I seem to be in the process of having my mind changed...not against my will, but without my even being consulted.
I cannot quote the exact wording, but here's my interpretation of what I heard recently: "We must not hide our spiritual assets...they may be what fulfills anothers' need. This is not permission to preach...it simply allows for our reasoning mind to take a back seat to our raised consciousness."
We recall again that nothing is original to us...with the expanded realization that every word from our mouth must originate in our own consciousness. We learn early, and relearn often, that our raised consciousness is not in our control...It speaks, we blink in wonder, then silently pray our thank you.
Ours is to prime the pump of our consciousness to speak Its own words...risking failure, i.e., a red face. Ah, embarrassment, the well-hidden pearl beyond price...when we can laugh at our own self and love it.
I'm convinced embarrassment does more work for God than all our sincere efforts. Only God could convince us to laugh at our own self...in public and unself-defended.
Embarrassment rivals fear for sending us to God quick, fast and in a hurry...lifted into raised consciousness, it is of God, changed from a minus to a plus. Ah, egoic mortification exchanged for spiritual love and laughter.
God's will...always and all ways.
Thank you.
