Living In The Presence of God (VolII/PtI)-Chapter 6

[Guest guest]

CHAPTER

6 Let the thought be united only with prayer. Good thoughts are the company of the man that walks hand in hand with the Lord. Be determined, yet be patient, My child, for old habits die hard. One will not change, instantly - that is only a miracle that can be willed with the Divine Grace. Too many thoughts will stress and blur the vision of discrimination - resulting in an act of repentance. To avoid this painful experience, one must submerge himself in activities that bring him inner peace. Keep away from any desire, for the one that wants will think until he gets it, and once he unfortunately gets it, he will think, even more, until he is able to relieve himself from it. Let the focus of all you do concentrate upon the

purpose of your life. Do not run after what life can give you, instead, give life your whole self and its meaning will be clear - its destination will be certain. Know that life becomes only that what you are - be strong, My dear, and face life - face life - dare it until it serves you! Be its master, guide its every limb and show it the brilliance of self control and self confidence. Those that become dependent on the illusions of this world, will take with them more fears. Leave the world while you live - leave its riches, and take with you only that which you had brought - the truth and love of God! Control thoughts that seem repetitive. Repetitive thoughts lead only to worry. Let not the mind make you obsessive of its

needs. Know that the mind cannot stray, until you have agreed to be lost in its confusion. Be tranquil - be content with whatever you have. Inner joy

emerges, only when one stops to look for outer fulfillment. Develop the taste only for the truth - create the vision only for the right - be touched only by the pure hand of simple and selfless love - listen only to the divine command - and inhale the fragrance - the sweet breath of inner freedom from the outer world. Shut the windows - turn the eyes of the senses, let it bloom, and experience eternal youth. Create a love within you that simply loves only the Creator, and such activity, will lead to a state where one will dance, the exhilaration of it, will cause one to become the wave of the energy that brings manifested life to merge with its Giver. The body's needs are few - pay no attention to its lazy complaints and give it the strength to function to

its fullest capacity. If the mind objects to the command of the inner voice, leave its companionship - walk ahead on the wheels of the intellect. Let

the mind fear its own loneliness - believe Me, it will run to you - it will beg for your guidance - it will accept your direction and it will learn its first lesson of humility. Be the Master by serving your life with the courage of true leadership. Do not let your life be torn by desires - learn to survive with only the least - life only needs inner strength - Yes! Only the power of your own inner will. Assert it, My dear one, and you will walk free, each time. With self control, lighten the weight of luggage - with self discipline, brighten the dark fears that have made you unknown to the absolute - with self determination, awaken inner confidence - with self perseverance, destroy the shadow of any failure - what can ever stop the one that has, himself, paved the path that he walks on?!! Who can ever become the barrier to the one that has, himself, become the tallest and strongest of all mountains?!! None will dare to even see

the eye of the one that shines with only the truth! All becomes possible in the spiritual path, if you realize that all that is responsible for your errors is the lack of your knowing it to be you!Source : LIVING IN THE PRESENCE OF GOD (Volume II/Part I)
