Quote from Marianne Williamson
We are created in ...

We are created in God's image, however, and not the other way around. As extensions of God, we are ourselves the spirit of compassion, and in our right minds, we don't seek to judge but to heal. We do this through forgiveness.




4/14/2005 from "A Return to Love"

1. the truth is said again and again
from "Love Without End--Jesus Speaks" by Glenda Green

" looks for idealized patterns that it can impose on exsitence and then call them divine when, Glenda, you do not have to do anything to make this universe divine. All you have to do is to perceive and then to regard with honor that which is already here. Behold, be grateful, and forgive that which you did not understand or control. For life is divine, it is perfect, and it naturally manifests the will of its creator."

(A very interesting book about an artist who saw and talked with Jesus in the last few years, according to the author. Don't know about that, but the Teachings are the same.)

2. Wonderful quote.
I tell myself, 'I am Peace, I am Joy, I am Compassion, I am Healing."

It is hard to tell myself 'Peace has begun with me' when I'm looking at my crazy Religious Rightie neighbor ('He's God too?). Heck, I have to go do a special meditation after talking to him.

I must manifest a higher consciousness ...

I'm forgiveness, right? I don't want to strangle my neighbor for voting for Boooosh ... I don't want want to strangle my neighbor for voting for Boosh...

I'm forgiveness ... I am compassion. I will work for Enlightenment...
Pfeewww.....
