Inlightened Enterprises - Midlife Women Blog

Nothing directly to do with midlife - but this story was so great, I wanted

to share it..   Life is so much more than we know.

Every Friday, we buy a bag of groceries for a number of families in
our Work-For-Food Program. On one particular Friday, we set a clear
intention to provide the groceries - even though we didn’t have the
cash to do it. To make things even more exciting, we had been
without a telephone dial tone for several days, and were waiting for
the phone company to fix it.

So it was fun later that morning when the phone rang.

The call came from a couple we had never met, but who were traveling
from San Jose, the capitol city, to Puerto Viejo. “I saw on your
website that you provide bags of food”, the husband said. “If you
give us a shopping list, we’ll buy them here and bring them down
today.” Nanci gave him the shopping list, and hung up the phone.

We picked up the phone a few minutes after the call. No dial tone.

The groceries arrived, and the families got their much-needed food.

The phone company fixed the line on Monday.

Loaves, fishes, and SOM kind of utility.

Let us speak vehemently to God in Heaven, whose Presence is in our midst, as
though He would surely obey. We know that He only is greatest in our midst;
and Jesus Christ said, “He that is greatest among you shall be your servant.”
H.B. Jeffery, “Mystical Teachings” 27,9

Dare to speak, and to know that what you speak is the law unto the thing
spoken, regardless of what conditions exist. SM 184,3

Jeffery and Holmes tell us we are not to be shy when we claim our desires. We
are to “speak vehemently to God” according to Jeffery, and Dr. Holmes wrote
so many times that the Law (God in Action) is our servant. That being so, then
we must be clear and specific as to what we want “God” to do! Knowing this, we
should never again approach the Throne of Heaven with bowed head, dragging
feet, and hesitant mien. Stand Up! Speak Up! Claim and then EXPECT to receive
exactly what we desire. WOW, what a piece of work we are!

The One Mind, powerful, wise, and unlimited, is present in all of creation,
for It has made all of us out of the only substance available…..Itself! That
means that I am an out-picturing of this One! It has given of Itself to me,
without any reservations. What is true of me, has to be true of all people,
because we all come from that One Mind, the Creative Force called God.

I now command “God” to reveal to all of us that Peace, Prosperity, Love, and
Wholeness is our nature. We are to experience those properties in every aspect
of our Lives. THAT is the way of God! THAT is the true way of mankind. I
direct this One Mind to speak so clearly that there can be no misunderstanding on
our part as to what the world really is and what we are to have Universally.
As that happens, the life on our planet becomes Love expressed, Wisdom
understood, and Power used wisely by all! We are infinitely blessed.

I am so thankful for those who came before us with their deep understanding
of Truth, and that they had the courage to SPEAK and WRITE that Truth so we,
today, can know It and experience It. I am thankful for this Law that responds
to us, obeys us, and provides that which we desire and can accept.

I now let the Law do Its perfect work in accomplishing that which I have
claimed. I do NOT know how to do it, but the Law’s wisdom encompasses any claim I
or we can make and accept. God obeys us! We are truly blessed.
