GOD-CHANGE STARTS WITH GRATITUDE

[The following is a reprint of my blog, reworked, of January 30, 2016.]

Love, Joy, Peace, welcome these. Let no personal feelings, no thoughts of self banish these. Singly, they are miracle-producing in a life, but together, they can command all that is needed on the physical, mental and spiritual planes. -- "God Calling," January 30

Ponder that. What if peace, love and joy really do command all that is needed on the physical, mental and spiritual planes? We'd surely need to change our way of living..."and if that ain't enough, change the way we strut our stuff."

According to me, all God-change starts with gratitude...specifically, gratitude for that which we're resisting! Long-ago lesson learned: We'll never let go of anything until we accept it as our own...not resign ourselves to it but accept it as our own.

A likely starting point, then, would be to detach from our own self...our sense of lack in particular. We must needs build on our inner sense of abundance, a.k.a., enough. For that is all abundance is really...enough, a consciousness of enough. More than enough is the fool's path toward greed.

Living in a consciousness of peace, love and joy is living in God consciousness. For the walking-around humans like you and me, that is to aspire to...to aim for and laugh at ourselves when we miss. And learn to aim higher.

We'll never realize the power of those "wonder-realm attributes," however, hunkered down in our reasoning mind...resistant, fearful of life itself. We can live in a welcoming state and experience those uplifted moments of peace, love and joy. For it is those moments that beget more peace, love and joy.

Really, it is our choice.

Thank you.
