New Age Spirituality – Morning Has Been All Night Coming ( Part 66)
“Then how come you knew what I was thinking?” I asked. “Our thoughts became one for a little while, so I was aware of the essence of what was in your mind. You do that all the time, you know. How often in the past few years have you been able to answer people’s questions before the questions were ever asked?”
“Yes,I see what you mean,” I said. Now I was thinking of Mardai and the years we had spent together. Memories of the past started flowing fast and furious through my …

Here I was, concerned about the major problems I faced in life, and there was Theo telling me about trees. Yet, what he said truly made sense. Sometimes we are so busy with the things that seem important that we forget those that are truly important — our children,our mates,our friends,our Earth.
“I think I’ll have some more wine,” I said as I reached for the bottle. I poured some in my glass and offered some to the others. It certainly was the best wine I had ever tasted….

“Come now, John!” Marla said. “You meet with God and it’s not important? You ask questions of Jesus, the Buddha, Gandhi and others, and you wonder whether you were dreaming or really experiencing the events? You conversed with your dad who had died a few years earlier, and you think it’s your imagination? Listen, John, there is an extremely fine line between reality and dreams. In their own dimensions, they are each very real. The trick is to know which is which and to put to…

“John, stop putting yourself down. There’s been enough of that in the past. We enjoyed your company. You’re just striving to learn more, to know more and to be a better person. That’s why you ask so many questions. You can never annoy us. We love you too much. Let’s go. After you get a good night’s rest, you’ll feel much better.” “Thanks, Gideon. Please, let me help pay for dinner.” “No, John. It goes on my expense account. Remember we work for G&M Enterprises, Inc. The pay i…

In the middle of trying to put the pieces together, there was a banging on my bedroom door and, as they sometimes do, Malika and Jonathan rushed in.
“Hi, Daddy!” Shouted Jonathan.
“We thought you were sleeping,” said Malika. “But when we heard the phone, we knew you had to be awake.” “Hi kids,” I said. “Is everything OK?”
They must have seen the confusion on my face as I sat there. Malika replied, “Yes, of course. What’s the matter, Daddy?”
“Nothing. Did you and J…

Suddenly the sunlight broke through the clouds and flooded the area with warmth and hope. Birds appeared as if out of nowhere, and way off in the distance, the arc of a rainbow emerged, then slowly disappeared. I returned to the house to help the children prepare breakfast.
A little later in the day, I drove around the neighborhood. Trees were uprooted, power lines cut, and debris scattered all over, but fortunately, no one was injured. Within a few days, most of these unf…

That part of us which seems to know,which seems to be so silent and serene, that God-part placed there by our Creator is ever so loving, ever so kind and always our conscience and our guide. Somehow,I felt safe and sure of my world at this moment. I wasn’t afraid of sequences of events or even consequences. I was just grateful that a whole New World was opening up for me as fast as it was.
Returning home, the first thing I heard was the phone ringing. These days, I’m reluc…

I spent some time with the children and then started preparing for the next day. There was little to do, and since tomorrow would be a long day, we turned in early. Sleep is a gift. It calms the troubled heart and restores to the mind and body the necessary strength and energy to continue living one day at a time. I must have slept well, for when I woke up I was totally refreshed and ready to go.
I arrived at the airport on schedule, checked in and boarded my plane. This w…

“Of course, John,” he said. “We heard that you were going to be on this flight, and since we had a meeting at Headquarters, we figured we’d join you and keep you company for a while. Always good to see a friend.”
“But how did you get on the plane?” I asked.
“Listen,” said Marla. “Why walk on water when you can fly?”
“John,” said Gideon, “there are other ways of traveling that you’re not acquainted with, yet. We are here and that’s what’s important. How long are you …

“Yes,” Marla joined in. “Ask God any questions you want. He never refuses to answer, although sometimes, He does not offer explanations. This can be frustrating, but that’s how you’ll learn.”
“I’ve longed to see Him again,” I said. “There are so many things I want to know and, yet, all the questions I had are gone from my mind. This is ridiculous, you know.” Before either one could answer the receptionist came over and spoke. “You may go in now. The usual meeting room, Gid…
