Lesson 9, Lesson 10, Lesson 11, Attitude, Getting Well and Staying Well

True guidance enters our lives when we're quiet, when we are silent. It is difficult when we have created a barrier of static because the (inner) voice is heard as more static. Spend time simply allowing yourself to be with a picture of your conflict, exactly as it is presenting itself to you. Allow yourself the fully fledged grace of experiencing the conflict without trying to run from it or do anything about it. You can't imagine what a healing this is.

Intervening is just so much holding on. Feeling compelled to do something is fear. Allow it to flower, and as you are quiet, your conflict will turn into a prayer. You will recognize you are longing for fullness and truth and not for anything of this world. Like the rest of us, you are longing for love to enter. Sometimes you are looking in the wrong places.

You don't need to do anything. 'Day by day, month by month, I will commit myself to self-worth and self-respect. The only way I know how to do this is to experience the conflict and wait. I won't try to run from it. I will work it out with those around me, in as loving a way as I can. Where I can't, I go back to my quiet time and allow myself to be. All I can do is wait until the power of love comes to me and either lets it dissolve or shows me what to do.'

It takes patience, respect and a certain kind of easy discipline. If we don't do it, we will become wrapped in submerging our feelings, which will one day arise again. When you ask the right question, you will get the right answer. 'How can I find love here? How can I discover love?'
