As we become purer channels for God's light, we develop an appetite for the sweetness that is possible in this world. A miracle worker is not geared toward fighting the world that is, but toward creating the world that could be.
When you turn your life over to God, you don't give up the drama; you give up the cheap drama.
You get enough people agreeing in consciousness that Mexico is a dangerous place, and that dangerous thought will make it so.
