Resting on our laurels. We have all done it; perhaps you
are doing it now. Whenever I have, I find the leaves quickly dry out, becoming
stiff with sharp points resulting in restlessness and discontentment, encouraging action.
Living on the Spiritual Basis
provides unlimited horizons for growth and the expansion of our
consciousness, but we have to take the action. Think of it this way: Our
consciousness floats in a slow moving infinite river, the river of
connection to everyone and everything, Source immanent. When we
made the decision to live on a different basis, the basis of trusting
and
relying upon a Power Greater Than Ourselves we choose to move away from
fear, selfish and self centered pursuits and toward increased
awareness and purpose, our consciousness, our relationship/connection
with source improving as we progress. This however requires steadfast
and consistent effort on our part.
No one spends all of their
time in the river. We all climb out from time to time for a variety of reasons, resting on the
soft laurel leaves along the bank generated from the spiritual work we have done. The problems begin if we attempt to set
up camp, losing sight of the truth that our growth rests in our
willingness to continue moving forward in our spiritual demonstration and awakening.
So, when the leaves begin to stiffen and they will, take note and get
back in the river, for something wonderful lies just beyond the next
bend.
