"I Come As A Brother"

"You have abdicated the power of your own control, and I ask you to reestablish yourself in the center of your own choices. The easiest, the fastest and most exciting way to do that is to pay attention to what your mind is thinking. See the thoughts come and go."

"If you learn only one thing in this lifetime, let it be this: You are responsible for your own happiness."
Page 144
"It is not necessary that you reach total enlightenment on the earth plane. There is another state that many of you can reach and I would like to discuss. When you finally learn that you do have choices, the first step is to better your own life, your own perceptions, and your own inner relationship with your world. I applaud that, for in dong so, you will develop more inner power. The next stage is to make choices that benefit others first. This is the realm of the true spiritual Teacher, who takes on the "Karma" or "illness" of the student."

"You can love God without being "good". And you can be very "good" and have no love of God! [St.] Frances clearly realized that his ability to love God was determined by his desire to love God."
Page 151
"The way to love God and the only way was to hear God's voice in everything. In the song of a bird, in the cry of the dying, in the scream of the mad, in the despair of the leper, in the moans of the abandon lover - that was the way to love God!."

"If you look carefully at your lives, you will see that there is not one of you that has been given a gift. Not one. If you choose to use your gift to keep yourself safe, secure, and comfortable, that is one choice. But every time you share your gift wholeheartedly, whether it be teaching, nursing, therapy, painting, working, child-rearing, or whatever, you will touch God. Your gift was given to you so that it could be shared, not only at your convenience, but for other people. Those of you who see no purpose in life, please look to this. Your life will not be complete until you learn to serve others. A life lived selfishly will never make you happy!"

"Your job, in one way of speaking, is to empower humankind in every possible way that you can. The victories that you have every day, as small as they might be and as vast as they might be , are why you are here."
Page 163
"The only difference between any of you and an enlightened one is they believed it when they heard that they and God were One, and could be experienced now. They decided to take a chance on that Truth. Nobody gets enlightened unless they take a chance."
Page 170
"You have taken on one of the most difficult jobs in the Createdness, which is to be able to feel the lightest, most ephemeral energy vortex that you call God on a planet that is one of the densest in the universe. I call that courageous."
