Some days we feel unrecognized.

The world does not see us and value us along with our good efforts. This is obviously perception, an experience of self or ego.  When you have “eyes to see and ears to hear” you can use your faculty of spiritual discernment and move your own thoughts and actions above this realm.  Here you will see as St. Francis did that giving is receiving rather than sacrifice.

Lord make me an instrument of your peace.

Where there is hatred, let me sow love

Where there is injury, pardon

Doubt, faith

Despair, hope

Darkness, light

Sadness, joy

O Divine Master grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console,

To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love.

For it is in giving that we receive.

It is in pardoning that we are pardoned

And it is dying that we are born to eternal life.

Amen

The clear idea here is that we surrender our sense of self and are filled with The One Consciousness and all sense of lack disappears and we are one with all that is, The Fullness of the Earth. Then we wish to share this and in sharing, we receive. In this forgiveness, we are forgiven, in this dying unto ourselves we are born.  The Divine Consciousness literally lives and expresses through us rather than us living as our small sense of self.

Let this day be a day of receiving Divinity and sharing It with all who come into your sight.

There is One Intelligence…

There is One Intelligence, One Mind of God, a collective consciousness, of which you are an aspect.  So there is a collective experience like seasons and plague etc… But there is an individual experience of these as well.  You see so many things in any given day and most of them just pass by as if you were driving past the scenery in a car, but a few of them are deeply impactful to you as you experience them more fully. Your consciousness auto-selects these experiences based on your individual filters.  You can affect this process by seeing them from a witness point of view. That is to maintain your being in God, The Christ Mind.  See all things as God and no weapon can be formed against you.  Your reaction to each stimulus or image (illusion) creates your experience of it.  “when you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.”  Maintaining your knowing of ALL things as God without overlaying your projections and interpretations is “The Secret Place of the Most High” where God is your protection.  Do not react from a place of “I” or self, rather see that “I Am” is with you always and know that you are safe. From Psalms 91, “1000 to your left and 10,000 to your right but it will not come near you.” This is the central feature of all conflicts and problems.  Learn not to attach and participate in the illusions of life as they blow by your window.  In the flying metaphor, keep your eyes on the instruments and pay no attention to your five senses.  God is with you always. Do not fall into your illusory response to a false image or temptation, however horrific or beautiful it may appear.  I am with you always.

Thinking of You

Thinking of you and wanted to share this with you.

Today, be surrendered, know that “I Am” is within you. The is nothing you can see or do that is not The Divine Consciousness manifested. Take no thought of your own.  Say, Thy Will be done.  There is a new freedom and joy to be found in living in the moment, assured that God is living through you. Now you can relax and allow God to be the love that pours forth from within you. If you allow your attack thoughts to pour forth from within you, that will define your experience.  If you allow God to pour forth from within you that will define your experience. In this moment feel the love that envelopes you. Only love can come close to you, only love can be in your experience.  Close your eyes and feel “I Am” within you and no other experience can come near you. When anyone or anything presents, however beautiful or horrific it may appear you must maintain your being in this Divine Consciousness. All you see is The Divine, manifested.  Now you may go about your day and know that God has gone before you to straighten the crooked road.  When you meet a conflict close your eyes, breathe deeply and see only God. Let go of appearances and touch this knowing.

I love you.

Allow this to be a great day.
