In the walking around world, when we do our thing and succeed, our joy is "I Won!" Who's kidding whom? In that moment, the feel-good is all about self.
When God does his thing, "We Won!" is our shared joy...not just for you or for me but for everybody who receives the story. The underlying lesson...to "hear" the story is not necessarily to "receive" the story. We hear the story, and a smile comes to our face; we receive the story, and joy springs from our Soul for our consciousness is raised.
Without any mental machinations, raised consciousness transmutes into spiritual consciousness, and becomes God's good story passed on. We become grateful that it takes time for us to fully realize this as our exchanged consciousness.
The time it takes is the time our reasoning mind needs to let go, to trust, that our thinking may no longer be our life's leader. That the God of our understanding is. In that realization and in fact, All...God...that for so long we had hoped could be true for us is true.
Now comes a new awakening: This is a bare beginning. It will take as long as it takes for us to trust it.
We will have a boatload of questions, doubts and self-centered delays as we head in the new direction...away from self inward, toward God.
All this results when one defect of character, self-will, is released...not renamed, released. Lesson a-learning, or continuing education: Never limit God.
Thank you.
