Believing our lies is what gets a person in trouble. Thinking the grass is greener on the other side is one of these lies and until it’s seen this grass also has to be mowed, one will continues to believe this. If you think when a certain thing happens you will be set, you will be sadly mistaken even if this thing comes to pass. This is very subtle to see and as one clings to this mind set of needing life to be a certain way, the lies are reinforced. Case in point would be something as simple and seemingly innocent as playing the lottery. Here’s how this reinforcement works. There’s the lie of I that first makes one think if life is a certain way you will have it made; it’s the answer to your prayers. So you buy a lottery ticket just because the jackpot is a hundred million dollars. This seems innocent, but make no mistake, it is not. This is a reinforcement of I because you of I wanting things different and it keeps one in their self centered prison.
There’s nothing wrong with the tool of money in and of itself, but whatever the thing is that makes a person think life would be better if this or that happened, puts them in the chains of bondage to I. Granted a hundred million dollars would make one’s life different, but different doesn’t mean it will necessarily be better. The moment one thinks better, it means one wants the present moment different. There are many lies that are believed which keeps one entrapped to the lies and if these aren’t exposed, one’s life will mostly be lived as a lie. Money is only one, anything can be substituted for money. Don’t take my word on this, investigate this and see the lies you’re clinging to, or not and remain in bondage to the lies that you’re keeping in place as truth.
