Why Be Fearless?

Leave a comment

Of one thing you may be sure: The Father does not send affliction as an arbitrary punishment for wrongdoing.  – The Urantia Papers (148:5.3)

retribution?

The Universe does not punish. God is not petty, he’s God. He’s created it all, imagine his wisdom. He’s our parent, imagine his love for us. The laws of the Universe may not be transgressed. So if we decide to jump off a cliff we’ll probably die. We suffer the consequences of the choices we make.

feel safe

We should feel safe. A personage (or power) that can create everything must be capable of tracking everything that goes on in that reality. We were created in love and are guided by that same love. The trick is to allow that love to flow through us. Life then becomes a cinch. It really is that simple, at least in concept!

The Art Of Being…

Leave a comment

The value of life does not depend upon the place we occupy. It depends upon the way we occupy that place.  – Thérèse of Lisieux

do

We focus mostly on our ‘place’ in life. I.e. what we’ve earned or achieved in life or in our jobs. In other words we underscore what we’ve done and what we’ve gathered along the way.

be

The ‘way’ we do our job, play our roles as a child, sibling, spouse or parent appears to be more important. The ‘way’ we show up as a human being, as a student, a worker and as a world citizen seems more crucial. Being must come first. Being must come from our core values and from our high ideals. Being must also come from our aspirations and hopes. Then what follows, the doing, will be of greater value! More here: BeZenDo Revisited!

How To Play The Game Of Life…

Leave a comment

The game of life is a game of boomerangs. Our thoughts, deeds and words return to us sooner or later with astounding accuracy.  – Florence Scovel Shinn

essential truth

An essential truth that we must grasp: We are creators. We create or co-create our present and future circumstances.

children of god

We must fully grasp our status as children of God. That’ll do at least two things for us:

1) We’ll be more certain of our place in this safe, beautiful and infinite Universe.

2) We’ll become better partners with Divinity.

Life truly is good, we have nothing to worry about, let’s rejoice!!
