To recognise me, you must first know me again. Re-cognise. First, you must believe there is a God to know. Second, you have to be open to new ideas about me. Third, and this is the biggie, you need to be ready to embrace a God who embraces you, without condition.
Ask yourself every day, ‘Is this Who I Am?’. Every decision you make is not a decision about what to do, but a decision about Who You Are. The other five word magic question is, ‘What would Love do now?’
If you require a certain result to be happy, you have an addiction. If you simply desire a certain result, you have a preference. If you have no preference, you have Acceptance. And you have achieved Mastery.
Suffering has nothing to do with events, but your reactions to them. What’s happening is merely what’s happening. How you feel about it – how you choose to feel about it – is another matter. Can you simply accept what ‘Is’?
Bits pinched from Neale Donald Walsch…
There is only what there is
There is only now
There is only your life
Your happiness
Your desires
Your existence
The rest is background scenery.
Whilst it can be very nice,
Interesting even,
It’s not you.
It’s not Who You Are.
It’s Who You Were
Perhaps,
Or Who You Could Be
Maybe
But right now,
Today
Who You Are is Who You Choose To Be.
Who do you choose to be?
