These are some questions that came to mind one day while sitting in my car during a lunch break. I had been reading Journey Beyond Words – a miracles studies book channeled by Jesus to Brent A. Haskell. The section I had been reading discussed discovering what our values are in our lives. There are no “right” answers…..but the questions can serve to bring you to self-knowledge and self-awareness.
Enjoy the process, be honest, and remember that you are truly loved.
From the Course:
“What happens to perceptions if there are no judgments and nothing but perfect equality? Perception becomes impossible. Truth can only be known. All of its equally true, and knowing any part of it is to know all of it. Only perception involves partial awareness. Knowledge transcends the laws governing perception, because partial knowledge is impossible. It is all one and has no separate parts. You who are really one with it need but know yourself and your knowledge is complete. To know God’s miracle is to know Him.”
“Do not perceive yourself in different lights. Know yourself in the One Light where the miracle that is you is perfectly clear.”
