AND IT IS GOOD

Most important was the realization that all our problems could be solved by spiritual principles:

In the material world, our eye sees what is here and now...what we experience is our own interpretation of that momentary sight. How we interpret what we see, determines how we live. Without some guiding principles, we are an open invitation to an aimless life...kinda like living the luck of the draw. Since life goes in circles and cycles, we sooner or later come to realize our life is ever the same-old-same-old. 

Comes the Light: Either through great love or great suffering, we realize we can change course...it is never too late to seek. We know not what to seek which is the gift. In not knowing, we are shown. 

We can continue living in the material world, self-willing our way...meaning getting a little good, a lot bad but mostly indifferent, i.e., boring. In the spiritual world, we pretty much get the same mix, only we are given the gift of understanding that is, upgrade our attitude, we upgrade our problem. So the bad is upturned and we find our giftee, the grace of Truth, which removes the boring altogether. Truth is unchanging...we can rely on it even, as and when it feels risky. Resist not evil is a primary.

To live in the truth that the Father and I are one is to know I AM  (i am) the source of all my woes. Though my woes to my reasoning mind are my rues, regrets and remorses, to the God of my understanding, they are my pearl beyond price, my blessing in disguise. Which makes clear that we must needs seek ye first the kingdom of heaven...ah, again, upgrade our attitude, upgrade our problem. Now we see not through our reasoning mind's eyes, but through God's eyes...and it is good.

Our spiritual principles' bottomline: We go to God for God, invisible, unknowable, incomprehensible God. And it is Love.

Thank you.
