Hi loved ones,
Last Saturday evening, I began reading DIALOGUE ON AWAKENING, which I had received that same day from Pathways of Light.
Authored by Jesus, through Tom and Linda Carpenter, I began reading, mining for gold.
(Bob Thompson is a life-long questioner and a skeptic, who really doesn't have any questions, even though he constantly asks them.) :-)
But Bob is a goldminer, constantly looking for those nuggets, whose preciousness, resonates with him.
Dialogue on Awakening, is chockful of golden nuggets for me.
After reading on my own, I began reading it to Kathy in bed that night.
It is a greeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeat bedtime story!
Next morning, during our 10:00 a.m. "quiet service," I was moved to share a few nuggets during our follow-up discussion period with Mary, Philip, Happy Woman, Steve, and Kathy.
Two of those nuggests are:
p.14
"For God to acknowledge in any way, that you are dreaming, would be His support of your illusion, and this is not possible." and
p.17
"...vow to yourself, that you will do nothing, which does not bring you peace.
This will be a process that will be extremely difficult for you to begin, because what I am suggesting to you, is the step that you have refused to take these many years.
Yet, that is the one (step), which will bring you into the ultimate recognition of who you really are.
In your vow to do nothing that does not bring you peace, you will be forced to closely scrutinize the choices you have made, which have not brought you peace.
And it will be in this scrutiny that you will come to understand, why you have developed such a sense of low esteem for yourself.
You will discover all of the rationalizations which you have used in the past, and they will be a great temptation to continue.
But, you will, in fact, be separating the wheat from the chaff (spirit from ego!?), in your mind, and it will be this process that ultimately brings you the clarity of the loving choices which will put you in touch with your Self.
peacefully,
Bob Thompson, fellow "skeptic"
