Say 'all is well,' Say it not as a vain repetition. Use it as you use a healing balm for cut or wound, until the poison is drawn out, then, until the sore is healed; then until the thrill of fresh life floods your being. -- "God Calling," May 12
There...according to me, that is the short, sweet and on-target recipe for letting go of our self-determined objectives (which, too often, is all an affirmation is).
All is well is an affirmation. It is our intention that must change. If we're saying "all is well" and thinking "because I need to get a new car, my bills paid, a reformed spouse...," then, no. We're just going down ego's well-worn and wrong road again.
When we're praying "all is well," with God's will being our only goal, we are quieting our mind, detaching from our ego-thoughts. That is opening to God's will which already flows within us. We are being lifted into spiritual consciousness where, indeed, all is well.
That is the difference between affirming in order to get and affirming in order to realize. Learning the difference is how it comes to be that we can trust that our Father knows our needs.
Thank you.
