Hi Cass,
I think that we're the only two people here, but someday that will
change.
Thanks for the verse:

> Psalm 37:4
> Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart.

I found that psalm, it is very beautiful. It also has: "the meek shall
inherit the earth".
Every morning I work for a bit on my own thoughts. I'm focusing
more on what I care about, and what God cares about, as far as I know.
I'm rewriting my priorities regarding that at:
http://www.ms.lt/ms/staff/forgod.html
I'm half way through Natalie's questionnaire "What do you really
care about?" http://www.ms.lt/ms/projects/tooluses/010121care.html My
first two answers are:

> What do I really want to do and to be in the short term and the long term?
>
> I want to be a "truth engager".
> I would like every will to engage the truth.
> In the short term, I would like my own will to engage the truth.
> I would like the truth to be just outside the mind of every will.
>
> What do I really care about?
>
> I care about "loving".
> I wish to love more than I can think.
> I wish to open every channel of my will, so all love could flow through.
> I wish love to overflow the banks of my will, rather than flow around them.
> I wish to know the structure of my will that I may open it entirely.

What do these two mean, with regard to the objectives of our
laboratory? I'm writing about that.

I think that "engaging truth" has to do with embracing God, caring about
my relationship with God. I want to "make all truth available". Those
are the terms under which I feel that I can relate to God, and we all
can. I could be wrong, but I think that the Truth is the way by which
we can get to God. Or perhaps, as Christ says, the Truth AND the Life,
which is the Way, which is Christ. I suppose this means that he's not
the Truth, he's the Truth AND the Life, what it takes for life to yield
truth. Anyways, I think that "engaging truth" isn't caring about God
directly, it's just caring about our relationship with him. So that's
something to discuss in EmbracingGod@yahoogroups.com

I think that "loving more than I can think" has to do with loving God,
directly caring about God. The only way that I can "love more than I
can think" is if God loves through me. I wish this to be, so I should
structure myself accordingly. So that's something to discuss here.

I had a thought on the mind of God. I think our minds are smartest when
we slow them down, because when we can see the many directions that our
thoughts might take us. That suggests that God's mind is completely
stopped. He's open to all the directions his thoughts are free to
wander away in. He brings them all together.

I highly recommend Natalie's questionnaire.

Yours,
Andrius
