Hi Guy, I hope you are well. I am back with another question I hope you don’t mind. I’ve been thinking about the law of mutual attraction and trying to wrap my head around it properly. I understand that all is illusion created by us and that if we don’t like how life has unfolded we can draw towards us better circumstances but the bit that confuses me is the white and black “magic”. As I understand it we should only try to attract things that benefit others, that being white magic and to draw things for ourselves would be considered black magic. I have read a comment of someone asking Bob a similar question regarding wouldn’t we ourselves need to be in good circumstances to help others, IE family and so on, as it can be difficult when we ourselves are not doing so great, and that we reap what we sow, which I completely understand and can see the sense in. Then I read if we hold on to the image of the life we want we draw that to us also, we may not be rich or super healthy as is our life plan but does that contradict the use of white and black magic? Forgive me if I have it all wrong I’m just confused as to what is the correct use for this law. I have an image of where I would rather be in life and I would love to be able to help as many people as I can and I do try to do so but is it wrong to also want to help yourself? I try to keep faith when I feel I’m being tested but as I’m sure you know it can be difficult. Sorry for rambling I just wish to try grasp this concept the best I can and try be more active in using this law properly.
Answer:
Thanks for your question and message. I am well, thank you and I hope that you are also.
For the law of mutual attraction, the best answer I can provide you, based on my own experience, is to not think about it.
The more that you try to manifest and manipulate the laws of creation, the more you are going to find that they work in the opposite.
So, simply thank God for the blessings that you receive, whatever they are (no intention as to what they could be), thank God for the light and love that you receive and for Gods angels and your guides to watch over you, to protect you, to guide you and to help you and then do what it is that you enjoy doing that you are able to do.
Help others when you can and when it is appropriate to do. Don’t go looking to help others, the opportunities will present themselves and if you are in a position to help, do so.
Then, once again, go back to what it is that you enjoy doing.
At the end of the day, say that prayer of thanks again and sleep a deep and peaceful sleep. In the morning, as soon as you awaken in bed, say a prayer of thanks to God again and go on with your day doing whatever it is that you enjoy to do.
Of course, if you are needing to go to work or school and you don’t like that very much, we all need to do what we need to do and just try your best to be nice to everyone and help whenever you can.
As you mentioned and as a last “fine print” point, your life plan may put certain limits on what you can and cannot do, but again, don’t think about it or get disappointed when you were hoping for something to happen. The best thing, once again, is to not think about it, do not have any intentions as to what you think you want to do. You cannot know what it is that you need. Your Higher Self knows and unless you have developed to the point that you are in contact with your Higher Self, you cannot know what it is that is right for you.
So, allow you life to unfold, remember, you are the avatar and your Higher Self is supposed to be in control.
If you play video games, it is like your body is the character you see on the screen and the Higher Self is the one who is holding the game control pad. So, how are you living your life? Are you trying to play the game from the position of the character in the game, running around having no idea what is in front of them or around the corner because they cannot see that far ahead or are you the one holding the controller who can see the whole game field and knows which way that the character should go?
Let me also be clear, it is not easy for anyone, me included, to allow the one that is holding the controller game pad to control the game, because we think we are the ones holding it, but the reality is that we are the avatar character in the game and we try to change our situation from that point of view because we cannot see nor fell our Higher Self, wanting to help us.
So, do your best to allow your Higher Self and guide and angels to guide you and help you and you will find that your life will work out ok, maybe not how you want or think or hope that it will work out but how it needs to which might include some bumpy moments or periods that are uncomfortable, but once you go through tough events or experiences, they become less and less tough.
It will never be smooth sailing, but each “test” will get easier to navigate.
Thanks,
Guy
