HE USED TO DEMONSTRATE

Resting on our laurels. We have all done it, perhaps you are doing it now. Whenever I have, I find in time they dry out, becoming stiff with sharp points, poking me in the… encouraging action. Living on the Spiritual Basis provides unlimited horizons for growth and expansion of our consciousness, but we have to do the work. Think of it this way: We float in a slow moving river, the river of consciousness. Many live their lives simply floating along, seemingly at the mercy of the current, only treading water when seeming calamity looms ahead. When we make a decision to live on a different basis, the basis of trusting and relying upon God we begin treading water in earnest, moving against the current of fear, selfish and self centered pursuits, toward increased awareness and purpose, our consciousness, our relationship/connection with the source improving as we progress. This, however requires conscious and consistent effort on out part. No one spends all of their time in the river. We all climb out from time to time and rest on soft laurel leaves by the bank. The problems begin if we attempt to set up camp. We lose sight of the truth that our destiny rests on our willingness to continue moving forward in our spiritual demonstration. So, when the leaves begin to stiffen, demonstrate renewed willingness, get back in the river, for something wonderful lies just beyond the next bend.
