For Then I Knew My Soul -

If We Seek God For Our Own Good And Profit, We Are Not Seeking God.

The Authorities Teach That Next To The First Emanation, Which Is The Son Coming Out Of The Father, The Angels Are Most Like God. And It May Well Be True, For The Soul At Its Highest Is Formed Like God, But An Angel Gives A Closer Idea Of Him. That Is All An Angel Is: An Idea Of God. For This Reason The Angel Was Sent To The Soul, So That The Soul Might Be Re-formed By It, To Be The Divine Idea By Which It Was First Conceived.

I Tell You The Truth, Any Object You Have In Your Mind, However Good, Will Be A Barrier Between You And The Inmost Truth.

Above All Else, Know This: Be Prepared At All Times For The Gifts Of God And Be Ready Always For New Ones. For God Is A Thousand Times More Ready To Give Than We Are To Receive

Become Aware Of What Is In You. Announce It, Pronounce It, Produce It, And Give Birth To It.
