Divine Detour!

Have you ever wondered why things aren't happening fast enough in your life? Why you've prayed and it just isn't appearing? It's like you are trying to get down a road a certain way and you just keep getting detoured and turned in another direction far from your destination. You eventually get there, but the trip can be exhausting.

I used to think I was being stopped and held up in achieving what I considered my goals. I was putting it out there and wondering why it wasn't happening. As I look over my life, I realize that what seemed like a detour was merely another stepping stone in my divine evolution. I call it a Divine Detour. That is the new way I look at the process of my journey to totally embodying my unity with Spirit.

My spiritual mentor, James Mellon says when something shows up in our life and keeps showing up, we need to really look at that thing. What is it here to teach us? Ernest Holmes teaches us to turn entirely away from the condition which seems contrary to the above statement. It's not. When looking at the condition, whatever it is, with fearless God eyes, we are open to see it as what it is--a Lie, not an entity, not REAL. So, therefore in looking we are turning away from the condition and looking at the Truth.

Thoughts are things, and things are thoughts. That's all. The formless is in the form and everything changes in a moment with a change of thought. It's all how you look at it and I am committed to looking at everything with my Spiritual eyes.

I already know that everything I require is right here. It is just a matter of opening my mind, to seeing it. How much of God can I know? As much of God as I become. This Divine Detour I've been on has revealed my Spiritual nature to me. It has given me the opportunity to learn to see the gifts that are present all the time. My Divine Detour gives me the opportunity to be in the moment, to know that right where I am is right where I am supposed to be. It would never have met the wonderful people I know today if not for my Divine Detour. My Divine Detour gets me out of the way of outlining how things should be happening and allows me to let go and let them happen.

When I trust my Divine Detour, I see that it isn't a detour at all. It is Divine Evolution Taking over my life. It is realizing that as Jesus said "The Kingdom of Heaven is at Hand!" It is not coming. We are each the miracle, and now it is time to bring this miracle into the world and let it live as us.
