The Power of Visualization

Grad Speech Spotlight - Jessica - Class of 2014

Beloved Mighty Victory's Six Pointed Star of Victory

Good afternoon Beloved Friends and Family of the Light!

It is with complete wonder and awe at the Power of the Ascended Masters that I stand before you all today. Many of you may not know, but for me, today marks a ‘dream’ that has taken many years in the making. Today that ‘dream’ has finally become a reality.

For six years I carried a pink rose down the aisle at Youth Conclave on “I AM” School day, expressing my desire to be part of Beloved Saint Germain’s “l AM” School.

When I was thirteen, I flew from New Zealand to watch my sister graduate here; and again I fell in love with my dream of coming to the “I AM” School, and the idea of being a part of something so amazing.

I vividly remember sitting here in the front row, being the proudest sister in the world as I listened to her give her graduation speech. I remember thinking, “l want to do that!” My sister was my first inspiration, the person who gave me faith that this ‘ridiculous dream’ could become reality.

Today, seven years later, through determination and visualization, I have finally fulfilled my ‘impossible dream’!  The Light of God never fails!

The Power of Visualization has become even more important to me during this last year at the “I AM” School as I've grown closer to the understanding of what It truly is — holding the picture and demanding it come forth!

Beloved Saint Germain explains:

“True Visualization is God’s attribute and Power of Sight acting in the mind of man. When one consciously pictures in his mind a desire he wishes fulfilled, he is using one of the most powerful means of bringing it into his visible, tangible experience...

    ...No form ever came into existence anywhere in the universe unless someone had consciously held a picture of that form in his thought; for every thought contains a picture of the idea within it.”

Saint Germain Series, Volume One, Unveiled Mysteries, Chapter 3:101

We thank and bless Beloved Saint Germain for those words.

Now, I have started to put His words into practice. When I'm having difficulty doing something, or when my creative juices have run out, or when I’m stressed and just don’t know where to start; - I just stop - I stop what I’m doing and I go into a quiet corner. I close my eyes and visualize that which I’m having difficulty with, being absolutely finished to perfection!

Visualization ensures success. Success now, and success for the future. There is nothing that cannot be attained if you truly put your mind and energy towards it.

Visualization is the forming of mental visual images. And as some of you know, I have a pretty decent imagination and am pretty nifty with forming mental images. This has helped me attain things ever since I was a child. I would just imagine myself being somewhere or having something; it was like an intense daydream every night before I went to bed; and before I knew it, that thing or situation had manifested.

Beloved Mr. Rayborn explains,

“Now, if you wish to achieve success, you know how to go about it. I tell you, Beloved Ones, if you have not a dime in your pockets to-day, there is nothing in the world that can stand before you or between you and your abundance from Life, which is the Treasure-house of your “I AM Presence” if you will start to deliberately call It into action.”

We, thank you Beloved Mr. Rayborn.

All you have to do is to take five minutes and visualize five, ten years into the future and see yourself actually becoming the person that you want yourself to be. The problem I've discovered is that although we live in the present and every passing minute is the future, we keep thinking about that past. Yet, although you may suffer from these feelings of doubt, that is why you need faith.

Beloved Lotus tells us,

“Dear People, you've got to have Faith in something! It’s a strange thing, but humanity has marvelous faith in some things and none at all in some of the other things that they ought to have some in. They have faith in an elevator boy take them up and down twenty-five, forty-five stories in a building. They have faith to cross the street, crossing the street that they're going to get across safely.

They have faith when they go to sleep at night that they're going to wake up in the morning and yet when you ask them to have faith in these Great Divine Beings whose Presence in the Universe is self-evident, ...

... and you ask mankind to believe It and they get to sneering and ridicule of that Great Divine Perfection - from which they should be receiving greater good, and which they ought to love with enough Power to release that good and bring some of that here."

We thank our Beloved Lotus for those words.

You have to have faith in the Divine Plan and your Mighty “I AM” Presence. Faith to believe that in a year or two from now, you will be successful in what you truly set your heart upon.

There have been times where I wanted to quit, but I said to myself, “Keep imagining, keep visualizing, keep thinking, and keep seeing what you want to be.”

You’ll look around and see nothing that remotely looks like success, but you have to embrace this feeling of faith in things not yet seen. And if you keep pushing, then one day, one day it will happen.

I would know, because it has happened for me. Although it took seven years for me to get here, I am finally standing up here against all odds. That is the Power of Visualization!

Who knows where the future will lead me. But I have faith that Beloved Saint Germain will guide me in the right direction.

My vision was to become part of Saint Germain’s “I AM” School and here I stand, so I would like to take this opportunity to thank that Beloved Master who has accepted me as part of his “I AM” School.

The Miracles that Saint Germain has preformed to get me here are countless, and even during some very, very blonde moments on my part, he opened the door and cleared the way.

So now, Beloved Saint Germain, I offer up my praise and gratitude for everything you have done. This year has been everything I could possibly imagine and more, so I thank you from the bottom of my heart for this blessing.

“I AM” eternally grateful.

  Excerpt from her 2014 Graduation Speech.

Since 1936, every Graduate at the "I AM" School has given a speech at their Senior Graduation ceremony focusing on what they have gained from studying the Ascended Master's teachings and how they applied this knowledge in their time at the "I AM" School.

An ever-expanding digital library of excerpts from selected graduate speeches from over the years is featured on our Alumni page.
