Hehehe
Hello my side-steppin sista!
No slight intended my sweet and wise friend, only crabby references from your little bro
This has been one revelation after another- and complete and full circles of discovery, thank you for being a part of this with me. Where to start?
First... I was again awoken at that magic 3AM-ish hour when something amazing happened. I was praying and pleading to God earlier in the night... "What is reality?" I will share this experience in my
"Discovering Answers, The Living Spirit" thread. Thank you for affirming the importance of recording these experiences... And thank you for granting me a space to do so. Since this is a safe community, who prides itself in Divine Salvation... I hope others feel welcomed to share their own experiences, as there are more of us bonded by the 1111 phenomenon, all uniquely guided by a Living and Loving God.
Maybe it's better for me to start with where I'm presently at as I begun reading and listening to UB papers 171-189. BTW... Please don't feel obligated, our Friday chit chat is sure to be informal and totally organic. I am doing this for my own sake, I truly enjoy sharing in ideas of spiritual affairs- no matter how we go about it. If no one else replies by Thursday afternoon I will reach out in PM that evening so we can arrange a time that works.
So I am currently on Paper 174... And it absolutely addresses the Saki beverage we shared the other day. It's a similar wisdom for sure. But what has listening to the UB done for me while driving? Well... I went to Costco- a major retail outlet. Got some gas... And sure enough a man and woman were arguing next to me. She was irate, he was whispering vile poisons to her. I was in such a good mood I wondered why I was witnessing this, or why it was unfolding over my shoulder. I didn't intervene, they parted ways after sharing in their mutual anger for one another. But I thought about it... Wondered, all the meanwhile... Just repeating "God, God, God" in my mind... Not attaching myself to their situation, but focusing on the peace I had been feeling from listening to the UB...
Then after parking my car I strolled into the giant warehouse to buy a few necessities. As I was entering the building I looked at all the people and felt so much love. All of us Gods children. I thought about what I might have said to that man if he pulled me into his drama... All I could think, in some fantasy scenario, "Like you, she is Gods child." And I looked at a man sitting down, another woman walking across, another person pausing to adjust their pants and felt so much love for all of Gods creation.
Wouldn't you know it I ran into that man who had previously been cursing the woman at the gas pump? He didn't notice me, I was behind him- but we kept going towards the same produce items. I could only chuckle to myself. It dawned on me later that I am to pray for that man. And the thought occurred maybe that's all I need to do next time anger attempts to enter my temple... We our responsible for our peace, and by no means does that mean to ignore what is happening in front of you.
So perhaps you are getting a sense of what I mean when I say things are coming full circle? There are even more synchronicities I can share later, but look at where I've landed in the UB... Presently on Paper 174 part 1
"DIVINE FORGIVENESS"
174:1.2 (1898.2)After a short silence Jesus looked significantly at all four and answered: “My brethren, you err in your opinions because you do not comprehend the nature of those intimate and loving relations between the creature and the Creator, between man and God. You fail to grasp that understanding sympathy which the wise parent entertains for his immature and sometimes erring child. It is indeed doubtful whether intelligent and affectionate parents are ever called upon to forgive an average and normal child. Understanding relationships associated with attitudes of love effectively prevent all those estrangements which later necessitate the readjustment of repentance by the child with forgiveness by the parent.
174:1.3 (1898.3)“A part of every father lives in the child. The father enjoys priority and superiority of understanding in all matters connected with the child-parent relationship. The parent is able to view the immaturity of the child in the light of the more advanced parental maturity, the riper experience of the older partner. With the earthly child and the heavenly Father, the divine parent possesses infinity and divinity of sympathy and capacity for loving understanding. Divine forgiveness is inevitable; it is inherent and inalienable in God’s infinite understanding, in his perfect knowledge of all that concerns the mistaken judgment and erroneous choosing of the child. Divine justice is so eternally fair that it unfailingly embodies understanding mercy.
174:1.4 (1898.4)“When a wise man understands the inner impulses of his fellows, he will love them. And when you love your brother, you have already forgiven him. This capacity to understand man’s nature and forgive his apparent wrongdoing is Godlike. If you are wise parents, this is the way you will love and understand your children, even forgive them when transient misunderstanding has apparently separated you. The child, being immature and lacking in the fuller understanding of the depth of the child-father relationship, must frequently feel a sense of guilty separation from a father’s full approval, but the true father is never conscious of any such separation. Sin is an experience of creature consciousness; it is not a part of God’s consciousness.
