I am a Facebook friend with Jack Armstrong, author of "Lessons from the Source," which is one of those amazing auto-written books.

Like Conversations with God and A Course in Miracles, the writings in Lessons from the Source were received by Jack Armstrong from an unknown inner source and transcribed through a form of channeling known as Inner Dictation.

Today he posted a piece of a chapter from his book, in response to the many messages he's been receiving about his wife's illness.

I thought it was worth sharing...

Quote:
Chapter Two of Lessons from the Source.

"It is easy for you to identify and give thanks for the major blessings in your life, and your gratitude for them is very important. But what is harder for you to understand is that everything in your life—every person, every encounter, everything that happens to you, everything that you can see or feel or sense in any way—is a blessing. The challenge here, of course, is in seeing everything as a blessing. Human consciousness finds hatred and anger and pain and despair and illness and all of the other “negatives” of the world to be anything but a blessing. It is agonizingly difficult for you to find the blessings in life’s most difficult moments, but it is essential that your faith remind you of the importance of acting as if they were there. Offer thanks for them, even when you have no idea what those blessings might be."
