Reflecting Truth

"If I hear your prayers, it is because you come before me with a clean heart, free from falsehood and hypocrisy, with a soul which reflects truth like a mirror. Shintoism, The Urantia Book, (131:7.2)
perception determines belief
How you perceive yourself, in relation to your fellow beings, within your circle, to the intelligent and inhabited cosmos, and to the Paradise Father of all, who indwells you, determines your degree of un-reality or reality. For one to win over the other…you must bring your internal civil war to an end…in which case, you are left as either “mere physical animal” or “evolving soul” that is ever-ascending into higher and higher and greater and greater levels of reality-attainment. Perception determines beLIEf determines your state of vibration--positive or negative, beLIEf rising to fAIth (Attained Insight) in God's will triumphing over evil, sin and wickedness, or beLIEf descending into insanity; the vibrant healthiness of the head, heart, soul in spirit connection, or rapid decay of health leading to continual illness, dis-ease and premature death of the material life mechanism. Perception in one direction leads to un-reality and cosmic death, from which, there is no resurrection. The other leads to sanity, inner peace, wisdom, love for others, unselfish service, true character, the dominance of perfect personality over imperfect hue-manimal self (ego-pride), and unity with Father's indwelling spirit-presence, evolving into eternal life. The choice is ever and always an individual one. Which one are you choosing? What choice are you ever-momentarily making? Are you allowing yourself to connect with Father's indwelling spirit-presence (the still small voice within)? Or are you choosing the…downward descent…into the “God-less” material animal state…and…eternal death…? Copyright Timothy Ray Walls 2020

You Are the Victim of Your Own Mind | Any Questions?

 you are the victim of your own mind You Are the Victim of Your Own Mind  Any Questions? Victimization by Others vs. Self-victimization Is there a point where early victimization (by others) in childhood is no longer other-victimization but self-victimization? At what age could this be said to be true? Being victimized by parents (one or both), by foster parents (one or both), by a step-dad or step-mom (or both), an uncle, an aunt, a cousin, etc. begins a life-long tragedy of suffering in the mind of the victimized individual. But when the victimization by another or others stops (for whatever reason), at what point do you continue on in self-victimization , when you are old enough to make a different choice? The answer is likely that of personal choices to grow or to not grow in soul-awareness. In my own experience, it took until 29 years of age to make a different choice--a soul-conscious choice to no longer victimize myself and start down the path to healing. It took 11 mor...

the first 4 of the 28 principles in the urantia book The 1st of the 28 Principles  in The Urantia Book  The Great Question Number One 1. Is courage—strength of character—desirable? Then must man be reared in an environment which necessitates grappling with hardships and reacting to disappointments. The Great Goal of Hue-man Attainment It is to the mind of perfect poise, housed in a body of clean habits, stabilized neural energies, and balanced chemical function—when the physical, mental, and spiritual powers are in triune harmony of development—that a maximum of light and truth can be imparted with a minimum of temporal danger or risk to the real welfare of such a being. By such a balanced growth does man ascend the circles of planetary progression one by one, from the seventh to the first. The Urantia Book 110:6.4    On the Path to Understanding the "Mastery of Self" It is accurate to say that "understanding" the 28 principles of "high mortal philosophy" ...

  arrogance is the camouflage of insecurity Arrogance is the Camouflage of Insecurity   What Do YOU Fear that Makes YOU Arrogant? Give Me Liberty If one man craves freedom — liberty — he must remember that all other men long for the same freedom. The Urantia Book , ( 134:6.1 ) Arrogance is Mimicry I was recently asked on social media: " So tell me please, when did you first come to think something like soul could be real, do you remember?" And my response was: Thank you for asking this question, a rare question indeed in my experience and an excellent one. (I love for others to ask questions of me.) The First Moral Decision At five and one-half years of age I made a more unconscious than conscious decision that I wanted to be  like God, based on the little information provided to me by my grandmother.  I admired the qualities of character of the idea and concept of God, because I admired those same qualities which I saw in my grandmother. To the child mind, it w...
