Message of the Day - How can one have the guidance from the Divine, according to one’s need?



 

Q: Sweet Mother, if one needs something, like a mother’s affection or some help, how can one feel it in the Divine, according to one’s need?
 

If, for example, one wants to know something or one needs guidance, or something else, how can one have it from the Divine, according to one’s need?

The Mother's Answer : By asking the Divine for it.


If you do not ask Him, how can you have it? If you turn to the Divine and have full trust and ask Him, you will get what you need—not necessarily what you imagine you need; but the true thing you need, you will get. But you must ask Him for it. You must make the experiment sincerely; you must not endeavour to get it by all sorts of external means and then expect the Divine to give it to you, without even having asked Him. 

  
Indeed, when you want somebody to give you something, you ask him for it, don’t you? And why do you expect the Divine to give it to you without your having asked Him for it? In the ordinary consciousness the movement is just the opposite. 


You assume something, saying, “I need this, I need this relationship, I need this affection, I need this knowledge, etc. Well, the Divine ought to give it to me, otherwise He is not the Divine.” That is to say, you reverse the problem completely. 


First of all, you say, “I need.” Do you know whether you truly need it or whether it is only an impression you have or a desire or quite an ignorant movement? First point: you know nothing about it. 


Second point: it is precisely your own will you want to impose upon the Divine, telling Him, “I need this.” And then you don’t even ask Him for it: “Give it to me.” You say, “I need it. Therefore,since I need it, it must come to me,quite naturally, spontaneously; it’s the Divine’s job to give me all that I need.”
