上帝想要你知道#1
在你人生中的這一天，上帝想要你知道……
……一切生命都是由單一的神奇能量所驅動，
它是一切事物——也包括你——的本質。
這是不是很神奇？因為這本質就是你之為你，
你是由它所組成，很顯然，它永遠不會離開你。
也許並不明顯的是，知道這一點會給你帶來極大的幫助。
在緊張時，它可以給你帶來和平，
在恐懼時，它可以給你帶來勇氣，
在困惑時，它可以給你帶來智慧，
在憤怒時，它可以給你帶來寬恕，
在你人生的每一刻，它都可以給你帶來愛。
你要做的只是，知道這是真的，
此時此刻，對你而言，這是真的。
我想，這真的很妙，你覺得呢？
你已經知道
這個特別的提醒
為什麼會在今天來到你面前……
你的朋友

God Wants You To Know #2On this day of your life, dear friend God wants you to know...
.
...that youare a pure child of God, beautiful in your innocence -- and
that this is true no matter what youmay have done.
There is no offense you could ever commit that can rob you of your
magnificence, or of the wonder of who you are. Gosh, Eliot Spitzer"s
drama has brought up a lot of stuff for all of us, hasn"t it? Yet who
among us hasn"t fallen from the path, betrayed another, acted
unwisely, fallen prey to temptation, given in to a craving or addiction?
All of us are human. And in God"s eyes that makes us perfect.
Really. Just the way we are. Like 3-year-olds, looking anxiously
up at some elder, wondering with quivering lips whether we"ll get
a spanking for breaking the rules...
The 3-year-old is beautiful in her innocence. He is pure as snow,
and there is simply something that has not been totally understood,
or fully integrated into behavior yet. It"s okay. We don"t mean to
be "bad." And in truth, we aren"t. Not a one of us.
We"re simply, sometimes, mistaken. And God loves us anyway.
Immensely. Completely. Eternally.
Just as we are.
Oh, and by the way, you already know
the reason that this particular reminder
came to you today...
Love, Your Friend
上帝想要你知道#2在你人生中的這一天，親愛的朋友，上帝想要你知道……
……你是上帝純潔的孩子，美麗，天真——
無論你做了什麼，都是如此。
無論你作出怎樣的冒犯之舉，也無損於你的華美，或你之為你的神奇。
天哪，紐約州長Eliot Spitzer的招妓醜聞讓我們想到很多，不是嗎？
然而，我們當中有誰不曾誤入歧途、背叛他人、做出不智之舉、為誘惑所俘、屈服於慾望和癮癖？
我們都是人。在上帝的眼中，我們看起來都是完美的。
真的，我們本來就是如此。就如三歲的孩童，焦急地抬頭看著大人，嘴唇發顫，不知道會不會因為犯錯而被打屁股……
三歲孩童的天真是美麗的。他就像白雪一樣純潔，只是有些事還沒有完全明白，或還沒有完全據以行動。沒關係。我們不是故意「作惡」。確實，我們不是故意的。沒有人是故意的。
有時候，我們只是會犯錯。不管怎樣，上帝愛我們。
上帝的愛是無限的，全然的，永恆的。
正如我們也是如此。
哦，對了，你已經知道，
這個特別的提醒
為什麼會在今天來到你面前……

God Wants You To Know #4On this day of your life, dear friend God wants you to know...
..
...that money problems can evaporate in the blink of an eye,
and that you are eternally abundant.
I know, I know...it sometimes doesn"t seem that way, but the
truth is, you always have everything you need, right here, right
now. Do you know how I know?You"re stillhere. If you hadn"t
always been given everything you ever needed, you wouldn"t
be here.
Now all that is necessary is for you to understand this deeply.
Then,stop worrying. You"ll be okay. Wait and see.
Or better yet, don"t wait at all. Experience this right now.
And remember it when things don"t look so good
(in your imagination).
You already know the reason

…….金錢的問題會在眨眼間消失，並且，你永遠都是富足的。
我知道，我知道，有時情形似乎並非如此，
但事實是，此時此地，你永遠都擁有你所需要的一切。
你知道我是如何知道的嗎？因為你依然在這裡。如果你一直都沒有得到你所需要的一切，你就不可能還在這裡。
現在，你只要深深地理解這一點。然後，不再擔憂。你會沒事的。
等著瞧吧。甚至根本不用等。
就在此刻體驗你的富有。當事情似乎不太妙的時候（出於你的想像），牢記這一點。

……當你把這一周的工作做完時，你也可以「一勞永逸」。
我們所謂的「工作」，可以是，也應該是，一種享受。
你現在就可以開始享受——無論你現在在做什麼。
只要把你每天手頭的工作看作是通往你想去的地方的道路。
然後，感激生命已經給了你這條道路。
