Morning blinding flash of the obvious: That which I seek from God I must give to my enemy.
That BFO was from 2017...I came across it and realized it needs to go a tish further, as in: That which I seek from God I must give to my enemy without conscious thought or effort.
When we do the next thing in our daily life sans overwrought conscious thought or preplanning, we are living God's will, God's way. It is thinking and planning for a desired outcome that ties us to the material mind.
The hard lesson to learn is this does not preclude our being wrong...which is just what we are trying so hard to avoid. Yet, as Fr Richard Rohr has written, We don't get to God by doing it right, we get to God by doing it wrong. I doubt that is going to be taken from us when, apparently, that's life's go-to plan.
To realize the spiritual nature of accepting not being released from the fear of being wrong is to live with God unconsciously. We are richly blessed whether we know it or not...angels unaware.
Thank you.
