It's a "beautiful" morning .......nest paux ? |

I suppose everyone knows or has heard of absolution. Have you ? If you are Catholic, no doubt you have run across that term before, maybe a time or two. When one is desparate or hard up for help,
it's customary to accept or reach out for something that you know will do the trick. Hopefully, that is the case, anyway. Well, that is what I did. After tons of Doctors, hospitalizations, pills that don't work,
what's a body to do? One day I decided, to meditate, concentrate on words. I believed that our minds work like a computer and if I believed and put into my mind, positive words or phrases, and did it long enough and deep enough, they would reach down inside me and "would" eventually change my life, and heal me.
I was right. The very first word I chose was "absolution", don't even ask me why. I'm not even sure I knew what it meant. So, when I concentrated and really meditated, believing this concept was REAL,
boy, I discovered "GOD", and drew back instantly, repeating, I don't want you, I only want to be healed. That complete honesty is what opened my LIFE to an extraordinary experience. To this day, 30 years later, I am benefiting from having an open and supremely fantastic relationship with a Deity who
can only do things the way they should be, because He is "LOVE". I smile in my heart because, now, I know when He sets His heart and mind to something, He does do it right, lovingly, and completely.
I wonder how many times I've said to myself, I should have only asked for 1/2 a healing or something that would have been accomplished sooner. Now, today, this day, many years of being handily handled by the POWER of my "Divine" Father, I guess I know that He wouldn't even had considered that
kind of a contract. Letting go of the stubborness and insistence of having my WAY, is and was the hardest. That willfulness is within and is set in stone. It is what makes you & I sick. I know now, that
it isn't our fault that we exercise this willfulness, the system is set up and designed by FEAR, but only to protect us, because we do not really know or believe in God's power of awesome divine LOVE. We
hardly ever see it demonstrated anywhere. I have fought HIM tooth & nail. Fought & fought & fought ....
and fought. You & I do this believing in our own hearts that if we find things out about ourselves, that for centuries we were led to believe "we could not handle the TRUTH".......sound familiar ? Jack Nicholson in I think " A FEW GOOD MEN" ?
Don't you believe it !!! You & I "can" handle the truth about ourselves, come to grips with who we are and this above all, "really and truly "LIKE" ourselves ", with an enormous profound respect and devotion to "One So Dear and Awesome" . That's not much to ask for, since I have gotten so much more in return. More than I ever IMAGINED was even POSSIBLE. I "trust" that you will open the door to your heart, of course, we even need HIS help letting HIM in. It really isn't on our shoulders, but we insist on helping, we really do ! From somewhere deep inside......from FEAR believing it is the ultimate POWER of protection.
We can and are now protected in our "heart of hearts" by the gift of "TRUE LOVE", and nothing and no one can harm us and that includes ourselves. That is the only way we can be harmed anyway, by ourselves. I have seen the "enemy" and the "enemy" is "ME".
See that "ant" on the stand in front, what determination "ants" have... Holy Cow !! |
