      The ways of mankind can be challenging, tricky, sometimes, trying to figure out how to maneuver, position yourself, in such a way, that you are in sync.  What is considered correct, one day, is often considered incorrect, the next.  And sometimes, fitting in requires that something be done, that it is not possible for everyone to do.  My ways are simple: kindness, charity, forgiveness, mercy, love, humility.  These things, and many others like them, can be done by everyone.  The only requirement is that you desire to do these simple things.  It is worth the effort, and once you are leading your life, in such a way, that you do show kindness, you do show charity, you know forgiveness, you approach others humbly.  As you practice, these simple things, you draw nearer to Me.  Everyone, upon the Earth, can do these things.  And the doing of them does not require money, a fancy house, a big car, a degree, a special course of study, strength.  No, what is required is the heart to practice.

 And The Holy Spirit says:

       In the world, created by man, there are limitations.  The limitations can be that: you are not strong enough; you are not tall enough; you are not rich enough; you are not smart enough.  There are things that only special people can accomplish, because of the limitations, which are decided by humankind.  But God has no such limitations.  Drawing nearer to God only requires that your heart is filled with love, and you are willing to be kind, to forgive, to nurture.  Let it be your intention, today, to begin building, storing away, increasing, as you perform acts of kindness, and charity, and love, and forgiveness.  The doing of it, will bring you peace.  Let there be peace upon Earth.

 

 

 

      When the waves, of the ocean, crash upon the shore, lifting their waters up, in the air, they are celebrating being.  When the waters, of the river, splash, and fall, in such a way, that calls your attention, from the shore to the center, of the moving water, the rivers are celebrating being.  When the breeze, moves through the trees, and kisses your cheek, with its presence, the breeze is celebrating being.  When the sun lights up all there is, it is celebrating being.  When the leaves, fall from the trees, and are caught in the air, in a beautiful dance, held there, for you to see, they are celebrating being.  So, today splash, be joyful, dance.  Let your feet show the rhythm, of Earth, that is, within you.  Dance, and sing, fly, and bring, the joy, of the celebration of being.

 And The Holy Spirit says:

       There is no doubt that life, on Earth, is temporary.  So, do not treat it as something ordinary, when a day is set, before you.  Celebrate the day.  Let today be a celebration of being.

 

 

 

 

 

 

      There will come, to visit you, a temptation, to hide your sadness, and sorrow, weakness, and pain, wounds, and tears, and rise-up, every day, and wear the façade, that is not necessary, at all.  For those of you, hiding your pain, I stand at the doorway, and look in, reach-out My hand, and say, “Come, sit with Me.”  For those of you, who are pushing down, or hiding, anything inside, so that you might appear to be strong, on the outside, I stand, at the doorway, and say, “Come, sit with Me.”  Sit with Me, in the sadness, and sorrow.  Sit.  Do not move.  Do not speak.  Reject the energy of guilt, and just sit with Me.  As we sit, together, with whatever is plaguing thee, our communion, our sacred union, will cause it to melt away from thee.  And in the end, all that will be left, is you, sitting with Me, in peace, minus the sorrow, and the sadness, and the fear, and the tears.

 And The Holy Spirit says:

       I live, within thee.  I AM part of thee.  And as difficult as it might seem, sometimes, for you to know you have a piece of God, within you.  Know this.  So, there is nowhere to hide, or run.  You can deny it, but just because you deny it, does not make it less so.  It is possible for you to free yourself, every day, from that which is a fly in your ointment, let us say.  Just sit, and listen, and be still, because in The Presence of God, darkness shall not envelope you.  What others do, or say, will not touch you, in any way, as you sit, with God, as you listen, for My Whisper, as you know, who you are, and what you are doing, and the importance of your mission, upon the Earth.

 

 

      “I AM with you.  It is a new day.  I AM with you.  There is no need to study the mystery, of how it is possible, that I AM with you.  It comes with a faith, and a belief, far beyond what someone else tells you, or what you read.  The seed of this faith, this belief, is within you.  It is carried by the spirit that is you, the eternal you.  Therefore, it comes from within, and no one can take it from you.  You have access to dimensions beyond your belief.  But, first, you must believe.  And with the believing, comes the knowing.                           

      

       “As you live, upon the Earth, you encounter many things.  And sometimes, the temptations, flowing toward your physical body, are too powerful to avoid: some, rather innocent, in their nature, that extra scoop of ice cream; some, are rather malevolent, in their nature, gossiping about others.  Those are examples.  But it does not matter which one we are addressing, the source, of the ‘education,’ is the same.  You must choose.  You make decisions every day, choosing what food you eat, what clothes you wear, what group of people you talk with, dance with, sing with.  You choose your thoughts.

       “In the decisions, you make, every day, you are showing, those of the world, who you are.  This is me.  This is how I eat.  This is how I walk.  These are the friends that I choose to spend time with.  This is the way, I comb my hair, or brush my teeth.  This is me.  These acts of kindness are me.  These acts of deliberately insulting another person, that is me, too.  You are showing the world, who you are, by the things you choose to do, think, say.  And often, you can successfully, hide, and manipulate, what you are thinking, doing, and saying, in such a way, that you present a face, to the world, that might not be a unique you. 

      “Often, you are trying to disguise your weaknesses, those things that you feel you do not excel in doing, to show a stronger, wiser you.  And this carries you far, because your family, and those who love you, as friends, more than likely see, through that, which you hide, and disguise, but they love you, anyway.  They love you, because they know you, and feel the spirit that is you.  Those, that are passersby, or acquaintances, might not notice this, at all.  They will see the superficial you, the part you wish to play, the role you have assumed, for that day.  But those who love you, and care for you, and know, what you are hiding, below, deep within you, they choose to love you, anyway, and wait for the time, that you will drop your guard, and say (that which you need to say).  And each of you have had the experience of sitting with one you felt attached to, attracted to, strongly, and in the conversation, those things, that you have been hiding, begin to slip up, roll over your tongue, and come out, in conversation.  And there, unexpectedly, you do not see shock in the eyes.  You just see a face, looking at you, sitting with you, someone there, listening, as you find the courage to reveal the authentic you, and to be vulnerable, so that you can be real, at last.  And when that happens, and all of this, you were hiding, inside you, is regurgitate, your body is free of it.  You feel better.  You are free.  You are no longer stuffing it down, where it is making you sick.  You have brought it up, and spit it out, and there it is.  That, My brothers, and sisters, is freedom.  Seek the company of those who are eager, willing, and lovingly wait, to embrace the vulnerable you, because as you have the faith to reveal, you are giving them the trust to be just as vulnerable, in the light of a new day, when there is nothing to hide, or stow away.

      “And, as each of you have had this experience, and know the feeling, I will say, that, within you, within your spirit, you have communion, conversation, union with God, with Me, The Spirit of God, the Spirit of Jesus.  This representation of God, upon Earth, is Me, The Three, Father, and Son, and Holy Spirit.  You know Us, and We are One.  And We are One, with you.  So, you cannot hide what you think, say, and do, because we see it, and know it.  We are, within you.  Heaven is, with you.  Heaven is, within you.  Begin to know the world, within you, the unending world, within you, eternity, within you, and understand that no matter what you try to hide, we love you anyway.  We know your strength, We know your courage, because We planted the seeds, within you, so you might grow, spirit first, and learn to wear the garment of flesh, to serve the spirit that is you, the spirit that came to Earth, on the mission.

      “Do not be tempted to get it turned around.  It is spirit that animates the body.  It is the spirit that is you.  And We know the spirit that is you.  And We love, unconditionally, without reservation, the spirit, that is you.”

 

 

 

      Close your eyes, to the ways of the world, and go within, for it is within where we will meet, again, and sit quietly, and know.  There is no need for words.  There are no needs, which will not be filled, fulfilled, to the measure, where you realize you require nothing, as we sit.  In the quiet, you will feel, more than you have felt before, because your eyes are closed, to the world, and I AM nearer than before.  Be still.  Be quiet.  Draw nearer to Me.  I AM with you.

And The Holy Spirit says:

       When your eyes are open, and you are moving about, listening to the sounds of the day, seeing the scenes, of the world created by man, you are distracted.  All that you see seems very real, your skin, your face, your hair, the clothing that you wear.  These things become natural, for you.  And you expect to see that face, to comb the hair, to brush the teeth, to change the clothes you wear, daily routines, distracting you, from the glory that is, within you.  Make time, every day, to sit in silence, to close your eyes, to be quiet, and then, you will hear.  And that, which you hear, will bring you to a new place, a new plateau, a new level.  And as you open your eyes, and move out, into the ways of the world, you are different, because you know, you carry The Spirit of God, within you, wherever you go.  And it is possible to bless wherever you go, with The Spirit of God, within you.  Awaken to this.  Look.  See.  Know.

 

 

 

      When the teacher extols the wonder, that is the student, that is within the student, that is of the student, the student rises-up, rises-up in celebration of themselves, at last, because slowly, one word, at a time, reveals, to the student, that which they are, who they are, from within, ignoring anything but the wonder, the gifts, waiting to be tapped, treasure, waiting to be cherished.  And as the teacher, slowly chips away, at the debris, that has been hiding the wonder, inside of the student, the student sees, and knows, who they are.  They see the wonder, because the teacher took the time to extol the gifts, to bring forth all that was in the student, so the student might look at it, and see.

 And The Holy Spirit says:

       There are many ways to try to teach someone, to guide them, to take them along the road of learning.  Sometimes, the ways chosen can be harsh.  Resist, and walk away from, the one who says, “I will teach thee,” but begins by belittling, finding fault, casting blame, setting impossible goals, being demanding.  Seek the teacher who is loving, who knows exactly the road to wisdom, exactly, not fumbling, not falling, pointing, and encouraging, the student to know who they are, and the wonder of who they are, without loud criticism, or belittling.  For the garden, will grow, when it is well tended.  And the student, will blossom, when they are watered with words of encouragement, acknowledgement, and support.

 

 

 

      In the valleys you will find refreshing water in rivers and streams.  You will find meadows, with flowers, trees, which are often the home for the birds, and the bees, and the other insects, which make it so.  You will find animals.  You will find vegetation.  You will find peace in walking in the valleys.  And there are many valleys, each unique unto itself, waiting to embrace you.  For, as you walk, into the valleys, you become one, with the valleys, and all that abides therein.  And the invitation is to, come, and sit, and be still, and feel Mother Earth, and breathe-in the air around you, and let your eyes go up, to the sky, and the clouds.  All of this is there for you.  Walk into the valleys.  See the view.  Visit them all, and then you will know abundance.  For, you will find it in the valleys of Earth.

 And The Holy Spirit says:

       Come unto Me.  Walk into My verdant valleys.  They are arranged so you can visit each one.  And The Gifts, of The Spirit, that rest, in each one, are waiting for you to come, to be still, and quiet, and look, and see what God has given unto thee.  I have come to be your Comforter.  I have come to be your Counselor.  I have come so you might know abundance, complete, full, waiting for you to embrace it, and live in it, and be part of it.  Be part of the abundance God has created for you.  See it in your physical world.  See it in your spiritual world.  And dive into it, enthusiastically, because it is yours.
