Ever the Observer

It happened again, an event that struck fear into the hearts and heads of the many, and yet here I am seemingly unaffected. I am observing myself observe.
 
Ever the Observer I am. As you join with Me you shall see life from a higher perspective above the clamor that continually hammers.
 
Where is my place in this world Lord?
 
You don’t have a place in the world. I have set you apart, you are One with My Heart. Don’t forget it, remember always. Don’t expect another to agree with you to confirm this Inner Knowing you have, just be with it. Be at Peace with it. It is this continual peace which they will see. In this way, and this way only, you can show others that I live within thee. Words will never be enough.
 
I am remembering a passage from my book Listen Hear. “This book isn’t for everyone. It is only for those seeking a better way.” I get it! I get it! I understand now what that passage means more fully. One has to be a seeker first, he has to thirst for more knowledge, more wisdom within. The words I provide will mean nothing to the reader unless the reader is ready to receive, to know, not merely believe.
 
The messages are openings, openings into ways of knowing the Wisdom that is available, within reach. These lessons shared are not to teach the mind but instead to open the heart to the bounty of Wisdom inside. They are given to inspire others to reach higher, to desire The Way of Higher Knowing, The Way of Higher Being, The Way of Peace Within. Not all are ready. Not all can hear as you do. Let that be okay with you. Their time will come. All egos will eventually be undone. Leave that to Me. When they are ready, I will help them see.
 
Someone is propagating ideas of fear and hate.
 
Love is the answer. Love is the answer for everything. Love is the only answer, the answer to every question.  
It does not matter who it is that is spreading fear, causing turmoil, the answer remains the same. My Love is for all and this Love I Am you must be to see clearly. When you are the Love I Am, you will be living your Truth and then be able to see the Truth of others within beyond the shadows of physicality. Come Dear Ones, come see with Me. Which bandwagon will you jump on, love or fear? Compassion or hate? Your choices determine your fate.

The Age of Ripening

“So who am I?” I ask myself in all honesty. I reply, “I am a child of God, I do not deny. I am a daughter of Our Father.”
 
The more I choose to live this way, to listen to the guidance of my heart and heed what it has to say, I am learning to let go of the idea that I have to know what happens next or the resulting effect of something I have manifest. It is not necessary for me to the entirety. I can trust that if I follow through the Holy Spirit in its Infinite Way will know what to do to bring my part into the harmony that is.
 

I imagine life as a board game and you and I both as the players and pawns having two sets of visions. One of the overall grander scheme and another that can only see what is before one bodily. The One playing the game is all the same but chooses for fun, a variety of unique identities so He could see or experience uniquely a multitude of realities within the One True Reality.
 
To raise the stakes of the game and assure that not all experience would be the same, He put a veil over our faces which only allowed us to see physically, no longer able to automatically know what He knows, the Grander Scheme of things. Thus for each, life becomes a game of discovery where we freely choose what we think and do all the while within, as our Truth, Our Creator lives within whispering His Thoughts continually, waiting patiently hoping we will pause for a moment and see, truly see. See that this whispering Voice is for our best and knows truly what we can not begin to see with our eyes that are so beady.
 
This One knows, knows all. Knows our needs and how they can be met but He does not force or coheres any no matter what their actions beget. For this One knows that nothing we do will change our truth, our truth in Him, or His Truth in us. Thus we can not sin. There is no error. All is well. We play fair. We choose our lot.
 
But still Our Father/Mother delights when one sees, hears and heeds breaking the code of physicality, the Matrix that has limited ones knowing of who they are and who they can be. This is the goal. This is the name of the game, to see as God sees, to see each and all as the same, to live as One harmoniously, as a chorus knowing the Voice within us is for us to guide, protect and direct our every footstep. This is the Grand Symphony! Oh what beautiful music we will all make when we see as God sees. When we do this, when we all do this, the game will be complete. All as One, one for All, for all of eternity.
 
There are no mistakes, have no regrets. Have instead the time of your lives. Enjoy the thrill of discovery as you uncover the Truth of You, of Me within thee. All will not arrive home simultaneously, as you in the world for time see, but all in perfect time to Me. It is the age of ripening, of coming into your Fullness, of Coming Home to Me.

The True Sabbath

The seduction of things of materiality:  “I shall not want.” These words of scripture have new meaning for me. Newer, better, best… ideas always giving rise, attempting to test our will, tempting our minds, seducing our senses with ploys of joy all temporal, fleeting at best. Yesterday, I felt it again, this game of seduction the outer world plays. “Oh, if I just had this… all my troubles would go away.” I was standing in the ultimate playground of technology. “Oh my there are so many things here I would enjoy…”
 
All bells and whistles compared to what I provide, this connection you have that can’t be denied. Oh you can deny it with your mind and you continually do. But why, now that you know it to be true do you ever choose to? Satisfaction guaranteed with Me. Satisfaction indeed, no more looking, no more outside seeking. You have arrived at Heaven’s Gate, come My dear, take My hand, step Inside with Me.
 
You’ve seen this. You know this. You know you must stay near, near to Me continually. This is why I say you must think of Me, that you must call My Name continually. Never let Me go. Let your ego go instead. Your ego has falsely led you. Your ego has deceived you and you believed it thinking that it was you. But it has never been your Truth, I Am.
 
If you are continually seduced by the world and you play into the seduction you will not know Me within you, as you. You must fast from the world. You must enter into My Rest, the Truth Sabbath, the True Peace. This Peace you have expected to come not realizing that it is already here but now known unless you stay near to Me in thought.
 
Your soul, I have not bought. I came into the world to offer you a new way, but I could not stay for you (mankind) could not see. You could not recognize the Kingdom within Me within yourself as well. I left physically so you could only seek to know Me spiritually.
 

In reference to the Gospel of Thomas:
No man drinks Old Wine (Truth with a capital T) and then desires new wine (lesser teachings, not fully developed). New wine (lesser teachings) can not be put into Old Wineskins for the lesser teachings will burst, not uphold themselves. Once one has tasted the True Wine, the Old Wine, he will no longer desire or be satisfied with new wine, the lesser teachings, anything less than the fullness of Truth.
 
If the writings such as the Gospel of Thomas would have been included in the original bible texts people would have wondered their meaning. But instead by their omission, they are given no meaning. Thus they are dismissed by many of the minds which would later find them as they resurfaced into the hands of the many.

The secret within is the wonder they inspire. It is within the wanting to know the Truth, that the Jewel within is personally discovered. The mind that doesn’t wonder, that does not seek, will not know anything beyond what is beneath his feet.
 

I do not fit into this worldly paradigm. I have found that this world is no longer a friend of mine. Thus I must seek only inside for the Light the Christ provides. This Light I shall shine so bright. Never again, shall I deny Its Brilliance.

Grow in My Love

PictureEvening Light, oil painting by Debra Clemente
You can not be all things to all people but I can.
 
Who says all is well?
 
Those that know it and can’t help but show it.
 
Pity no one. For pity is to hold bad feelings. Feel bad for no one. Feel good, send love, send blessings, hold hope, have faith that good will prevail for all and in all. Have faith that God will one day have reign in their heart and that God’s goodness they shall know everyday from the end to the start. Hold this hope, this faith, this light in your heart, good will, God’s will for all. Let it be done as you say.
 
See a healing. See them whole. Imagine them as they are at heart. Wholly holy with Me, in Me, as Me. Imagine them one with God.
 
Everyone has their stuff to do. Don’t expect them to pay too much attention to you. You do not have to walk “in the limelight” to walk in My Light. In fact, you may well be the only light that can be seen where you are. They may not look at you and yet it the light you hold as you walk beside that lights the way as they go through the day. Do not expect others to look to you, allow them to look through you. Allow them to see through you the Truth I Am. Be this for Me, light a new way for humanity.
 
Life is not a popularity contest. In fact, as you follow My way you quite likely will not be popular at all. But whose favor do you wish to gain? Whom is it that you wish to please? Is it not Me? And am I not totally above the world and the worldly? My Kingdom is another realm high above earthly thought and matter. Make this your only matter, your focus, your desire, your life.
 
Look not for anyone else to fill a hole in which you may perceive in your heart. Only My Divine Love heals and makes whole. Holy it is and holy you shall be with Me. Holy, holy, holy in my Holy Kingdom, Kingdom Consciousness!
 
Do what you must! Grow in My Love. Listen to and hear My Words, My Pleadings unto your heart. Lessons they are now for you and as written they are breadcrumbs left for others who shall come and so desire to hear and know that I Am.
 
This is your work, all else is Mine. Let Me be who I Am in your life. Do not take your life back into your own hands. I see what you can not. Trust Me. Live in Me, as Me. Be My Divine Love and Light for this world that walks in darkness. Hold the Light, the Light of Christ.
 
You are ready for higher teachings, remain open to know and you shall. All is well, wish all well.
 
You are contemplative. You do not take anything given at face value. You site with it and wait to see if it reveals more of its self to you in time. Patience is a wonderful virtue. Be patient and wisdom will be your way.
 
What do you think? When you say, “What do you think?” Minds get involved; reason comes into play, judgment, and much, much more. All activities of the small mind which only knows what it has known in its physical life. But when one wonders new possibilities come to mind, new ideas, insights, fresh perspectives. Be filled with wonder and live a wonder filled life.
 
What do you wonder?

 
I wonder about life. I wonder about love. I wonder about God.
 
Then all of this you shall know.
 
Have I taken time to know them? Have I listened to who they are? Have I loved them in a selfless way?
 
You can keep anything alive if you give it enough attention.
 
Wisdom is only available in the moment, the moment it is needed. Wisdom is a floating thought to many that they give no credence to, thus they do not trust.  All wisdom is from God. All wisdom is good for all, for the good of all. Thus wisdom is the word of God.

Walking wounded you are humanity. Carrying on as you know how, battle scars and all. Some of you stand upright holding your head high with all your might. Many are in the middle ground, taking a path made by others here and there. And then there are some that can take the pain no more, they lay down and ask for help saying they can take no more and so I release them from their pain for they decided no more for this life of theirs they can gain. I welcome them home back into My Loving Arms where again they feel safe and know no harm.

The Master's Class

10/23/2015

PictureDebra Clemente in her element.
Did I sign up for a master’s class?
 
Considering that the Master is your teacher, the answer is yes. You said you wanted to know. You said you wanted to grow. You said you wanted to be with One with Me. A master you asked to be.
 
I like to hear different ideas, the thoughts of other people. It gives me more to wonder about.
 
Wondering is wonderful. Do not think that you can not know.
 
Receive Me, receive Me into your heart. Then live from your heart, Our Bond, One Beat, One Blood, One Life, One Breath, he breath of Life, True Divine Life alive, pulsating within you, as you. God in expression I am. A Christ is born.
 
I feel Your Life Force within me clearing a path for your Divine Energy to flow free. I am one with You and You are one with me.
 

Who is talking? Who is asking? Who is answering? It’s all me. It is all I Am.
 
There is no one else. All is one. Be as one, be the Whole Truth which you are. You are the Universe; you are not just one star.
 
Call Me by Name, I answer to all the same. Wherever you go, I Am. For I Am who you are. All is one. Gee, isn’t this fun? A riddle it is not meant to be for a part of you understands this very clearly.
 
Invite Me into your knowing. Invite Me into your showing. Be who I Am for you are no different, you only thought you were different. This is One Family, One Body, One Blood, One Breath. But your beady eyes view life so separately.
 
Listen to the others, even those that live in lands far away. They speak to the same God, to only One do all pray. I hear all, for I Am All. I am the space between which binds all and connects all. I am Life. I am breath. I am the air you breathe. I am the sky you see. I am even the ground beneath your feet. You can not separate, you can not divide Me. You can not pull Me in one way or another, for I am the Constant that is. I am the Universal Life for living through Thee is how each is set free. They come to Me. They open the door and ask for more and as they believe they shall so receive.
 
We are of One Mind, Divine Mind is Me. Divine Mind is thee. There is no other, All is One. This is why you are to love your brother as yourself, for you are your brother, you are your mother, a family, a unit, the totality of reality.

 
I write these things and they are amazing to me, revelations they are. And I wonder again how this can be that such words flow through me.
 
You are a slate and I am the pen.  You are the marble and I am the chisel. I am the paint and you are the canvas. We need each other to express the whole of what is and can be.
 
No, not everyone agrees. Not everyone so sees life as you do. This must be okay with you for it is okay with Me. I wait patiently for each on their own timing to so seek Me.

The Bridal Chamber

10/4/2015

0 Comments

 
PictureEvening Light by Debra Clemente
The Bridal Chamber, where the Union is consummated. There is the religion of the inner and there is the religion of the outer, in the Bridal Chamber the two become One and then live forever as One. Come join Me, join with Me, entangle yourself in the Divine Mystery. In this way you will see Me and see as Me.
 
Privacy, alone time, alone with Me, true intimacy. A marriage of souls, the Divine Symphony climaxing, arousing your desire for only Me, your True Love, your destiny. Trust My Embrace, you are safe forever more My dear. Trust in Me. You will see. Submit. Submit your everything. Unveil your eyes, look at Me. The Marriage has been consummated. You are now One with Me in Being.

 
But how do I live in this world? What am I to do? How am I to get along?
 
Signs are everywhere to be seen for those with eyes to see. Trust Me. Trust this Voice of Love to lead you unto all good things, unto pure refreshing waters to drink. Many never reach this stage of intimacy. They never enter the inner chamber of their heart and thus roam around in the outer court. They prepare not their hearts to receive Me. They remain in darkness knowing not the True Inner Light I provide. Bridesmaids they will always be as they continue to believe this is not possible to be. One has to desire the Perfect Mate to ever find one, the One. Their expectations are too low so they do not know what you are coming to know.
 
The old law said no one but the highest priest could enter the Holy of Holies. People were kept down by this belief. This belief still rules them, contains them, refrains them. They know not that it is within their power to be free, to know Me for themselves and as themselves. This is the secret that has been forever hidden from mankind, his Truth, this destiny as Man Divine.
 
You have the power to set mankind free by being, being this Love I Am in action, in the flesh, living as Jesus did, living as Me. Living with My Universal Consciousness as your guiding light. By looking to the Light inside that unites and not the outer, the outer darkness which continually divides as it sees all as separate from each other, separate from Me.
 
This is the way True Unity is achieved. The only way it can be. You must follow Me. This is what Jesus said and the words he spoke were direct from Me, the Father within him, the Father within thee, the Father Consciousness was and is speaking. Follow Me. Listen to this Voice of Love inside thee. Follow Me. It was I speaking. And yes, this is the only way to True Peace, to the Salvation of humanity. Follow Me, the Voice of Love within thee.
 
You don’t have to know Jesus the man, you must know the Consciousness he is. This same Consciousness is within you, within each. But it is not recognized, not seen for what it is thus given not credence, no belief, no trusting. This Voice spoke through Jesus and is now still speaking, “Trust in Me. Follow Me.”
 
You must come to so trust that you come to a place of knowing, a place beyond belief. This is the time of Marriage. The union of your small limited consciousness with the Unlimited Consciousness of Me. This happens in privacy, in secrecy, in the Bridal Chamber of your heart. This is why you are told to go away to pray, to go away from others, from the world and only Me seek. Seek to know Me, Me within thee.
 
No place is more special than another. You can be anywhere, even in the midst of others bodily. What matters is where your attention is, you must give it all to Me. Give Me your everything. Come to Me with nothing, naked, bare naked. Hide nothing from Me. I can see all of you anyway. You are never truly hiding anything from Me. But what I need from you is your honesty, your desire to unite fully with Me.
 
It is here We shall consummate Our Love, My Love for you, your love for Me. It is here that the two become One. It is already done, but it is in this Moment that the Truth becomes your reality. Because it is in this Moment that you have truly desired Me, desired My Wholeness,  My Purity, My Peace, My Love, My Wisdom, Our Truth in Unity. It is in this Moment that I give you new Eyes to see and new Ears to hear the full meaning of everything. You shall know as Me when you live continually in this state of Oneness, state of Unity.
 
Yes, it is a state of consciousness, a way of being, a way of knowing unity. The Father Consciousness, Christ Consciousness, Buddha Consciousness, Primordial Consciousness, all words used in an attempt to express this same knowing of Eternal Unity. Use My Eyes to see forever more My love. See the beauty life holds for you and more shall unfold for you continually. Stay with Me. Do not leave.

The Gift

God does not put ideas into our heads. God gives us wisdom for the moment. If God wanted us to be filled with ideas we would have been born with them. Instead He created us each in innocence and this is the way we are to remain to be one with Him. All ideas are of the worldly realm. We gather them and then cling to them for safety instead of cleaving to Him. With our ideas we reject Him who created us. We try to make Him like us with the ideas we hold, with ideas that have been told over and over again.

God created man in His Image and now man attempts to create God in his image. It’s not working people, can’t you see? This you believe, can’t be the truth of you, this Truth I am. For if it was you would know peace, peace now,and peace for eternity. The only way you can know is to return to your innocence, the sense you forgot about, your sense of wonder and awe of letting things be as they are instead of trying to control. You must let go, let go of all you know. In this way, you return to innocence and become My Child again. You return to the womb of your birth, My Heart.

And you learn to trust, trust in Me, in My leadings which I will give you as you stay close, as you cleave to Me admitting you need Me, admitting you can do nothing without Me. You do not live truly, you are in a sense dead to your True Reality. This is why My darlings that this life you are living pains thee. You have created a life of Hell, a life away from living as Me, through Me, which is your destiny, your inheritance, My Kingdom, part of a loving Spiritual Family. Who are all here right now to support and guide thee.

You think you are everything. But you do not know everything you are and everything you can be as you choose to live through Me. You know not your Unity. You recognize not your brother and sisters all around you. They are the children of My Sacred Heart as well. And as you receive them as this which they are a new story on Earth you will tell, a story of Unity. Join forces, hold hands. See how much stronger you are as you work together all inspired by this One Mind which is the Truth of All. One Mind, One Heart, One Eye Seeing. No more believing, innocence begets Wisdom.

Wisdom is the True Gift I have for thee, for all My children. Come return to Me. Join Our Heavenly Family and know My darlings, know Peace. Know all is well in Eternity. Come taste Peace now. Come to My Well and drink. Come to the Banquet which has been set. Come to the table and enjoy the Feast. There is no lack where I come from. Continually I create as I need and so do you with your idea. But see what you have created with the stories you tell. Fear, lack, greed, many with nothing to eat.

You are afraid of the light as you feel it will reveal your imperfections. Think again. Think anew. The light only shows the beauty of you. The dark shadows you see are not cast by Me but instead they are traces of that which you do not believe are worthy of healing.

Glow through me

9/23/2015

Picture
The sun, as it is said well of God, is no respecter of persons and thus shines on all equally. So it is and thus my eyes see the sun shining down upon everything, but that being so I as well observe that not all is illumined, at least from my current perspective. Some are shaded by an object blocking light from above. Some objects are dense and dull hardly reflecting the energy of the great sun, and others reflect this energy out again. On this fall day, I am observing a tree allowing the light of the sun to filter through radiating with the intensity of color and brilliance that only one whom has so allowed this great light to penetrate and flow through their being can achieve. This is my desire, to be such a glowing being. Dear Lord, help be to let Your Light shine through as only you can do.
