Make a Commitment ~ Archangel Michael

This is your daily card reading for Wednesday, July 2/14.  Your card today leapt out of the 'Archangel Michael' deck, authored by Doreen Virtue.  Your card is the 'Make a Commitment' card, and Doreen's message for the card is this:
"You drew this card because you're asking about how to improve a situation.  Archangel Michael advises you to fully commit to your desired outcome.  If you're tentative or unsure then the final result will be unsatisfactory.  However, by making a commitment, you'll help spark movement in your life.
My prayer: Archangel Michael, as the angel of courage and confidence, I call upon you to lend me your strength.  Allow me to commit to myself, my life, and my Divine purpose. Please clearly guide me so I can fully open my heart to every experience."

My message for you today is this:
We are coming out of the chaotic energies of June and into the PRODUCTIVE energies of July!  Don't get me wrong...June served it's purpose, as 'messy' as it felt, at times!  We have come out of the rapids and into calmer waters, but the purpose of having navigated the rapids was to continue now in forward motion...even if the waters are more placid, they are still flowing!  You must dip that oar in the water and propel yourself down the river of change. 
At a difficult and tumultuous time in my life, a number of years ago, I came across a beautiful saying that I used as an affirmation: 'May my Spirit flow gently down the river of change.' Whenever I felt overwhelmed by the circumstances and changes around me, this affirmation helped me to 'surrender' into the energy of the rapids and to move with them, rather than fight against them.  Such was the energy of June.  Now, in July, it is up to YOU to steer your own canoe and to do so with commitment and confidence!  The change that was necessary in taking you to the next level has been brought to the surface for you in June...now movement forward is up to you!  Archangel Michael, whose name means 'He who is like God', is a powerful protector and one of his major themes is to assist us with being in our PURPOSE. 
How are you feeling compelled to express your best self out into the world at this time?  You are a powerful Lightworker or Lightbearer!  Call upon Archangel Michael to be with you and assist you with this---he has presented for you today as a reminder of all the spiritual assistants you have available to you.  Utilize the prayer that Doreen has shared with you, above, or create a prayer of your own making...just be sure to ASK for Divine assistance. We often forget to ask, don't we?  Ask for Divine assistance!  Be brave!  Shine your Light!  Now is the time!
Blessed be...
