"If you
limit your choices only to what seems possible or reasonable, you
disconnect yourself from what you truly want, and all that is left is a
compromise." - Robert Fritz
I am humbled by this quote, for it brings me to the realization how many times I have limited myself by what seems possible or reasonable. It brings to mind the idea of faith.
Here is Ernest Holmes' definition of faith in the glossary of The Science of Mind:
"Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." Faith is a mental attitude, so inwardly embodied that the mind can no longer deny it. Faith is complete when it is both a conscious and subjective acceptance. Faith may be consciously generated. In spiritual terminology, faith means a belief in the presence of an invisible principle and law which directly and specifically responds to us. "Thy faith has made thee whole."
Our faith makes us whole, when we breathe and even consider beyond that which we know is possible or reasonable we are made whole and full. All of a sudden we are in alignment with the full possibility of life. Regardless of how I have chosen in the past, I choose today to consider beyond what I think is possible.
One of my favorite philosophers Heraclitus said "Unless you expect the unexpected you will never find [truth], for it is hard to discover and hard to attain."
Are you willing to expect the unexpected? I am, but I realize I have to reconnect with this intention everyday.
Let us expect the unexpected and see what reveals through our lives yes?
I would love to hear any testimonies of any unexpected realization and revelations as a result.
