Sinopsis

The source from which a universe proceeds is a manifested Divine Being, to whom in the modern form of the Ancient Wisdom the name LOGOS, or Word has been given. The name is drawn from Greek Philosophy, but perfectly expresses the ancient idea, the Word which emerges from the Silence, the Voice, the Sound, by which the worlds come into being. We  must now trace the evolution of spirit-matter, in order that we may understand something of the nature of the materials with which we have to deal on the physical plane, or physical world. For it is in the potentialities wrapped up, involved, in the spirit-matter of the physical world that lies the possibility of evolution. The whole process is an unfolding, self-moved from within and aided by intelligent beings without, who can retard or quicken evolution, but cannot transcend the capacities inherent in the materials. Some idea of these earliest stages of the world’s “becoming” is therefore necessary, although any attempt to go into minute details would carry us far beyond the limits of such an elementary treatise as the present. A very cursory sketch must suffice.   

Coming forth from the depths of the One Existence, from the ONE beyond all thought and all speech, a LOGOS, by imposing on Himself a limit, circumscribing voluntarily the range of His own Being, becomes  the manifested God, and tracing the limiting sphere of His activity thus outlines the area of His universe. Within that sphere the universe is born, is evolved, and dies ; it lives, it moves, it has its being in Him ; its matter is His emanation ; its forces and energies are currents of His Life ; He is immanent in every atom, all-pervading, all-sustaining, all-evolving ; He is its source and its end, its cause and its object, its centre and circumference ; it is built on Him as its sure foundation, it breathes in Him as its encircling space ; He is in everything and everything in Him. Thus have the sages of the Ancient Wisdom taught us of the beginning of  the manifested worlds.

Kimmy jumps at the chance to bring her furry family member home. 
    Unfortunately, Aunt Skylar’s idea of a road trip isn’t the rescue mission Kimmy had in mind.

    Life can be like a battlefield—with courses that test you at each phase, including your faith and will to keep going. But one must stay hopeful during those tough times—the kind of hope that says, "You're not alone, and you're stronger than you think." Robin Group shares a similar subjective journey of overpowering difficulty in this book, "Rise Above the Flames," from financial ruin to personal redemption. The description underlines the struggles of raising a family in an environment of crushing trouble—losing a home, combating financial crises, and resisting keeping a family together. Each chapter demonstrates the abysms of distress and the potency mandated to rise again. Fundamentally, the book offers practical insights, tools, and lessons retained along the way. Through faith, steadiness, and an obstinate belief in better days, this book acts as both a stimulation and a guide to stability.
