“There is something that waits on our recognition to spring into being, bringing with it all the Power in the Universe.”
— “Creative Mind and Success,” by Ernest Holmes, page 31

I have read this quote several times today and it gives me pause about what I’ve done with my life, my beingness.

I think I understand what is being imparted, I have a lot of awareness, and intellectually I recognize this amazing Power. And while the thought in the quote exhilarates me, it also makes me feel sad and disappointed.

With so many decades behind me in this lifetime, I feel like I am still waiting for a switch to be turned on. But I don’t know what it will take. When it does turn on, I’ll be this passionate person who takes the Power in the Universe, the power in her, and finally makes the most of her innate talents, life experiences, and character and soul attributes. Then I will make a meaningful contribution to the beings of this world, I will finally have accomplished whatever it was I was meant to in this lifetime on Planet Earth. I will be in bliss and feel one with my Creator.

Until then? How does one wake up this sleeping giant of power? My intellect is surely not sufficient to do so. I call on the Divine to stop waiting and switch on that recognition so that I can use the Power to heal and uplift this world. I am ready to make the most of the gifts I’ve been blessed with and share them in order to realize heaven on earth now for others and myself.

O, Great Power, please awaken in me the power of the kingdom so that I can accomplish all that is mine to do and be in the state of joy, bliss, and oneness with You. Thank You, thank You!
