How To Get What We Want!

Leave a comment

The only way to get what you really want is to know what you really want.

The only way to know what you really want is to know yourself.

The only way to know yourself is to be yourself.

And the only way to be yourself is to listen to your heart.  – The Universe

what?

What do we want from life? What path must we follow? How can we be happy and fulfilled? How can there be more meaning in our lives?

heart

There’s a still small voice within our hearts. This voice speaks to us when we allow it space. It speaks to us when we ask questions. Its voice becomes comprehensible if we can truly listen. Therein lies the answer to the most important enigmas in life!

Why Perspective Matters…

Leave a comment

Every situation, properly perceived, becomes an opportunity to heal.  – A Course in Miracles (ACIM)

the small picture

We’re head-deep into maya, or what we may call the ‘small picture’. Our view and experience is extremely circumscribed. We’re boxed in by our culture, our country, our gender, our thoughts (assumptions/biases) and by matter itself. What’s the divine purpose behind this setup?

the big picture

Only by glimpsing the big picture can we hope to feel better about all that goes on in our lives and around the world. That glimpse is more easily caught when we believe in a Creator in whom we have faith. Faith and hope are the vehicles which can bring us peace in the current moment. Once we find that peace then healing (of any sort) can start to take place. And only then can we glimpse Life’s purpose…

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!

How To Serve…

Leave a comment

I tell you that, even when a cup of cold water is given to a thirsty soul, the Father’s messengers shall ever make record of such a service of love.  – Jesus, The Urantia Papers, (159:2.1)

why serve?

God distributed himself into the Universe and his myriad children. We serve God when we serve another.

how?

Any activity, even a gesture towards another, when performed in love and with a high intention is service to God.

Why Love (revisited)?

Leave a comment

Love cures people – both the ones who give it and the ones who receive it.  – Dr. Karl énage

questions

Someone said ‘if love is the answer, what’s the question?’. Here are a few possibilities:

  • How do we get out of this?
  • How can I survive?
  • Where do I go from here?
  • Am I alone?
  • Why am I afraid?

love

Love really is the answer. Why do we forget so easily? How can we stay in love?

What’s Our Purpose?

Leave a comment

Living in the present is a desire of the soul. It is to realize that we are here for a reason and with a purpose. – From Spirit

a tryst

Our soul lives firmly in the present. When we (our ego-self) also arrive at the present moment we have a great opportunity at hand. We now have a tryst with divinity…

purpose

Everything is happening for a grand purpose. It’s our job to discover our own. The best way to do that is to stay in the current moment and be guided by the gentle leading of our soul…
