In this short talk, Guy Finley explains how everything that exists was made for us to discover our true nature.
Most of us feel love for truth and light only when we believe that it is giving us what we want. But if getting what we want is the only standard by which we measure our love, then when life changes as it must, the love that we profess to have for God will turn into deep resentment and pain over what we believe God has taken from us. When we become identified with anything that we believe we a...
Quite often our reaction when we witness someone perform something that is beautiful, unique, or inspiring is to either idolize the individual and wish that we had such a gift, or to resent the person and wonder why he or she was given an ability which we were denied. Instead of reacting as we usually do, it is possible for us to experience something beautiful so that its very presence remind...
There will be moments in our spiritual life in which it will feel as though we have nothing -- in which there seems to be no promise. It is during these difficult times that we will have to make a choice. We can do as we have always done in these moments of feeling empty and search for an escape through some form of distraction. Or we can choose to become truly conscious of the feeling, not be...

When a summer breeze moves over a field of tall grass or wheat, you can see a whole movem...

When everything is said and done, what your heart of hearts wants is to have no doubts whatsoever that you spent your life wanting God's life. There is no such thing as failure in a sincere wish for God's life; in truth, the success is in the wish itself. A sincere wish holds no fear, unless it b...
One of the problems that we face as human beings is that our senses separate us from what we see. If you have ever been physically sick, you know that prior to being sick, you were virtually unaware of the fact that you were healthy. So were it not for physical sickness, we would never know gratitude for health. Health and sickness are not separate things. We usually resist, reject, and refus...
Do your best right now to feel everything that is happening. Most of the time we do not feel anything other than the pain and constriction of a mind that is busy trying to work things out. Feel life as it is--not as you don't want it to be, nor as you want it to be. Feel life as it is. You are invited to feel everything. The reason that our lives are repetitious is that there is "no room at t...
