The last bite, of the peach, is just as sweet, but never as exciting, as the first. For, the first bite of the peach: explodes with taste; is filled with the aroma; is touched, in the holding, of the peach. And that explosion, of experiences, of the senses, will not be repeated, as you continue, to eat the peach, you hold. But the nutrients, and the value, of that, which is the peach, will give you what you need, will sustain you, will help your body stay healthy. And when it is done, and the last bite is taken, there, resting in your hand, is the seed. The promise of another peach, picked from another tree.
And The Holy Spirit says:
Your life, upon the Earth, is a series, of experiences. And with each new experience, there comes excitement, or surprise. That excitement, or surprise, with each experience, is dulled a bit, as you move through the experience. The first, is sometimes shocking, explosions of joy. But it can also bring sadness, and sorrow. Your experience, during your lifetime, upon Earth, alters, changes, but it is still yours. It is much like eating the peach. The first bite of life is filled, with the senses, experiencing something new. But as you make your way, through your life, just as through eating the peach, there will come the last experience, the last bite. But the last bite, the last experience, reveals the seed, the eternal body, which is the promise of a new life, from the eternal tree of life, in the promised life, that is yet to come, in the series of your eternal life experience. View your life today as a piece of your eternal experience. And as you see it that way, it broadens your perspective. You are grounded. You are on the Earth, but you are also of Spirit, beyond the Earth.

Drop the cloaks, you have clutched, to yourself, holding tight, and close, and all around you. Drop the cloaks of pomposity, and arrogance, and pride. Set, all preconceived notions, aside. Release, the teachings, you have learned, at the feet of those, who were telling you, the information, of the world, created by man, and be still. Sit, with Me. You cannot know, what you do not know. But when you sit, with Me, I will teach thee, all you are ready to know. And together, we will take one step at a time, into The Ways of Knowing. And when it is done, each step at a time, your final step, will be Home. You will have walked through, the passageways, of knowing, and entered The Dimension of Perfection, you call Heaven, ready to know more, and more, and more. These things, I wish to share, with you, are not found, in the smartest, most intelligent people, noteworthy books. Nowhere, you go, will give you, what I will give you, because My gift, will be revelation, and you will know, piece by piece, that which you do not know.
And The Holy Spirit says:
There are times, when you hear, individuals speak, on topics, in which they are well versed: they know the facts; they know the figures. But then, there will come a time, when you hear words, uttered by another human being, and your heart will receive the message, and you will know, these words, spoken, did not come from books, or teachers, or institutions of learning, or even life experience. The words, you have just heard uttered, were revelation, from God.

“I AM with you, in the wind. I AM with you. I AM with you, in the scent of the flower. I AM with you. I AM with you, as the rain kisses your cheek. I AM with you. I AM with you, as you smile, hearing the laughter, of a child. I AM with you. I AM with you, when the night, seems, too long, to bear. I AM with you. I AM with you, when you wish to dance, with joy. I AM with you. I AM with you.
“It might be difficult, for you to comprehend, that Heaven, The Dimension of Perfection, is with you, is near to you, is within you. And so, you take this, with faith, that it is true. Hold that faith, but I also wish to show you something, new. If you will make a practice, of taking yourself aside, and being still, and quiet, with the intention, of communion, with God, in those sacred spaces, you create, when you are open, to revelation, to being taught, by God, God will teach you. And you will begin to know, not just believe, not just hope, or take on faith, but know, Heaven is near to you, and with you. This type, of revelation, cannot be taken from you. It will be challenging, if not impossible, to describe, the experience, of the knowing, Heaven is with you. And it is just one step into, The Ways of God. But there is evidence, all around you. And you can find it in the physical world, in the material world. When you see evidence, interaction, then, you begin to understand, better, that these are signs, and messages, showing you, in little bits and pieces, how the eternal is accomplished.
“You must be willing to drop, what you have wrapped around you, sometimes, tightly. All that you think you know, let it go, and sit, quietly, because sometimes, the teachings, of the world, are not in alignment, with The Ways of God. There is something missing. Storehouses of information were lost, thousands and thousands of years ago, in a fire, or some other incident. Something is missing. Nothing follows a complete thread, except, when you sit, with God, and truth is revealed, in entirety. That is when you know. That is when you are the master of the puzzle, and the puzzle fits, because you took the time, to be taught, by God.
“It will not work, to gather-up the material objects, and the ways of the world, and take them into the mystical, and spiritual. It is not meant to be so. It is meant that the mystical, the spiritual, come into the material, because the physical, the material, is animated by the spiritual. Not the other way around. You are spirit, first. God is your Eternal Parent. Begin to understand, and comprehend, the importance of being taught, by your Eternal Parent. Nothing will be missing. The truth will prevail. And each, one of you, will be taught: from where you are; how you can best apply what God, is teaching you. It will be individual instruction. It is said, in Scripture, in the Old, and the New, Testament. There will be a time when all will be taught by God. Well, this is the time.
“Drop all the debris, you have gathered, and open. Sit, quietly. Embrace, the revelation. And dance, with joy, that you are taught, by God.”

When the paint is first applied, to the canvas, it appears to be chaos, colors, swirling everywhere, until the hands, of the creator, bring order, to the paint, to the colors, to the canvas. And soon, the hands, of the creator, have created a masterpiece there, on the canvas. The threads, for a tapestry, hang, in colorful rows, on the back side of the tapestry, waiting, until the hands, of the creator, pull the threads, through the canvas, in such a way, that the hands, of the creator, bring forth a masterpiece, pulling the threads, the colorful threads, through one at a time, until it is done. The pieces, of a jigsaw puzzle, are scattered, randomly, on the table, until the hands, of the creator, put the pieces, one piece at a time, into place. And soon, the creator has created a masterpiece, a picture, created from scattered pieces, and there it is. You are waiting, I AM creating, applying colorful, delightful pieces, of the puzzle, that is you. Each thread brought through, at the appropriate time, in the appropriate place, until there, I see your face, and you see Mine.
And The Holy Spirit says:
You are as the canvas. The paint has been applied. It swirls all around you, as do the colors. And the hands, of your Creator, your Eternal Parent, continue to move: applying the color, where needed; pulling the threads through; making sure, that you are where you are supposed to be, at the time you are supposed to be there; continuing to weave, until the tapestry, that is you, takes on a life that is rich, and true, and filled with color. And the hands, of your Creator, will continue, even when your life appears to be in chaos, and confusion, scattered all around like the pieces of a jigsaw puzzle. The hands of God will move: and each piece will be set in place; and the colors will be glorious; and the tapestry, of your life, will be there, just as it is meant to be. Sit with God, and let it be.

The lamb knows the call, the sound, of its parent, and finds comfort, therein. So too, do the birds, of the air, the fish, in the water, a child, with its parent. My children, know, My Call, know, My Sound, feel, The Stirring, and find comfort, therein.
And The Holy Spirit says:
There is something, waiting for you, that is new, comforting, uplifting, rejuvenating, fulfilling. But to have this experience, completely, you must answer The Call, respond to The Stirring, harken to The Whisper, because, when you answer, your Eternal Parent’s call, you find comfort, but you are also strengthened. And your response, to The Call, fulfills your desire, to be one. Do not dismiss The Call, The Whisper, The Voice, as a coincidence, or something you thought you heard, or felt, when The Stirring began, within you. Give credence to The Voice, and therein, you will find comfort, strength, courage, wisdom, and The Knowing.

Not until you take yourself aside, sit quietly, and be still, can you feel, My Presence, with you, in a most profound way. You can say, I AM, with you, in a busy city, with horns blowing, and people talking, doors slamming. You can know, I AM, with you, any time, any place. But when you have the desire to feel, My Presence, with you, it cannot be accomplished in chaos, and confusion, and noise. If your desire is to draw closer, to Me, and feel, My Presence, with thee, you must find a place that is quiet. You must guide yourself to be still. You must be in silence. And, when you have found that place, and when you have reached the state, of quiet, stillness, in silence, you will feel, My Presence, with you, and you will know, that which you did not know, before, because you will not be praying, using words, singing, you will be quiet, so I can fill you with My Wisdom. And then, My Wisdom, and My Ways, shall be your Wisdom, and your Ways.
And The Holy Spirit says:
Do not hesitate, thinking it is selfish, to take time, alone, to be still, and quiet, so that you might know, The Presence of God, with you. This knowing, will be the fuel, that compels you, to go into the world, a changed being, carrying, within you, the remembrance, of feeling, The Presence of God.

If you begin to stray from Me, after a while, you might feel as if you are very far from Me. But this is not true. I AM just as close to you, as ever. You have just turned your back. Therefore, you cannot see Me, or feel Me, because: you are, occupying yourself, with other things; you are focusing, on other things. But still, I AM exactly where I have always been, close to you. I have blessed you, with the gift of free will. And this is magnificent gift. It assures Me, that when you come to Me, when you call upon Me, when you draw nearer to Me, it is because you love Me, and that is what you want to do. You are using your free will. When you focus, on other things, and turn your back, and walk away, in doing so, you are also using your free will. This is a gift. Therefore, I will not go away, when you choose, to use your gift, in a way, that turns you from Me. I AM present. I AM constant. I AM love. So, I wait, and I abide, in My love, for you. And when you turn, to return, here I AM, waiting, for you.
And The Holy Spirit says:
When you are in human being form, it is difficult, and challenging, to comprehend, that no matter what you do, God loves you, the same; that God does not draw back His love, even if you defame, the name, of God. God is love. God is present. God is near to you. And when the day comes, when you feel, that slight stirring, within, do not hesitate, to speak the name of God, because no matter where you are, what you are doing, or what you have done, God is waiting. Turn around. Return, and step into the light of love.
