Nearly All of us have home protection systems. We set them when we are at home or away and feel safer for doing this. And if it ever goes off in a actual emergency the dispatcher's voice chimes in asking for the password. Because owners are the lone ones who know the password, interlopers know they only have minutes to leave before the police come.
What number of you might have ever set your alarm off inadvertently? After your 1st surprise and irritation with yourself for having set the alarm off, don't you experience a sensation of relief knowing that the end to the noise - is simply a password away?
Remember when you were kids and you had your first nightmare? Wasn't it comforting when one of your family came rushing into your bedroom and declared, "It's OK. I am here." The sound of a parent's voice and a parent's presence were all you required to feel safe again.
Remember a time more recently when you were in a panic, or lost, or going thru a difficult time. Remember how it felt when you called a friend. The sound of his or her voice on the other end of the line was all you wanted to regain your composure.
We have all been in situations like that. The voice I would like to talk about in this article is another voice: the world's best alarm system. It's an alarm we Would like to hear! It's the 'still small voice ' "which permits us to see things from the Christ perspective. And we hear that voice in three ways:
- when we are relaxed,
- when we meditate, and
- when we pray.
If our consciousness is Christ"centered, we're going to hear the 'still small voice. ' We won't go astray if we get extremely good at hearing the voice. When we meditate, or simply relax, we are getting intuitions. These intuitive flashes are the 'still small voice ' saying: "Here's the solution.. Do this. Do not do that. Wait. Don't wait.
Intuitions are cosmic e-mails from the Christ Presence inside us. They are our Christness talking to us. As we are the Christ expressing as us, we are pre-wired to recognize the voice. It's in our spiritual DNA. We are password protected because we have immediate accessibility to the greatest security system in the world: the still small voice. And the password is: Peace be still.
You and I are the Christ expressing as us and so we can claim perfect health and wholeness.
We are the Christ expressing as us and so we have the power and the wisdom to handle any situation.
We are the Christ expressing as us and so we have all of the finances we need to do the work we have come here to do.
We are the Christ expressing as us and therefore answers to our most important questions can come to us with speed, ease, comfort, and joy.
We are the Christ expressing as us and so we are able to enjoy a life stuffed with happiness and spiritual enlightenment.
When we hear the 'still small voice, ' an easy flash, an aha, a cosmic email, we will always stay in integrity. The 'still small voice ' comes when we are calm, when we are composed, when we are prayerful.
We may master the art of living when we master the art of prayer.
We intend to master the art of living when we master the art of meditation.
We intend to master the art of living when we master the art of relaxation.
We intend to master the art of living when we master the arts of forgiveness, and kindness, and compassion, and service.
The genuinely neat thing about it is we all have the same password. The password is: Peace be still.
Whatever you've got facing you this week "a health challenge, more month left than money, an anorexic checking account, unemployment, uncertainty Listen to your intuition, the 'still small voice. ' And remember: You are password protected!
