The Gravity Of Opportunity

There are many laws, both secular and spiritual. Man’s laws fill untold volumes and are constantly being amended, added to, ignored and broken. But what of the Spiritual “laws”: The Law of Retribution, the Law of Unintended Consequence, Reaping and Sowing and others? What sets these laws apart from the laws of Man is that they are totally impersonal in application, like the law of gravity, if we fall we will continue falling until something breaks our fall. Whether it is 1 foot or ten thousand, it happens every single time, rich or poor, famous or infamous, a Hitler or a Mother Teresa, the law of gravity plays no favorites, cannot be bribed or ignored. And just as gravity, no appeal ever suspends Spiritual laws, for if they could be we would live in a chaos not a universe.

The Law of Opportunity is one of these laws. Living on the Spiritual Basis we now understand this life is but a moment in eternity, we existed before this flesh was conceived and will exist beyond its return to the dust and ashes from whence it came. Our job, our only real job in this life is to learn and grow in effectiveness so when a difficulty surfaces, an opportunity for demonstration, we chose the right course of action. Living on the Spiritual Basis, in touch with source, we treat these occasions with prayer and meditation knowing there is something to be learned that will improve and ultimately clarify our connection with God. By demonstrating over the problem by reliance on source, we demonstrate to others, by our actions, the truth of spiritual living.

Theory is fine in the classroom but demonstration is the measure, the attraction. The Law of Opportunity is one of God’s ways of providing us choice, to grow in understanding and expression, applying our free will justly. So what is our choice to be when opportunity knocks, reliance on the infinite, God, or the finite, ourselves? Choose wisely, I’ll get the door.
