Faith isn't a difficult task it's a thrilling experience.

This is today's meditation for me from The Science Of Mind. 
Anyone can go seek out and read any number of available texts on Faith and Demonstration/Manifestation. It's gone mainstream. Who hasn't heard of "The Secret"?  

Yet, it takes more, much more, than just listening to a CD or reading volumes of books for ancient secrets and wisdom for prosperity and happiness to become active tools and experiences in our lives. Too often we start and quit. We doubt when we fail to demonstrate. I know I have. We can read ourselves into it we must practice it. Yet, especially adults find it hard because we've learned that "failure" is bad. If we don't begin as a master we want out fast!

Or we try for years and grow increasingly frustrated.

As promised, slowly, I will share my journey but wont rush into it all at once.
We all have our Divine Plan. Some prefer to lives theirs out in quiet. I am one who needs to write it out and put it out there into the world, even as I seek to free myself from the world.  There's always that part of me that hopes and believes that part of my Divine Plan is to inspire and help others help and inspire themselves.

Often I have given pause to the BELIEVE part of the Law of Attraction. IMAGINE .. as you already have it .. FEEL you have it .. and I sit there and think BLANK.

I have come to understand, be aware and know that we are all, always, believing in something. We are all always feeling something, even if that feeling is dead and/or flat. We all believe in something even if in nothing.

This process really isn't a choice .. the choice is whether we actively participate or not and who well we play the game of life as Florence Scovel Shinn would say.

This is where I am today. TRUST. Trust OF God. FAITH. Where is my faith placed? It can't be scattered or divided. That puts me in the hands of ego and out of the Presence Of God.  

So .. this process of Faith. This Law of Attraction, of allowing or receiving, that really all the great mystical teachers are teaching if in different styles and words .. IF it is a struggle it doesn't work. If it is a solo effort it doesn't work. 

It is my meditation today to understand, know and be aware so I may Live the truth .. the Truth .. that it isn't meant to be a task. I/we make it so. It is meant to be a thrilling experience and that is so easy to say and intellectually understand.  

Living a life of abandon in trust and faith Of God is something most of us continue to struggle to do. Good news is it also remains the only way .. and that way is found in Love.  But enough for now .. because, like God, Love is a loaded term that can immediately give rise to resistance and misguided faith in fear.
