The Mind Reasons Away Wisdom

1/25/2014

0 Comments

 
The voice of Love never hurts with its words. The voice of Love never hurts. Its words are kind and gentle reminders, patient reminders. The voice of Love is spoken to each individually. What each one needs to know from “the One” is available 24/7, from what we call Heaven.

Ask for what you need, then listen patiently. The information is pure. It’s when the mind gets involved that it gets garbled. Are you clear? What We say is clear enough for you to know what to do if you listen carefully with your heart, not mindfully, but heart-fully. In this way, you will truly hear what We say here today.

In this way, all along, We have been here with you. Did you know this was meant for you to see more clearly? Higher, better, unfettered knowledge, Wisdom from on high but not from the sky. So much closer. It’s personal. It’s within. Just for you. Now, let’s begin to see the world more clearly.

Am I Christian, Jew or Islam? There are no words for what I am. I am that I am, “Truth” for you and all. “God’s saving grace” for your heart and soul, a gift from angels who live on high in the Heavens of righteousness where I reside.

Rhapsody, this is the grand plan of God’s gift to us. The gift of His love delivered into our hearts as we ask, by the power of the Holy Spirit. So great a Love, Our Father has for us. Welcome Him in, into your heart, make room for the infilling of such tremendous Love. The Love that transforms the weak to strong, that gives wisdom all day long. Ask not once. Ask again and again for God to fill you up, to live within.

Bit by bit your being will change, never again to be the same. This is the “The Good News,” for all. It is so good that it is above the law, for when God’s Essence so fills your heart, there is no need for rules of morals or dogma to control the drama. Divine Love will rule your heart. If you do not feel this, if you do not know, you will not show. You will feel alone, for you are. But God is waiting at the edge of your heart. Today is the day, He says, let’s begin, let’s start.

These words are here to be found by the seeker, words written on the heart. No man may gift another with wisdom, for all wisdom comes from within from God our source. Man may share his wisdom with wisdom teachings, but true wisdom is only recognized by the heart, not the mind. The mind reasons away wisdom as it comes from afar. But the wisdom that is planted deep within is true for you. Your heart already knows. You must open your mind to your own truth, the truth that feeds and nourishes your very soul, this knowing. Where there is knowing, there is showing. It can be no other way. Nothing to buy, nothing to believe, just be with Me.

Oh yes, I’ve heard this voice before, but found it so easy to ignore. I gave it not the credence it deserved. I walked away alone in thought, believing life was hard and God forgot. “Turn right, turn left, pause up ahead.” This is what the information sounds like as I’m lead. I know more than I can say. But I can show all that I am.

Forgive them they know not what they do, for anyone who knows will show My Love.

It is not what you think. It is who you are, how you show up in or out of Love. We are of royal bloodline you and I because of our very nature, the nature of who we each are, sons and daughters of God, of the One whom is the One of us. Our inheritance is the very Kingdom of God, but it is up to each of us to know and thus to claim our birthright. Each of us is in our Father’s Will but until we claim “His Will” as ours we have no claim to our great inheritance.

Have no other God before Me. Be not a slave to money. Bend not your knee to pay homage to any other. You must love the Lord your God whom is I, your Father/Mother.

You have to empty your heart of any egoic claims before God can fill you when you call His Name. You do not have to live this life on your own. Ask for God to bring you home. Ask to be filled to the brim with God’s Love and Wisdom to be found within. Ask the Holy Spirit to visit you again and again.

Come follow Me and I will lead you home.


Like I know, there is no other for me to love. I ask here and now to be filled with Your Love. Fill me up I pray. Give me more of Your lovely Essence each day.

Make yourself available. Turn off your mind. Give your brain a rest. All I want is your love. Life is not a test of wills for you to make. You can go your way or go Mine. Live as human or as Divine. Your mind can guide you or it can be your heart which leads. If you choose your heart, we will “in essence” marry indeed.

So much to say. So much to know. Wisdom pours forth, as your heart is a glow with My Love. Burning a steady fire within, you have no chance to sin. For sin is error thinking and Love is not a thinking thing. I love you so this you know. This you show “the world outside,” what it’s like to have God inside.

Time and again, I have spoken to hearts ready to hear, to those who hold Me dear. The Words are not lost. They have been here all along. But how many truly hear My Word and know it is true and fully understand what to do?

It really is never about what anyone has done. For this, My Blessing to you, has already been done and is here now waiting for you to seek. For all that is spiritual is hidden from the mind. Logic has never been the way of The Divine.

Have presence of Mind

“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.

Plagiarism

6/23/2013

Plagiarism, that’s the only explanation the minds of men can come up with when another man expresses an idea as his own inspiration and the idea has been previously, documented somewhere else by another. It is thus assumed that one copied from another. Even the radical ideas and teachings of Jesus are attributed to other factions that some assume he must have studied with. These small minds are not yet aware of the “One Great Mind” to which all have access to. Ideas of Truth are always present and available here. This is “The Source,” the fountain of inspiration of all inspired thought. Inspired thought is that which rises in one’s own mind from seemingly “nowhere” as man cannot physically or mentally know this source.

Jesus spoke of this saying that the Kingdom of God, “His Wisdom,” was hidden from the intellect of man. This is why no amount of reasoning will convince any one of the truth of these words. Some people insisted that Jesus prove himself. They wanted Him to argue His points and defend His Message. But as He knew this knowledge was hidden from mens minds and intellectual reasoning, He did not bother. In fact, He thanked and praised God for the fact that God had so hidden and thus kept safe this “glorious wisdom” from fools disguised as scholars.

If we want to know and understand “Spiritual Truth,” we have to be a seeker. We have to have an open mind and heart. We have to desire a higher understanding. We have to let go of all preconceived ideas. We have to quiet the noise of our minds. We have to make a continual practice of this. We have to listen, listen to our own heart. Within each of us “Spiritual Truth” lives. First one has to know thyself and their innate worthiness to know higher.

Love Ministers

Not all can hear My Voice or have developed so to discern My Words. You are a channel of My Love, a conduit. When they ask tell them what they desire to know. In this way you serve and show My Love, a Gift given from the Highest Source above, Divine Love. Minister, do not preach. No one wants to be preached to. Love ministers. Preaching is an act of judgment. This you know, so can show.

If you tell something to another even if it is a teaching of extreme wisdom and it has not been specifically requested by them, for them from you, it will be discerned by them as an act of judgment. And so it is, as you would be judging them, so that you believed they needed that teaching.

Let it be, let all lay in wait, ready to be served as requested. This is the way all of My Knowledge works and is properly discerned. I do not force a single teaching upon you, none of you. It is all self service. You have to want and ask for yourself. ~ LISTEN HEAR

What if you knew?

2/3/2013

Some people say get out of your own way. There is more life to know and that we are hardly aware of the wonders life has to share. They say that each of us is in charge, of first ourselves then the world at large. That what we say and what we think makes our life happy or makes it stink. What if you knew this to be true? What then, I ask you, would you do? Would you say you didn’t care, once you were truly aware? Once you knew, would you, could you, live the same knowingly creating with only self to blame?

Divine Love Flow Through Me

9/6/2012

0 Comments

 
My mind used to be filled with pain and fear. Now it is filled with love and comfort.

See how far you have come. It is truly a delight. I delight in you. Delight in Me. Delight in Me in you. Oh yes, this is the way. It is and shall be. Walk with Me.


It was a whole new concept, the idea that I should fix me, not everyone else. Talk about a hard pill to swallow.

But swallow you did, not all at once for sure. You broke it up into little pieces and nibbled on it from time to time. Bitter booger wasn’t it? But see how sweet life tastes now? How you can enjoy the company of, actually delight in the company, of those who you had determined to fix if it killed you, and in fact it was.


My first decision was that I was going to learn mind control. I jokingly said that, knowing all the while that it was my own mind I wished to tame. As I explored and researched ways of doing this, new information continually came to light, very shocking and unsettling information which I didn’t just take as a truth and swallow whole. Again, I picked over each bone and investigated and tested the teachings.

Yes, you did. We were so proud of you. This is how it is supposed to be for when you did accept each concept new to you blind belief was not needed, for you knew their truth by your own testing and proving.

After having spent so many days of so many years in continual physical pain and limitation I was deeply offended to hear it said that it was of my own creation. That really pissed me off. It’s surprising now that I didn’t just slam that book shut and kick it down the stairs.

You were so curious. You were so wanting and desiring better for your life that you closed no door to possibility. This is what is needed by all an open mind. It is the mind that is “made up” that has no room to grow.


The thing that kept bugging me about the whole “law of attraction” thing was that the ideas that had until that point formed the foundation of my ideas of life, my understanding of what was and shall be were rocked, rocked back and forth. The ground beneath my feet no longer felt firm. If this was so, the law of attraction and all the tricks and tweaks to life as presented in The Secret, what was true of God and Jesus as I knew? How did all that fit in? I was not so easily swayed to believe that someone could replace the word “God” with “the Universe” or “Spirit” in a sentence and just move on.

It’s also true that prayer had lost its power and magic over me. I had continually turned to “the Church” for answers and comfort and left at a loss for all. My needs were not met. My answers were not coming. But God, or the idea I had always held of God, had a hold on me and said “Keep looking, seek and ye shall find.”  

One very important thing, actually I know it was the most important thing I have ever found, proclaimed and received is a Divine Love prayer titled, The Prayer Perfect. I found on the internet, happened upon, as it seemed while on this truth quest. The person that posted it challenged the reader to pray the prayer twice daily for fifteen minutes and that whoever did so would never experience life again the same. There would be a wondrous, internal and permanent change.

So as is always my way, I didn’t follow his prayer outline to the letter or even the word. Just as I can’t seem to follow a recipe as written, I cannot pray someone else’s prayer. So, I created my own inspired by the given prayer. Mine was simpler and flowed gracefully from my lips. Most importantly, I could remember it and creatively embellish it with flourishing concepts as I prayed and desired in prayer.

Divine Love fill me

Divine Love flow through me

Divine Love be me.

That’s pretty much the gist of it. So I did it, every time I remembered about it I stopped and said it. I wasn’t even sure what “Divine Love” was. It didn’t really feel like a prayer or sound like one, almost like an incantation or a spell.

I remember shortly there after things changing for me. More and more my actions, my seemingly thoughtless actions, surprised me. By “thoughtless,” I don’t mean not considerate of others. I mean I didn’t pre-think my actions and they were so amazingly thoughtful of others it was if I knew beyond my own mind how to be of the right help at the right time. I would continually say and do the right thing. “Hold on a minute,” I heard a voice inside me say, “You are surprised at your actions but haven’t you just been praying for God’s Love to flow through you and become you?” Was I? Did I? Is that what Divine Love was? I needed to know, for I had never heard it spoken of that way. Divine Love, what was it really? What was happening to me and had any other experienced such and written about it?

Feel Safe, Feel Love

You are making such an effort to separate that you insult and resist, creating tension. We know what you want. We will help you get there. Get out of your own way and see only through Love’s eyes.

What have I not forgiven?

You don’t have to forget, just forgive. Then you will not re-live.

What do you want me to know?

You are safe. There is no “new” information. We keep telling the same story. We will keep telling until all listen, hear and heed. This will be the triumph of God’s Glory indeed.

If the Divine and the host of angels are telling me “I am safe” how can I dare fear, fear anything? There is nothing for me to believe. Knowing is enough, knowing Truth. Truth speaks to me. I know Truth’s language. I hear Truth’s voice. I answer Truth’s call. I am “home safe” in Truth.

Feel safe. Feel love. Feel comforted. I hold you in My Hand. You are My Heart. 

Why do people hurt others so?

It is fear. Their actions come from fear, fear of the unknown, fear of the different. They feel threatened by the other and lash out. It is fear.

I love it when the right words fall from my mouth, when I am given the right thing to say at the right time, when I can offer a message that needs to be heard. Please continue to use my voice as yours. Speak from your heart of hearts to another with my breath. I am here for you to serve you and your people, my family everywhere.
