I DARE to BELIEVE

BELIEVE

By: Susan Deborah Schiller

It was 3 am and I awakened with the thought, "Take a quantum leap!"

Startled, I arose from bed and fired up my computer, to discover that Merriam-Webster defines a quantum leap as: "An abrupt change, sudden increase, or dramatic advance."

My throat constricted and something from deep within bubbled to the surface and I suspected God was cooking up something extraordinary!

"What do you want?"  is the question I felt He wanted me to answer. Have you ever asked yourself that question?

To answer this question you must exercise your imagination. To imagine means to expect, to dream, to anticipate, to visualize, to believe.

To do that is to OBSERVE THE POTENTIAL of a thing, and scientifically it is called "popping a qwiff". Popping a qwiff initiates the chain reaction of a quantum leap, according to David Van Koevering in "The Physics of Heaven".

David quotes "1 Corinthians 1:28 ”…God (has) chosen…things which are not (the invisible) to bring to naught things which are (the visible).” and continues by saying, "This Scripture makes sense only when you understand it at the atomic and subatomic level. Everything is made up of atoms, which are frequencies of energy. These frequencies of energy are the voice of Jesus causing all things to be! Atoms are made up of subatomic particles, and subatomic particles are made up of superstrings (which are toroidal vortices of energy). Superstrings are tiny donut shaped packets of energy that spin at a frequency – or sing as in a pitch."

Perhaps a more simple explanation comes from Steven Pressfield's advice to novice writers:

"Begin at the end. Figure out where you want to go and work backwards from there."

So I'm going to pop a qwiff here by writing about 2014 as if it has already happened, following a fellow blogger, Ronne Rock's, lead. I'm going to imagine a whole year's worth of working, writing, playing, and living are winding down, already finished. All I have to do is observe the potential.

We don't have to live by default, you know. Maybe this is what Miriam Hellman means when she coaches us to "rise up!"

"Despite what other people might think is your fate in the future, God is ready to deliver you out of all the expectations of your enemies. Some of your enemies are sure that you are finished. God says you are only beginning. Rise up." ~ Miriam Hellman

It's in the telling of our tales, the truths being told, that we are set free to be all we are created to be and do.

2014 is my year of freedom. It's a time of jubilee. It's a year of grace, wisdom, and rest.

My book has been published and released to the public. It's in the hands of women who will also rise up, gain the courage to stand, and to let go of their shameful history, spiritual poverty, victim mentality, and destitution.

I see a long line of younger women eagerly reaching for the audio versions of my book. Those who listen to the words are transformed, strengthened, and together we become a tribe of warrior princesses.

I will believe even more. I will believe for contagious joy, creativity, and passion for life!

More women will receive the courage and strength to bare their hearts, to expose the spots and stains and wrinkles to the Overcoming Love that washes them "white as snow" and propels them to fly!

2014 is the year I am avenged for all the wrongs. My reward is several hundred souls saved from the fires of oppression and injustice.

Okay, I will believe for even greater things than this.

I will believe that former enemies will become friends. I see unity among Christians who were formerly divided against each other. I see reconciliation through humble repentance. I see contrite spirits and letters of apology.

I see our collective stories building a bridge of understanding and closing the gaps!

I see smiles and laughter.

I see provision, even extravagant provision.

I see peace and prosperity in the return to a simple lifestyle… eating non-processed living foods, sewing our own clothes, growing our own garden, raising chickens, and riding bicycles or horseback.

The next step is to work backwards, now, and to create realistic and measurable goals that will chart a path to this vision. But the main thing, the first thing, is to BELIEVE. To dream, to risk, to dare, to give it my all.

How about you? Do you have a vision for 2014? Do you have a word for next year, for the next five years? What do you DARE to BELIEVE God for? Have you popped a qwiff? 🙂

With all my love,

Sue
