In NTI Galatians 1, Jesus said:
I am the Way and the Life. I come to you on this day to clear up your confusion, … It is nothing and can be easily laid aside when you see the simplicity of love as I offer it to you.
Today’s reading tells us:
… the simple way to know love and extend love within the world is to:
Focus on your willingness …
Willingness is the state of wanting to awaken to truth and being mentally, emotionally, and spiritually ready to do it, even if learning must occur in the process.
Willingness is the birth (the beginning) of awakening.
The opposite of willingness is resistance. Therefore, resistance can be defined as not wanting to awaken to truth. Another way to say that is:
Resistance is attachment to the world.
NTI Galatians 4 pointed out that the world is a false god. Therefore, the question that we need to ask ourselves is this:
Which do I prefer, a false god or the supreme and ultimate reality?
NTI Galatians comes to us as the voice of Jesus. It harnesses the essence of his experience as a human who awakened to truth. Based on his experience, belief in the world is a primary obstacle to truth. Willingness to transcend the world is the key to awakening.
I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world. ~ John 16:33 (NIV)
