Hear the Truth

The time of Jesus that is lost, or not recorded in the Bible, was His time of growth, His time of Self /God realization. To the world He seemed not one to take much notice of, for He was not a physical manifester. He was not intent on being caught up in the world. His focus, His desire was finding and manifesting Me perfectly. Thus so, He was lost to the world.

The Divine flow
The great flow of Life
By Life Itself
Flowing forth
Freely
Abundantly
From the everlasting
Fount of Life within
Know Me
Know Life
God says
Become Wholly Conscious
Let My Love
Flow through you
This is the work
You are to do
Be the pipeline
Allow My Lifeline
To reach the world
At large.


Excerpted from the book
Listen Hear, A Divine Love Story
by Debra Clemente
Christ is Divine Love in action, God’s love in being and truth. Jesus found and recognized this love through the Father whom He knew and spoke to in the silence. Through the power of this love He became the Christ. Jesus Christ told us that all He could do, so could we if we followed His way, as His way, His life, was the way to the Truth, the Truth of God.

Jesus found and claimed this saving and transforming Love of God. The love of Christ is Divine Love which God is ready to give each repentant heart.  A repentant heart is an open heart, willing heart. A heart willing to forgo the will of the body’s ego mind and to be so in filled with God’s Love that one’s very will is transformed by this Love into the will of God.

Before Christ left his physical form on this earth, He assured us he would send “the Comforter” to care for us and lead us on the path to righteousness. For this, we have to ask believing. The words, the exact words, are not of such a matter as the intention, the intention of the heart. Your heart has to yearn for this knowing. Yearn with all your heart. Some may ask to know Jesus. Some may ask for Divine Love. Some may ask to know God. Some may ask to be shown the Light. All who ask, ask in faith, shall find. Find the Father’s Love in Christ within themselves.

Comfort for the Ardent Seeker

2/5/2014

The more ideas I expose myself to, the more questions I have. Just like a child, I ask “Why?” I wonder.

When you were dissatisfied with the life you knew, you sought Me. You sought more to life, and I am the more to life. Living through Me you are finding joy abundantly. Physically you are in the same place, yet spiritually the ladder you have climbed. You cannot be unhappy with Me, for you have found true joy in My life, in the breast of My loving heart.

Don’t keep these words under lock and key. Keep them where they can be found by the ardent seeker. For just as you have found wisdom and comfort in the words of Mine written by the hand of others, many others will find great value in these words you write. They will bring comfort to seeking hearts for generations upon generations. Do not take this work lightly.

Look Within

I am a drop of water in the ocean of life. A part of the whole, there is no separation. We are all One.

It’s easier to imagine Oneness with the analogy of being a drop of water in the ocean of life for you have touched and thus understood the physical form of the ocean. The body of Spirit, Spirit as One and you as an inseparable part of this, is a notion that escapes your mind. That is alright for your heart has this understanding. When you follow your heart and not your mind, you will always find your way home.

Give no mind to what you do not want for yourself or any other. Separate yourself. Raise your consciousness above the matters of matter. Here you will find peace for you, which is a peace so strong and lovely that it has the power to give peace to the all. When you recognize the ego you are giving credence to the idea of your separateness. When you deny the ego you are able to recognize the wholeness of life in Spirit and feel a part of such.

We know the power matter holds. It is full of energy, a force very strong. It bombards your senses. It says look here see what is wrong. And then it says look over here gain this, buy this and feel better, feel good. But no one tells you the good feeling is just for a moment for your eyes are so weak they can not stay centered on good, even if it is true good for only but a moment.

This is why we tell you to shut your physical eyes to the world and look within for strength and beauty. Here you will find peace and tranquility. Here lies God, your God connection to all. The more you can stay centered in this knowing, the more you will be God showing to all in the outer, for when the inner and the outer are the same you are whole and reside in Heaven.

The Message

Did you get the message? The message intended about the cross we are to bear? As my understanding of this concept has changed for the betterment of my own life, I wish to share it; my enlightenment with you.

Jesus Christ did not tell us we were to live lives of trials and tribulations as we followed him. Indeed he only spoke of peace and fulfillment, bountiful blessings and healing of body and mind. It is when we depend on ourselves and our humanness, our own ego-selves, that our load seems hard. We drag through life as the weight of our physical-ness pulls us down.

Beyond the weight of our own bodies and our health conditions we have our minds. Our minds weigh heavy, heavy upon our hearts. And then there is the physical world of our creation. Things we have wanted and brought into our lives that as we claim them they become our responsibility to tend to and carry with us as we move through life. It seems the more life we live the more things we have accumulated but not necessarily still need or may have perhaps ever needed and yet of course we continue to gather in more goods. But are these things truly making our lives good?

“Set down your burdens,” says Christ. “Let Me carry them for you.” How do we do this? By realizing that we cannot do it all ourselves. The Message of Christ is that we no longer have to. Right here, we can know joy. Right now, not later.

No need to wait until death, for Heaven, the Kingdom of God is present in your very midst. But you cannot see, so you do not know. You have to let go. Let go of your self-ness, the ego that has driven your course. The path you have been upon is rocky. The path Christ offers is smooth. “What is this path and where does one get on? Is it Jesus I am to follow? But how, he is gone? I shall wait for his return. I am told it could be any minute,” you say.

Jesus lived “The Life,” the Life of Christ, the Christos, the man Divine. This is the new plan offered by God, the ability to live as Christ Jesus did, to show up in the world as Light and Love. The Christ Jesus died in his physical body but was renewed, reincarnated in His true spiritual form and still lives. He lives on as Spirit, with all Spirit, God. Before Jesus left His physical self He comforted his disciples who were overwhelmed by the idea of His passing and their own ability to carry on. This is when He told them of the gifts to be bestowed on them, gifts of spirit, the Holy Spirit. He said He would send “the Comforter.”

I will comfort you

12/7/2013

Here I am Lord. It is I Lord. I have heard You calling in the night. I feel weak and scared.

Stay with Me. I will comfort you. I will fill you with My love. You are fine. You are well. You are safe. You are loved. What else can you possibly need or want? You have it all My dear; it is up to you to recognize this. One and all must know for themselves My truth. The truth of the matter is that “matter,” matters not. It can be gone in a flash with a wind or a flood, washed away, shed, dropped, gone. This will happen to you again and again in the physical realm you inhabit. You will be shaken to your core. What is left? That’s up to you. It’s My wish for all that each be so filled with Love that the exit of the material takes nothing from you, that you feel no real loss, that you become extremely aware of what you do have and who you are. This is your essence. What it is, is who you are and what you will be in the nonphysical. As you know, you will show. See things perfectly. Clear your mind. Find the time to see Me in you.
