WE TRUST GOD'S UNREASON

Morning blinding flash of the obvious:  There is an untapped higher intelligence deep within. Now is the time. Use it.

Ongoing thoughts: I am in a quandary about several things in my life today. My reasoning mind is all aflutter. I choose to accept that now is the time I am to trust that untapped inner power...to detach from reliance on my reasoning mind (but not to deny it).

A while back I wrote that it is detachment from reliance on our reasoning mind that sets us on the path to freedom. And yet today I am fraught with serious problems concerning my eyes and my ears...with petty problems about my car...with etc., etc., etc. 

There is a niggling question about all these being dicey at the same time...the old is it odd or is it God?

I am definitely seeing the appropriate doctors about eyes and ears, and I know that all the other stuff and nonsense will get taken care of one at a time. But I suspect that this is the time to trust that these, too, can be lifted up deeper. Not to be fixed as I want them to be fixed, but for the within fraught to be resolved...for there's the problem. 

I go to one of my favorite learning lessons: 'If you want to learn to love better, you should start with a friend who you hate.' -- Nikka, 6

Doesn't make a lick of sense, does it? But there it is...we must go beyond reason to love laid out by a six-year-old.

In other words, go in the opposite direction of our wants. This is true of every happening in our life...trust each not to our reasoning mind, trust our reasoning mind to our inner power, our higher intelligence, to bring about our needs. 

We will never learn trust in the unreason by getting our wants met...spoiled children are the proof of that. 

I go with common sense for my day-to-day guardrail, and my daily get-together with God for my failsafe.  

Thank you.
