We also realize that we had to have the victory, it was our very reason for being here on earth, for this cause came I to this hour as Jesus expressed it. I have worried a lot unnecessarily over why it should have taken me 24years or nearly half a lifetime to recover my true spirit after a hallucination of the fall of conciousness within myself which was followed by many hard years and suffering until I realized that it was all my own choice as a human nature conciousness to keep posponing really giving my all to my higher purpose in order I imagined to enjoy longer my own selfish purposes and mostly because I was afraid of God. And I was afraid of God because I knew deep down that I was not being wholehearted and true to my highest sense of self. But God is patient and merciful and kind and gracious and He led me carefully through the difficulties and responsibilities which were my meat that I might finally grow up. Now I accept that the length of time taken was largely on account of my own faults and failures.This most faithful One that I am in truth and know and love above all others has never tired of me or given up for any reason no matter what but rather has restored me to my former glory with him and I know and understand far more than I did in my old life,mostly the lenghts of love to which Our heavenly father will go to help anyone And also Chris there is the joy of sharing victory however hard won with others and then of maybe seeing that original victory multiply as the fruit of our labours.
