God said:

The refrain of life as sung on Earth is loss and gain with an emphasis on loss, so it appears.

Who goes to court to sue for a mistaken gain in income? No one sues a car company for the car's exceeding the anticipated gas mileage. No one sues anyone for delivering an unexpected third baby, nor would they!

No one complains about winning a billion-dollar lottery. No one complains about finding a $20.00 bill on the sidewalk. No one complains about gain unless it's a gain in weight or clutter.

There is plenty of complaint when someone loses his eyesight. You would too, understandably, yet where was all the gratitude for your eyesight all the years when you had the good use of your eyes?

In these days, age is often seen as a decline from strength, yet age often is a gain of wisdom and, sometimes, a gain of great wisdom and great goodness of heart. You really can't say you haven't learned something during your ride on Earth.

I am making a case for abstinence from sense of loss, abstinence from your seeing loss, seeing the absence of someone dear to you absconded and kidnapped to Heaven as an offense to you. Actually, you may see loss as something you own and of great value being stolen from you by stealth and by no right. You wouldn't mind being the exception to the rule and be immortal even in terms of this physical life on Earth.

There are two things to remember here, dear ones. There are reasons for the term of your body. What you see as death has merit behind it.

Many of you have been conditioned to be afraid of the future, to be on high alert for what is unwanted. You look for reassurances that nothing bad will happen. Do you ever think that the future could bring wonderful surprises? If that isn’t a potential you consider, we urge you to broaden your scope of possibilities.

The fear you have held for so long concerning your future has come from feeling powerless. Once you grab the reins and begin to hold the energy you desire and co-create from an empowered place, you can start to approach each coming day from a space of openness and acceptance. To put it in terms you can easily understand, there is no need to fear the mail when the bills are paid and you are simply waiting for the packages you have ordered to arrive.

Make room for magic in your lives, Dear Ones. Open to the idea that the unknown can be delightful. Allow the universe, and your highest self, to serve and delight you in all the ways you couldn’t imagine, and you will embrace each day with a sense anticipation and wonder. ~Archangel Gabriel

Be an ardent lover to yourself, to your life. There is no greater passion, no greater love. If you are passionate within yourself, you become passionate with the world. ~ Creator

Waking Times

Silence is a word pregnant with multiple meanings: for many a threat; for others a nostalgic evocation of a time rendered obsolete by technology; for others a sentence to boredom; and for some, devotees of the ancient arts of contemplation, reading, and writing, a word of profound, even sacred importance.

But silence, like so much else in the present world, including human beings, is on the endangered species list.  Another rare bird – let’s call it the holy spirit of true thought – is slowly disappearing from our midst.  The poison of noise and busyness is polluting more than we think, but surely our ability to think.

God said:

There is an expression: "Everything is over." You may say this with sadness. Or perhaps, you say with relief: "Now I wash my hands of that."

Here's the thing: Every experience you have embeds itself in you. So, in one sense, nothing is ever over. You may forget. You certainly move on from the past, yet the experience has made its mark.

Of course, the mark of every experience is how you see it. If you see an experience differently from the way you used to, the mark it leaves is configured differently. So, all the past is as you see it. All you experience in life is your impression of it. You see what you see. There is more than one way to see the same thing. Whether you see a rogue or an angel, it is your perception. Your perception leaves its trademark.

You, the interpreter, interpret. Whatever your interpretation of an incident or all of life may be, this is how you see it, and that is the truth for you. In years to come, you may see differently. You may naturally come to see a mother or father, for example, in a different light. Life has given you greater understanding, and now you have a second impression. It is good to have gained understanding, yet this, is not something you can command. You cannot wrest new understanding from yourself.

You would love the idea of letting go of all that you may have collected. You would love to be done with it. You would love it to be over. You would love it to be gone.

Ask and ye shall receive. It has never been if: you are good enough, deserving, have suffered enough, are worthy enough or perfect. The Universe is ready to give regardless because you already are all of those things. Ask and ye shall receive. ~ Creator
