Trust in the LORD with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take.
— Proverbs 3:5-6 New Living Translation
“Reaching For The Light”
Divine Inner Peace … p 100
The lingering disquiet and unhappiness that forever hold us down are but a problem of mortal mind; one we are all susceptible to. We alone must face up to the problem and deal with it. An unwavering belief in our own divine Goodness is, more than all else, essential to the solution.
Stop looking to others, to different circumstances or to a change of place. All are but temporary palliatives which, when revealed in their true colours, serve only to deepen our despair and affirm the futility of ever finding our true Being.
All too often, our goodness which, by its very nature, cannot be taken from us, is obscured from our own sensibilities when mired in mental turmoil of our own making. To reveal, and to reclaim as our own, this wondrous gift of Goodness, we begin by going within. Thoughts of the mind to no purpose are instead given over to thoughts of God’s Love. In so doing, we intuitively become one with our immortal self: our true spiritual inner Being. Not only have we thus become quit of those inner demons which gave rise to our unease, we have as well achieved a state of selfless humility subsumed in an aura of divine Peace.
