One of the greatest gifts that a man or woman can be given in this world (and only if they ask properly) is to understand that everything that happens to them - no matter what -- is for their greater good. It makes no difference what it is -- call it the worst thing in the world -- and most of us have had the experience of recognizing there were times when if we could have thrown away that moment full of fear, anger, resentment, we would have thrown it away.

How many times in your life have you acted not just against yourself, but perhaps against others because your actions were uninformed, and you were moved prematurely into a conclusion? Too many times to count really. And most of these premature conclusions had some negative taint to them -- judging somebody, arriving at some insistence based on incomplete information.

In this answer to a viewer's question, bestselling author Guy Finley explains that freedom from fear does not come about through imagining what that freedom is. Our task is to enter into the moment as present to ourselves as we possibly can, and then to allow the intelligence that is inherent in the awareness itself to strengthen our understanding of the true purpose of each moment.

There are these moments where a person is introduced to a great clarity that the world they have been looking in, in order to find themselves through, is incapable of revealing the worth they are looking for.

Guy explains that everything that is created wants to live and will fight to exist, including fear and negativity. If you ever want to have a spiritual healing, you need to understand these types of forces that will do everything they can to ensure their own continuation, and essentially prevent a human being from ever finding freedom.

Seldom do we know a greater need for making a fresh start than in those mind-numbing moments when we find ourselves feeling thrown for a loss. These feelings of loss often leave an unconscious, invisible residue of fear which tends to taint every area of our lives with distasteful timidity, born of the neurotic suspicion that in some way, life is conspiring to take something away from us.

If you wish to enter into a new relationship with life you must be willing to challenge the voices of "I can't" or "I won't" or "I don't" when they appear in your mind. This is the only way you will discover that those voices are not really you.

Guy Finley explains that we are not meant to worry about growing older. We are meant to welcome growing older as a natural step towards changing what we value most in life.

In this short talk, Guy Finley talks about how real freedom is finally found when we are willing to go through the pain of doing what is right.

Guy Finley explains that our true purpose in life is connected to the part of us that is always present and connected to a higher intelligence that always goes before us to place our existence into its proper context.
