Tsunami of change

There is a new wave of Spirituality coming into our awareness.

  It is being called a world wide eruption 

of love and justice in action

 The wave is calling us to be the love we are and to come together and work for the justice and peace we believe is possible.  This new wave of Spirituality is forming on the horizon of our times.  It is rising up, gathering power and now beginning to move toward shore.

 What happens to this new wave of Spirituality is up to us.

Will we let it be a wave that rolls into shore and disappears? 
Will we let it be a storm surge the roars into shore and soon dissipates?
 Or, will we gather together and bring the wave in as a tsunami of love in action that will change everything?

 Questions waiting for answers.

Change Your Order Today

So you just pulled up to the Universe’s Drive-Through Window, and the voice in the speaker says, “Your order, please.”

Are you going to order the same stuff you usually order? “Yeah,” you say, “give me a helping of anxiety, some seasoned wretchedness, and a supersized cup of despair!”

“Ah, the usual!” says the voice. “We have a special going today: a heaping portion of uselessness at no extra charge. Please pull ahead to the next window.”

 So the Universe hands you more anxiety, wretchedness, and despair. Plus, a huge free helping of uselessness. With fries.

 And you are glad.

That’s a simplification of how your life may have been going—up until now. You are getting exactly what you ordered.

“But,” say you, “I didn’t order that!”

I beg to differ.

At some deep level, you did.

The concept of taking personal responsibility for your life is one that is probably foreign to you. All your life you have believed that you were affected by the world out there. You believed that you have no more power over the course of your life than does a feather in the wind.

That sort of thinking is a mistake.

And mistakes, as noted in A Course in Miracles, are to be corrected, not punished.

Once you decide to open to change, you are going to find much of your present thinking challenged, and if you want to be prosperous, you will find that thinking will [need to] be changed.

Here’s a shocker for you: At some level, buried deep in your subconscious, you may truly believe that you are only worthy of worry and woe.

 You may have received an early massive injection of guilt. Somehow, you may have the idea that you were unworthy of abundance and prosperity.

But you are totally worthy!  All you have to do is change your order.

Why not start today?
