WHY WE MEDITATE

All of our problems can be solved by spiritual principles. -- Anonymous

That is the most important fact we will ever need to remember and to keep forefront daily. Remember, and then strip down our resistance to it...our "yes, buts...." For instance:

1. Macular degeneration is not a problem, it is an incurable  disease of the eye to be treated by a qualified doctor.
2. Cancer, Alzheimer's, a stroke...none is a problem, all are physical conditions requiring medical attention.
3. Lack of money, food, home, car...none is a problem, all are circumstances, probably temporary.
4. Nuclear war...not a problem, a dilemma. 

All, every single one of those, have one common denominator...that is fear. That is the problem. And that, our single problem, can only be healed by spiritual principles. For fear lives in our mind, our thoughts.

It is a difficult thing to realize, and our reasoning mind will not get us there, but we have nothing to fear from conditions in the material world. It is our thoughts about those conditions that we must look at...look at full in the face and then let go of, detach from...and, again, our reasoning mind will not get us there. God, however, can and will if sought.

We make conscious contact with God through our daily quiet time. Joel Goldsmith recommends that in "the early morning hours of every day," we realize the presence of God within us since everything is done by and through God. It is that realization that proves the truth of such statements as, "He goes before us to make the crooked places straight," and "He performs that which is given us to do."

It is our realization that proves them true and active in our lives. If we don't have that realization, those are just so many words. And there it is. That is why we make conscious contact...daily.

Thank you.
