I have a friend…let’s call her Katie – who is a coach and she is really focused on getting new clients right now. She has some but wants more and she was sharing with me how she wants more clients but in the same breath she started talking about this thing that was on Facebook and how it was distracting her.
In that moment, it was so crystal clear to me from the 30K foot level looking down that there we so many of these clients that God/Spirit really wanted and had for her. I could see who she spiritually was, I could see these clients that were attracted to her I could see that people wanted to work with her, but she was so blocked, so distracted by this wall of what was going on on Facebook that she couldn’t see these clients trying to reach out to her. She was so focused and distracted, she put up her own mental block.
This reminded me of a passage on page 495 in Science & Health by Mary Baker Eddy:
When the illusion of sickness or sin tempts you, cling steadfastly to God and His idea. Allow nothing but His likeness to abide in your thought. Let neither fear nor doubt overshadow your clear sense and calm trust…”
That block, that “illusion” is mortal mind. Mortal mind will come and try to prevent you from whatever it is that you’re trying to accomplish. Spirit/God whatever the Universe wants to give to you abundantly and in fact already is right now. But little things will come up to try and distract you. We are all meant to serve and doing what we are called to do and God wants to support us and is support us. But mortal mind is going to come in and try to distract you from doing the work we are meant to and if you can see that wall then you can break it down.
But know that you can say, “nope! Don’t do that”, or, as Jesus said, “Get behind me Satan” Matthew 16:23
You can kick out mortal mind, or error, those false mental suggestions and be really aware. Notice how those suggestions can show up in so many ways. It can show up as an argument with someone, it could be something on facebook, it could be something in the political realm, could be something on tv, it could be your environment, it could be the weather, it could be your laptop fritzing out.
Just be aware. Because all the good that your meant to do, and all the things that you’re meant to receive are right here waiting for you. God is providing, the Universe is providing, Spirit is providing for you right now.
