I Am ... Faithful

Excerpted from A Return to Love: Reflections on the Principles of A Course in Miracles, one of my favorite books ever (my 3rd favorite after the Bible - # 1 and Gary Zukav's The Seat of the Soul - # 2), from which this blog is named.*

"To trust in the force that moves the universe is faith. Faith isn't blind, it's visionary. Faith is believing that the universe is on our side and that the universe knows what it's doing. Faith is a psychological awareness of an unfolding force for good, constantly at work in all dimensions. Our attempts to direct this force only interferes with it. Our willingness to relax into it allows it to work on our behalf. Without faith, we're frantically trying to control what it is not our business to control and fix what it is not in our power to fix. What we're trying to control is much better off without us, and what we're trying to fix can't be fixed by us anyway. Without faith, we're wasting time."

The asterik on the title of this blog is a reference to 2 passages in Marianne Williamson's A Return To Love ... another book I love. You can find out what these passages say about "Avalon" and "Fairytales" on pages xxiv and 47, respectively.
