It is with great excitement and with some trepidation that I propose that the first blog on the website for 2009 is a prediction, as it is an auspicious year that we enter upon. And yet how can we know it from where we are, standing at the starting line? I ask for your resilience in seeing through a testing time with the utmost resolve to be different, changed from the masses, determined to follow your own self development.

Should you see red, think of roses and love. Should the blue hue of depression and coldness hover above, rebound with the pure intention to develop intuitiveness. If all around you is a swirling mass of the yellow coward, make the decision to be more loyal to yourself, and hence God, by not getting sucked into the array by simply remaining in control of your love and emotions.

The world as a whole is suffering immensely and you can do your bit by not being overly dramatic or by counting the loss. It will get you nowhere and others will perceive you as no different. What we want is to start a swell of positive emotions, where what one person says or does has a direct influence on those around them. It may seem an insignificantly small gesture to make when the world, and this country in particular, is plunged into disparaging worries and debt, but take it as a positive adjustment for us to get back on track to a more harmonious future.

We all have our role to play in the year ahead, where our test is to cope through these difficult months. How we show our resolve to let go of pettiness, abandon greed and sway more to generosity will reflect directly on us. For those who care about the losses, the debt will be the greatest. But for those who determine to be prosperous amidst financial restraints, welcoming grace, loyalty and compassion as the rewards rather than monetary remuneration, then the recompense will be abundance.

Give of yourself to others in all situations. Don’t stipulate a price for self development, there is no gain that way, but be sure of honesty in your intentions, for what lies in your heart is what is heard by God.

God Bless and I hope this year brings you great wonders.
