“I choose the second place to gain the first.”
First, second, third or last place – ranking becomes irrelevant to those who live inspired by the Truth that is revealed within. Everything you look upon with Love, with Tenderness, with Joy is true precisely because of your reception of it in Love and Tenderness and Joy. That is your creative power.
In a way today’s statement is an alert message. It reminds you to not take an appearance, circumstance or situation at face value, but to align within with the Light and only then look at the situation again in order to find the Light in it and link up with it. A step on the path to salvation.
