Real Faith and Freedom go hand in hand, because no one is free who lives with fear, and fear cannot live in a person of Faith.

One sure way to guarantee that you'll continue rushing through the present moment is to cling to the false belief that you can escape unwanted thoughts and feelings by trying to run away from them.

There is an ancient idea, perhaps best expressed in the New Testament, which states that before a human being can hope to awaken, he or she must have not enemies. When you lie to someone, you have automatically made an enemy because you will always resist that person out of fear that he or she will expose your lie at any given moment. Therefore, not only have we made an enemy when we lie, we a...

Once we understand there is no flower, no leaf, no limb or branch that is greater than any other part that grows on the tree of life, then we realize it is more than enough to be just and only what we are in the moment.

There is something in us that actually enjoys feeling stressed. We must discover that we live with an opposing self. We can catch moments of opposition by coming back to ourselves.
