I greet The Indwelling Divine Locator.
Today’s “Pay Forward” gift is – Seek And Find Our Created Self. “It’s quite simple: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eyes” Antoine De Saint-Exupery. What I call divine discontent is that part of our guidance system that is telling us we are acting, feeling or thinking in a way that is contrary to our created Self. It is always present, but too often our conscious mind is dwelling on a useless side track. I am reminded that we did not create, nor do we maintain ourselves; that is beyond humans’ pay grade. It’s an infinite intelligence within each of us doing the works. Alcoholics Anonymous got its beginning in the Oxford Group. Some of our A.A. members had/have a problem accepting the Oxford Group’s Four Absolutes – Love –Unselfishness – Purity – Honesty. At best I can only handle a few short moments at a time. I am ok living A.As’ three essentials – honesty – willingness – open-mindedness. “We are not saints. The point is that we are willing to grow along spiritual lines. We claim spiritual progress rather than spiritual perfection.” To live A.As’ spiritual principles as a way of life, and receiving the promises, involves a real commitment, with our heart, mind, strength and soul; in other words it is seeking, and awakening to our Higher Power and our created Self; it’s a very good investment. I soon found that, “Half measures availed us nothing.” Thy Love, Thy Will be done.
