When we know, who walks beside us, on this path we have chosen, our fears fall from us.

CASH THAT BILL!

Ever find a fiver or ten spot, maybe a twenty in a pocket of a pair of pants or jacket you haven’t worn in a while? Always puts a smile on your face doesn’t it. Ever consider ignoring it or even decide it really has no value? Of course not, that would be foolish. Yet so many do exactly that with the found riches of faith. Students, and not only new ones, of the path will be going along swimmingly for a time and then inexplicably take the reins of their lives back and then wonder why they are struggling. Having begun to Live on the Spiritual Basis and reap the riches of this new life for reasons yet obscure (probably fear) they resort to old ways of thinking and solutions, seemingly forgotten the pain that brought them to the path in the first place, the new solutions of value now valueless. Our path here is clear. When we become aware of old ways of thinking and actions creeping back in, stop immediately and spend that spiritual cash in our pocket on prayer, meditation and service. Oh, and the best part of this found cash is that there is always more, since God is the source, by placing our whole hearted attention on our relationship with Him, our pockets are always full.
