MAGIC vs. MINDFUL

Where does the split come between magic thinking and mindful living? According to me, magic thinking is the trap of the reasoning mind...mindful living is our spiritual quest.

"God Calling" today gives permission to believe that all things are yours -- that what is lovely I delight to give you. Further, empty your mind of all that limits. Whatever is beautiful you can have. Leave more and more the choice to Me. You will have no regrets. In the first paragraph, however, we find a deeper instruction: With the heart, not the head, men should think of Me. Then further on, keep the eye of your spirit ever upon Me, the window of your soul open towards Me. 

When presented with the promise that all things are ours for the thinking, our material mind will ever think...materially. As in, financial security for life...money, Honey...or excellent health until we die peacefully in our sleep after most but not all of our loved ones are gone.

If we've been paying any attention at all, however, we know spiritual growth is all about ask for the moon but let heart, soul, body and brains realize that the moon we seek is a higher, ever higher, consciousness...Christ consciousness...God consciousness. Leave more and more the choice to Me. 

I'm guessing there is no lack to a beggar on the street who lives in God consciousness...poverty is the beggar's choice in order better to be free to Be in God Consciousness.

Can we really believe God's choice for us is going to be big bucks? Or for that matter, anything other than a higher consciousness of Him deeper within? If so, why?

Choose you this day whom ye will serve. -- Joshua 24:15

Thank you.
