THE KEY TO JOY IS DISOBEDIENCE.
A MAN WHO IS DOING HIS TRUE WILL has the inertia of the universe to assist him. ALEISTER CROWLEY
ENTER INTO MY PEACE THIS DAY, shut out all the noise and confusion of the world and come into the secret place where there is perfect inner stillness and peace which nothing can disturb or destroy. come to terms with yourself, with life, cease fighting against it. Next time this happens to you, be absolutely silent and radiate love to who or what is doing you an injustice. It is not easy when you feel you have been treated unjustly to have no reaction; of yourself you certainly are not able to do this. But this is where you turn to Me for help and draw on My strength, knowing that without Me you can do nothing but with Me you can do all things.
