Divine Goodness folds you round and bears you on.



What, then, is the miraculous message of mysticism?
Happiness is yours in the here and now. The painful states of anxiety and loneliness are abolished permanently. Financial affairs are not financial problems. You are at ease with yourself. You are not at the mercy of unfulfilled cravings. Confusion is replaced with clarity. There is a relieving answer to every tormenting question. You possess a True Self. Something can be done about every unhappy condition. While living in the world you can be inwardly detached from its sorrows to live with personal peace and sanity.

There is no reality except the one contained within us.



When you’re one with God, then you also tend to see the God in other people, whether they are treating you like a Daddy, a Mommy, a son, or like a mosquito! Connirae Andreas

Happiness is an attitude.



The 92-year-old, petite, well-poised and proud lady, who is fully dressed each morning by eight o'clock, with her hair fashionably coifed and makeup perfectly applied, even though she is legally blind, moved to a nursing home today. Her husband of 70 years recently passed away, making the move necessary. After many hours of waiting patiently in the lobby of the nursing home, she smiled sweetly when told her room was ready. As she maneuvered her walker to the elevator, I provided a visual description of her tiny room, including the eyelet sheets that had been hung on her window. "I love it," she stated with the enthusiasm of an eight-year-old having just been presented with a new puppy. "Mrs. Jones, you haven't seen the room .... just wait." "That doesn't have anything to do with it," she replied. "Happiness is something you decide on ahead of time. Whether I like my room or not doesn't depend on how the furniture is arranged ... it's how I arrange my mind. I already decided to love it ... It's a decision I make every morning when I wake up. I have a choice; I can spend the day in bed recounting the difficulty I have with the parts of my body that no longer work, or get out of bed and be thankful for the ones that do. Each day is a gift, and as long as my eyes open I'll focus on the new day and all the happy memories I've stored away ... just for this time in my life." From http://www.parablesite.com/

Living Now



LIVE EVERY minute as it comes, just as though it were the only minute you had on earth. Let it be filled with love, joy, harmony, courage, faith, all that you hope to enjoy sometime in the future. Too many of us are putting off our good from day to day, from month to month, and from year to year so that we never quite catch up with it. Live now. Forget your troubles of the past and stop dreading the future.

“Higher Shopping Service”



I cannot save you more time than you will let Me, but if you are willing to try the Higher Shopping Service, which also covers lower-order necessities and even quite a number of whims within reason. I have very good use for the time we could save.

THE GOD IN YOU



Your task is not to seek for love, but
merely to seek and find all of the barriers within
yourself that you have built against it.
 ACIM Ch.16.IV.6


“The secret of demonstration is to conceive what is true in Being and to carry out the concept in thought, word, and act. If I can conceive a truth, there must be a way by which I can make that truth apparent.” (Prosperity, Charles Fillmore/37)
