You Are Not Being Tested. You Are Being Trusted

What if I told you that every difficult moment in your life wasn't the Universe testing you, but trusting you? That every challenge you've faced wasn't punishment or some cosmic exam you needed to pass, but rather the Universe's profound confidence in your ability to expand beyond your current circumstances?

This revelation changes everything about how you view your struggles, your setbacks, and most importantly, your choices.

The Sacred Truth About Your Challenges

Traditional thinking would have you believe you're being tested, that life's difficulties are some kind of spiritual pop quiz where you either pass or fail. But here's what I've discovered through years of working with women who've transformed their lives after 50:

The Universe isn't questioning your worthiness; it's banking on your power. Every challenge that comes your way is actually the cosmic equivalent of someone saying, "I know you can handle this, and I trust you to use it as fuel for your expansion."

Think about it: Would the Universe present you with something it didn't believe you could navigate? Your trials aren't roadblocks, they're launching pads. They're the divine catalyst designed to awaken the Divine Urge within you, that unstoppable force that makes you want to "suck it in and win."

The Battle of Choices Within

Here's where it gets fascinating: You are Infinite Spirit contained in a physical vessel. Your true essence is so vast it literally overflows your human container, creating what feels like an internal tug of war. This isn't a design flaw, it's your birthright as a co-creative BEing.

As Spirit having a human experience, you're what ancient wisdom calls "the wheel in the wheel." You're both the cosmic force and the human making choices in real time. This creates the battle we all experience when deciding whether to expand our lives or contract them.

God's will is always for your higher good, but your free will creates the experience you live. When your choices stem from fear, you contract, and everything you've built seems to crumble. When your choices align with the truth of who you are as Spirit having a human experience, you understand the profound connection between free will and what I call the free wheel—your ability to move forward, pause, or even reverse.

The Geometry of Your Choices

What most people don't realize is that each choice you make creates geometric patterns in the fabric of reality itself. This isn't metaphorical, it's the sacred architecture of your life. Every decision adds another layer to the complex, beautiful structure of your existence.

When you're spinning out of control in your experiences, creating that negative spiral we all recognize, it's because your free will choices have fallen out of alignment with your true nature. You're contracting instead of expanding, moving backward instead of forward.

But when you remember who you are, Spirit having a human experience, something profound shifts. Your conscious mind realigns, and you come back into awareness of your power as the wheel in the wheel. This is when you begin to spin forward with fierce velocity, spiraling upward and outward into the manifestation of everything you dream.

The Cosmic Force Behind Your Expansion

What science calls dark energy, that invisible force driving universal growth, is the the Divine Urge within you constantly pushing toward greater expression. You're not separate from the cosmic expansion happening all around us; you're an integral part of it.

This understanding transforms how you view your desires. They're not selfish wants or frivolous wishes. Your desires are the Universe seeking greater expression through you. God's will doesn't control or judge your choices—it's always God's will for you to have what you desire because those desires are the cosmos expanding through your unique expression.

Living as Sacred Architecture

Your choices aren't random decisions scattered through time—they're the sacred architecture of your life. Each decision builds upon the last, creating the complex, beautiful structure of who you're expanding into. You are not becoming someone new, but emerging into the fullness of who you've always been.

The foundational principles, Purpose, Passion, Prosperity, and Power, aren't values to aspire to; they're the great arcana of your sacred wheel of fire, the foundational mystery of your spiritual architecture, the compass of your soul.

The Sacred Choice Before You

Every moment presents you with a sacred choice: 

• Will you trust the Universe's trust in you?

• Will you choose expansion over contraction?

• Will you remember that you're both cosmic force and human decision-maker?

Your challenges aren't tests to pass or fail, they're invitations to expand. Your struggles aren't punishments, they're the Universe's vote of confidence in your ability to transform them into stepping stones.

The choice is always yours. The power is always within you. And the Universe? It's always trusting you to choose your highest expression.

This is your sacred choice. This is your cosmic expansion. This is how you spiral upward into everything you've ever dreamed, not despite your age, but because of the profound wisdom and power that comes with it.
