Flowing Love Through Money
Often people wait for money (or whatever) and refuse to follow their intuition because they think they can’t ‘afford’ to do something or give generously. But in my experience trusting and having faith that ALL-is-Well, and that we live in an abundant universe, has always shown me that love naturally flows. You cannot create a ‘void’ with loving intentions without the universe rushing to fill it back in.
Here’s an example that happened yesterday. A wonderful friend sent a very unexpected donation. The following letter which I sent to her (and her response) will perfectly show how this works.
” I must tell you more about the amazing perfection of your gift. A week ago on Friday I went to the bank and planned to take out $100…which is A LOT in Guatemala. Spirit pops into my head and instructs me to take out $200 (for no particularly good reason as far as I could tell, but I’m good at following directions!)
A week earlier I had decided to give my 10% tithing to my daughter’s riding instructor, Norma (newly single mom trying to do it on her own with 4 children). And I told her how I always set the money aside (10%) and don’t touch it because it has to go to someone….and since it has to go to someone, I wanted it to go to her, because she was always so loving and kind to everyone and I really wanted to support her. We had to have a bit of a talk about the importance of receiving, but she finally agreed.
So, three days after taking out the $200, Norma was giving us a ride home. I asked her about a past issue where her 14 year old daughter’s dad wouldn’t let her go to a birthday party at the beach, and why he had that level of influence, and she explained that she needed his financial help, and that he’d promised to give her $100 (the previous Friday) for her daughter’s school, but he never actually gave her the money, and she’d written a check based on his word. (To give you an idea of what $100 is here… a full time teacher makes $180 per month, a maid makes $1.10 per hr!)
Before Norma started telling me this story I was already planning to give her a generous amount of money, but then I absolutely knew I was supposed to give her the full amount… and of course, I had it in my pocket! I said, “Norma, this $100 is for you. It’s a gift. I have tax return money coming in, and this is the 10% I’d be giving you, so please take it.”
Norma burst into tears, saying she’d pay me back. I said, “No, this isn’t from me. I just take directions from God and pass gifts along. You’re only job is to receive! And I was told to take out this extra money last Friday.”
Norma said, “I believe you, Heather, I was praying to God about this, and my prayer was answered!”
Then we had this great talk about the importance of receiving…especially for people like Norma who are SO giving. And about letting go of judgment toward her ex (and not looking to him for supply) but instead to go directly to the Source of All Abundance!
So your gift coming today, so unexpected and out of the blue, just reconfirms everything I’m always telling everyone else!!! :-) I always have faith. And at the same time it’s so delightful when my own little miracles show up in such an obvious way. Love flowing through money, which is what I did for Norma….I flowed my love and support for her through money, and now you’ve done the same for me…and we’re all connected to the same Source so Love flows through us and to us!! Love that!”
“Dearest Heather…
I am so happy to be able to share my blessings with you.. Friday I got a strong thought after reading your facebook email that I should make a $100 donation to you and that you were in need of it. I thought ok but got busy and forgot. Saturday I was in my Prayer Room and the thought came again saying I needed to go now and make that donation to you.. that you would be waiting for it. I never question the instructions… I do as told also…This was love showing up where it was needed… for you. You are amazing…to say the least and your daughter is so so special. She is blessed to have you as her mom… I do not know to many mom’s who would have the courage to jump traditional and go for the thrilling… dare to live the dream…
Peace, joy and love to you my friend… keep in touch… letting us know what’s happening in your world…..Love you!”

When I gave the money to Norma I felt SO MUCH JOY in the giving. I was thrilled that I could help her, and you can see from the letter I received that my friend felt the same joy and willingness in her gift to me. This is Love Flowing Through Money. The amount doesn’t matter – it’s the loving intention behind the gift. Money given with love never fails to return. And as you can see, it wasn’t just money returning, but money given with love.
Carolyn Myss (a well known medical intuitive) once taught a class about developing intuition. She started off by saying something to this effect. ”Every person in this room is so intuitive it’s painful. And the reason it’s painful is because you do not ACT on your intuition.
Acting on your intuition means you follow your feelings, even though there’s no ‘evidence’ that you’re being supported. The ‘evidence’ always, always appears, but not until you take action. You’re always called on to have faith and courage first, then you see the little miracles blossom!
Here’s a link to a slideshow I created. You can tone with the music at the end and go here anytime you need to be reminded that you live in an abundant universe
Much love to you! From Heather & Amelia
