In the United States, there is a budget crisis looming in Washington, DC, if Congress and the President don’t agree on certain taxes to increase and spending cuts to make by December 31st. If no agreement is reached, pundits have described the fallout in terms of our economy going over the “fiscal cliff.” It’s a long way down and bad news at the bottom, they predict.
For millions of business people and interested citizens alike, it has been maddening, frustrating, and demoralizing to watch the players of government unable, and/or unwilling, to unite and perform the function of governing the economy responsibly.
But there is a spiritual perspective that helps.
From a spiritual point of view, the real economy that supports and sustains life and being is divine, managed and governed by the one Mind that acts responsibly and timely.
When human government fails us, it’s a call to go higher, to the divine government, for reliable support and supply.
And we can do this.
Each of us has a direct line to the abundance and blessings of divine Love that meet every human need.
Material streams may dry up, but the blessings of God continue to multiply.
If Washington, DC, allows the material economy to go “over the cliff,” our thinking and expectations don’t have to go over with it. We can find ways to prosper anyway.
Put your expectations into God and keep on flourishing with divine help despite events or nonevents in DC. What man cannot do, God can do.
“To those leaning on the sustaining infinite, to-day is big with blessings.” ~MaryBaker Eddy
Lean on God hard, and keep those blessings flowing!
Thank you for your nonjudgmental thought. “…be not afraid…” (Mark 5:36).
We always love your added photographs that further emphasize your point. As I viewed this scene I immediately thought that if we were to actually fall off the cliff, we still could not and would not be able to fall out of our at-one-ment with God and His protecting arm, his primary strength. No fiscal cliff ‘can separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord’…thank you Evan, as always.
Thank you for the ‘food for thought’. As always you bring us ‘back’ to Reality! We all have so much to be grateful for. God is, indeed, our source of abundant supply.
Evan, I stumbled upon your blog a month or two ago. I have to say it is one of the most comprehensively rich and insightful ones that I have ever read! I read a few of your posts every evening or so and I never fail to receive a boost in my perspective on the many topics about which you write.
Thank you so much for all that you share from your heart, mind, and spirit. And God bless you and your family this Chrismas season!
To above,
Thank you! I appreciate your kind and generous comments.
