I am not really sure how the prodigal son story relates to me directly. I guess in some manner I am more similar to the brother in the story rather than the prodigal son himself. I have often found myself reflecting more on the fortunes of others when I found them undeserving and wondering why I did not receive the fortunes.
In this respect, I have learned that I should cherish other peoples’ successes as much as I would cherish my own. I find that when I am in gratitude that things flow to me effortlessly and with positive abundance. This occurs even when I practice that gratitude on another’s behalf knowingly or unknowingly to them. To this extent, the story is my own.
I know that the Spirit is boundless and limitless in what it is and what it can provide. There is no amount to be divided, no amount that needs to be shared and there is end to the supply of goodness that is Spirit. I know that that Spirit is everything and manifests equally for me and everyone else. There is no division necessary between others and me. Therefore, I know that all that I am and all that I have are available to me as well as everyone else. I share in the gratitude, abundance, love and peace that is all people. We are all one and need not want. We have all we need. I am thankful to know that I and all people are one in the same. I happily share all that I am and have with anyone who needs it. I release my word into Law knowing that it has already overflowed all of our chalices many times without limit, and so it is.
