---------------------------------------------------------------------------

The light is to shine in you and not merely on you. We are thus brought
into its clearness, dispelling our inner darkness. Its shinning on us draws
us to its consciousness, while its shinning in us becomes our
consciousness. Being drawn to the light, we enter into it. In our entering
it, we become one with it. Our expressing it is our assurance we are one
with it --- being as it is (Shinning lights). Fear of entering it results
from our misconception of it, in relation to the darkness we are of. Faith
overcomes this. This is the victory.

We have been deceived into perceiving darkness as light, and light as
darkness. A simple consequence of our no longer being of the light, and
therewith, our not perceiving of its consciousness. The battle freeing us
of this misconception is a contest of faith over fear. Each victory over
fear is a step in that direction, expanding our vision, and therewith, our
being.

We should remember that being of light is our first and natural estate.
This memory is our source of guidance on our journey back to the light.
That silent voice soothing our journey and calling to us from our inner
being. It is sometimes referred to as conscience. Disregarding it, we
become engulfed by the darkness loosing our way. The end result is our
spiritual death.

The written word of scriptures (that voice in another form) like it, bears
witness to the light. The living word (inspiration) manifested supremely in
the person of Christ, is that perfect from expressing the light. Our
failure to respond leaves us without a medium between us and the light.
What remains is a direct encounter with the light, resulting in the total
consumption of our being. We cease to be entities one with, yet independent
of, the light. Being absorbed back into the light, we are no more! The
tragic loss of the Soul, having not come to birth.
