Accessing Graces for Pentecost: Step Two

Rid yourself of the inner reptiles of the “reasonable mind” that obstruct your inner graces from bringing about healing within yourself and in the world around you.  Unhealthy patterns of response often seem reasonable on the surface, but we know this is false when they lead to bad outcomes.  Consider any habits of mind that might be blocking your graces.

What lesson has this pandemic taught you about your own unhealthy patterns?  How will you make the change this lesson calls you to?

Accessing Graces for Pentecost: Step One

Use this time to prepare yourself to fully access the graces offered by the Holy Spirit.  Rid yourself of the false reasoning that might prevent you from fully accessing all of the graces.  For example, do you think the current crises the world is facing are a result of karma?  Karma is real. What goes around comes around, but karma is not a problem-solving strategy. It cannot fix or explain anything that is going wrong in the world. Pain and suffering are integral part of life.  They spur us on to our higher purpose.  Embrace this moment of change
