From Darkness Into Light

by Rev. Annie Arbona

I took a trip to a metaphysical book store in my area. I was hoping to find a specific book I was quite excited about. As I drove there, I was enjoying my sense of expectation and the fact that it was a very beautiful day. When I arrived at the store, I perceived it to be very noisy, and immediately made a judgement about the fact. From that moment on and for the whole time I was there I kept choosing to judge over and over again. I judged the people who worked there, those who were buying, and all that was going on. My mind became inundated with ego opinions and I started feeling very uncomfortable.

I didn’t find the book, and by the time I got home the uncomfortable feelings had escalated to pure misery and strong physical symptoms. Also a sense of dense sadness came over me. I felt so bad and so separated that all I could do was to be with the experience and ask for help. I was experiencing the hell that I had miscreated when I chose my ego judgmental thoughts. I could not get over how much darkness and pain I had dipped into. It was very frightening, but with Spirit I was able to look at this direct experience of separation for what it really was, a fabricated illusion.

My call for help was answered immediately. The Great Counselor made Himself felt ever so gently in my heart. It brought tears to my eyes to feel His Love, Peace, and Understanding. I felt softly and ever so gently brought back to my sanity. I knew I had been saved. A great window of pure Awareness opened for me that day. I became so very awake to the fact that we are always making a choice between Heaven and hell, and that the fall into dark judgmental thoughts can be a hard one.

The gifts from Spirit didn’t end there. That night after I retired, I experienced the deepest sense of Oneness I had ever felt. Spirit showed me in a vision of pure light how everyone I had ever known or come in contact with in my entire lifetime, lived in my heart and were one with me. I felt perfect oneness with everyone and everything. Spirit took me by the hand into Heaven and offered me the maximum lesson I could have received. The tremendous contrast between the hell I had chosen and the Heaven I was experiencing with the help of Spirit, was the culmination of a great lesson. My heart was overflowing with Joy, deep Peace, and a huge sense of Gratitude.
