“Quote from the Hobbit movie, not found in the books of Tolkien, but in the spirit of the author.”
Clergy Coaching Network

COMMENT1: So we have run out of Apostles and Prophets to quote from?  Are we really going to quote from a fictional character in a movie based in mysticism.  This is wrong on every level.  Our small acts of kindness make us as gods?  Be careful!

REPLY1: Mysticism?  Really?  Where did you get that?
REPLY2: Wow folks.  There is precious little in that quote to quibble over.
REPLY3: Please, explain to us exactly how this is wrong on every level.
REPLY4: Please be careful of letting people take credit for holding back evil. The Word tells us that the only thing holding back the anti-christ is the Holy Spirit.  We may be obedient in doing these ordinary kindnesses, but this by no means means we are responsible for holding back evil.
REPLY5: So uplifting and inspiring quotes can’t be from works of fiction???
REPLY6: A little Consideration, a little Thought for Others, makes all the difference. Winnie the Pooh
REPLY7: Please lighten up.  The words were written by a real person who believes there is good and evil in the world.  Didn’t Jesus use parables to impart lessons and wisdom?

COMMENT2: This is why the home is so important!  Moms and dads are the mightiest warriors!!
COMMENT3: I love this quote.
COMMENT4: Love!
COMMENT5: Amen

I have found the question a small part of relationship.
I have found my reaction-response to be the bigger.
I can always ask why the question –
Yet nothing undoes trashing you for asking.

I have found the label a small part of relationship.
I have found my label-response to be the bigger.
I can always remove the label –
Yet nothing undoes making it about labels.

I have found it about obedience, conditions and correctness.
I have found it my fitting-in, service, and sacrifice .
I have found I can switch that on and off –
I have found nothing undoes me more than that.

.

I was told about the process of change.
Unconscious incompetence – the being of I Am
Conscious incompetence – the being of I Won’t
Conscious competence – the being of I Will
Unconscious competence – the being of I Am

.

No one taught me God was necessary in any of that.

.

I was taught love-with-condition to be Love.
I found that to be unconscious incompetence.
I desired to love-without-condition and become I won’t
I glimpsed more unconditioning-Love and become I will.
I become Love
And become unconscious competence.

And – oddly to a lot of believers and unbelievers –

Without any God required

And – oddly to a lot of believers and unbelievers –

That is I Am
The Whole thing.
Everything.
In three letters.

The End.

And – oddly to a lot of believers and unbelievers …

The Beginning

.

Where I Am
Right now
In every moment
