Now, the present moment, is always our point of power. The energy never goes away, never takes a break;
There is one Self...It is everything we are. We are not isolated beings, set apart from one another. What we think of as individuality is a distortion of Who we really are;
There is no Divine rage. There is no sin. There is no punishment;
Love really is all there is;
Nothing is lost, nothing dies, there is only eternal Life;
Self has no opposite. We invented the concept of opposites to further hide from our Self;
I may still become afraid, even though I understand there is nothing to fear;
I may still become angry, though I understand there is no justification for anger.
