Have you ever heard a throng of hundreds or even thousands singing the same song \u2014 no, not mumbling an anthem on cue, but spontaneously serenading the universe with some newer tune.

That\u2019s when I hear \u2014 really hear \u2014 the song\u2019s words; feel in my own knotted throat the soaring spirit of the singers; and sense the ineffable essence of the iSoul as it enjoins my every thought.

That same power holds together our expanding universe and, for that matter, was what wound it into wheels of celestial bodies at the start. \u201cTo be or not to be\u201d is neither a question nor a choice.

Fear THAT force and beware that this spirit is within us and without us. Know that it inhabits the hearts and minds of billions and billions, and it guides bodies of believers and unbelievers alike.

It\u2019s stronger than any government, mightier than any alliance; and it transcends all generations. Like Indiana Jones\u2019s enemies, an ideology that harnesses that power can appear unstoppable.

The greatest army on earth is no match for the iSoul\u2019s strength. Tanks, fighter planes, bombers and battleships cannot defeat this wholly universal spirit that exists within every single one of us.

So I wait to hear the iSoul\u2019s song and to see which way the winds of war blow and the waters of life and renewal flow. I give thanks; I beg for pardon; I ask for mercy; and I hope for deliverance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
