What could harm the energy and glory of God's Divine Love? A Love that knows no opposite doesn't have opponent or ‘enemy.' This is actually the meaning of True Strength. Having no enemy, the concept of ‘overpowering'is meaningless to Love. For Love can only just look on Love and see Its Perfection radiating Eternally.

The ego could be the belief in vulnerability. It's the belief that something (anything) can be attacked or weakened or destroyed. This type of belief is but a vain try to deny the Eternal Union of Spirit, That is far beyond the imagined world of the temporary. In fantasy, attack seems possible and defenses justified, but what is fantasy but an imaginary game that a sleepy child plays for a moment of amusement.

There is an occasion when disillusionment concerns the mind which deals in fantasies. And beyond this time a whole new world of glimmering light emerges within. The Vision of the Holy One is revealed because the veil of duality is parted, and beaming Rays of Light replace the entire world of perception. In the Great Rays of Understanding is God and Self remembered, whole, unified, perfect and complete.

Such is the value of forgiveness. Forgiveness parts the veil made to full cover up the Face of Love. Forgiveness brings healing to a head fatigued with fantasies. Forgiveness brings gentleness to a world made harsh by lies. And forgiveness brings the glad tidings of Awakening, heralding the dawn of Wisdom Eternal. "When you meet anyone, remember it is really a holy encounter. As you see him you might find yourself. As you treat him you'll treat yourself. As you consider him you'll consider yourself. Remember this, for in him you will discover yourself or lose yourself. Whenever two Sons of God meet, they're given another chance at salvation. Do not leave anyone without giving salvation to him and receiving it yourself. For I am always there with you, in remembrance of you.purpose is the only choice

Thank You God for opening just how and leading a missing flock back to the Awareness of Eternal Oneness. Glory to God in the Highest, and Good Will to any or all!
