Does everything really happen for a reason?

And if we are responsible for creating our reality, how can we possibly reconcile that teaching with deeply traumatic or challenging experiences in our lives?

In this channeled message, Melchizedek explores one of the most difficult aspects of personal responsibility and the mirror of reality.

He explains an important distinction: everything may happen for a reason, but this does not mean that everything is spiritually ordained.

Some experiences may form part of the journey agreed before incarnation. Others may arise through cause and effect from our beliefs, expectations, emotional patterns and internal state.

Most importantly, Melchizedek reminds us that responsibility does not mean fault.

There is no blame. There is no guilt. There is no shame.

Instead, responsibility can become an opportunity to recognise our own power, to understand what our experiences may be teaching us, release limiting beliefs, change our internal state and ultimately change the reality reflected back to us.

In this message:

✨ Does everything really happen for a reason?
✨ Responsibility versus blame
✨ The mirror of reality
✨ Spiritual bypassing
✨ Preordained experiences and soul contracts
✨ Trauma and challenging life experiences
✨ Cause and effect
✨ Limiting beliefs and expectations
✨ Why not everything is spiritually ordained
✨ Releasing guilt and shame
✨ Recognising your power to change your reality
✨ The relationship between the human self and Higher Self

Sending so much love

How are we to accept responsibility for the circumstances we see in our life?

Especially as for many of us, we have gone through deeply traumatic circumstances within our lifetime. How do we accept responsibility for this? Should we accept responsibility for this?

What role do we play in our life? Does everything really happen for a reason?

This is what Melchizedek has discussed in today’s channeling. He talks in depth about the Mirror of reality, about our role in creating circumstances for our life, and the difference between preordained events and those that we create ourselves. Enjoy.

Greetings, my beloved sons and daughters. What a joy it is to stand before you once again today to discuss the most important subject of responsibility.

I have spoken about this a lot of late, for it is such an important aspect of the Ascension process.

To be able to recognize one’s power, to accept one’s power and embrace it, to utilize it, to reforge their world in the highest light, is the ultimate act of mastery.

Once one does this, they free themselves from the shackles of human perception, of human limitation, and they are able to truly embrace Heaven upon the Earth.

Yes, I say it once again. Heaven upon the Earth is here. It is for you to claim and it is for you to do this through recognition of your own power.

We have discussed the mirror of Reality and how it reflects back to you the circumstances of your internal state.

What you believe, what you feel, what you expect from your own internal state is what is reflected back by the mirror.

This is a teaching method to show you opportunity for growth. Overcoming to see the areas within your life where you lack so that you may overcome these patterns and embrace abundance.

So that you may step forward into your true joyous self and see the great blessings that surround you at all times. So you may live a life of joy, fulfillment and satisfaction.

This is my greatest desire for you, my beloved. And this is where I have been drawing your attention. This is what the energy is supporting at this time.

But I understand there are questions around this.

It is challenging for the human mind to conceive that all they see in their world is of their own making.

Especially when there is such darkness within your world. There are many souls who undergo experiences which may seem evil for want of a better word. It may seem unnecessary, may seem cruel.

I understand this and to accept responsibility for this is a difficult task. And so today I wish to provide some further clarification around this.

I shall begin by simply stating everything happens for a reason.

Now many of the Chelas will hear this and they will use it as a method of spiritual bypassing.

They shall say to themselves, this is going wrong in my life for a higher purpose. God has divined this. I must go through this suffering. I must deserve this suffering.

That my beloved is not true.

Everything happens for a reason. Yes, but the real question to ask is, what is that reason?

Yes, of course, there are those moments that are predetermined. They were written in your lifebook before incarnation. Perhaps a connection with another, perhaps an experience, an energy received or overcome.

And yes, perhaps sometimes something very traumatic, something very challenging, something dark even.

But these, as with all things, are opportunities for growth.

We discussed recently how you are who you are in this very moment because of the events of your life, both the good and the bad.

And let me assure you, my child, where you stand in this present moment is exactly where you are meant to be. There is nothing more asked of you, and there is nothing less. You are perfect. You have arrived in perfect timing.

And so the events that led to this, whether perceived as good or bad, are in fact good because they have made you who you are now.

And this is an important way to see your life. For there is good in everything, no matter how you may experience your life.

If you look for the good in a situation, if you look for the positivity and for the opportunity that this situation creates, whether it’s for release, for healing, for overcoming, for changing your patterns, for breaking down barriers, these opportunities always lie.

For the greatest growth comes through challenge.

And so, yes, there are those moments that are preordained that you are to experience in your life.

And yes, often with these most traumatic instances, this is the case. There was a reason for it.

And when multiple people are involved in these situations, these are quite often contracted. And I think it is important to be able to recognize this and to understand this and to be able to accept that, yes, this happened for a reason, because it allows the human side to accept this.

But the other side of this coin that leads to spiritual bypassing. Yes, everything happens for a reason, but that reason could simply be because you manifested it due to your internal state.

Perhaps your belief that a situation would turn out badly in fact informed the outcome of that decision.

Perhaps your belief that certain things aren’t possible meant that they never occurred in your lifetime.

This is a reason, this is cause, and this is effect.

Everything happens for a reason, but that does not mean that it is spiritually ordained.

And. And to assume that everything in your life happens for a higher purpose is to undermine your own power, your own strength, and it is to relinquish responsibility for your own life.

This is where I’ve been trying to draw your attention.

Yes, there are some moments that are divine. Yes, they are. Understand this.

But there are many moments, perhaps those that seem less significant but are important in the overall journey. You are responsible for these. You are responsible for your reality.

A moment that happens within your life, an instant isn’t necessarily your reality.

Your reality is your sense of the world. It is your understanding of what is and is not possible. It is the events that you see reflected back at you, around you.

It is how you respond to each situation. This, my child, is within your control. This, you have the power to change.

And it is through recognition of this, just through embracing this power and accepting that there is a part of you that led to these circumstances.

That does not mean you did anything wrong. There is no fault, there is no blame. There should be no guilt, and there should be no shame.

The moment that has arrived before you is here to teach you. It is an opportunity and nothing more.

That is the purpose of life on Earth. It is a school. It is designed to teach you so that you can learn and overcome.

Nocella is supposed to achieve ascension in a single lifetime. It takes hundreds, if not thousands of lifetimes to learn and grow from the lowest level of spiritual enlightenment to fully embracing your true godhood.

You are not meant to succeed in every circumstance. You are meant to learn. You are meant to experience struggle and challenge, and you are meant to overcome those.

And in doing so, you grow as an individual. You grow closer to that inevitable return home.

This is the journey. And this is the journey that you are walking so perfectly.

And therefore, if you are performing perfectly, there is no wrong.

It is the ego that draws you away from this truth. It is the ego that makes you feel as if you have done something wrong in a circumstance.

But this is up to you and you alone.

Once again, accepting responsibility for this is incredibly empowering.

If you can accept that it is your own feelings, your own experiences that make you feel that guilt and that shame, then you can overcome this.

You can overcome all things. You can accept that life simply is. In fact, you can accept that life is a blessing.

If everything that occurs before you is an opportunity to grow, how blessed are you to be able to ascend in the way that you do, to constantly evolve to better yourself.

And as you do so, you better your reality, you better your world.

Because, as we discussed earlier, reality is a mirror. It is reflecting back your internal state.

So if there is something within you that expects a situation of lack, when you overcome that, you release that and you welcome abundance.

Therefore, that experience that you share in the world around you no longer needs to be reflected back now.

Instead, it can reflect this state of abundance. It can magnetize and draw to you opportunities for abundance in your life.

This is how you overcome my child. You release the old limiting beliefs. You replace them with a positive belief. You change yourself and you change your world.

This is the path to ascension. This is the journey that you are walking.

Hear my words here today. I encourage you, please, to accept this as truth and to relinquish any negative feelings associated with your responsibility for your world. See it for what it is. It is opportunity.

I will leave you with one last message.

And this aspect may be more challenging to accept, but for some time now, I have been trying to lead you towards the realization that you are in fact the Divine.

The human shell that you see when you look back in the mirror is not the truth of who you are.

The truth is so much greater than that. The truth is that you are perfection. You are the personification of God, made manifest upon the earth.

You are your highest self. You are your soul. You are your I am Presence. You are your monad. And you are God. You are Source. You are all. This is the truth of who you are.

And so those decisions that are made, that are inscribed into your lifebook, that brings about those greater moments of challenge, those ones that may be more difficult to accept, these were in fact written in agreement with your soul, with your highest self, for your overall development.

Since you are that higher self, since you are the Divine, you are still responsible for this.

I understand this is hard to accept, my beloved, to be able to accept on a human level responsibility for these actions that may be so challenging.

But this is part of the road to mastery.

I shall simply leave that with you to ponder, to think upon in the coming days, months, or even years.

For as I said earlier, you walk in your own time and all things are in divine perfection. You shall come to this recognition at the point that is right for you.

The main thing that I wish you to see, though, my beloved, is your power, your might, and your strength.

I wish you to recognize this and claim it for yourself, to no longer relinquish it to others around you, to the world, even to heaven.

Yes, they stand at your side to support you in each and every moment.

But this is your path. This is your journey. And it is up to you to make of it what you wish.

Remember this, my beloved, and go forth in power, love and wisdom. Your loving father, Melchizedek. Thank you. Thank you.
