Recently I was in Reno attending a seminar with Dr. Doreen Virtue on connecting with the angels. Before all was said and done, I discovered it was a perfect weekend for actually being conscious of the miracles that took place.

Because the Reno Air Races were in town, hotel availability was scarce or non-existent…and that was when our first miracle happened. My friend Peggy and I decided to “call upon the angels” for a reasonable place to stay. We actually found a room right across from where the seminar was taking place! Of course there were NO rooms for Saturday — that is until we called, (after asking for the angels help again) and were given our same room. What a wonderful validation of angels at work…not to mention our second miracle. It is in the small miracles and the paying attention to them that actually creates more miracles. It doesn’t matter whether you hear voices in the head, (no you’re not crazy) or see a sign along your day’s travel, or even hear a song over and over. The only important thing to remember is if you ask your guides/angels for assistance be on the alert for the answer…you will receive one.

When I look back at that weekend I am amazed at the transformations that took place. I believe everyone in the room was touched by Doreen, “The Angel Lady,” on a heart level. Her down to Earth explanations, her abilities to see and communicate with the angels and those who have made their transitions, brought about a realism that even the most skeptic would find hard not to believe.

Through it all, Doreen’s two main messages, at least for me, were: “the angels love you and want to help you,” and, “you have to ask your angels for assistance and then you have to listen.”

The “asking” part I believe can be a tough one for many of us because we weren’t always taught to ask. But on the other hand the listening can be just as tough.

What if I ask and the answer is something different than I “expected” or even wanted? Afterall, I know what’s best for me…don’t I?

What is the energy behind asking? For some it may be a sign of weakness. For others it may invoke guilt for having asked. And on another front, it could even be a challenge to prove that asking does no good. Does any of this hit a cord…I know it does for me.

Then there is the listening part. By listening am I willing to follow the advice of the angels? By listening do I give up control or free will? What if I listen and find myself on a whole new path…would that be scary or exciting? I believe it would probably be a little bit of both.

I feel what is boils down to is learning to let go and actually trusting. How can we embrace the abundance of life if we are not willing to let go of the control of how that abundance comes to us. I am speaking of every area of life, wisdom, knowledge, finances, fun, laughter relationships, etc. All those perceptions of the mind.

As I truly sat with this whole angel adventure I realized that asking and listening is a good thing. It definitely isn’t a question of who is in control or whether my perception of what I want is actualized. It is about trust and faith that whatever path I walk I do so with the assistance of the unseen realm…the realm of angels.

We don’t have to know everything that is happening in our lives. All we have to know is that love is all around us and can be a most powerful moving force in our lives.

Thank you Ms. Doreen Virtue for your gifts to the world…the gift of the angels and the gift of love. 

Take care. §
