Is there any such thing as instant gratification?
I pray for miracles every day even though I am aware that miracles are constantly manifesting around me all the time. I have had to learn that the actual request that I am making is for the “instant manifestation” of whatever I am praying for.
For example, “money.” I share this because so many of us agree that we want money, but we don’t really want money. We want the things we can buy with it. We want that purchasing power for ourselves and for those we love. When you understand it this way, wanting money doesn’t seem so bad! So we ask God or the universal creator to grant us some and we hope that it will come quickly! But I have to ask; is anything in Earth instant? Question: What have I learned about Earth World since being here? Answer:There is a process for everything! Creating anything seems to take time. Manifestation is the result of quantum mechanics on the unseen levels.
The birth of a child is a miracle. The presence of fruit on a full grown tree is a miracle. The diversity of the species on this planet are miracles. All of these are supported by the environment into which they are born and that is a series of miracles. At first, It might seem that breathing or being aware is instant but they are not either.
Breathing is not instant, it is a process of inhaling, stopping as the molecules transfer into our system nutrients (oxygen) they bring and then receiving the waste (carbon dioxide), then exhaling it into the air.
Awareness seems close to instant, but even that is a process… for example; awakening in the morning from sleep to waking state requires that our awareness moves or passes from dream or a deeper state and as we pass through to waking, we are aware of forgetting. “Awareness” occurs multidimensionally. For the most part in our general state of consciousness we are not aware of all levels simultaneously. Even awareness isn’t instant, it is a process too.
The only thing I know that is instant is “being”.” Being is existence. It doesn’t mean being aware or even breathing. It means the ability to exist.” Now that I have come to understand that more, I can have more patience. I have had four miracles that were direct answers to prayers and I am praying for a fifth. This miracle that I am praying for includes my request that I understand the process better so that I can become a better “miracle worker.”
For those of you who want to fast track your knowledge, there is a popular book titled A course in mircacles I have a copy but I don’t want to read it until my prayer is answered.
Be well and be happy!
