Of all the things that my guidance and higher self are revealing to me, trust is the most challenging.
When I knew this consciously for the first time, it was like a ton of burdens was lifted from me. My thought was something like, you mean that all my life I have been struggling and worrying for nothing?
You see I did not realize yet that everything in our lives is karmically programmed to offer the illusion of freedom, with the stipulation that karma is included or behind it. We must always return to the unknown within us to find fulfillment. There is no escaping it.
It is hard to imagine our life being preprogrammed prior to our birth, logically it makes no sense, but we are not talking about logic, are we?
We think that life is only governed by our ideas and beliefs, and nothing can exist beyond that. We have chosen to be kept in prison by our knowledge and understanding and failed to explore and understand the life within us.
Spiritual truths must be revealed, they cannot be learned like math or science. Spiritual truth is our conscious knowledge of our life and existence. It pertains to everything we consider hidden and maybe even unknowable.
Without trust we are limited to thoughts and ideas in books and the opinions of others with high minded titles. We only know and learn what we are taught and not who we are.

I read the book by Robert Schwartz, "Your Soul's Plan" which goes into how we plan out our life before birth in order to learn specific lessons that advance our Soul. We take on many challenges that grow us. Loved it and your speaking of it.
