Say No to Suffering by Karen West
     Before I came to the New Life Vernon Howard classes, I often asked, “How can I stop feeling so tired and beaten down in my own life?”
     Everyone can benefit from having more energy. Everyone can profit from actually seeing what is draining the energy given to them by God. Vernon Howard wrote many powerful booklets, one of which is Your Power to Say NO. Where in this life does someone need to say NO to preserve their precious life energy? People may believe they must live the torturous life they’ve created for themselves, but that is an absolute falsehood.
     Does that mean that we then need to “create” a new life for and of ourselves? NO! Another unnecessary thought. The more junk that we let go of, the more the Kingdom of Heaven can come in and create the New Life for us.
     We may often suspect that we’re our own worst enemy. But by starting with a conscious, internal NO to all the nonsense, a spark of light comes alive inside, a spark that makes us aware we’re clinging to old beliefs and behaviors that torment us and that block the opportunity we’ve been given to live a free life. When we have the courage to refuse the negative, the exterior worldly circumstances may or may not change, but the whole life will move toward the higher and change for the better.
     A little over a year ago, I started a new business. It was very interesting to me because I have pretty much always worked in a routine, isolated office environment. This new venture, however, was a cleaning business, using manual labor, which was refreshing in a strange way. It grew very fast, faster than I could keep up with labor to help. I saw a lot in this whole experience about others and myself.
     Recently, it became clear to me that I was suffering with this situation. Many of the workers were very angry, were difficult to work with and because of this, were not good to have in front of clients. The light showed me that I don’t have to do this. Why was I suffering because other people were being irresponsible with their spiritual lives? I don’t need the money – I have enough to live comfortably. And I certainly don’t need the aggravation/ negativity/anxiety from the situation. So I said “NO” and have been watching how Truth is fixing the mess this false self created. I have tons more energy. A miracle has truly unfolded in front of my own eyes!
     Try saying the spiritual NO again and again. It works magically. It is not easy, because the damaging negative habits, situations, people and thoughts don’t want to leave. And there is a wrong part of us that doesn’t want them to leave either.
     This also connects to the “Now is New” exercise given to us by Vernon Howard. Every new moment there are opportunites to rightly say “NO” to whatever is causing us mental and emotional pain and distress. If we keep using our NO-power consciously, miracles will happen!
