Jumping to illusions – conclusions.

Wednesday, January 28, 2026

My ex-husband hates spending money. If a repair came up, an unexpected expense, or a payment was due, anxiety abounded. Often, he would ask me for financial help. At the time, I could access his bank account and would see that he had $13,000 in his savings, even after his “big” expenses. We kept our finances separate. He jumped to conclusions and manufactured “need.”

I often do this. I jump to conclusions and manufacture need. But I am reminded that I’m connected to Source. I am Source. However money originates, it’s through me, in me, and by me – Source. It is made possible through me, and if I am in need – real need, provision comes and I trust.  

My ex seemed to be in need when he really wasn’t. This mentality comes from his background. He came from a poor country. Jumping to conclusions is being poor in spirit.

One day, we were discussing that my 2000 Honda Accord, which had nearly 320,000 miles on it, was coming to its life’s end. It really was bad – it was constantly in the shop.

In that situation, I didn’t react. I waited and considered my options. I remained quiet in my spirit and didn’t jump to conclusions, or run to the dealership and buy a car I really couldn’t afford. Soon after that conversation, my mom called out of the blue and told me of a friend of hers who died. She had a gently used Honda Fit which barely had any miles on it. And for less than $5000, the practically brand new car was ours. It was within our means.

The perfect solution came. How “close” do you need to cut it? There aren’t any close calls, just closed minds. When it’s time, it arrives. Conclusions are illusions. Don’t jump to illusions. Rely on what’s real – your connection to Unlimited Source.
