No Wishy-Washy Spiritual Living! It doesn't work.

(C) Rhoberta Shaler, PhD

No wishy-washy spiritual living! You know what I mean. It sounds like this:

"Everything is fine. I let go and let God."

and, fifteen minutes later:

"How am I ever going to pay these bills? I don't know what I'm going to do!"

That's wishy-washy. Just like the old tub washing machines used to be, going one way and then the other, and then the other. They called it agitation but it's wishy-washy spirituality.

We're human. We forget principles when our emotions get hooked. We forget God when the television tells us the world is going to ##$$ in a handbasket. We get our knickers in a twist when there is more month than money.

And, we're spiritual beings with choice and free will. That's when we purosefully take ourselves in hand when the wishy-washy stuff begins and set ourselves straight...over and over. No matter how many times we have to do it, we find something to remember: a thought, an image, a quotation. We consciously place it clearly in mind and go in that direction. One like this, perhaps:

"I sense the presence of Life within me. I believe in It. I accept It. My most desirable life is mine now."

Or, my personal favorite:

"I and the Father are one."

That works for me. What works for you? Share it by clicking on 'comments' below and writing.

Many blessings,

Where is the Meeting Point Between Finance & Spiritual Principles?

(C) Rhoberta Shaler, PhD

Yesterday, I was talking with an interesting woman with whom I have much in common. We are both authors and have a strong spiritual foundation we share. We talked about such current topics as:

> creating your reality
> living your beliefs
> The Law of Attraction
> The Law of Mental Equivalents
> consistency of purpose

Some fairly lofty principles. In speaking about the Law of Attraction--an old concept previously well-documented by Ernest Holmes, Founder of Religious Science and called The Law of Cause & Effect coupled with the Law of Mental Equivalents, we both were clear about one thing: if a "Law" works sometimes, it must work all the time. It couldn't be a "Law" (I don't much like that word!) if it was not true all the time.

We talked about The Secret and how it had brought attention to the idea of intentionality in creating outcomes. We agreed that it was a good thing, but not a deep-enough thing. It did not bring folks to the truth that you have to live your spiritual principles every moment, not just when you want something!

So, not to belabour the point, we had agreement on principles! She spoke of the many things she had manifested easily and effortlessly. She knows it all works and how to use it. She teaches it. There was no question in her mind.

As we were ending the conversation she said something interesting,

"I'd love to do something with you if I had any money at all, but, I don't."

And we said "Goodbye."

If a principle works, it works all the time. If it works in one area of life, it works in all areas of life. So, what is the key that needs turning for her to create profit in her life?

What do you think is required?

Let's talk about it here.

I wish you well.
