Faith in anything, be it positive or negative, produces results. Putting faith in fear generates destructive results, beginning with the disintegration of our ability to relate confidently to the external world.

So long as we use comfort and security as our criteria of success, we will fear our own intuitive guidance because by its very nature it directs us into new cycles of learning that are sometimes uncomfortable.

The reason you have descended into physical life is to unleash the power of your soul upon Earth.

Choice is your greatest power. It is an even greater power than love, because you must first choose to be a loving person.
