When You Said Yes To Me
When you said "Yes"
to Me, you gave up the right to be like everyone else. That is why you
draw experiences to yourself that will cleanse yourself of that which does
not fit who you are. Over and over, again and again, until I make you see
that the past no longer works. I challenge you and tempt you every day
with your past, so that you may see that the past is the ultimate
delusion. When you said "yes" to Me you gave Me your body, your thoughts
and your actions. When they don't suit the new you, the uncomfortable-ness
is unbearable. It will be so EVERY time and when you realize this fully,
then and only then will you completely give up desire. For this is the
only way man will learn. Very seldom does he learn by quiet reminders.
Man's desires and pitfalls are placed there so that I may do My work. When
you give up totally, then the temptations will fade. I will never give up
on you. Every slip will become harder and harder to bear and less easy to
remedy. You will tire of your foolishness because I love you and though
not completely aware of it, you did say "Yes". -Sathya Sai Baba |
