Immortality (2/5)

Infinite Way Letter April 1955 By Joel Goldsmith Part 2 of 5 Immortality – continued When an old and beloved friend has passed, the question is often asked: What can be done now and in the future? Is there a God? If there is a God, not even a sparrow falls. If there isa God, life is continuous and progressive: the passing from this plane of existence is merely a passing from one of the many mansions into another of the many mansions.

Grace (4/4)

To believe that a search must have an ending, and that it is useless without one, is to cling still to the material belief of struggle and fulfillment, of winning a final prize, a crown set upon one’s head.

Starting The Contemplative Life (3/5)

Always must be the remembrance, then, that what God is doing, God is doing – and needs not your help, and cannot be controlled by you. God’s grace can’t be stopped.
