Thoughts Along the Journey - Verse 40 - Rise and Fall

     Rise and fall, rise and fall - the ego's trip through the bumpy road of life. A hectic ride where one's existence depends on outside approval, accumulation and appearances.

     I did not know that insults, injuries, injustices, betrayals and obstacles were signposts leading me back to what is real, true and of the Spirit.

In these seemingly misfortunes and weaknesses, can I yield gracefully and gratefully to the loving Spirit that shows me the way back to It?

     The ego bristles and rages, lashing out to protect itself from life's so called "threats".  Puffed up on its own delusions, it does not know the gentle voice that whispers, "yield, return and be My own."
