How easy it is to lash out at the world situation and complain about it, blaming everyone but yourself for it! It is easy to say, ‘Why don’t they do something about it?’ What about you doing something about it? Never sit back and feel helpless and imagine that you can do nothing to help. You can help and you can start helping right now. You can start by putting your own house in order. You can smooth out all those misunderstandings and try righting those wrongs. You can expand your consciousness so that you are able to see life from a different and wider angle. You can learn to be more tolerant, to be more open, more loving, and to see both sides of the picture. You can start right now banishing all bitterness, criticism and negativity in your thinking. You will find as you do your part, you will be helping the whole. But you cannot do it on your own. Do it with My help.
去指控與抱怨世界上的狀況是多麼容易啊,責怪每一個人除了我自己!說「他們為什麼不為此做些什麼」是很容易的,那我去做些什麼如何呢?永遠不要做旁觀者,感到無助,並且想像我對此無能為力。我可以對它有所幫助,我現在就可以去幫助。我可以從整理我的屋子開始。我可以化解所有的誤會,並且嘗試去更正錯誤。
我可以擴展我的意識層面,所以我能夠以一個不同的、更開闊的角度看待生活。我可以去學習變得更加寬容、更加敞開、更加有愛,以及去看見事物的兩面性。我可以現在就開始,消除我的想法中的,所有的憎恨、批判以及負面。我會發現當我做了我的部分,我就會對整體有所幫助。但我無法只靠自己做到這一切。在上天的幫助下去做。
