      “I AM with you, this day.  I AM with you.  When you feel, the stirring, within you, you know, I AM with you.  When you hear, the whisper, within you, you know, I AM with you.  There are signs.  There are messages.  And in each, sign, and message, I AM with you.     

           

       “When I walked, upon the Earth, over two thousand years ago, I noticed, turmoil, war, occupation, cruelty.  I also noticed, love, kindness, generosity, and compassion.  I noticed, watched, and knew.  I also noticed, competition, rivalry, friendly rivalry, amongst those, who were closest to Me.  I watched, and I noticed, while those, I held dear, argued, amongst themselves.  Who, might be the one, I loved, the most?  Who, might be the one, I trusted, the most?  And on it went.  Who, had the best gifts?  Who, spoke the best word?  I listened, and in the listening, I heard. 

       “It seems, to be the natural flow, of things, upon the Earth, that there is competition, to see who is best, in a variety of ways, be it intelligence, physical abilities, spiritual.  You can come up with a list, a competition list, and you will have many applicants, striving for the best. 

       “Each, one of you, is unique, and God loves each, one of you, without measure.  How is this possible!  You say, and I answer, because God is love.  Love flows, from God, freely.  One does not get a quart, and another a gallon, of love.  It just flows to you.  And, what you do with the love of God, that flows, to you, is the game changer.  But there is no extra measure, coming from God.  The gift, back to God, for the measure you receive, which is in equal proportion, to that, which all receive, is what you do with the love, that comes to you, from God. 

       “For example.  When you see a brother, and a sister, arguing about, who is the best, at whatever, you are aware of the competition.  But, the wise parent, points out, that each, one, is unique, pronouncing the truth, that there will never be another you.  And, the wise parent, will add, that there is no need for you to try to be better than, your brother, or better than your sister, because you will never be your brother, you will never be your sister.  You, have the opportunity, to be, you.  And what fills that opportunity, with glory, is the truth; that God loves you, equally; that the love, of God, is flowing, to you; that you permit, the love, of God, to flow, all through you, and then, let it leave you, and go out, into the world.  God’s love to you, blessed by your love, flowing through you, to others, is a new energy.  Every time you take the gift, of God’s love, and magnify it, with your own love, you are blessing the Earth, and all you encounter, with this new combination.  And when this new combination, comes from you, it is uniquely, your energy, mingled with the love, of God.  There is no competition.  There is, opportunity, for you to experience, the love, of God, fully, as you walk, upon the Earth; and then, take that opportunity, and magnify, the love, of God.  So, when this energy flows, from you, to others, it is a blessing, uniquely a blessing, from God, and from you.”
