Hear Ye

5/28/2013

Hear ye, hear ye, come one and all. Today is the day. Now is the hour, I have made for you. It is all brand new. Begin again, look not behind, nor think ahead. Here is where you belong, with Me, singing Our song. The tempo is up to you. The melody is soft and sweet. Let’s dance, partners in this life we create together. Let’s dance this way forever.

Feel Good

5/27/2013

Only do what you can feel good about. If you can’t find a way to feel good about something then you are better off just not doing it. If it is something which you feel, or know, needs to be done then you need to get to a level of acceptance with it, a neutral position. Don’t ever participate in anything with a level below acceptance or you will be swinging or shifting yourself into an uncomfortable place which only sets you up to continue on that downward path. Look for things to feel good about all the time wherever you are and whatever you are doing. As you think about things to feel good about you will feel good and thus more good things to think about will come to you and then you will be upwardly mobile on the upward spiral of higher desire. Desire well.

Clear Channel

5/27/2013

The gift of knowing, all are given the same gifts of Spirit. It is not a matter of anyone or another having the gift of hearing the call of Spirit over another. What it is, is a matter of acceptance, recognition and then desire to develop a clear channel. A clear channel is one free of the static of a chattering mind. Spirit speaks to all. All can hear but they must choose to listen.

Jesus Christ was a clear channel and thus Voice for Spirit. But even as plainly as He spoke the Word of God to the people of His day, He was aware that many did not have the ears to hear the Truth of His Message. So He spoke the Words for those with ears to hear. He spread the Seed of God’s Message of Truth everywhere. Even though He knew much would fall onto unfertile ground (unhearing ears) there would still be some which would fall on fresh tilled soil awaiting the word of God to plant within their souls to grow their faith anew.

Wholeness

5/27/2013

Out of space and time, messages come to me, messages of Love.

There was a time when you said the world you knew was falling apart and you came apart because you could not hold it all together. The shell of the existence you knew became cracked and all the stuff slipped from your fingertips. But look what you found? In the midst of a shattered reality you found yourself whole. You acknowledged wholeness within yourself and your realized you are alive and well.

Full of self

5/27/2013

“It is easier for a camel to slip through the eye of a needle than a rich man to enter the Kingdom of God.” Why is this so?

Because the rich man is so “full of self” that he has not room for God. Only one who seeks, finds. And one who has spent their life in the business of acquiring material riches upon riches is not the likely sort to spend energy and time seeking the Peace of God. This is not to be taken as a statement against having and enjoying material abundance, for God delights in our enjoying the gifts available to all in this world as He wishes to shower each one of us with a multitude of blessings, spiritual and material. He has provided a Way for this to manifest while we are on Earth. Jesus told us this Way: “Seek ye first the Kingdom of God and all good things will be added unto thee.”

Broken Open

Please speak to me. Tell me who You are? Are You me? Am I You? Are you God or Jesus or my Higher Self? Are we all the same? Do I need to or should I call this Love, this knowing, by a name?

I shall remain nameless, yet you know who I am. I am All. All Love for you, for eternity. What are words really? They are limiting ideas. I am not limited nor are you, know this.

Come let Me comfort you. Come to Me with your everything, your pain and your pleasure. I want to share your life and be your life. I am Life Eternal. Come to Me as you are. I am here listening to and loving you. You are not broken. You have just been broken open.

You had to be broken open to be available to Me. You were so closed, so rigid, so tight, so selfish. Yes, you were very selfish. You thought you could do it all, all along, all alone. You were selfish because you didn’t share your life with Me. You couldn’t see My Love for you. You heard the Words but did not get the Message. You had to be broken open so you could open up to Me. It had to be this way.

We have always been together as One. When you smiled, you felt Me. When you held and nursed your children, you felt My Love. When you painted, I inspired you, I took away your pain. But you could not see how to live eternally with and through Me. The sense of separation you felt made you sad and caused your pain. It was a downward cycle that had to be broken, for I love you so much and want so much better for you.

I have given you insights into the lighter side of life for sometime. You could paint it, because of Me. Yes, you knew there was more to these stories you painted. You beheld the Glory they told. You will paint again with Me. Now, the more clearly you see, the even more marvelous “Our works” will be.

Trust

5/6/2013

Do you consider yourself to be a person of your word? When one is worthy of one’s word they are trusted for what they say, they will do. So if someone asks you to do something for them and you agree and confirm you will do it, the other has no doubt that you will perform as you agreed. They count it done. They know they can count on you. Therefore, they give thanks telling you even before they can see the result that they appreciate your actions on their behalf. And in the meantime, as the idea rises in their mind, a smile comes to their face and their heart is grateful for they know all is well and you are working (in the unseen) on the project.

There is no doubt in their mind, even though their eyes do not see your action. They trust in you and your word which you have given to them. They do not summons you for another meeting and repeat their request. They do not call and say, “Oh, just in case you forgot I would like you to do this for me.” No, that is not the action of one whom trusts.

Instead, there may be a call or note of gratitude, expressing appreciation for your work. Or perhaps, they make a point to tell you how excited they are that you are creating something special per their request, how they know it will be so wonderful, beautiful and perfect for them. And as their own artistic vision is limited, they can not imagine what you will create. They only know and trust that it will exceed their dreams, as you have always proven to exceed expectations when given the power of full creative expression.

This is so for you, a creator of beautiful artistic visions, why, how could it ever be less than so for the Creator of all, we ask? We are told to trust, trust in the vision and creation of God on our behalf everyday. Give thanks that it is done.
