Your Responsibility to Yourself



There is a deep responsibility you owe yourself, and one which you must learn to remember ALL the time. The lesson will seem hard at first, but you will learn to love it, when you realize that it is true, and constitutes a tribute to your power. You who have sought AND FOUND littleness, remember this: Every decision that you make stems from WHAT YOU THINK YOU ARE, and represents the value that you PUT upon yourself. Believe the little can content you, and, by LIMITING yourself, you will NOT be satisfied. For your function is NOT little, and it is only by finding your function, and fulfilling it that you can ESCAPE from littleness.

There is no doubt about what your function IS, for the Holy Spirit KNOWS what it is. There is no doubt about its magnitude, for it reaches you through Him, FROM Magnitude. You do not have to strive for it, because you HAVE it. All your striving must be directed AGAINST LITTLENESS, for it DOES require vigilance to protect your magnitude in this world. To hold your magnitude in perfect awareness, in a world of littleness, is a task the little cannot undertake. Yet it is asked of you, in tribute to your magnitude, and NOT your littleness. Nor is it asked of you alone.

Knowledge is not the motivation for learning this course. Peace is.

The goal of the curriculum, regardless of the teacher you choose, is “Know Thyself.” There is nothing else to seek.

The ego teaches that your strength is in you alone. The ego does not know what it is trying to teach. It is trying to teach you what you are without knowing what you are.

The Holy Spirit teaches you that if you look only at yourself you cannot find yourself, because that is not what you are. The Holy Spirit teaches that all strength is in God and therefore in you.

When you meet anyone, remember it is a holy encounter. You can encounter only part of yourself because you are part of God, Who is everything. His power and glory are everywhere, and you cannot be excluded from them.

Your power and glory are in your brother, because they are yours.  As you see your brother, you will see yourself. As you treat him you will treat yourself. As you think of him you will think of yourself. Never forget this, for in him you will either find yourself or lose yourself. Whenever you are with anyone, you are learning what you are because you are teaching what you are. Never forget your responsibility to your brother, because it is your responsibility to yourself.

Give him his place in the Kingdom and you will have yours. You cannot be powerless to do this, because this is your power.

When you acknowledge this you bring the acknowledgment automatically to everyone, because you have acknowledged everyone. By your recognition you awaken theirs, and through theirs yours is extended. 

It’s time for you. The Spirit carried you here.
