The content of this book will soothe you, change you, and move you to realms of thinking beyond this world. When feelings of ineptitude and inadequacy invade our minds, looking for a home within the walls of our souls, it is indeed time for a gentle reminder of the immense Divine power we hold. Welcome to your reminder: Courageous Souls brought to you by author Robert Schwartz.
In a well organized format, the author presents a handful of courageous souls and their stories. He writes of their lives before and after life altering challenges transformed their world. He then proceeds to interview chosen mediums and channels, offering questions regarding the soul’s pre-birth plan for growth and relationship dynamics within the soul group. The answers are profound and seem to offer the subjects great comfort and wisdom.
Schwartz discusses pre-birth planning and why we choose to incarnate on this Earth plane to have specific experiences. “…by creating yourself in a new place, you now know yourself—truly know yourself—in a way that was not possible had you never left Home.” Whether we are “balancing karma” or want to experience ourselves in a different way, the incarnations make growth possible, opening up realms of possibilities. The author acknowledges our free will and states that our souls can always change the plan or drop it altogether. How we deal with the challenges of life is indeed where the growth is. Do we look for the lesson and push toward growth or do we respond in anger and allow fear to rule our lives in the moment? “When we remember who we really are, our inner light, our love, shines forth for all to see. That, I believe, is why we are here.”
Courageous Souls addresses the use of physical illness, parenting handicapped children, deafness, blindness, drug addiction, alcoholism, death of loved ones, and major accidents in pre-birth life plans. The author writes with obvious admiration of the courageous people he profiles and offers each a great opportunity to tell their story, ultimately helping to find the answers they were seeking.
This book is a warm and comforting resource that lends assistance to the reader on their journey. Schwartz is indeed fulfilling his plan as he offers encouragement and a perspective that provides greater understanding of why we are here. “To see only light is to see only Divinity in each person who walks the Earth. It is then we remember who we really are.”
