The Joy of Alignment
There is a very special kind of joy that rises when an individual stops wrestling with life and focuses on aligning with the Infinite. It is not a joy that has to be earned, chased, or negotiated. It is a joy that springs up naturally the moment we stand in the truth of who we are, individualized expressions of a limitless, joyful Source. Dr. Holmes wrote, “The Universe holds nothing against us, and we must hold nothing against it.” As someone lives from this truth, joy becomes less of an emotion and more of a frequency they inhabit, a field of positive energy they consciously walk through with intention and ease.
Alignment is the sweet spot where intention, belief, and spiritual knowing meet. It is the moment when our inner dialogue completely matches the divine urges within our being that has been speaking the boundless good of God into us from the beginning. Esther Hicks said, “The better you feel, the more you are allowing your alignment.” Her wisdom guides us to the awareness that alignment is not about perfection or performance, it is about resonance. It is choosing thoughts that uplift us, words that magnify truth, and actions that reflect our being divine. Source joyfully living this journey, in, as and through all that we are 24/7. Living in this awareness, life feels less like a long road with hills and valleys and more like a graceful unfolding of powerful spiritual design.
Here is the awesome part of this truth, alignment does not remove contrast, it transforms how we meet it. In alignment, challenges become catalysts that deepen our faith, clarify our desire, and expand our capacity to demonstrate the best of the God within all of our journey. Scriptures shared this truth over 2 millenniums ago in Isaiah 58:11, “The Lord will guide you continually and satisfy your soul in dry places and strengthen you. You will be like a watered garden and like a spring whose waters never fail.” Alignment positions us to experience this joyful guidance in real time, allowing contrast to serve us and not overwhelm us.
Joy then becomes a state of spiritual beingness, a conscious willingness to stay tuned to the loving vibration of the Infinite even when life offers static. The more we practice alignment, the more natural it becomes. The practice of being in alignment with omnipotent Source allows us to step into the realization, that our joy is the active demonstration of Source expressing through us with clarity and grace. Joy then, is never an occasional chance encounter, as joy, true Divine Joy, is a way living and being. Centered in this awareness, we embrace fully our ability to live and create as the powerful, radiant individualizations of Source we can to this journey to be!
