Only God’s plan for salvation will work.

“What would You have me do? Where would You have me go? What would You have me say, and to whom?”

I did not hear a response to this request, yet, today.

This prayer from the course I have memorized and repeat to myself on occasion. I feel happy that I am no longer afraid of making this request.

Just now, I got a response to the prayer, and it was something simple that is on my mind. There is a sense of relief which tells me that there is still a lack of trust in God’s plan. I’m always expecting a big life altering message. Instead, God always takes care of me. The requests I receive from God always seem to be what is needed to improve my life.

Thank You, Great Love!

“All things are possible to God.”

With lessons like these, pointing out grievances and putting things ahead of God, my mind typically does not find anything. Things are good in my relationships. My spiritual growth in Love, toward God, is the  most important thing. I accept that I am not seeing all of my blocks to salvation while I sit in my sacred space working on these lessons. Fears, selfishness, judgement, and lack of loving-kindness still come up as I go through my day. I am so much better at living a loving life than I used to be. And I typically notice my mistaken behaviors.

Baby steps.

I would like full blown Christ realization at once. Every year that passes feels like I am on the cusp, but the desire and seeking continue.

A flower comes to mind …

I see myself as a rose who has many petals to loosen to open up to transcendence. Whereas, some people may be simple flowers, like tulips, who can just pop into full beauty. I think of children when I think of tulips.

Do we come onto the Earth as simple enlightened beings in bloom, then fade and go into the Earth to later develop into more complex beautiful beings?

Totally makes sense to me.
