What if you knew you had access to unlimited resources?
The source of all material wealth is Divine Substance. It is the spiritual consciousness that connects us with the infinite, abundant universe. It is available to us 24/7. However, we have to be willing and conscious recipients of the wealth.
When we connect our spiritual path as part of our daily activity, there is a divine flow of life. When we are open and receptive all sorts of blessings are available to us. We may occasionally bump up against thoughts of lack or limitation. When the mind has been trained through dedicated practice, we can redirect our thoughts back to love instead of lack, freedom instead of limitation.
Divine Substance is more than wealth. It is the experience of being open to the richness of the universal flow. It’s our disciplined thinking that uses the mind constructively to bring about right results.

Would you rather be right or rather be loved?
It is very popular to play the blame game in today’s society. We have gotten into the habit of finding a scapegoat, someone to blame for the problems of the world. We blame the government, stock market, banks, wealthy people, poor people, big business, other countries and our parents for the pain and suffering of today’s world. We are busy pointing fingers and worrying about what others are doing or not doing.
It’s so easy to observe what others are doing and to give advice how they should change their behavior. Actually it is a way to avoid looking at our own mental blocks and conflicts. What is most important on our spiritual journey is paying attention to what we are doing, thinking and saying.
Having compassion for ourselves and others opens us to love and be loved. Love is the awakening of Christ in us. Love is the healing power beyond judgment and blame. There is always a choice. So would you rather be right or be loved?

Are we there yet? Regardless of the age of our physical body, our inner being has the excitable qualities of a five year old anxiously wanting to get to the prize. Life teaches us that sometimes the things we want take time and if we want to stay sane in the process, it is imperative to develop patience.
I’ve learned that patience is less about waiting and more about developing faith. Living in faith is a place of knowing that I am on the right path. There are days that I may struggle with my faith and sense of well being. This too shall pass. As I stay on purpose and in practice I can connect with the bigger picture of life.
Gratitude helps us develop patience. As we identify the blessings we have already received, we open to the greater Good God has to give. Fillmore reminds us “Begin to praise God for the abundance of all things; your words will crack the omnipresent ethers and good will flow to you from every direction.”

Clogged sink, taxes due, car repair needed. The mind goes on overwhelm and spirals downward with thoughts of fear and scarcity. Am I going to give my power to my fear thoughts or on spiritual principle?
There are principles or laws that are constantly at work in the world around us. We know there is a law of gravity. We can’t see it or feel it but we know without it we would be left floating around the universe. We know gravity is there and we depend on it to keep us grounded.
By being aware of the spiritual laws, we can put our attention on them and use them to our benefit. For example, spiritual principle states ‘Whatever we put our attention on increases.’ I can spend my time in worry or in faith that everything I need will be provided.
Fillmore states, “To demonstrate Principle keep establishing yourself in affirmations of the law. The more often you present to your mind a logical and true proposition, the stronger becomes the inner feeling of the realization.”
I choose the principle of peace today knowing that everything I need is already provided. Praise God!
Affirmation: “Principle is Truth. I know the Truth and the Truth makes me free.” Keep a True Lent by Charles Fillmore

As a child in Catholic school, I often imagined the opulence and mystery of heaven. It seemed to be a magical place where there was peace, love and all the ice cream I could eat. However, there seemed to be a lot of stuff to do (or not do) before I could be good enough to live there.
I now understand that the blessings of heaven are available to me now. When I align myself with spiritual principles to find my own peace of mind, it feels heavenly. I can experience heaven when I live in the consciousness of love, releasing resentment, anger and separation.
With enough attention, discipline and persistence, I can live in a heavenly state of awareness. However, unlimited ice cream is another lesson for another time.
