Gratitude and Abundance

Gratitude brings forth abundance of all kinds. This abundance leads to more gratitude, which leads to more abundance and more gratitude. What a beautiful cycle.

Attract or Repel?

When you know yourself as One with Him, as Love, there are those who will be drawn to you because the peace and the Light that emanates from you will remind them of their divinity. There are those who will be repelled by your Light and want to get away from you or crucify you because your Light shines into areas they don't want revealed. They falsely believe that that they are sinful, and your Light reminds them of that. This is why Jesus was crucified.

The Person Who Makes You Mad

There is no one and no thing which can make you mad. The only thing that someone or something can do for you is to act as a trigger for you. Then it is your choice, through awareness, whether to get mad or be at peace. This trigger is a gift for you to see deeper underlying patterns and beliefs which don't serve you and block you from recognizing your divinity.

Are You Willing?

It appears to easily get lost in the appearance of this crazy world, but everything is holy beyond comprehension. Be still for a moment as you read this --- you have touched on that holiness. What an incredible blessing this life is. What an incredible blessing that God experiences Himself through each of us, experiences His Holiness. You are a reflection of His Holiness. Everyone and everything you encounter speaks to this holiness when you have the eyes to see and the ears to hear. And you have the eyes and the ears because because you are one with God and He expresses through you. Your task is simply to want it more than anything else. You must be willing to drop what is false, as this reveals what is already there and holy. Do you want it more than anything else? Do you want it more than anything of this world? Are you willing to examine and drop all beliefs that don't serve you and block you from knowing your Oneness?

Certainty

If you worry if and when something is going to happen, it is because your faith is lacking. When your faith is there, it allows you to be completely patient, because you have certainty of the outcome. What is it that we all "worry" about when we believe we have separated from God? We fear that God does not love us or that He will not take us back --- but we have never left Him! It is only our false mind which tells us otherwise. Thus our destination is certain. We may not know the path in which we take to come back to full remembrance, but we can trust that it will take us there, because we are already there.

What Will Take Us To Heaven

When we judge someone, we are seeing them as sinful. We may see differences in judgments with some judgments being "milder," but this is false as ALL judgment is vision that is not of God and does not see the God within.

We judge because we project out our belief that we are sinful --- we are not seeing the God within us. We project out in an unsuccessful attempt to get away from the feeling of being sinful and the belief that God will punish us for that. How do we reverse this?

First, we witness this through our recognition of our judgments. Second, as we have these judgments of others, we look past their words and actions to recognize His Presence within. We call to the Christ within them and ask for their blessing to remember the Christ within us. As we do that, we live in "two are gathered in His name." Remember, judgment will never take you to Heaven. Only Unity will, as we cannot get to Heaven without the recognition that God/Christ/Love is within each of us. This is our true identity.

What Kind Of Prayer?

Prayers of gratitude come from your Real Self and are heard throughout the Universe. Prayers asking for material possessions or worldly things come from an illusory self that falls away when we die. If you are praying for material possessions, you are likely not receiving them, because you are asking from an ego level, not from the Mind you share with God. The ironic part of this is that when you ask from the Mind of God, you don't care about material possessions, only Love.

Seeing What You Want

When you are no longer looking for differences, you will no longer see them. You see what you believe. You project out your beliefs and this is what is brought to your eyes to confirm those beliefs. It is a failed close loop system, similar to a dog chasing his tail. Everything is of God and is neutral. It is how it is seen or how it is used that makes it "good" or "bad" in someone's eyes. Quantum physics has shown that belief/intention creates reality.

Because each of us have different belief systems, we each search for and categorize different things. But it is all an appearance. Nothing of God changes. Look and see how your beliefs change. Can anything so variable be of God? So if your beliefs are not of God, why do you place so much credence in them? Watch what happens when you drop your beliefs or at least soften them.

What If?

What if you made no judgments about someone you encounter for the first time? Who would they be if they were not labeled? Who would you be if you did not label yourself? We want to judge and label and categorize people as well as ourselves and our experiences because this is what we have always done. What if we did something different? Would your mind panic over the uncertainty? Love cannot be categorized, cannot be judged. Love is infinite --- it cannot fit into the box that you want to see it in. You do not fit in the box you have put around yourself.

Love In All Forms

Love can be exhibited in an infinite number of forms. It can come through an action, or a non action. For instance, let's say you have always reacted out of fear, anger, and blame when you discuss a particular subject with your spouse. But the next time you discuss the subject you don't come from this space, or you hold back with blame, then you have created Love through your non action. It was your intention that created this.

What Love Does

Love does not look for credit or adulation for its deeds. Love fills the holes where it is needed. It flows to the lowest levels to provide sustenance, whether this is anonymously, a smile to a stranger on the street, or a position on the world stage. Love sees no differences in what it does. Love is just filling the gaps where it is needed.

Belief In Separation

The good news for you is that sin, evil, judgment, guilt, shame, depression --- all of these are tied to one concept --- separation. When you release the belief that you have separated from God, all that is false, including all of the just mentioned, dissolve into nothingness.

Your Beliefs

It is not just certain of your beliefs or perceptions that create despondency and sadness within you. It is all of your beliefs, for your beliefs are attached to the world. Your beliefs revolve around the larger belief in separation. All of your beliefs show you differences which don't exist. We can only know/experience Unity and God, not believe in Him. You can't believe in something because belief requires a believer and something "outside" of you to believe in --- a duality that does not exist. The greater someone is attached to their beliefs, the greater they live in fear. Can we operate in the world without beliefs? Yes, this is what Jesus did and what we are all working towards --- being in the world but not of it.

The Now

Why do so many spiritual writers talk about the Now or holy moment? Why is this so important? This is your natural state --- this is not something you experience every once in a while. This is where you have always been, eternally. There is nothing you need to do because you are already there! All you have to do is release that which is false and which prevents you from recognizing your true state --- fear, guilt, and self judgment. As you go about your day, witness how you are always living in the past or the future. You will be astonished. Witness your thoughts and then bring them to the Now, where you have no problems, where only perfection is, where you are fully present with God.

You Can't Have Both

You can't have God consciousness, you can't be awakened, and hold grievenaces at the same time. Many want to be "enlightened" but still hold on to operating through their ego. This comes from a belief that they can't fully let go and trust God because they will be punished for their sins. So the ego becomes a type of barrier or protection --- a false barrier, because we cannot be separate from Him. Then the ego becomes enamored with enlightenment, just as some people are attached to sex or money. Awakening requires work and a strong will to see it through. It requires that in each and every instance, you forgive and drop your grievances. It requires that you be completely open to where God wants to take you. It requires an understanding and surrender that you (ego) do not know what is best for you because you do not understand Love and where your true joy lies.

Frozen In Time

Many have not fully grown up emotionally from their childhood and teenage years. They remain frozen emotionally at certain times that had traumatic experiences. This completely colors their perspective of how they see things because their belief system runs through a distorted lens. For many it is a belief they are not good enough or lovable. This will make them believe that God does not love them or that He will punish them.

Your Holiness

It is not a matter of how holy you are. Your holiness is determined through your Oneness with God. That is unalterable and does not depend on anything --- your thoughts, actions, words, etc cannot change that. It is how much you recoginize your holiness which determines your experience and what you manifest in this false world. It is your recognition which can create Heaven on Earth for you.

What You Think Versus Know About Yourself

It doesn't matter what someone thinks of you. It is meaningless, because their view of you is almost always formed and set through a distorted lens based on that person's experiences and needs. They see you in a certain way because they need to see you that way --- it fits into their belief system and doesn't disturb the apple cart so to speak.

It only matters what you think of yourself -- actually think is not the right word, because what we think of ourselves is seen through our own distorted lens. Now what we know of ourselves is different. We know we are One with Him and ALL that is. We know we were created by Him out of Love. We know we are not what we appear to be --- we are not a body living in a meaningless world that appears insane. We know our identity is not our experiences but the vehicle we have chosen to come back to God in our recognition. He has always known who we are but we are remembering. Thinking and believing are perception and mind based. Knowing is certainty based on experiencing our divinity through remembrance and recognition.

Anger And Guilt

When someone accuses you of something, you only get mad and defensive if you think its true AND you feel guilty about it. You can be accused of something and you can simply acknowledge that it is true. This is a warrior taking personal responsibility. If you don't think it is true, you can simply say so without the anger. It is the guilt that creates the anger, and the guilt can be whether it is true or not (you may have guilt over other things around this person and this triggers that).

We don't want to feel guilty, because guilt is what's wrapped around our relationship with God and cuts us off from feeling His Presence. So when accusation and guilt arises in our personal relationships, we try to turn the guilt around and project it back to the other person by getting angry at them. This unsuccessful of course, but we continue operating on this hamster wheel until we recognize the pattern and address the source of the guilt within us.

Jesus Said It

The only thing blocking you from moving mountains is yourself. Jesus told us who we are and what we are capable of doing. He even said it in plain words, not as a parable, so we would understand clearly without debate. You are a child of God capable of doing greater acts than him. What can be more clear that that? How could you ever think of yourself as less than holy?

Honesty And Being Yourself

Honesty with others, and especially with yourself, is a virtue of a self actualized person. For why would you have a need to lie unless you were trying to be something you weren't? And why would you need to be something else unless you thought you weren't okay as you are. Are you not okay as God made you? Does God make junk? Do you think it is possible that you see yourself as something other than how God made you, that you are fooling yourself? Maybe because you think you have done something (sinned) which changes who you truly are? Nope, not possible. God is All that exists and God cannot change.

Change The World

If you want to change the world, change how you see the world, and this will make the change you want. It all originates from your mind as you project your belief system on to what you "see." Withdraw your beliefs from that projection, change what you "see," and you have created a miracle for your Self and for the world.

How Close Can We Get To God?

You can hear God speaking to you, be in holy communion with Him, every moment. Your beliefs prevent you from experiencing this. You may believe this is not possible, as God is far away in Heaven or you have to go through an intermediary --- a religious leader who is "closer" to Him --- to connect with God. You may believe you are not worthy --- why would God interact with you on such a close and personal basis --- there is no way you could be so holy. You may believe that God is to be feared, thus you use that as an excuse or rationalize that it is not possible. You may believe that it is just to good to be true, that there can not be an answer to all of yours and the world's problems. It isn't to good to be true, and it is the answer to all of your "problems." Reach out to Him --- He waits in infinite patience because this is what Love does. Not only do you long for Him because you are Love, He longs for you.

The World Is Blessed Through My ...

The world is blessed through my forgiveness. Only through forgiveness can you see and remember God. Only through forgiveness can appearances dissolve, revealing Truth. Forgive the world on to which you have projected your "sins." Forgive God for what you have falsely projected on to Him. Forgive yourself for the "sins" you believe you have committed. Forgiveness is not actually necessary, as there is nothing to forgive ---we have never sinned and we have never left our Oneness. But in this world of duality and appearances, forgiveness is the lifeline we must grab to return us and our brothers and sisters, in our remembrance, to Heaven.

Learning Of The World

Knowledge in this world is fool's gold. We think this learning is valuable, but it is only valuable within the dream world, which is not of Him. It is often an impediment to knowing Him, because He is not in our head. He is in our heart, our feelings. What you seek is Divine wisdom, which He infuses you with to pull you closer to Him. Divine wisdom is God's Love which permeates every cell of your being, returning your mind, body, and spirit to wholeness.
