SELF-CONDEMNATION KEEPS US BACK
People who are honestly trying to follow the spiritual life often make the mistake of being too hard on themselves. Because they do not seem to be progressing as fast as they would naturally like, or because they find themselves repeating some old fault that they thought they had completely overcome, they feel discouraged, and condemn themselves mercilessly.
All this is foolish. If you are doing your best to use what Truth you know, at present, you are doing all that you have a right to expect of yourself.
Don't be impatient with yourself-but this does not mean that you are to be lazy or complacent. Handle yourself as a wise parent handles an obstreperous child-kindly, patiently, but with gentle firmness, not expecting too much too quickly, but foreseeing inevitable growth and improvement. (Emmet Fox)

THE GOD GAMES: Legend of Kor...Chapter One
Tzvi placed one orange foot in front of the other and advanced slowly in the line to the buckets. The buckets were overflowing and the stench of the bodily fluids was atrocious. He could feel his bowels full of hot liquid and dreaded that he may lose control of them before reaching the buckets. Tzvi knew he had dysentery but his kind of people were not treated medically in the camp. He knew he could get no help. A crust of bread and some watery cabbage soup were all he had eaten in two days. Tzvi knew death was inevitable, either through malnutrition and dysentery, or by taking a wrong step and just being shot by the guards who watched their every move. He could not believe that a man like Gog could exist. Who ever heard of killing a person just because of the color of their skin and their different culture! Surely Gog would be judged by God and they would all be saved; he prayed that God would spare his people, but in his heart Tzvi knew the secret of the dark buildings that belched an evil smoke. The line to the buckets moved slowly. Shots rang out. Tzvi and 50 other Walean men lay in pools of blood on the path to the buckets.

ONE (God) cradled Tzvi and his brethren in His energy. All pains immediately ceased to exist and joy returned and blossomed anew. Heaven, home, oh the joy!
Tzvi stretched, and felt the freedom of his energy form. Suddenly it all came rushing back to him. The game, the purpose for his life on Kor, flooded his mind.
ONE created the Cosmos and all within it from his own energy. He was pleased with all of his creations but felt a tug of loneliness, and soon found himself bored because he could neither share His creations, nor experience them, on His own. In lieu of this He created energy forms (people's spirits) and then created the God Games which entailed sending His energy forms into newly created worlds to play life games, and to experience much in their life games.
A life game is a life time on any planet in the Cosmos. The purpose of a life game is to exercise your free will and freedom of choice while following the paths that you created in heaven before being born. All energy forms in the entire Cosmos go through the process of choosing the parameters of their next life game, in Heaven, before they are born, and their life games are Hell on any planet energy forms choose to live on. After death on your planet of choice, you return to Heaven again and find out if you have won your game or not. If you do not win your life game, you must go through another life game, and continue doing this until you win your game. The people of Kor had no idea that they were playing life games. They did not know that ONE had once been bored and had created life games to ease his boredom and loneliness and so that He could also experience His creation through the life games that His energy forms play. ONE thus experiences all of His creations. ONE was no longer bored.
As ONE gathered Tzvi and his brothers in His arms of love, He told them that they could rejoice as they had won their life games and would remain with Him forever. ONE saw into the sadness of their hearts, as they ached for the loved ones left behind in the camps and in Wale, and promised them that He would answer their prayer and free their loved ones from the tyranny of Gog. Tzvi and his brethren were comforted, and told ONE of their profound love and gratitude. Then they practiced flying, and thought-travel (once you are an energy form again, you are pure energy and can travel at the speed of light).
Tomorrow we are introduced to Ann, an Energynaut, and a description of the space ship and her capabilities...
