God said:

There is no bottom to My heart, and there is no top. My heart is Infinite. Truth be known, your heart is Infinite as well. As it is, however, My Infinite Heart is calm and patient while your Infinite Heart tends to tap its foot in impatience.

It could be that all you need in order to recognize the Vastness of your heart is to calm down. Even as you know that time is not, let Me tell you that you have all the time in the world to wait for patience to arise. What is your hurry in life? Must you be in such a hurry? And for what? Do you enjoy being hasty and insisting on your opinions as if they were holy?

Let go of the idea that you have to settle everything or anything the way you like. When you visit in someone's home, and you don't like the way they arrange their furniture, I imagine that you do not get up and rearrange their furniture for them. You don't, do you? Even if you are a certified designer, you likely don't move one piece of furniture unless the homeowner invites you to do so.

In a way, in this issue at hand, We are speaking of a different kind of interior design – the interior design of how you look at the world, your perspective and your opinion and how others may see differently.

Who says you have to be pleased? Why would you be impatient unless you thought you had to be pleased? Why exactly do you think that all the world is to decorate the way you like and think the way you think? Who made others accountable to you? Even your grown children are not accountable to you.

God said:

Beloveds, you existed before you were conceived on Earth. Have I said this before? There never was a time you did not exist. There is an old saying in English: "You were just a twinkle in your father's eye." In this case, We could say: "You were just a twinkle in your Father's eye."

Never were you not. I don't care if I have said it a hundred times. There never was a time you were not. We always existed in Infinity, for you are Infinite. We, you and I, exist in Infinity to this day. So, yes, your body is temporary, yet you are Eternal, and you are Infinite Eternity. It's fair to say that you are an Immortal. In terms of Consciousness, you are Immortal.

Do you have a sort of feeling that you would like to somehow have known yourself way back when? Of course, there was no when or then, yet you would love to know yourself in this way of Pure Consciousness.

There was no muddling through. There was only Being, and Being you were, and Being you ARE.

You have known everyone, not just some. Being knew Being. Being knows Being. There never was an absence. Of course not, for Oneness is always forever.

God said:

What if all of life were a video game? As it is, even knowing that a video game is a product of imagination, there are many who play a video game with their whole heart and soul. You play most games with your heart and soul. With the intensity with which you play, it could be easy to believe that you think playing a game is real. And so is Life.

Even as a bystander, your take games oh-so seriously. Consider sports. Many people who watch baseball and football and hockey and so on take it to heart. The fans cheer or boo to their heart's content. The game sure feels like life and death. And the win or loss of a favored team is talked about long after.

Life on Earth arises from far below the surface. Truth is ongoing, yet you may not pay as much attention to the underlying Truth of Existence as you do to the recounting of the surface plays. On the surface plane, the game may be well followed and adored. Oh, yes, there can be fun on the surface. Have it. Have the fun. Enjoy it. That's what it is for.

In a skating rink, the surface of water frozen into ice holds up skaters very well – until the ice melts. The ice you see, which is water frozen, is not forever, yet great inroads may appear before you that the atoms of frozen water make possible. Hurray for ice for the platform it offers. Hurray for the occasions that ice presents.

God said:

What is the matter with something being the matter? What is the matter with Life even when it is imperfect?

Sometimes you give the impression that everything is supposed to be perfect, and something is really the matter when something is not perfect. From an intellectual mind-set, what can be perfect? What is the point of perfection when life is alive and moves right along?

Of course, on one level, everything IS perfect. It is perfectly what it is.

On the surface level of life in the world, you may well feel that life is beset with difficulties. Did you really think that life was supposed to be a formal tea at the Queen's Palace? Is life to serve you tea and crumpets, the tea to be poured from sterling silver into bone china cups, and all guests are to hold up their little fingers as they drink the perfect tea at the perfect temperature?

Since when has life not had spilled tea and, since when, has dust not descended on classic books and comic books alike, on cardboard and fine furniture and there has been mud on shoes?

Since when has everyone's voice been modulated and not a disturbing word is to be heard?

Must life be commanded to be something it is not? How do you know that Life is to be prettied up?

Does even one of My children inalterably know what is best or better for Life to be? Is something other than what you have always the ultimate experience? Anyway, you are not here to receive a rehearsed life.

God said:

Come right in. Come over here to Me.

When We come down to it, I am what there is. We could also say that you, the so-called you, are all that there is as well. Call it you, I, We – take your pick – the One of Us is the Totality.

The world isn't really out there. Oh, yes, it seems to be. It certainly does. You can touch it; you can hear it; you can be boondoggled by it. You can break it; you can put it together; you can love it; you can be outraged by it.

You can make anything of the extant world you like. You can prove it; reprove it; edit it; undo it; rewrite your script all over. You can also go beyond the world of appearances.

Here is where I come in. Here is the True Reality. Inside Us isn't exactly the right expression. There is no exact right expression. We do the best We can. We attempt. Yet even language is not real. We palaver. We make sounds and shapes of sounds and combinations of sounds that We name language. We also call languages tongues while our tongues swivel and shake.

Of course, language goes beyond sounds and shapes. Some languages are called guttural. There is an affiliation between sounds and your guts – guts meaning where your world truth lies. You spill your guts out, it is said, when you tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. Do you see how one word changes another, or amplifies it, or crosses it out. Out with it!

God said:

Ego enters in when there is a deep-seated lack of self-worth. Lack of self-worth is the plague of the world.

Ego picks up details and tries to magnify itself in the world. It is fine for you to have joy where you have joy. It is one thing to have joy from a new car. It is another thing to have your ego blown up by the purchase of a new car, and now regard self-important as King because you drive a new car. A new car has nothing to do with your inborn self-worth. Enjoy the ride, yet do not mix it up with your God-given sense of self-worth.

Have no car in the world, or have ten valuable cars, your self-worth is not touched a whit.

The self-worth of My children is great, yet how many really know this. You could be the most beautiful woman in the world or the handsomest man, the richest, the most famous, the wisest, the most efficient and so on, yet all these matters have nothing to do with the Kingdom you were born to.

Self-worth is not revealed by status in the world.

Your self-worth is not proven in outside terms.

I have declared your self-worth. Your presence here on Earth establishes your self-worth. If you need additives from the outside world to bolster your sense of self-worth, ego has persuaded you, inveigled you, deceived you, masterminded you, pulled a switcheroo.

Let me make it clear that it is fine to desire whatever you desire in life and to gain it. Yet whatever you gain in the material world does not attest to your self-worth. Is this clear?

God said:

Stop grousing about life. Grousing means to complain. It's not smart to complain about life. So many of My children are very good at finding fault. Goodness knows how many have found grousing about life as easy as pie.

Look at the sky. Look at the colors of a rainbow. Look at blinking stars. Look at the yellow sun.

If you want peace in the world, bring peace to the world. Be the peace.

If you want joy in the world, bring joy to the world. Be joy itself.

If you want to bring a high vibration to the world, radiate a high vibration. Be that which you desire.

When you complain about crime in the world, what are you elevating?

When you gripe about poverty in the world, what good are you doing?

When you are angry with conditions in the world, what do you communicate?

Tut tut, you say about life in the world. Bring beauty to the world instead.

When someone sneezes, you say, "God bless you." What if you say, "God bless you," to the rain?

What if you sent out love to those who suffer in the world? What if you gave them love. Certainly don't get in an uproar because there is suffering as if that makes you noble. Do you perhaps think you are high and mighty?

You bless babies. You bless crying babies. Send blessings everywhere. Bless the world. Bless the ground you walk on.

Do not complain what others do or don't do.

Don't complain that the world was not made to suit you. Start loving the world instead. The world will rise. You will rise.

God said:

When you live in a valley, in order to reach a mountaintop, you climb. Climbing is your journey. It isn’t that you must absolutely reach the mountaintop. It is that you are to reach up and keep climbing. The adventure is in the climbing far more than in the result. Even so, there are results every day.

You are reaching for something, and you grasp something even as you may not consciously know what it is you grasp. There is somewhere beyond the valley where you presently live.

Valleys are very beautiful, and yet you climb higher. The climbing is your life. Sometimes you may slip. Sometimes you climb fast. Sometimes you pause where you are. Sometimes you take your time. Sometimes you skip along. Sometimes you are tired. Sometimes you never want to stop.

Isn't what is as it is also okay? Who has the right to say that life as it appears in a moment is not okay? How did you get to be so sure what life is supposed to look like? Your purpose is to climb. Are you here on Earth to say otherwise?

You practice life. You live the best you can. You do not have to be an expert. Certainly, you are not to be the judge and jury of life. Be an enjoyer of life. Be on your way. Jump over the hurdles with alacrity. Hurdles are in front of so that you can jump over them.

God said:

Must you take everything to heart as you do? Have you not had enough emotion? Do you have to be so disappointed in daily life? Disappointment wrangles your life out of proportion. Your heart sinks. You may have lost your faith in individuals or, even, the world at large and at Life itself and, alas, your faith in yourself. You are disheartened. Hurt feelings may preoccupy you. Hurt feelings are not to be the food of life. You are not to accept hurt feelings as your lot in life.

Soon enough, you will see that the major dramas that zap you are simply occurrences that steal your energy. You exaggerate. All the aggravations that assail you don't begin to be worth all the emotion you pour into them. It is almost as if you have decided to choose to matriculate in a curriculum of damaged feelings. Enough over-reacting.

Tomorrow, when your emotion fades, you see clearly that the energy you gave to today wasn't worth the woe and effort you gave to it, not by a long shot. The incidents yesterday weren’t the big deal you had thought. They were not the emergencies you had imagined. You see this now.

Yet your attention may latch onto another personal emergency as if there were no tomorrow. Life emerges. All this comes with the territory. The territory is Life. Would you major in emergency and urgency instead of love?

God said:

Baggage you carry with you is one thing. The concept of karma in the world is another. The difference may be subtle, yet the difference is momentous.

Yes, you may keep carting baggage from the past. Why would you keep dragging the past along with you on your next journey? You are smarter than that. Why would you go to all that trouble. For Heaven's sakes, why would I?

I wouldn't.

Do I teach you that you are a hapless victim of the past, that karma is your pay-pack, that retribution coming back to you to haunt you, that the past won't let you start over fresh, that the past follows you, even chases you, that you can't escape it, that a deed the person you once were committed is now marked on your back with a skull and crossbones, that, tut tut, that you can't do anything about leaving the past but to face the music?

Regarding this theory of karma, no one minds the karma of good deeds that you don't remember yet are considered responsible for. This is a horse of a different color!

By and large, karma is thought of as consequences for regrettable behavior. You may be an entirely wiser person now, yet somehow, still your hands are slapped from the past. If you were unkind to someone, one way or another, someone will hand you back the unkindness you gave even millenia ago. Tit for tat. That's it. There is nothing you can do about it. You earned this karma, and now it's time for you to pay the piper so be good from now on cuz so you won't have to walk in fear later.
