A Course of Love<\/span><\/i><\/h3>\n <\/p>\n
Do not turn your back on the hope offered here, and when new life flows in to release the old, forget not from where it came. C:7.23 ~Jesus<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
Do you not believe that were you to perish something quite unique would be lost to the world? You are alone and irreplaceable: one of a kind. Within you lie all that you would hope to contribute and create. Within the actions and interactions of your lifetime lie all the effects you would hope to have on what remains here. C:14.16 ~Jesus<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
Bitterness and uncertainty are replaced by hope. Hope is the condition of the initiate, new to the realization of having a home within the embrace. It is the response that says to all you have just read, \u201cAh, if only it were true.\u201d\u00a0 20.36 ~Jesus<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
Hope is a manner of acting as if the best possible outcome you can imagine could truly occur. Hope is a willingness to accept love and the grace and cooperation that flow from love. Hope is a willingness to ask for help, believing it will come. Hope is the reason and the outcome for which we pray. C.20.38 ~Jesus<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n

\u201cTo you, and all, I offer hope that answers to our prayers will rise out of the fire of the new; that as the flames reach skyward, they bring you the uncommon thought, the unnamed inspiration, and the self-love that allows you to find your voice, share it with a friend (or the world), and in this way, \u201cbe\u201d the spark . . . be among the many dazzling lights that are igniting The New.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\u201cWe\u201d are the changing form of the world.\u201d <\/b>~Mari, p.341 <\/span>Mirari<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"When I\u2019m writing poorly, I can get to feeling so low.\u00a0 I often call bad writing \u201cdribble.\u201d When it appears, I\u2019ll say to myself, \u201cI hope the dribble goes away.\u201d But what I am really hoping for is inspiration.
