Beliefs are how the ego insulates itself against the potentially threatening activity of the Spirit: they give it a handle to allow it to believe it is open to God.
Trust is how the heart truly opens the soul to the Spirit. It’s not about belief. At all.
Thanks, friend.
so true. i find this to be the case more and more everytime i consider it.
Agreed. Big Trust.
Ryan Sharp (Pressing on in the Dark) recently had a post on belief, too. Good read.
Ryans post was May 23rd I think:

and with all the trust and belief, we all still strive to label ourselves under certain beliefs to make us feel we are living a fulfilling life. I have no label for myself, I believe, but will not label myself. I will find true peace, yet not call it one thing under one certain belief.. if the world would work this way.
