Search me, O God, and know my heart; try me and know my anxious thoughts. See if there be any hurtful way in me and lead me in the everlasting way.

Thank You
You can have a strong desire to awaken, to know God. (Don’t get caught up in the title. I give Divine—change that to anything you want in your head.) Without intention, desire does not stay front and center. Intention helps us to stay committed to our desire.
The Battle with Screaming Mimi
Someone said to me, "Be careful what you pray for; it just might happen." Well, I found out how true that statement is on my 60th birthday. As I was going to bed the night before my birthday, I said a quick prayer: Show me my ego. I woke up the next day, and from the minute I woke up I got to hear Screaming Mimi. As I mentioned in Sunday's post about the second beatitude, Screaming Mimi is what I named my ego.
