The Law Of Request
Spiritual Laws - Developing Awareness With The Law Of Request
The Law Of Request teaches us to ask when ready and to ask with clarity and not to force our help on those who do not need it.
Under spiritual law, if you want help, you must ask for it.
If you rush in and interfere in a friend’s concerns in an attempt to help him, it is a quick way to lose his friendship.
Furthermore, when you help someone who has not asked for it, you prevent him from sorting out his own situation for himself, which is his learning process. Quite likely you become an enabler, who helps him to continue on his old unhelpful ways.
When you force your help or advice on to someone, you bear the karma if it goes wrong.
It is considered bad manners to rush in uninvited and most likely your help will be ignored or unappreciated.
Of course, if someone is drowning you help! You guide the blind and comfort the sick and bereaved.
However, if you feel upset by the mess someone has got themselves into, it is your stuff. It is an indication that you need to look at yourself rather than rescue someone else.
If you are involved in a difficult situation at work, the learning and the experience you gain from dealing with it may be the perfect stepping stone you need to move you on in your career. It prepares you for promotion. You wouldn’t expect someone to leap in and take over the situation without asking permission. That would be interfering and block you from being ready for a better job.
In the spiritual realms, no angel or Higher Being of Light would dream of interfering in your life. Yes, they will save you from serious accident if that is not your karma, or death if it is not your time.
However, they will stand by with total compassion and patience and watch you making a mess of your situation if that is what you need for your spiritual growth.
Not only is it spiritual bad manners for them to interfere but it also stops you from becoming stronger and learning.
There are times when it is appropriate to ask for help from your Spirit Guides, your Angles, or from the Great Spirit itself. But by asking, I mean carefully assessing the situation and then calmly and with strength requesting the help you need.
‘As soon as you are ready to ask for help, you are ready to receive it. You are ready to accept the wisdom that goes with it. Then the higher powers will align themselves to help you.’
Some people are constantly crying out, ‘When, what, how, why?’ They want to know the answer to one question after another. These are demands rather than questions. They come from a place of desperation and neediness, not from a centered open place.
The person who is steadfastly walking the spiritual path goes within to look for answers. As soon as you are ready to know something more the teacher will appear to provide it.
If someone offers help and you accept it, that is a contract.
If they offer and offer until you accept, that is pressure. It is their stuff.
The answer lies in the question.
The more clarity you have in your question, the fuller the help you will receive.
‘The Universe is waiting to help you.
All you have to do is ask.’
