“Flying Blind” Blog #239
Are there “Red Flags” in my life right now?
Can I find immediate courage to face all my darkness?
Why is it urgent to transform into my “Higher Self” NOW?
The other day I had a lengthy drive ahead of me so I turned on a talk show to keep my
interest. A lady had called in to speak with Dr. Laura regarding a problematic close
relationship. She stated her mother was no longer talking to her because the caller and
her family were Christians and the callers mother was an atheist. Dr. Laura listened and
then questioned how the children were currently being raised. “A Christian school,” said
the caller. She also informed Dr. Laura that she had told her mother not to tell her children
“God did not exist” and not to discuss anything spiritual if she came to visit. The woman’s
mother said, “In that case, I want nothing more to do with you, your husband and your
three children. You are filling the children’s minds with fabricated lies”. Interestingly
enough, the caller described her own childhood growing up. She said her parents had
become divorced while she was very young. She had been depressed a lot and not close
to any friends. A dark time in her life, caused her to seriously think about ending it all. Her
home life was quiet after the divorce, but constant fear ran through her being and it was
only a year or two into college when she met her husband, who was an active Methodist
Christian. The caller said she immediately began to go to his church and found more
purpose in life. Outside of her mother, the caller and her husband and children were
leading a very supportive, active and spiritually full life.
How many families lead busy, crazy, active lives now completely without Jesus in their
home? When we accept Jesus we fly with wings of eagles and never fly blind. What in the
world is so frightening about Jesus Christ? He healed the sick and did miracle after
miracle including making the blind see! Where is fear in this awareness? People who insist
on NO internal spiritual help are constantly “flying blind”. They go it alone. No wonder there
is so much sadness, so many souls alone, such heartache. Yes, darkness does exist but
just as surely as the light of God that is all protecting, all healing and all powerful over
darkness. Herein lies the secret to loneliness and guilt. Take off the “blinders” as one flies
through life. Put on the cross of Jesus and stay firm. There is a danger zone all of us go
into IF we are living life alone in a secular world insisting on “flying blind”. So I invite HIM into
my heart as Jesus holds my hand now.
“I admit Lord, I am powerless over my own life and thank you for guiding me daily”
Here is a perfect St. Michael Prayer of Protection that can be said daily:
“St. Michael the Arch Angel defend us in battle,
be our protection against the wickedness and the snares of the devil.
May God rebuke him we humbly pray;
And do thou O Prince of the Heavenly Host, by the power of God,
cast into hell Satan and all of the evil spirits who prowl about the world
seeking the ruin of souls”. Amen
Can I take off the blinders and see the light of Christ in my life today?
