Live Well & Prosper
Everyone, everyone I meet is my brother, my sister in
God as I understand Him. Everyone is directly related to me through the
Divine Source. We all spring from Him like trees from Mother Earth. I need
to see everyone as divine, including me, whether they know or act like it. I
need to get to know them and let them know me. Even if I’m just taking small
steps in that direction, I’m making valuable progress. It is my duty to
myself, my family and my God to consistently remember the divinity of the
All, to recognize and respect it in every person I meet.
When
I forget the above, I’ve got no right or reason to despair or disparage my
lapse. I cannot treat the Craig expression of the Divine Source in that
way. Instead, I take some time to try to understand what I need to learn
from the situation as soon as possible and return to living well and
prospering in the meantime.
Survival Mode
Is when I fall into the pattern of forgetting my source
and my heritage in the Divine. It can feel miserable and painful. It
wastes precious time. It has no nobility or reason and is a disservice to
God as I understand Her. It’s a strong reminder that I need to get back to
living well…now.
