Tired of Signs? Try the Only Thing That Works

Good morning. God morning to you. You’re not a body anymore. You’re a barrel or a vat full of sweetness. If you don’t believe me, close your eyes and feel the sweetness you are, the sweetening that is happening to this moment that felt plain just a moment ago. And you’re radiating out into the scene.

Open those eyes, making the scene sweeter too. Changing the temperature of the scene, the atmosphere of the scene. Everything still looks the same, but there’s a different feeling, a different tone, a different touchstone.

I was sitting like this in front of the big glass doors in my living room. And as I became aware of being a barrel or a vat of sweetness, a seahawk with an enormous fish, and you know, fish means multiplication, fish means abundance, flies right in front of me and lands on the dock, directly in my line of view. I’ll share a picture and a video on my blog; you can find the link in the show notes.

And it sat there for three hours and 30 minutes. Three hours and 30 minutes! It became a sort of meditation for me because before the switch flipped, before I became the barrel full of sweetness consciously, there was no hawk with a fish. But as soon as I flipped the switch, I’m talking about almost instantly, on those waves came the seahawk. I’ve lived here for six years. I’ve seen many a seahawk. I was even awakened by one at 2 a.m., and they should be asleep, but that’s another story for another day. But this one had a fish, and it sat there for three and a half hours. Birds don’t stay for three and a half hours.

And so, I used those three and a half hours to practice staying as the barrel of sweetness. Right now, I want you to practice staying as the sweetness until the end of this episode, and then beyond. You could set an alarm so it reminds you to continue to just become aware of the sweetness in that body, as that body, and then as the whole scene. You change the whole scene, and then you watch what changes in the scene.

Last night, I was walking to the beach and remembered after crossing the street, I do not like crossing streets, even though I am a grown woman and appear to be an adult, I was still feeling a little, you know, like I had a little bit of extra adrenaline. And so, the switch was not flipped. But as soon as I flipped that switch, a feather fell from the sky right in front of me, helicopter-style. It was probably a seagull feather, a big one. And it helicoptered all the way down right in front of my boots. I took a picture of it and then kept walking.

You have to change inside. You have to change your energy, and then you see changes. And I know you’re like, “Nikki, a feather is not going to pay my bills. It’s not going to promote me. A seahawk with a fish is not going to feed me. It’s not food for me and my family.” I know, and I understand. I already talked to God about that. We’re tired of signs. We don’t just want signs. We don’t want small shifts and winks from the universe. We want massive change.

You want massive change, but nothing much has changed internally for you. You still have the same thoughts and the same worries, and none of them are yours. I need you to keep stepping back, stepping out of that mind, out of those worries, the ones you’ve had for 10, 20, 30 years. The same feeling you’ve had where there’s like a block or a wall keeping you from God. It’s not. It’s not there. But it feels like it is.

All you have to do is turn your attention around and be yourself. Be the one you’ve been praying would come to save you, rescue you, and change everything for you. You just feel the sweetness. And the sweetness will fill in all the blanks. Everything you think needs fixing or mending, it patches. It smooths over. It completely, entirely replaces.

This is the invitation, the formal invitation. You want to see change this week, right? You want things to change tonight, right? Then you change right now. I’m not telling you to be fully aware of your formless self. I’m saying feel a little bit of sweetness in that body, like your life depends on it. Feel it where your heart appears to be. Feel it where your head appears to be. Feel it above where your head appears to be. Wherever it’s easiest for you to feel it, it does not matter, as long as you are aware of it. As long as you’re placing your attention on that instead of whatever it is you’ve been trying to change.

You can’t change the mind with the mind. You can’t change matter with matter. The only thing you haven’t tried consistently is Love, and it’s the only thing that works. Wake up to it.

I love you.
