Act As If

Samuel Moor Shoemaker III DD, STD ( 1893 – 1963) was a priest of the Episcopal Church. Samuel Shoemaker was considered one of the best preachers of his era, whose sermons were syndicated for distribution by tape and radio networks for decades. He founded Faith At Work magazine in 1926. He served as the rector of Calvary Episcopal Church in New York City from 1925 to 1952. He was the head of the United States headquarters of the

Stop praying for what you think you need. Pray instead for guidance.

God's Teacher is as like to His Creator as is His Son, and through His Teacher does God proclaim His Oneness AND His Son's. Listen in silence, and do NOT raise your voice against Him. For He teaches the miracle of Oneness, and before HIS lesson, division disappears. Teach LIKE Him here, and you WILL remember that you have ALWAYS created like your Father. ACIM

It was F. B. Meyer,

My uncle once told me

“Salvation of the world depends on me” may seem quite sobering, until you see its meaning. All it says is that your Father still remembers you, and offers you the perfect trust He holds in you who are His Son. It does not ask that you be different in any way from what you are. What could humility request but this? Lesson 186

"Nothing can hurt you unless you
give it power to do so."

Leslie Dixon Weatherhead ( 1893 – 1976 ) was an English Christian theologian in the liberal Protestant tradition. Weatherhead was noted for his preaching ministry at City Temple in London and for his books, including The Will of God, The Christian Agnostic, and Psychology, Religion, and Healing.

ME to WE and WHY

World Helped by You

Moral Re-Armament (MRA), of 1938, grew into an informal, international network of people of all faiths and backgrounds. It was based around what it called the 'Four Absolutes' (absolute honesty, absolute purity, absolute unselfishness and absolute love) and encouraged its members to be actively involved in political and social issues. One of the movement's core ideas was that changing the world starts with seeking change in oneself. Come Wind, Come Weather (1940) written by Daphne du Maurier contained stories of ordinary Britons who had found hope and new life through MRA. She dedicated it to "Frank Buchman, whose initial vision made possible the world of the living characters in these stories," and added, "What they are doing up and down the country in helping men and women solve their problems, and prepare them for whatever lies ahead, will prove to be of national importance in the days to come." The book sold 650,000 copies in Britain alone.

Where Frank Buchman appealed to adults, Gerry Visca appeals to the youth. New Thought was about the ONENSS. ACIM also teaches ONENES and ACIM came about after someone said “There has to be a better way.”

We live in a time where a shift in the world’s energy is moving from ME to MANY.  My state of being is centered around pouring myself into the benefit of others, inspiring them to be the best that they can be so they give permission to others to do the same.  I envision a world inspired and that brings me tremendous joy.

Manifesting?

I was listening to Jennifer Hadley (Jennifer Hadley - YouTube) and she made a comment how manifesting doesn’t exactly work.

I found old notes from Crystalinks on this @ 'The Celestine Prophecy', 'The Secret', 10 Insights to Manifesting.

As all is mind, and as we attract to us what we first become, until we learn to love we are not sending out love vibrations, and not until we send out love vibrations can we receive love in return. Creative Mind and Success, by Ernest S(hurtleff) Holmes [1919]

Ill will?

In 1909 Penn State was 'the most godless university in the country'. Mired in student strikes, class scraps, 'Hazing'_[1] and the supply of alcohol on the campus was plentiful. It was here that Frank Buchman found himself after accepting a job as YMCA Secretary. On 29 January 1908, Frank Buchman had sailed for Europe on the SS Moltke. While in Britain he discovered he had been nursing ill-will having been forced to resign a post earlier in October:

The God Who Speaks.

The central practice to the Oxford Group/MRA members was guidance, which was usually sought in the "quiet time" of early morning using pen and paper. The grouper would normally read the Bible or other spiritual literature, then take time in quiet with pen and paper, seeking God's direction for the day ahead, trying to find God's perspective on whatever issues were on the listener's mind. He or she would test their thoughts against the standards of absolute honesty, purity, unselfishness and love, and normally check with a colleague. 

It is NOT "Who's Right" but "What's Right"

This blog developed after receiving an email from Gemma Stone with this quote:

Jung said, "It is a bewildering thing in human life that the thing that causes the greatest fear is the source of the greatest wisdom."

Obviously his interests in “the archetype, the collective unconscious, the complex, synchronicity, The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI , a popular psychometric instrument), dream analysis and symbolization, Eastern and Western philosophy, alchemy, astrology, and sociology, philosophy and the occult” are fascinating but the it was the references to Rowland Hazard III and the Oxford Group that caught my attention.
