2-57. Truth is simply True. It asks for nothing, requires nothing and gives Everything. Reject it if you wish and dwell in darkness. When you are ready, it will still be True.
Although Truth has as many aspects as God, which is truly to say that it is just as Infinite as the Mind of God, the most important aspect of Truth is simply that you are Loved. Because you are Loved, nothing else truly matters. There is much more to Truth than Love, but Love is quite enough. You can reject this Love for as long as you’d like. You can remain forever ensconced within the seemingly insurmountable boundaries of the ego for a long as you wish to dwell within its imaginary kingdom of pain. You will not be rousted from your sleep by God, for God will simply wait until you are ready to ask to be Awoken from your nightmarish slumber, accepting again what it was that you Knew when you were Created. God has no need to rush you along on your journey to Return to Truth, for God has - literally - all of the time in the world and then so much more space even than that that there is no need for God to attempt to Awaken you before your time. This time can occur at any moment, in any place and for any reason. Generally, a great many Children of God will find themselves desirous of spending an enormous amount of time within the falsities and illusions of the ego before they will be ready to request to Return to the Mind of God, leaving behind their pitifully incorrect notions of themselves as being at all limited, forgotten by God or cast out of the Kingdom of Heaven for any reason, or perhaps within their befuttled and bewildered minds - for no apparent reason at all. They do not actually need this time, for to Return to God is effortless. But they may find benefit in dwelling within the false mind of the ego for as long as they need, so that they might finally relent and to admit that what their egos have offered them has been of no value whatsoever. This is not relevant to their overarching progress, for it is only possible to move more closely towards the Mind of God or to simply remain as you are, trying in vain to find any reason at all that might justify your insane notions that God might ever have elected to stop Loving you. God will not do this. God will never stop Loving you, nor will God ever stop knowing you just as you are - as the Perfect Child of God you were when you were Created, just as you remain now and just as you will always be. However because God has no need to Call you Home at any time that is not appropriate for you, God will wait and you will remain trapped in beliefs that have no value for you until you are finally ready to relent and to accept the simple Truth that because you are Loved, you are already Complete. Your acceptance of your own Completion through the Love of God is for you to choose, when you are ready and not at any moment before the time at which you are willing to See yourself as you actually Are, in Truth. You will not See yourself with your body’s eyes, for your body is in no way a reflection of your Perfection in any form. Bodies are designed and intended to wither and fail, as must everything that is of form in any way, for all of this world and its inhabitants are temporary, just as they should be. What you will See will be recognized by and through your heart, a process of great allowing, a final release and surrender and a wonderfully liberating acceptance, allowing the Light of Love to be See again, just as Perfect as it has always been, never altered by your thoughts of littleness, pitiful impermanence or irrelevance in any manner. Truth asks nothing of you, for there is nothing that you actually need to do - God has performed all of the work of Creation. You are asked merely to accept that Perfection is already Real and to put down the dreams of the ego in favor of your permanent and irreplaceable place within the Creation that is all that is actually Real. Truth does not require you to do anything at all to Remember its Light. Truth stands, forever Complete, Knowing you just as you are - as the Light of Love Itself, temporarily enrobed in a covering of flesh, living a life and possessing the ability to be Aware. However what it is that you choose to be aware of will govern all that you experience as being Real. If you wish to live in darkness, scrambling about on the surface of a great and mighty planet which can easily provide all of the material resources that you might ever have need of, you are welcome to do so for as long as you feel you must. But it need not be this way. There is another system of Awareness and perception that will free you from the illusionary bonds that seem so able to enshackle you, demanding that you suffer and eventually - perhaps mercifully from your incorrect perspective - finally die and be released from this prison of physical existence. But you will not perish when your body fails. You will alight, Returning your conscious fully to the Mind of God, perhaps only then Remembering the Love that was your origin and that sustains your Soul for all of time and far beyond its illusionary limits. However you need not wait until you experience physical death to leave this world behind, Returning though the mighty Gate that is forever accessible in the center of your heart, Remembering the Love of God and leaving behind all that seemed to restrict you in any way. All moments, any moment and every moment contain within their vastness more than sufficient amounts of space to allow you to set down the dreams of the ego in favor of the Light of Love. You can attempt to stand apart from God for as long as you’d like - God will not weep at your personal darkness, for it has never actually existed and as such, it is not Real. God is Real. Love is Real. Truth is Real. Nothing more than this will you ever need to turn your attention away from your ego, returning it to its proper place - focused upon the Glory that is the Truth of Love. Truth will remain forever still, awaiting your acceptance of Its Light, Knowing you just as you are, eternally Certain of your infinite Value to God and to yourself. Remain as you wish to be for as long as you so desire - there is no need to rush headlong down a Path that you are not yet ready to journey upon. This Path leads solely back to God and to the Light of Love. You may take each step just when you are ready, delaying for as long as you’d like, for your Return is already Certain. Truth will wait for you, Knowing you just as you were Created, never accepting anything less than your complete surrender to Love, a surrender which will transform everything from an abysmally dark and completely empty wasteland of the ego into the Garden of Light that is both your origin and your final destination. This Garden awaits your Return to Love. The Path is set and the Gate is open. Look solely to - and eventually through - the center of your heart and the Light of Love will Guide you forever onwards, Returning you to your Home with the Heart of God. Delay if you wish, but know most Precious Child of God - you will find your way Home, and Truth will be waiting to greet you with open arms and with Joy - pure, unadulterated and unlimited Joy, for all of Heaven will be refreshed and renewed when you are finally willing to accept that you never left - you merely delayed your awareness of the Perfection of Creation for such a short period of time that to say that it actually occurred, when it is regarded from the perspective of Infinity, will simply be recognized as the utter nonsense that only an error as great as the ego could have ever considered to be an acceptable substitute for Truth.
