No one can suffer loss unless it be his own decision. No one suffers pain except his choice elects this state for him. No one can grieve nor fear nor think him sick unless these are the outcomes that he wants. And no one dies without his own consent. Nothing occurs but represents your wish, and nothing is omitted that you choose. Here is your world, complete in all details. Here is its whole reality for you. And it is only here salvation is.
You may believe that this position is extreme, and too inclusive to be true. Yet can truth have exceptions? If you have the gift of everything, can loss be real? Can pain be part of peace, or grief of joy? Can fear and sickness enter in a mind where love and perfect holiness abide? Truth must be all-inclusive, if it be the truth at all. Accept no opposites and no exceptions, for to do so is to contradict the truth entirely.
Broadcasting in total the unity and singleness
of purpose of the universe.
Revelation is not reciprocal.
Your relationship with Truth in no way involves reciprocity. What could be more blasphemous to God, or in reality to yourself, than to ask Him for a favor? You keep trying to make a deal with Truth. You are playing a losing game. You keep trying to bet what you have against what He Is. You end up with nothing and He still is Everything. To have is only to be.
