Sit in a quiet corner of the room, relax, take a deep breath, exhale, and let peace wash over you.\u00a0 Get together and become aware: you live. Say to yourself, “I live!” \u00a0Say your name.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

After five to ten minutes, become aware that you are a newcomer, a guest on earth. Someone – God – sent you to earth. He’s here with you. He holds your life. You are not only a body, but also a spirit. That is why you can communicate with God, who is the Spirit.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Surrender to the presence of God around you. Remain in that presence for at least five minutes.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Then think that you are on earth to decide for Love, Goodness, Justice – for God. Now, seriously opt for GOOD or for EVIL. \u00a0There is only One who is good. Resist evil.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

If you feel some resistance, call on Jesus to help you choose a new world \u2013 his world:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
