"Courage
is the heartbeat of consciousness and fear its mortal enemy. What you
will not face will elude you, or else it will erode or corrupt some part
of your life in unsuspecting ways. Consciousness is the light of the
soul. Therefore, darkness will avoid it or dwell in the shadow of some
external light. It takes great courage to be a light in the world and
great faith to know that one ray of light may turn a darkened room into
one that is safe to enter." -
from the "Keys of Jeshua" by Glenda Green
There will always be those
who tell us we cannot do something ... or will cast doubts on our
motives. Of one thing we can be certain, God is always giving us
opportunities to experience more
and more Good in our lives. We, on the other hand, may not be open
to new and better experiences ... and will reject them. All the
while thinking that we can continue on without being affected by the
rejection. But, this is not true ... we cannot reject the
Giving-ness of the Infinite and not have this rejection show up in our
experiences in some manner. Most often we reject these new
experiences due to fear ... fear of the unfamiliar ... or of the
momentary uncomfortable-ness that we may experience at first when we
enter into a new experience that calls us to be more than we have been
before ... experiences that challenge us ... and may even at first
appear as futile.
General Wesley Clark, entered
the democratic presidential race later than all the other candidates.
As a matter of fact, he did so with a lot of people telling him not to.
But like so many of us, we know what we know when we know it ... and
General Wesley Clark is moving forward toward his vision for this
country and the work ahead as President Clark. From www.clark04.com
: "I'm
running to bring back the core ideals of our democracy - personal
liberty, open debate, and opportunity for all. These ideals have made us
great. They will make us greater. They will make us safer and more
prosperous. Join me. We can have a new kind of patriotism in America. We
can have a new kind of America."
Personal liberty, open debate, and
opportunity for all ... these are the words that speak to the Spirit of
each of us. Liberty is the character of Infinite Spirit .. we must
all be free to express our individuality ... to have the opportunity to
prosper and succeed in that in which we choose. Like General
Wesley Clark, I have voted for members of both U.S. political parties.
Rather than vote for a democrat or republican, I vote for the candidate.
It is after all, the candidate who will set the tone for the country and
whose values and integrity will shape the course for the future.
Personal liberty is in fact, in alignment with Universal Law and
attaching ourselves to political parties can bind us to limitation.
As
we understand that the Law of Life is a Law of Liberty ... each of us
must be willing to cast aside all opinions, judgments and criticism ...
and even the well-intended advice that we receive... and move forward
allowing our vision for our Life to unfold ... not someone else's vision
for our life. We are living in the ONE GREAT LIFE ... and
this ONE GREAT LIFE is seeking to express through us magnificently and
successfully ... all we must do is safe-guard our personal liberty so
that It can do Its Perfect Work through us.
And
So It Is!

Love Use Me In Its Own Good Way,
