A BOOK EXTRACT: THE REAL, THE TRUE JESUS (Part Three)
The following are some notes, personal thoughts and short extracts from a manuscript ("spiritual") c is currently writing, as he learns more about and studies the life of Jesus. As he take notes, contemplates and shares these thoughts ("rather deep"), he learns more about his own "spiritual jou
ey" ("We are all human beings on a spiritual jou
ey").

c is "working"on putting the pieces together; so is sharing these short extracts from different chapters . ("I'll put some pieces online, as I write the manuscript and sort out the sequence (not easy for me!). Enjoy, these writings "out there in cyberspace" . . . and if you want to use or republish, that's "perfectly OK" with me").

THE REAL, THE TRUE JESUS: THE WORD

Conclusion:

"Nobody (and no religion*) has a monopoly on enlightenment and each of us can be enriched by being open to others and by being committed to working with them, if for no other reason, they are human like us."

• inspiring words from Patrick J.Lynch, CEO of New Zealand Catholic Education Officer

PEACE

A NEW GOD FOR A NEW WORLD

A STORY OF RENEWAL and TRANSFORMATION - A NEW HEART

"The Prince of Peace"

CHOOSE to make God as BIG, as Infinite as you can possibly conceive. YOU choose.

"The difference between the vengeful God of the Old Testament and the loving God of the New Testament is that human consciousness was ready for a shift in perception." - Dr Deepak Chopra writing in his book 'The Third Jesus"

"Without the Father I can do nothing."

The principles you live BY create the world you live in.

Plant seeds of hope. From seeds of hope to endless possibilities. Plant, then sow seeds, one mind, one soul at a time.

Know where you WANT to be and become.

Every problem has a spiritual solution.

I have a passion for mutual tolerance and moderation, trying little by little, to break down barriers between people. CHOOSE to do the highest good for the greatest number of people.

God loves new beginnings. There are endless possibilities in little beginnings.

Tackle new possibilities...TODAY!

Jesus came to heal the broken-hearted, the broken in spirit (like you and I inevitably at some times in our lives). As with the prodigal son, he came to give hope, the greatest hope: that of new life, hope for a new beginning - one not divided by the past... but with hope for the future.

Gently breaking over the pitch black horizon, in grandiose splendour, the golden early morning sun announced the coming of a beautiful new day...one filled with great insight and brilliant light in a new glorious dawn.

"And the one sitting on the throne said, 'Look, I am making all things new!' And then he said to me, 'Write this down, for what I tell you is trustworthy and true. And he also said, 'It is finished! I am the Alpha and the Omega - the Beginning and the End. To all who are thirsty, I will give the springs of the water of life without charge." - Revelation 21:5

Written by the Holy Spirit... "And you shall know the truth... and the truth shall make you free."

"It is finished.

Father, unto thy hands I commit my spirit."

APPENDIX PRAYER

Lord,

Fill me with a huge helping of Your Infinite Spirit . . . daily. Use me to share your simple message of justice, hope, peace and especially love with the world...TODAY. Use my "little life" as a focus for your endless possibilities. Let your Infinite Spirit shine through these words.

* Lord, Use me as a channel for your peace, a window for your light to shine through to everyone I meet. Let me embrace the light of justice, truth, hope and especially love. A glorious vision, one resplendent in the bright glory of God, a bright morning star to guide me and my life.. forever.

"God is a mystery, a Creative Presence, who allows me to be who I really want to be and become. "

Hope is the anchor of the soul."

From the depth of the valleys, in the deserts of despair, there is hope… as there is the unquenchable oasis, the immense breadth and depth of the human spirit… always."

"When you have hope in your heart, then you'll never walk alone."

• craig (as inspired by the signage at the Liverpool football stadium in England)

Together, one mind, one life at a time, let's see how many people we can impact, empower, uplift, encourage ... and perhaps even inspire to reach their fullest potentials."
