It's time for a Wonder Check.
We've all been faced with reality checks - let's take time for a
wonder check. A reality check is something we know - it's
when the needle of reality pops the bubble of some image in our
mind. What about a wonder check? A wonder check is when
we get to see that something that has caused us to wonder actually
is a wonder - and worth wondering about!
A reality check brings us face-to-face with illusions and points
out the fact that they are illusions. A wonder check does the
absolute opposite. A wonder check lets us remember to grasp
the greatness of something before we get so busy with the details
that we forget.
The Divine is a great subject for a wonder check - so many people
put limits on the Divine. And how would it even be possible
to limit the infinite? That's the double problem. One
part of the problem is remembering the infinite nature of the
Divine. The other part is the fact that some folks actually
try to force the Divine into their own pre-conceived notions of
what the Divine is supposed to be like.
There are some wonderful implications here, too.
So, let's explore a wonder check!
Blessed Be!
I have been a faithful listener since the very beginning of your podcast and I just had to write a note and tell you how much comfort each of your podcasts brings. Thank you so much for all your work. Bright Blessings to you and your Lady. I have been sending peaceful thoughts to your friend.
Thanks to all!
He is not \"out of the woods\" yet by a long shot, and he has not even regained consciousness. But he has become responsive - you can see him respond to what he hears. I said a special prayer for him, and let him know how many people were praying for him. And I had no idea how many that was going to turn out to be!
I don\'t think that I can take much of the credit for what goes on here. Someone is certainly prodding me, though.
Blessed Be!
