As a writer, there’s this thing called writer’s block. It’s where you know you have to write something, but nothing’s coming to you. I have much experience with this. In fact, the 2nd channeled book I’m working on has faced a lot of blockages. The first book, Back to Being, well, I didn’t even set out to write a book. I just sat down one day and thought, “let’s see what happens if I start writing,” and voila – a book was born. This 2nd book was/is more intentional, and maybe it’s the pressure to come up with interesting questions, or any questions that haven’t been beaten to death. Well, I think I’m overthinking it. It is, actually, truly amazing that it is still coming together even with my reluctance and bouts of writer’s block. Last night I was reading over what I’ve written so far, and I’m amazed at how it flows and is this cohesive piece of writing, even though as I’m writing, I think it’s so disjointed. But it’s not! It’s validating and it’s a bit off-putting. I am constantly pinching myself saying, “This is coming from me?

For this weekly blog, my intent is to post channeled messages every week in answer to questions. In the absence of questions I’ve, at times, pulled something from the book(s) to share, which I had planned on doing today. However, since I also like to shoot from the hip, as they say (who says that?) I got AI to give me a writing prompt for today’s blog and this is what it gave me “I trust the flow, each moment unfolds with divine purpose.” And I guess that includes this very moment of this very writing.

This week I have been experimenting with whole heartedly trusting the flow. I really do hate sharing my personal woes on one hand, but on the other hand these woes, at least this week, paint such a fun picture for this trusting the flow experiment. So I will reluctantly share my pitiful circumstances just to prove how fun this experiment really is.

Let’s just start by admitting I live paycheck to paycheck and some times (not often) I don’t make it to the next paycheck. I’ve had some adjustments this past month with me voluntarily reducing my work schedule (from 4 days to 3 days) and then work changed the pay frequency and I’m not actually making as much monthly, and then this month I overextended because I’m helping my destitute niece move, and so I’m paying for things that I can’t afford for her. Because I don’t care, she needs it, and I’ll figure it out.

So that’s the premise of this week. I overextended myself, helping my niece, ending up with an empty refrigerator and stretched bills. Now, when I say no food, I really do have a freezer full of odds and ends, and I have cans, and I have eggs. There is no way I’m starving. There are people in the world, I know, who really have no food, and I’m not that person. But my refrigerator was empty (other than eggs). And after paying rent (which I did have enough for), I did not have enough to pay other bills, buy groceries, let alone buy my daily crackers and iced tea, and so I gave it up to the “U”. I didn’t panic. I didn’t care. I knew something would happen. I would either get creative with those canned goods, or well, I just didn’t know. And as far as paying bills, it wouldn’t be the first time I had late fees, but it has been a long time since that has been the case. But there I was, overextended, no food, and no idea how the following weeks, before the next payday, would unfold.

The first thing that happened was while at my niece’s new apartment helping her get organized, her baby daddy showed up with food. He works at a Greek restaurant, one of the most popular Greek restaurants in the city. This restaurant goes to farmers markets and outdoor venues more than it is a restaurant now. Anyway, on Saturday, at my niece’s, he calls and subsequently shows up with a ton of leftovers that apparently is a common thing he does with my niece and their kids. A ton. My niece, who is not a fan of eggplant, asks if I want the eggplant Moussaka. I have no idea what that is, but I love eggplant, so I’m like sure!  Then she throws in a thing of chicken and a stuffed pepper. She is not aware of my no food dilemma, she just has too much. Keep in mind these are BIG portions and they are professionally packaged.

I have been smiling ever since and think to myself, “look at this!”  First of all this Moussaka stuff is the most delicious thing I’ve ever eaten. The chicken fell off the bone and this stuffed pepper – I mean it’s like gourmet food. I have enough to get me through the week. I mean, isn’t that fun?

And the money shortage? I’m not proud of this but I do have this sorta kinda personal line of credit. I don’t like to use it, but it’s an option. However, I didn’t want to reach out to them, knowing I could, but I just wanted to wait and see what the Universe was going to do. And that’s who the Universe called on. Out of the blue (ish) they called me on Monday and said, “need anything?” – lol.  Actually, that would be a yes! So, it’s not a windfall, but it was a means to an end. And they called me, and the timing was fortuitous. Now, I have turned them down before when they’ve called and asked if I needed anything, but I believe the Universe reaches out in many ways and in the absence of a windfall it’s saying “do this, you’ll be fine” – and I know I will be.  I know it.

So these are two experiments just this week where I had the opportunity to let it go, give it up, and, more importantly, know I was going to be provided for.  I knew it.  But I didn’t know how, and it was very fun to experience it unfolding.

I have always played around with this, but admittedly in the past, I had a backup plan in case the Universe didn’t respond, but this time I did not have a backup plan (well, maybe I did with that line of credit), but I didn’t want to initiate. And the food option.  I mean that food is so delicious and every night when I’m heating that up I think to myself, “I can’t believe how good this food is.”

I trusted the flow, and I believe the divine purpose this week was the validation that it works and for me to share it with you all. It works for the small stuff and it works for the big stuff. But starting small is key. At least for me. It’s hard not to panic when your basic survival is at stake, and admittedly, I was not going to go hungry nor be thrown into debtors’ prison, but my plight this week gave me the opportunity to experiment and experience the validation. And I thought for this week’s blog, I would share this and hope that it encourages others, gives someone courage to trust, no know, you’re going to be okay and it’s going to be Moussaka, not a can of tuna! (although I also like tuna.)

Now, what can I give over to it next?

I didn’t want anyone to feel slighted by not having a channeled message today, so I channeled the following message—not just for me, but for all of us.

Boom!  And that’s how it’s done.  You let the solutions come to you.  Of course, you could have, and would have, figured something out on your own.  You always have.  But what if the reason you feel stuck is because you’re always trying to figure everything out on your own—rather than stepping aside and letting the Universe work its magic for you? Once you start allowing, things are going to pop for you, and you are well on your way to proving to yourself that it’s real. This was a demonstration of how your needs will be met in fun, delicious and synchronistic ways.  And really that’s all there is to it.

  • Miss your train? Oh well, get the next one
  • Computers down? Take a break
  • Have a bill to pay? Put it in the God’s pile (and of course pay it as able)

Nothing is worth getting angry or frustrated over.  When you can get out of your own way, leave your expectations of the details at the door, and be open to what comes to you, you will notice big changes in your life. It’s also important not to dismiss what the Universe offers you because you want a different solution. Your phone call? You were right to accept it, even though not your first choice, the U (Universe) knows what it’s doing. It came to you. Trust it.

As you continue to accept what’s offered and allow solutions to unfold for you, you will continue to open more and more doors and opportunities.  Getting out of your own way is key.

You are on a roll. Let’s see what happens next.

And because I now run my writings through AI to make sure it makes sense and flows, it always has to have the last word. I offer here its summation:

Remember, when you let go of trying to control every detail and open yourself up to the flow, life meets you with surprise blessings. Every setback becomes a setup for something better. So, take a deep breath, trust that the Universe has your back, and watch as your world transforms—one synchronistic moment at a time. Lynn is living proof that when you allow, things work out. Let’s see what happens next together.
