“We were taught to believe that the Great Spirit sees and hears
everything, and that He never forgets, that hereafter He will give every
man a spirit-home according to his deserts: If he has been a good man, he
will have a good home; if he has been a bad man, he will have a bad
home." Chief Joseph Nez Perce These were revolutionary and drastic proposals, but the moment
I fully accepted them, the effect was electric. There was a sense of
victory, followed by such a peace and serenity as I had
never known. There was utter confidence. I felt lifted up, as though
the great clean wind of a mountain top blew through and through. God
comes to most men gradually, but His impact on me was sudden and
profound. Big Book pg. 14 When, therefore, we were approached by those in whom the problem
had been solved, there was nothing left for us but to pick up the simple
kit of spiritual tools laid at our feet. We have found much of heaven and
we have been rocketed into a fourth dimension of existence of which we had
not even dreamed. Big Book pg. 25 We
were reborn. Big Book pg. 63 Great Spirit help us to see the home we
deserve. |
