What’s the purpose of it all?
Our goal in the Game of Life, as
individualizations of God, is to grow our consciousness; that means if we
choose to we will gradually become more and more aware of our True Identity.
To encourage our further growth in consciousness, we are occasionally urged
and sometimes inspired to make out-of-the-box BEING choices with the guarantee
that our prayers will be answered.
Once we’ve tested and proven our
manifesting powers to ourselves and have accepted this profound truth of our
BEING as truth for us, we’ll have the world at our fingertips. We’ll be
choosing one daring out-of-the-box adventure after another. The more you
believe in yourself, the more powerful you’ll become and the more spectacular
the results!
Until we’ve truly found our power and
taken charge of our thoughts—the majority of humanity will choose to run and
hide from this truth. That’s because most of us live our lives as our egos.
And our ego is afraid that we will discover just how powerful we really are!
Our survival oriented egos, playing it
safe, will continue to deny us the good life, because it fears what’s outside
the box.
To exemplify our fear of the unknown, I’m
reminded of the Roman generals who tested the courage of prisoners by giving
them two fearful options. They could either fight the hungry lion in the pit
or take their chances with unknown dangers that could lurk behind the black
door.
And which option—the lion or the black
door- do you suppose the majority of those political prisoners chose? Which
one would you choose? It is reported that the majority of his prisoners chose
to fight a hungry lion in the pit rather than face the unknown dangers they
imagined might be hiding behind the black door.
So, what was actually behind that black
door? The generals obviously had a sense of humor. There was nothing but
freedom behind that black door. And, that’s what’s behind our black door—the
freedom to BE in a brand new way.
If we are stuck in the status-quo, it is
because we would rather put up with those undesirable circumstances than face
the unknown reality outside our box.
The truth is, once we have faced our
fears, we will be free to experience life in a grand new way and we will
automatically begin to enjoy the limitless possibilities outside our current
box.
So, here’s a question for you: Are you
tired and fed up with feeling powerless—fed up with feeling like the victim of
your circumstances? Are you ready yet to choose your way out of that box and
BE you in an exciting new way?
Join us next week when we will continue
this discussion with Part II: the only way out is though the “black door”.
Have a great weekend and I look forward to our next meeting.
