LEARN TO LAUGH ABOUT IT

I'm reminded again that every situation has two interpretations...mine and God's. I am feeling resistance  to a situation that my ego-victory mind wants to set straight...i.e., shame the offender in front of her world (which just happens to be my worst fear for me...being called to account (shamed, to me)  in front of others).

Knowing that, I also know I will not do that...because that want-to is really the unimportant part. It is the home in my own mind that want-to has made that needs correcting, or healing.

I go back to: "I stand at the door and knock." I remind myself I, the Father within, is knocking at the door of my consciousness to be let out, not to be let in...It is already in, already within. It needs to be let out to go before me to make the crooked places straight.

I remember that all I need do is change my mind. Consciously remind myself that I can look at this in a different way...I can interpret the situation in my best lights. My conscious "thank You" opens the door to my remembrance that my Father within has already interpreted this rightly, i.e., as a blessing to me.

This is where discipline starts...expect not to immediately be there, i.e., free of resistance, full of forgiveness. It is to turn again, turn again, turn again to the conscious remembrance that my Father within has already rightly interpreted, for my benefit, the situation that I am resisting...then praise that fact with a simple thank you.

Nothing is a one-shot deal. Even that moment of surrender when we are rocketed into the fourth dimension must be revisited...maybe daily for the rest of our lives, maybe until three days after we're dead, and maybe just once. That's none of our concern. We just do, praise, and learn to laugh about it.

Thank You.
