Blinding flash of the obvious: I shall know Thy will.
I am comforted by my BFO, I shall know Thy will, for I realize that my knowing will not come by my thinking in order to cause it to happen. It comes through consciousness. The presence is with us always whether we know it or not...ah, but more important, whether we believe it or not.
We seek still more spiritual growth in order to raise our consciousness. To keep raising our consciousness, we use our God-given reasoning mind to ponder spiritual principles for it has been written, All of our problems can be solved by spiritual principles.
The delicate balance between using our God-given reasoning mind and letting our God-given free will, the home of our ego, take charge is a part of still more spiritual growth. The fact is, though, just because I know for certain sure that my ego Lucy is edging forward, looking to get me to kick the football...again, doesn't mean I'll not go for it...again.
That, too, is still more spiritual growth...how else can we learn to love and laugh at our self?
If it is true, and I believe it is, that all paths lead to God, we make our decision to seek God's will then do what seems our best course of action toward getting our want. That's what I call "hold your nose and take a leap of faith."
We find out soon enough if our want is God's will. If it is, it will be perfected in us as time goes by. If, however, our want is not our need, we usually resist until we loose it and let it go. We are now open for our need to be perfected in us as time goes by.
I have heard it said that there are no mistakes in God's world. Remember Lucy? Maybe the occasional error in judgment.
Thank you.
