A PERFECT NOW... FRIENDS- I read this recently: "In the realm of Mind there are no limitations save those which are self-imposed. In our everyday living we seem bound by time, space, and money. Often our health limits our living freely, or our hurts and pride keep us from pleasant experiences. Isaiah, like other Biblical teachers, reveals to us the freedom of the Spirit. He tells us that there is a way of living mentally where we are unbound, unfettered, free. This is the same teaching which Jesus gave us in his concept of the Kingdom of Heaven as being possible here on earth for those who will think rightly and aspire greatly. Freedom begins and ends in our consciousness. As we turn in thought to the unlimited possibilities of what we are in God, we begin to be freed from the limitations of matter and material laws. This must be done mentally, and we who love God do it and prove that freedom is a reality." Science of Mind Magazine, Page 57 I believe that all that I am writing this to today... know this. But, have we made it our own? Or, do we just give it lip service? Have we taken this knowledge to heart and live it? "...no limitations save those which are self imposed." How many limitations do we accept throughout our day? "...seem bound by time, space and money." Oh yes... How many excuses... how much do we deprive ourselves... because of not trusting Spirit and limiting our acceptance of time, space or money? How much effort do we make in "...a way of living mentally where we are unbound, unfettered, free." Reminds me of something I read in the book The Sandpiper... "Life unfettered springs to life, and love to love. In the presence of God's cleansing sunlight everything is purely innocent and hence truly beautiful." We could say, "In the presence of one's right thinking..." if we accept that we are God (Spirit). Well, today I choose... and, it is my choice... to live life unbound, unfettered and free. Today I choose to live in Harmony with all of myself... physically, intellectually, emotionally and spiritually... in right thinking so I can feel the cleansing sunlight of everything as purely innocent and hence truly beautiful. And, I choose to remember this each day of my life. And, IT IS SO. May Each Moment Only Bring Richard Thomas "Rev. DEACON" Stankey and His Friends Greater: Abundance - Forgiveness - Gratitude - Guidance - Harmony - Health - Inspiration - Joy - Love - Passion - Peace of Mind - Peace of Mind - This has more meaning to me then the rest of the words of this blessing. Since the mid-seventies when I felt that I actually achieved a greater level of peace of mind, many have heard me say, "Once you achieve peace of mind, all else will just fall in place." Abundance, Forgiveness, Gratitude, Guidance, Harmony, Health, Inspiration, Joy, Love, Passion, Wisdom and whatever else is of Spirit will just flow themselves into every facet of your life.When you have peace of mind, there are no worries or concerns about anything. No mind-chatter exists to bring about the doubts. When you have peace of mind, you can know what Spirit is sharing with you. You do not have a thought, and pass by it... ignore it... unhearing. Peace of mind is what allows us to know what Spirit is saying to us. If freedom begins and ends in our consciousness... and our consciousness is mind... then, keeping the mind at peace will certainly bring us freedom. I know I do not feel very free when I am in the middle of mind-chatter, not knowing whether to go right or left... forward or backwards. I personally find this very limiting. Abundance... I remember in this time of peace of mind that money just flowed to me. I received a lot of 'unexpected' income. I remember forgiveness just was. It was not judgmental, it was the right way. Gratitude was with me all the time. I just saw the beauty in everything. Harmony... I was harmonious with all of life. Health... my mind was healthy; therefore my body was healthy. Inspiration... I was having such a good time that I was always inspired... everything I was experiencing turned me on. Joy... I felt alive... truly alive... all of me. How can you not feel joy when everything is like living in bliss. Love... there was something within me that felt so caring to everything. Seems funny, but when judgementalness does not exist... only love does. Maybe it is because you are letting Spirit take each step with you. Passion... Oh Yes... it was not a question. Everything was fun... I mean really Fun. I had this passion to experience what was next. And wisdom... I just knew what was the right way. My decisions were made with Spirit's involvement and one does not make mistakes when one is in harmony with "the all knowing". Yes... peace of mind is the major answer. When one has peace of mind, all the other parts of this blessing can flow to you without limits. For there is no mind-chatter to get in the way. Today, as I am renewing my awareness... as I am again progressing... I wonder why I ever let peace of mind slip away from me. But, that is just mind-chatter playing with me. It matters not. For what is important is 'now'... not the past. The only thing important is the process by which I achieved peace of mind before. " Right now, I am accepting and knowing that I have learned the lessons..." And, I have implemented doing the Affirmations stating who I am... who I choose to be. I have implemented reading and placing in my mind spiritual material that quickens my intellect and reminds me. I have implemented taking the time several moments in my day of just being without thought in order to allow Spirit in communion with me. Those moments of confusion or mind-chatter... I am controlling rather than let it control me. And, serious meditation in the morning and at night. And, I am finding again, that time just seems to stand still. That my daily tasks seem to take a lot less time than before. Funny how that happens when one allows Spirit to assist in the flow of what you are doing. "I know how to do this task... how to plan my day... how to do my job... so Spirit leave me alone." Bullshit! "Spirit show me... the best way I can do this.""YUPPERS! I am again realizing and experiencing peace of mind. And, slowly but surely, through my daily practices I am growing constantly in my communion with Spirit. And, I am experiencing the flow again of all the rest of the blessing... I am becoming free from limitations... I am truly making this "I AM" my project in life. I again know freedom. I am changing the residence of my mind and moving into the Kingdom of Heaven. And, IT IS SO!" Namaste' My Friends, Rev DEACON
