Sharing my experiences and understandings of the Great I AM.

Be Lawful!

on March 6, 2013

The laws of physics (i.e.-gravity) are easy to obey.  We cannot get around them.  If I hold something up in the air and let go of it, it will drop. Plain and simple.  There is no arguing, there is no wishing it won’t happen.  I simply know as I am sure you do, that I cannot change it.  I trust that there is a reason for it and that it serves a purpose. That particular law makes it possible for my feet to touch and walk the ground.  If I want to walk without touching the ground, I either go into space or a swimming pool.  There are other laws of physics that I am not as versed in, but I am pretty certain I do not fight those either. I have come to see there are spiritual laws as well.  Those are the laws that create peace in my heart, breath in my well-being and love in my reality.  Deepak Chopra has written a book on the spiritual laws of success, Don Miguel Ruiz wrote a book called the Four Agreements, the Hebrew book of Deuteronomy speaks of God’s law of people and the ten commandments.  All around us are laws that speak to our spirit and our heart.  When I turn a blind eye to them I find no peace.  I am definitely not an expert in  spiritual law but I can speak to my own experience of following such direction and of not following it.  I know that when I practice forgiveness and acceptance my mind and my heart flow in rhythm and life is filled with hope.  When I give my full attention to the moment, I am connected and grateful and recognize that I am exactly where I am supposed to be.  When I let go of the idea that things are not the way they are “supposed” to be and accept that they are and there is something I can learn from, I find myself smiling a little more.  The spiritual laws are those that govern our heart and our spirit.  The laws that create peace amongst our fellows, and help us to live in hope free from anger and resentment.  My fighting of those laws (in whatever language or style I understand them) is no more fruitful than when I fight gravity.  What are the spiritual laws in your life that you are fighting?  What would it take to let them go for today?  My prayer for you today is that you ask God to show you one spiritual law happening in your life that you can practice to bring you peace.  Make it a great one!  Peace~Colleen
