Here are three ways to search through the history of over 5,000 Loving Each Day quotes by John-Roger and John Morton.
The "stuff" in our life that we can't handle, the so called "overwhelm" is our mis-creation. Have the wit to let it go and be glad in the parting.
It's much more difficult to have the inner experience of Spirit if you're running around in the world lying and cheating and getting into all sorts of trouble. Many times you get the inner experience of your own sacredness by sitting down and detaching yourself form the physical world in a form of meditation, contemplation or spiritual exercises.
Forgive yourself and the other person. Forgive the emotions you ran on someone else. Forgive the other person. For to err is human; to forgive, divine.
I've given you the key to the inner worlds and told you that you have to build some muscle, through spiritual exercises, in order to get there. Spend a little time with the Mystical Traveler. Just forsake this world for a little while and go with the Traveler to where you are. Some of you do your spiritual exercises and touch into your reality for a little bit, and things straighten out really well; then you go off and gallivant around and forsake the very thing that you are. And you wonder what's wrong. Do your spiritual exercises until you are so full inside that no matter where you go and what you do, that fullness is always there.
When you meditate, the ego wants to feel like it has accomplished something after sitting there all that time. But why give up your precious attention to your ego? That will just create defeat: Anxieties, animosities, depressions, insanities, and general craziness. Instead of allowing your ego to push you around, observe, then choose wisely where you will place your thoughts and actions.
God is in control just so we can relax and be patient.
Anyone who is residing in the power of love is never destroyed, never separated, always free, always up, always growing.
If you're not forgiving your enemies seven times seventy, if you're not loving your neighbor as yourself, if you're not loving God with all your body, mind, and Soul -- if none of that's being done, if none of that is true, if none of that's possible and you can't do that, then you can just put on a tin bill and go out and pick feed with the rest of the chickens, because it's of no avail to do anything else. And if it is true, then why aren't we getting to it? Maybe it's because someone left off some of the steps that have to be done. They forgot to say, "This is a planet of trial and error and making mistakes." So get on with doing that so you can correct your errors, and then start to live a life of showing other people.
To move inside to your own spiritual inner awareness is not always easy to do by yourself. But then, you weren't put here by yourself, either. You were put here as part of the body of God, as heir to the kingdom of Heaven.
Practice the discipline of holding your attention on a thought. It won't make you a slave; on the contrary, it will teach you how to be in control of it. When you can control, focusing your attention, you can free your mind. Observation is the key to doing this. When you can free up your attention, you can put it where you want it.
