Play the Game of Life with
Empowerment
...Many
books are available to give hints, information, and inspiration on our journeys
of discovery. Nevertheless, you ultimately have to discover your own power
in your own way. Just as you have to take your own physical exam and your
own driving test - no matter how many servants you may have who would be
willing to take them for you - in the same way, your spiritual happiness
is ultimately your task alone, although supported and nourished by the blessings
and grace of many known and unknown great ones from past, present, future,
and the eternal now.
Part of becoming strong enough to handle a great amount of personal power
is to have to go through the lessons and growth of watching and learning
for yourself. It's like how a butterfly must struggle against the cocoon
in order to develop the wing strength to fly. If someone tries to be helpful
by opening the cocoon, the butterfly will not be able to fly.
...more of this chapter is available in the book, "Secrets of Spiritual Happiness," by Sharon Janis.
