On Day 217, we saw that the ‘I am bad’ belief incites denial and repression instead of healing. The goal of NTI 2 Thessalonians is to help us transcend the ‘I am bad’ belief so we can heal (let go of the false and realize the true) more quickly and more effectively. When this stumbling block is out of the way, the road is clear to find our way to awakening more easily (assuming our desire for truth remains strong).
Thoughts of Awakening # 222
The truth of your Self is within.
It may seem hidden from you,
but it is not hidden.
It is within
and it is you,
as close as your own heart.
Even closer.
As close as your breath.
If your own truth is so close,
so inseparable from your own nature,
why is it that you cannot sense it…
cannot seem to know it?
It is because you are choosing to know
something else as your self.
Look at your choice.
See what you are choosing and ask,
“Am I willing to place this aside
in order to know something more?”
~From our Holy Spirit
