels like nothing works and never will,

This is a magnificent statement. A statement like this is extremely clear about where you are emotionally, and therefore vibrationally, regarding your desire. This is a statement of hopelessness. Hopelessness is a very good time to make some heart statements to yourself.

“I have compassion for myself in this moment of discouragement.”

“I have compassion for myself in my not knowing.”

“I have compassion for myself as I blunder around on the Earth feeling lost.”

“I have compassion for myself as I practice applying the laws that I am learning.”

Make up your own statement. One that feels good to you and lifts your heart in the moment of your despair.
