When the good we desire is secretly lodged in the quietness of our hearts, and then, suddenly, that good appears in a practical, tangible way, we are amazed by this “glad surprise.” At such times as these, there is a deep sense of The All-Pervasive-Presence that is ever so near. In this exalted state of acceptance, praise, and thanksgiving, there is a tendency for the one who receives this divine grace to express heartfelt gratitude, and in so doing, provides an opening for even greater and greater good to unfold as health, wealth, harmonious relationships, or whatever it is the heart longs for.
Truth be told, there is never a time when we are separated from this magnificent Law of Good. Actually, it is our very own words, thoughts, and feelings. These creative forces, the ceaseless activity of the mind, when filled with conviction, become visible. They become the people, places, and things we have imagined life to be.
When we become conscious of this phenomenon, just as great thinkers and mystics before us have; we begin to use this powerful Law of Mind for specific purposes. We begin unleashing unity, peace, beauty, wisdom, and intelligence into the world through our words and actions. This spiritual consciousness perpetuates a world that works for everyone.
The choice to align one’s self with the rhythm of the Divine Mind in whom we live, move, and have our being, takes courage and discipline. In some instances, we may experience an “exact struggle of the soul;” especially when one’s gaze has been a downward view of apparent conditions. However, we may be assured, the former things that no longer serve begin to fall away when the creative energy of our words, thoughts, and feelings no longer sustain them.
In some ways the choice means being a mid-wife to one’s own new birth; providing self-care and an unwavering faith that affirms that what awaits you, is indeed an expanded life of the Light. The awakened one begins to see as God sees . . . Omnipotent Good at every turn.
In summary: Practicing the presence of a Power for Good operating in the universe by affirming absolute oneness with It, causes a breakthrough in consciousness that gives birth to a higher sphere of life, living, and purpose. The evidence, or manifestation that shows up is the natural, necessary, and logical outcome of the mindset one has entertained and embodied.
Meditation, Life Visioning, Spiritual Mind Treatment, Inspired Reading, and Journaling are some spiritual practices that are supportive in attaining a realization of the Truth that sets us free from every sense of limitation.
I live my life with love, grace, and perfect ease.
