About

I have heard that if an idea comes to you from three different sources it is spirit trying to show you a truth. I have had the same basic idea come to me by three methods last week. One was through a teleseminar I was listening to; the second time was in a book I was reading. I was consciously waiting for the third time to show up because I felt it was coming. The third time came at church Sunday.

What was this idea? It has to do with the flow of energy or some might say the flow of life.

Life has ebbs and tides and you have to let it come and go. We often ‘buck the flow’. This is such a common thing that we have many sayings for it: kick against the pricks, ruffle his feathers, and rub the cat the wrong way. All are referring to life and trying to work against what is happening.

Life has its lows and its highs. We would all like to be on the high side as much as possible and that is why we try so hard to fight the lows. If we would realize that life is constantly changing the lows will not be so hard to handle. We need to learn to let go and ride with the flow of life. The lows will not last forever and neither will the highs.

Enjoy the highs while they are here but also realize the lows also will pass.
If we fight the lows when they appear, we end up prolonging them. It is almost like our lows have to reach their lowest point before our life can head back upwards. If we fight the lows, it takes a lot longer to get to the bottom of things and we end up suffering longer. Just remember that the lows are times for us to rest and take stock of where we are and where we are headed. Live the moment and feel the moment whether it is a high or a low and life will go smoother.

There is a whole other section on this flow that I will cover on Thursday.
