What does it mean to be an
instrument of God's will? Since we start this life the same way, comprised of
the same basic ingredients, we are all essentially the same "type" of
instrument. So, for this illustration, think radio as the instrument. When I
was a young man cars came equipped with AM radios, FM an option at additional
cost and 8 track tape players the only aftermarket option for enhancing the
musical experience. Since then technology has advanced through cassette
players, CD's, MP 3's and now commercial free satellite radio with hundreds of
channels for every taste; quite an evolution.
Our Spiritual evolution is very
similar. At birth we were simple receivers with limited range. As we grew our
capacity, interests and range increased, our channels becoming more varied and
powerful, some positive, some unfortunately negative. When fear controls the selection,
we are subjected to a continuous diet of morbid reflection in its many guises,
pulling us away from the light of freedom and into depression, selfish and self-centered
thinking and actions. However just as with our radio we can change the channel,
turning from the lower to the higher, embracing love and Divine guidance over fear-based
thinking and living.
So, if there is a negative tune
playing in your minds’ eye turn the channel (like when Hey Mickey from Toni
Basil comes on) to thoughts of hope and peace through directed prayer, meditation
and selfless service becoming Divine instruments of love and guidance, not just
hearing the tune, but becoming it. “Hey Mickey your so fine you blow my mind
hey Mickey” god I hate that song. Forgive me for bringing it up.
