Turmoil
Wherever thou seest a great end, be sure of a great beginning. Where a monstrous and painful destruction
appals thy mind, console it with the certainty of a large and great
creation. God is there not only in the still small voice, but in
the fire and in the whirlwind.
The greater the destruction, the freer the chances of creation. Those who hope violently, despair swiftly.
Neither hope nor fear, but be sure of God's purpose and thy will to
accomplish.
Wherefore God hammers so fiercely at his world, tramples and kneads it
like dough, casts it so often into the blood-bath and the red hell-heat
of the furnace? Because humanity in
the mass is still a hard, crude and vile ore which will not otherwise be smelted and shaped;
as is his material, so is his method. Let it help to transmute
itself into nobler and purer metal, his ways with it will be gentler
and sweeter, much loftier and fairer its uses.

Food for thought
When you said "Yes" to Me, you gave up the right to be like everyone else. That
is why you draw experiences to yourself that will cleanse yourself of that which
does not fit who you are. Over and over, again and again, until I make you see
that the past no longer works. I challenge you and tempt you every day with your
past, so that you may see that the past is the ultimate delusion. When you said
"yes" to Me you gave Me your body, your thoughts and your actions. When they
don't suit the new you, the uncomfortableness is unbearable. It will be so EVERY
time and when you realize this fully, then and only then will you completely
give up desire. For this is the only way man will learn. Very seldom does he
learn by quiet reminders. Man's desires and pitfalls are placed there so that I
may do My work. When you give up totally, then the temptations will fade. I will
never give up on you. Every slip will become harder and harder to bear and less
easy to remedy. You will tire of your foolishness because I love you and though
not completely aware of it, you did say "Yes".
