Intention or Coincidence

By on July 17, 2009 in Inspiration

I regularly have been passing a dairy farm for over a year that had not been caring for its cows well.  Each day I pass by, i greet the cows with love but in my heart, I was unhappy with their condition.  Three days a week, I drive by, think and feel for how I can be of help to them.  I would look at the countless grassy fieldsand wish that they would be allowed to roam and feed on them.  I began planning  to lodge a complaint with our state agriculture department but had not yet done so. 

Last month, I noticed a truck from our State agriculturedepartment that oversees dairy farming parked at the farm.  The next day, the cows were out grazing on the many acres of grass meadows.  The foul feeding area was undergoing a major clean up and the lovely cows themselves had been cleaned of their mud and feces.  My heart was singing with joy for them.

As any creature of habit, the cows began wandering off to eat the dry hay and feed formerly provided and I became concerned that the situation would again degrade.  Two weeks ago, the truck was again there and further clean ups began, the old feeding area was now roped off and no dry hay was provided.  So far, so good and now those beautiful cows can even wander to the edge where I can seem them closer up.  What joy to begin a work day with such a blissful scene.

I recounted this story to my dearest friend, who was equally overjoyed.  We were both impressed that our State took action.  She then turned to me and said "you changed that just with your energy!"  That never occurred to me.  What do you think?

    Dear Linda,

    Very much Possible!

    The fact that your energy is capable of manifesting, it also brings you the responsibility to be alert as to where and how you use it.

    God Bless You.

    Dearest linda,

    I think prayers from heart work. and that must have been the reason, God must have listened to your prayer and acted through someone.

    as urmil said, use your prayers for the betterment of this beautiful world like you did this time.

    i am a big believer of prayers and their power.

    Wish you love, peace and happiness.

    Hi Linda,

    the saying is, 'All things work together for good, to those who love God.'

    Synchonicity somehow spirals along with intent.

    Thanks for nice clean image of cows,

    ed

    Wisely spoken Urmil. We should all be aware of what we are sending out as everything causes a ripple.

    In Peace, Love and Laughter

    Thanks Trisha, I appreciate your input. This whole thing with these cows was both a heartache and a heartsong; an ache for their former deplorable conditions and a song for humane treatment.

    In Peace, Love and Laughter

    Could it be that you sent brainwaves to the cow… the cow sent brainwaves to agriculture dept… synchronously you sent brainwaves to agriculture dept??? Not a coincidence. As Soulmate Ed put it: synchronicity.

    Thanks for posting.

    Keep resonating with THAT energy.

    Sending you unconditional love,

    Bing

    Dear Bing,

    Yes, to all the above. Synchronicity, intention, the cows' consciousness and right relationship with other beings. All that aside, i really love cows and all of you.

    Thanks for the Love.

    Lovely story,

    Wouldn't it be awesome if we could also change the horrible, unbelievable, and cruel conditions, of every child in this world? In an out of the womb. Why do you think we can't?

    Linda, amazing loving and super lovable friend I am more than 100% sure that our thoughts make wonderful positive changes wherever we go. I fel so grateful to God because three times in this wonderful life time riding on city buses the drivers feeling bad, maybe for taking drugs, or for overwork, here in the summer is sometimes 42 CENTIGRADES = 106

    Thanks for your comments Razz. I believe we can all effect change if we are committed to do so.

    Dear Linda,

    It was definitely your heart-felt prayer being answered by God. Thanks for sharing, it reaffirmed our beliefs.

    Love,

    Dear Linda

    This is simply the Power of Intention!I myself has seen such power in action in my own life several times!That's because our thoughts are part of the cosmic Mind!/Cosmic consciousness!

    This is one unified field of consciousness/Energy/God/Brahman!Nothing Else Exists! Only HE/"That"!

    Jai Ho!

    Yes, Linda, your energy (and you know that all is energy as stated in your bio) generated change as it communicated concerns in consciousness with the collective.

    So, now we have collective cow consciousness (don't you love alliteration?)

    Great story. Great demonstration.

    Love,

    Junnie
