IF I SACRIFICE ENOUGH, WILL THIS PROVE TO GOD, I AM WORTHY AND DESERVING AND OPEN THE FLOOD GATES OF HEAVENLY BLESSINGS.
To me, this defies the idea, that we are already worthy and deserving of every good thing. I think it also creates problems for me, in that since i’m acting on a belief that i’m not worthy or deserving, i will tend to create the appearance or physical conditions and experiences, that seem to tell me, i’m not worthy or deserving (we reap what we sow) In other words, we create the very problem we don’t want, and if i am feeling unworthy and undeserving, who benefits from this belief? surely, if you want some good, the idea is to just be accepting of it?
BLESSINGS
Anything that anyone gives attention to, becomes true
