Irene Spencer

“It was made known to me that I didn’t have to try and do or be anything. I simply needed to be still. I know the experience came about because I surrendered. When I quit trying to control my life and mind, it was made known to me that God is the doer. It’s our strong sense of self that brings about our delusions and pain. By surrendering, we tell God, ‘Not my will, Lord, but thy will be done.’ The essence revealed to me that everything was on time and okay exactly as it was.”
