Facts Change in the Light of Truth

Every notice how facts change in the light of truth.  For years it was believed that the earth was flat and that belief was considered a fact until is was discovered that the world was round.  Just imagine how the people of that time conformed their lives to the belief the earth was flat and even some were afraid to venture to far for fear of falling off the edge of the world!

How about the fact that it was considered healthier to eat margarine than butter and now we know the opposite is true.  Think of how many people replaced butter with margarine in their diets in light of that belief.

Remember when eggs were considered very bad because of high cholesterol.  A lot of people eliminated eggs from their diets because of that belief.  Now research suggest that they are not bad at all, and they are actually healthy for you.  

What I'm alluding to is this, you conform your life to facts you believe to be true and when you conform your life around beliefs that are not true you limit your possibilities.  You see, belief in a fact, true or false holds your life within the limits of that belief.  Thus, I employ you to examine the facts and beliefs that you allow to take root in your mind.

Jesus, said two very simple things many years ago, "It is done unto you as you believe", and "you shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free."  Now those are two facts that will never change.

You are Designed for Success

Have you ever thought about all the wonderful things that happen within your body to sustain your life?  In every breath you take there is an exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide in your lungs, in every beat of your heart blood is circulated throughout your entire body, in just the movement of your fingers millions of nerve impulses happen instantaneously.   All the billions of interactions that take place within your body each minute of every day is mind blowing and they all happen without your conscious effort.

Now think about this, would a God that took the time to design such a complex and wonderful creation as you ever want you to live an ordinary life?  No, you are God's gift to the world, designed by It's hand to live an extraordinary life.  You are made for success, why else are you so magnificently created?

In What Do You Trust

Recently, I was sitting outside and enjoying a beautiful sunrise,  I could feel the warmth of the sun rays on my face bathing me in a spirit of peace and harmony.  All was good with the world in that moment.  Then, it occurred to me that I didn't have to put forth any effort to make the sun to rise and enjoy it's warmth.

Ever think about how the sun rises and sets without your effort and if for only one day the sun did not rise all life on earth would die.  There is an universal Loving Intelligence which governs the rising and the setting of the sun without any help from you and I.  This same Loving Intelligence created you and I out of Itself and will govern our lives just as It causes the sun to rise and set if we trust in It.

But, being human you and I think that we know best how to run our lives, so we struggle and strain to force our way in the world while there is a Loving Intelligence that patiently awaits to guide us effortlessly through life.  All we have to do is to totally trust in It, just as we trust the sun to rise each day.

The Answer is in Letting Go

Do you often you find yourself struggling to maintain something in your life whether it be your income, your health, or a relationship.  This means you are trying to do things through your own human effort.  You grit our teeth and try to plow right through the situation.  There is an easier way to live, it's called letting go and letting God.

Even Jesus, the Master Teacher said, "of myself I can do nothing, it is the Father in me that does the work."  You see Jesus knew just as all great spiritual masters know, the Power that created the Universe, and causes the sun to rise and set also created you and I.  This Loving Intelligence we call God will maintain and sustain us if we but let It do so.

Have you ever struggled with an issue for so long that it wore you down and you threw up you hands and gave up, and shortly thereafter the problem was magically solved.  That's because you gave up on solving the problem through your own human effort and you let it go and the moment you let go, God revealed the perfect answer.

You see God is your loving Father who will govern, guard, and guide you in all you do when you let go of the need to do things your way.  So, when you find yourself struggling with the problems of life, just let go and let God.

Truth Heals All

Many people struggle with a feeling that something in their lives needs fixing and they go here and there looking for the solution when all they need do is look inside themselves for the answer.  For, all healing is nothing more than the realization of your unity with God.  Seek this union in your prayers and all things in your life will be made whole, and you will lose that feeling of something needing to be fixed in your life.

One of my favorite mantras is, there is nothing to be healed, only Truth be revealed.
