“This is the promise of the Code of Divine Guidance: “God can do for you what you cannot do for yourself.” Can you imagine what your life would be like if you believed this with 100 percent certainty—believed that you were fully supported and loved more than you ever thought possible?

Can you imagine what your life would be like if you believed that you were protected and cared for in all the ways you ever dreamed about?

The Code of Divine Guidance calls on us to know and trust that there is something greater than ourselves as individuals. To live this code fully, we must accept that we are both divine and human.

Our human, ego-driven nature drives us to try to control things and act as if we were in charge of the universe. Even though all we want is to feel loved and to belong, often we are left isolated and separate from others.

These patterns and the beliefs we have adopted cut us off from the safety, freedom, and possibility that come from knowing there is something greater than ourselves at work in our lives.

“The Code of Divine Guidance asserts that there is a power, a creative spiritual force, that is beyond our human imagination. I call it “divine” because it can literally change the entire trajectory of our lives and rearrange our thoughts, our feelings, our actions, our choices, and our future.

When we trust that our best interest and the evolution of our souls are the Divine’s highest priorities, we will feel the spark inside of us, the spark that is always there—driving us, urging us, and nudging us to evolve.

There is nothing to fear, because every single thing that is happening is happening to deliver us a lesson, an insight, or a key ingredient to bring us closer to our highest self and support us in the evolution of our souls . . . whether we can see it or not, whether we believe it or not. The experiences that have challenged us are merely opportunities to know ourselves, to learn, to grow, and to step into the highest, wisest parts of ourselves.”
