What could harm the power and glory of God’s Divine Love? A Love that knows no opposite doesn’t have opponent or ‘enemy.’ Here is the meaning of True Strength. Having no enemy, the thought of ‘overpowering’is meaningless to Love. For Love can only just look on Love and see Its Perfection radiating Eternally.
The ego could be the belief in vulnerability. It is the belief that something (anything) can be attacked or weakened or destroyed david hoffmeister ebooks. This type of belief is but a vain try to deny the Eternal Union of Spirit, That is far beyond the imagined world of the temporary. In fantasy, attack seems possible and defenses justified, but what exactly is fantasy but an imaginary game that a sleepy child plays for an instant of amusement.
There’s an occasion when disillusionment involves your brain which deals in fantasies. And beyond this aspect an entire new world of glimmering light emerges within. The Vision of the Holy One is revealed because the veil of duality is parted, and beaming Rays of Light replace the entire world of perception. In the Great Rays of Understanding is God and Self remembered, whole, unified, perfect and complete.
Such is the value of forgiveness. Forgiveness parts the veil made to hide the Face of Love. Forgiveness brings healing to a mind fatigued with fantasies. Forgiveness brings gentleness to a global made harsh by lies. And forgiveness brings the glad tidings of Awakening, heralding the dawn of Wisdom Eternal. “When you meet anyone, remember it is just a holy encounter. As you see him you will see yourself. As you treat him you’ll treat yourself. As you think of him you’ll think of yourself. Never forget this, for in him you will find yourself or lose yourself. Whenever two Sons of God meet, they are given another chance at salvation. Do not leave anyone without giving salvation to him and receiving it yourself. For I’m always there with you, in remembrance of you.
Thank You God for opening the way and leading a missing flock back again to the Awareness of Eternal Oneness. Glory to God in the Highest, and Good Will to all or any!
