Most of us have home alarm systems. We set them when we're at home or away and feel safer for doing so. And if it ever goes off in a real emergency the dispatcher's voice chimes in asking for the password. Because householders are the only ones who know the password, intruders know they only have minutes to leave before the police come.
How many of you have ever set your alarm off by accident? After your first surprise and irritation with yourself for having set the alarm off, don't you feel a sense of relief realizing that an end to the noise - is just a password away?
Remember when you were youngsters and you had your first nightmare? Wasn't it comforting when one of your family came rushing into your bedroom and explained, "It's okay. I am here." The sound of a parent's voice and a parent's presence were all you would need to feel safe again.
Remember a time more recently when you were in a panic, or lost, or going through a hard time. Remember how it felt when you called a mate. The sound of his or her own voice on the other end of the line was all you required to regain your composure.
We've all been in circumstances like that. The voice I want to talk about in this piece is another voice: the earth's finest alarm system. It is an alarm we Wish to hear! It is the 'still small voice ' "which enables us to see things from the Christ point of view. And we hear that voice in 3 ways:
- when we're relaxed,
- when we meditate, and
- when we pray.
If our consciousness is Christ"centered, we will hear the 'still small voice. ' We will not go astray if we get truly good at hearing the voice. When we meditate, or just relax, we get intuitions. These intuitive flashes are the 'still small voice ' saying: "Here's the remedy. Do this. Don't 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've got the power and the knowledge to handle any situation.
We are the Christ expressing as us and so we've all of the finances we want to do the work we have come here to do.
We are the Christ expressing as us and so the answers to our most urgent questions can come to us with speed, ease, comfort, and joy.
We are the Christ expressing as us and so we will enjoy a life filled with contentment 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 shall master the art of living when we master the art of prayer.
We will master the art of living when we master the art of meditation.
We may master the art of living when we master the art of relaxation.
We will master the art of living when we master the humanities of leniency, and kindness, and compassion, and service.
The really neat thing about it is we have all got the same password. The password is: Peace be still.
Whatever you have facing you this week "a health challenge, more month left than money, an anorexic checking account, unemployment, doubt Hear your intuition, the 'still small voice. ' And remember: You are password protected!
