Here are some excerpts from that poem: Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could . . . Two roads diverged in a wood, and I- I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference. Over the years, you've probably heard Joseph and other teachers say all our power is in this present moment. But that notion does not make a lot of sense to so many struggling souls on this planet today. Especially those who feel shackled by the past, and the choices and 'mistakes' they made way back then. They often agonize over the road they chose -- perhaps the one less traveled by. Or perhaps the road not taken. Here's Chief Joseph. CHIEF JOSEPH What you perceive as linear time is not at all what you think. Even on this earth plane you occupy, time is not what you think. It is not a progression from past to present to future. You see, friends, past, present, and future all exist now. That is why we always say all your power is in this present moment. Everything that has ever happened exists now. Obviously, everything that is happening exists now. And everything that will happen exists now. Those of you familiar with our friend Seth have heard him call these probable (or parallel) realities. But they are not probable in the sense that they might happen some day. They are happening right now. That is why we often say you are not shackled by your so called 'past.' Your 'past' is now. Your future is now. All of it is now. Your past is happening now, your future is happening now. What you perceive as linear time is simply a movement of your conscious awareness, or your focus, from one point in the grid of all that is to another point. It all exists now. And you create your now reality by what you choose to focus on. Of all the possible paths you could take, you choose the one you do take by your deliberate choice and focus. Or, if you decide not to choose (which is still a choice), you choose by default. And you create and re-create your past and your future realities by what you choose to focus on now. Neither the past nor the future are fixed. All your power is now, and you choose what your past and future are now. Friends, do you see how your awareness of this brings you total freedom? The past is not over and done with. The future is not pre-ordained. You can mold your past and your future by how you flow your consciousness now. Time does not exist. All there is is your flow of consciousness. And you get to choose how you will focus your consciousness, and how you will mold and create the reality of your wildest dreams. You are free -- totally and utterly free!

It is a conviction that cannot be blurred even by the reality of human suffering.Unfortunately, unlike Paul, many of us do not trust God as our sovereign Lord. We spend so much of our time and energies running around trying to reason things out and only running into dead end streets. We have enormous difficulty understanding and accepting the obvious spiritual truth that being goo… 2. Wings of a Dove By Saundra L. Washington
