Sometimes We just want to thump you on the head!

11/25/2013

What is it with you people? If something doesn’t materialize immediately you think you have failed. This is why We tell you to have faith. Believe in what you want to happen. Believe it is coming. Believe it is on its way. Every time you doubt, it puts what you want on hold.

Imagine every wish of yours as a work order. You of conceive something you want. And you believe and that is, submitting a work order to the unseen, (your behind the scene team). So as long as you hold your belief, We work on orchestrating all to make your desires materialize for you. The stronger your faith, the higher a work priority it is for us. When doubt enters your mind, it’s like a whistle blows and all work on your “project” is halted. If you have changed your mind We have no reason or ability to proceed further. This is a team effort and you call the shots. We have no right, nor ability to interfere or act against your wishes.

We love it when you give us projects and let us help. We feed off of your energy. We can only make suggestions. It is up to you to choose and declare what you want, to put in the “work order.” This starts the process rolling. And when you doubt that it is coming, all energy is lost. It’s really like you pulled the plug on that project, so all We can do is twiddle Our thumbs.

Remember, you are the boss of you. But you don’t have to do this life all alone. Your family of friends, spiritual friends, is here to help and guide you. What you do is up to you. Ask and you shall receive Our help, but ask you must in full trust.

Sometimes We just want to thump you on the head. Sometimes We do.

Try as you may

11/14/2013

Those whom believe in despair, despair they shall find, professed holy men or not. The glad heart honors God. The Earth’s bounty is for all to claim and enjoy the fruits of. The objective of life on Earth is to recognize and enjoy the fruits of My Kingdom while as well enjoying the fruits and pleasures of the physical world I have created for you. Hiding and holing away to bar yourself from temptation is not living as I intended. You are to love yourself and others. How can you love your brother if you cannot look him in the eye?

I have seen your pain. I have seen your struggle. Try as you may to obey even the most devout of you have not found a way to live in the world and yet not be of it. I have seen this. I know this. That is why I made the new plan, gave you a new promise. I promised to comfort you and bring you wisdom, give you My strength to hold fast to My ways, to take away your sin by taking away your temptation, all while fully living with your two feet planted in your world. You have not understood what has been said, you have misinterpreted My promise. Yes, Christ was to return but not again in the form he once did.

It is you My child whom are to become Christ as well. With My gift this is possible, for the way is the same. Jesus, as Christ showed you. He told you that you could be as he and far greater works you could do. What I gave to him I offer as well to you My love, My Divine Love implanted into your hearts. You do not need to change who you are to become worthy of My love. My child I love you so much, you are already worthy. All I ask is that you ask continually for My love, for My will to become yours. You have to want Me more than life itself; more than the life you know. You have to want to know Me. Show Me this earnestness in your heart and I will give you My love and change your heart.

More than prinicple

11/14/2013

It is more than “principle,” for living by principle is living according to the Laws of God. Yes, you can do this if you wish. I mean you can try, but no human to date has been able to fully live God’s Law unto himself. God has seen this. He has watched our struggles. He has witnessed our fighting, our inner battles with temptation and power. God has seen it all and been displeased. Displeased and yet compassionate for He chose to offer a new deal unto man, a new promise He made. This is the New Covenant of God.

Firstly, I will tell you how you will know if you are in fact enjoying the fruits of this gift from God. Ask yourself this, do you have joy in your heart? Inner joy is part of God’s Promise. Gladdening of hearts is guaranteed. This is not a joy to be postponed for a later date but joy today as you walk the earth.

Do you have wisdom? I am not asking whether or not you are book smart, but do you have wisdom untold? “Wisdom untold” is wisdom that comes to you directly not by written word, mouth or experience. God’s New Covenant promises “wisdom untold.”

Do you struggle with sin? Do you struggle to keep the Commandments of God? Is it hard to love all others as God loves all? Does doing God’s will in any situation come naturally or is it something hard, which you have to think about to do? The promise God foretold to biblical prophets was a life of joy, wisdom and abundance.

No one else has to believe

11/12/2013

Do not be disturbed by the words of another they know not My love, although it is as fully present for them as it is for you. Hold the Light. You are My sunshine My darling.

Thank you Lord for caring, caring for me. I see you in Eternity. Amen.

All is well
All is well
All is well
Listen to what I say
Listen for the good
Look for the good
It is there
To be found
Though sometimes
You have to be a hound.

What would make you happy darlings? You want the
world to be perfect.

No one else
Has to believe
In you
Just you
I already do.

Come to Me
When you are weary
When you are teary
When you just cannot go on
As you have gone on.

You are perfect as you are, as you are now, as you come to Me, as you seek Me and My Goodness. You are reaching for and grabbing hold of the Love I have for you which brings you further Perfection, further Wholeness, Holiness if you may say. But do not feel My darling that you have to be this All before you can proclaim in My Name. Do not wait until your head is even with your heart. Now is the time to share what you have been shown. In this way, others may rise unto the Light along side you.

Do you ever just write down the things that come to your brain? I do. It’s my stream of consciousness, a river flowing clear water with some varied turbulence. It amazes me, now that I am seeing it. In spite of me, a book has been written this year, a spiritual primer. All in my hand. All out of my heart, without the involvement of my head. Yes, I was the medium, just as the pen and paper were. I am a tool for God’s good. I stand amazed. It is good that I wasn’t too aware, as my mind could not or did not edit.

It is written!

A way to see

11/12/2013

What is a religion?

It’s a spiritual practice. It is not something for you to hold up in another’s face. But instead a path, a practice which you are to do, to practice, to experience, as a way to see the face of and come to know God. Let it be a time of growth.

There is such a story

11/12/2013

What if there was a story where the main character saw life without trouble, and who didn’t get caught up in and add to the drama around him?

There is such a story,
the story of Jesus of Nazareth.

Come to the Altar

11/12/2013

There are a lot of people walking around with teeny bits of God’s love but they haven’t opened the gateway of their heart for the in-flooding. You have felt and known God’s love within your own heart before this time of knowing. There have been times you have been moved to tears. Your emotions overcome by the power of this love. You have felt it and then you haven’t. It seems to you as if God walked away, but it is not so. Your attention walked away.

The gift of God’s Divine Love unto man is not a one-time thing. Such a powerful substance it is that man can only assimilate it into his being as if in a slow drip, as if your body was attached to an IV line from God’s very blood to yours. To keep the flow of this “Life Blood” your attention has to remain on your desire. Such as is the law for all you are able to receive. God cannot and will not force feed you His love. You must come to the alter, willingly and on bended knee, humbling your own egoic ways and succumbing your will unto His. This is the way of receiving this almighty gift of Divine Love. So you see, many have been touched by God’s love, but few have been wholly transformed. And fewer yet understand the matter and cause of such a change as fully as is now described to you.

They will resonate

Peaceful Pasture, oil painting by Debra Clemente

It’s not even about you, so don’t take it so personally when another is so rude. It’s nice to receive an apology but don’t think for a minute that anyone owes you an apology for their actions. For when you do, you are deciding that your happiness or your peace of mind is attached to the actions of another. You are taking away your own power, the very power you hold within yourself to determine your own happiness level as you wish, regardless of any action or lack of action by any other.

Entering into the state of Grace, Zen, or the Flow, for you it was your painting that took you there, for another it is their daily run. Others find this awareness of the peaceful center of their being as they sit cross legged on the floor and give attention to their breath. All very valid paths to the same state of knowing and bliss that is always available unto each.

You, mankind, walk in darkness, barely seeing the Truth which shines ever so brightly by the light of day. You gather and form a line playing “Follow the Leader” not knowing that the leader is as blinded as yourself, as he as well is clothed in darkness. Stories are made up and told and retold explaining the whys and wheres of things that go bump in the night. Yes, you remain blinded by the darkness which surrounds you not realizing your own power. The power you were born possessing to open your own eyes unto the light chasing away the perceived darkness and revealing the continued blindness of the leader you once followed. Lo, is the one blessed with ears to hear this and eyes to see the light.

Your ego wishes another man to agree with what you know. Your ego wishes another person to validate what is coming to you. Please come to the place of knowing that all is well and right and you need not the validation of any other to own this Truth. Once you get rid of that need, what you would like, will come to you. This is so because when you perceive anything as a need, you are perceiving lack of what you desire. Thus you are not putting out the proper receiving energy unto the world. Believe that which you desire is available unto you although your physical eyes and ears have not yet witnessed. This is the process of allowing.

Believe unto me this, this is important work you are doing and there are ears that need to hear these words as you write them, for they will resonate in the core of their own being and be further confirmation of their own truth.

Who says?

11/12/2013

Personality is a human physical trait. As “One” we are not limited by nor identify with personality. Personality is part of man’s “ego consciousness” which keeps him small. It’s not about personality anymore. Your mind is attempting to define this voice as one or another personality or individuality, as you understand how souls appear to you in your earth form. It is not this way, not for us, not for you, not now, before or ever. It is only your limited consciousness that perceives it so. Please don’t bother too much with your attempts to comprehend or fathom the greatness of this concept. All you need to know is that “all is One and all is Love.”

You know both in your heart and mind that these messages are messages of pure love. The same love which Paul spoke about. This voice never judges or condemns but is patient, comforting and encouraging. Love knows all. Love conquers all. God is Love. This is what you are to know.

You have to discover your own power. You have to lay claim to the Kingdom within. It is all within the power of your word, in thought, spoken and in deed.

Buddhism is about mastering the mind. While there is much to be said for that as an effort to becoming the perfection of man, we are offering you more, a way to get beyond the mind which knows all it knows so well. We ask you to forget all you know and be born again unto Truth. If you can learn to work, live and breath just through, only through, the mind of God, that’s when you’ve “got it going on!”

Whenever you go past the point you thought you couldn’t go, that is when you have reached the next level. You have to venture beyond your comfort zone for growth to appear. You have to push yourself to this new limit. It’s a personal challenge, whether mentally, physically or spiritually. You do yourself no good by measuring your rate of growth against any other.

All have access to the same gifts. All good arises from the same Source. All power is One and One for all. The only difference lies in individual man’s level of consciousness and awareness of such power and aptitude gained by the exercise of such. Jesus, as Christ, told us “What ever I do, so may you.”

Some say they talk to dead people but that is an improbability. It is impossible, for if anything is truly dead there is no life with which to communicate. Communication is a back and forth thing. It should be better stated that some are aware of communication with Spirit and the souls of the bodily departed. That is not the same as “dead people.”

A soul inhabits a body for a time for an earthly experience as an opportunity for soul growth, or advancement in the Heavenly Planes, by seeking soul purification and enlightenment. When the body is spent or damaged so that it can no longer support the life force, the soul energy escapes the imprisonment of the physical confines it has known. There is no skip, pause or lapse from one moment of knowing in the body to the next moment that the soul realizes its freedom. There is no change whatsoever in the attributes of a soul just because it is no longer present in a physical form.

You were a soul before this body and you will continue as that same soul after you depart. The only thing you depart from is your physical form. You remain present, actually more present than when in the physical form. As you have not the physical senses, nor local brain activity, to distract you, you are Pure Being. You exist in the Ethers, as Heaven was first described.

You reside in a state of continual joy, but happy as you are to just to be you are aware that other souls enjoy more joy and reside in a brighter light space. You long for this “more joy” and learn that the way to this more joy is through the infilling of your soul with God’s Divine Love. All souls can receive this gift as they ask for it with all the energy their soul possesses, but the most soul growth opportunity is when a soul is with a physical body and is having a human experience.

What are you looking for? What’s wrong or what is right? There are basically two ways to go through life; you can either look for what’s wrong or what’s right. Seek and ye shall find. Be careful what you look for, for what you think about you bring about.

People always ask, “Who says?” They are looking for an “authority figure.” Someone else they believe holds all the answers. They search on for a supreme authority, one whose truth never varies.

Have presence of Mind

11/12/2013

“Daily Word,” I get a direct deposit of the daily word of God. I stilled the mindless chatter of my mind and the Small Still voice speaks unto me continually. As the static of the world has been eliminated from my mind the volume of the voice has risen and my reception of the message is so much clearer. It had to circumvent my mind! This is clear as a bell.

Why would you want to constantly reread the doom and gloom papers? The only way you can help the world is to hold your energy high with good thoughts. Think on Me. Think of My love. Become My love for the world.

Everyone works with a higher power whether they recognize it or not. Names are not important. Labels do no good. They get in the way and clutter the channel. Stories are written, further confusing the clear reception of this life channel. Do you think God only speaks to people when bushes burn? You think too much! You have to believe in more than you know, to know more than you think.

I believe in the magic of possibility. When it is given to me, I do it. When I have an idea, I act on it.

Pay attention. Have presence of Mind. Uniting of desires, you have to allow Spirit to work through you. Your thinking mind has taken over. If you only believe and trust in what is in front of you, you will only know and believe in what is in front of you. Your experience will not change, just more of the same. This is called limiting belief.
