We have found much of heaven and we have been rocketed into a fourth dimension of existence of which we had not even dreamed. -- Anonymous
I am a believer that it was the gift of grace that moved us out of relying on our reasoning mind, that being rocketed into the 4th dimension gave us God's tools to use in rebuilding our life...that our life today depends on our not relying on our reasoning mind. That was once all we knew, and, a-hem, 'twas a tish less than reliable.
A solid spiritual foundation is never finished, explaining the insistence on still more spiritual growth. For that we detach from our reliance on our reasoning mind which can only be done by building our trust in God...which can only be done by detaching from our reliance on our reasoning mind. There it is...the circle completing itself.
When my goal in life became to trust God rather than my reasoning mind, my inner life began to determine my walking around world. I can rely on my reasoning mind for the ho-hums of life...do I want to go here or go there, do this or do that? For the curve-ball, deeper problems of life, I seek the here-and-now God of my understanding...the one who shows up as my mentor, my friends...ah, my blinding flashes of the obvious.
I listen, I pray, I rely on my hard-earned spiritual acumen, and when (not if) wrong, I promptly admit it...the majority of the time (when pinched is 51 percent).
Love and laugh...don't take yourself too seriously. The fourth dimension in a wrap.
Thank you.
