new thoughts
What you are sure about, be less sure about.
This seems to be the main difficulty, at least for me. And when I'm sure about something, it's only natural that thoughts suggesting something else won't make it through the filter of my certainty. They don't really reach me even if I read and intellectually understand and appreciate them, even if I realize that my certainty is only old conditioning and not counting for much. New thoughts remain strangely lifeless (which I may not even notice) and are forgotten the next moment. New thoughts are offered to you, and there is a tendency to block them. Yes, that's what I have been observing in myself and others. It's more readily detectable in others, of course, for how could you see your own blind spots? You simply can't. God has to point them out to you, or you still won't see them a thousand years from now.
I believe this is the reason why many things are mentioned again and again in Heavenletters. This is how my certainties get loosened little by little until they can be extracted like that rotten old tooth I lost last week. I want to keep my certainties, and I want them to go, but it seems the die is cast.
My new thought is that love is.
And often I feel I almost get it when I read one of those indescribably sweet passages my mind cannot grasp while my heart clearly knows everythingt, for instance
You discover that you are Myself thinking of you (Myself). You do not exist separate from Me, which is to say, you do not exist. The train of thought you have gone off on seems like existence but you are an embodiment of that which is eternal love and cannot be embodied. You represent Me in this circular motion. You are My representative on Earth, even though there is no Earth. It certainly seems that there is Earth, for We walk on it, but We walk off into the Sunset or the Sunrise of which there is no difference, for We are beyond, and the sun neither sets nor rises except in this illusion We have temporarily agreed upon. We think it is Our playing field but it is merely a rumble of thought, a heartbeat of Oneness playing at something else.

WOW, I can't tell you the joy -- and the fear -- I feel reading Heavenletters.
Joy because I am awed that all is well and that I can feel God’s love.
Fear, because I’m kind of afraid to feel the joy, like it may go away. or I may go away.
I thank God for this moment of peacefulness.
