And the planet needs changing now, in important ways, more than it has in a very long time. In fact, if those changes don\u2019t take place now, in the nearness of our short-term future, our long-term future may not be assured.<\/p>\n<p>I am sure that I do not have to tell you that life as we once knew it no longer \u201cis\u201d on our earth. And life as we <i>will <\/i>know it \u201cis\u201d not yet.\u00a0 So we are living the In Between Time\u2014what social scientist Jean Houston calls \u201cthe time of the parenthesis.\u201d We are no longer one thing, and we are not yet the other.<\/p>\n<p>This is the most wonderful and exciting time to be alive, because this is time Time of Pure Creation. There is no other time like it, and such a time comes along only once every several hundred years. In fact, it would be argued without much refutation that the kinds of changes we are going through now come along only once every several <i>thousand <\/i>years. And, to be totally accurate, we have <i>never <\/i>had a time like this on the earth\u2014because the changes we are now about to make <i>could not have been made before.<\/i><\/p>\n<p><b>We are entering not only a new era, but a new experience\u2014one never before known by our species. This is the Time of the Enlightenment.\u00a0 There are glories awaiting. Glories we could not even have dreamt of just a few decades ago.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Those who come after us will live these changes\u2014but we will <i>create<\/i> them! And THAT is the wonder of this moment. For this moment holds for us the chance to experience ourselves as few humans have ever experienced themselves across the span of Time.<\/p>\n<p>We are going to experience ourselves as the Changers and the Changed. Indeed, we are doing so right now. And so the question before us now is not, will there be massive change? The question is, what will be the nature of that change? And\u2026.what role will you play in creating it?<\/p>\n<p><i>\u00a0<\/i>Now, as exciting as all this is, there\u2019s one condition; there\u2019s one catch:<\/p>\n<p><i>You\u2019ve got to decide now.<\/i><\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Preview the new CWG book What God Said now at www.WhatGodSaidbook.com.\u00a0 Released Oct. 1, this book explores and expands on the 25 most important messages of the 9-installment Conversations with God series and offers practical suggestions on how to apply each message in every day life.
