Heavenletter #4183 God's Highest Creation, May 8, 2012
God said:

From the very foundation of Creation you arose. And what is the foundation of Creation? What can it be but love? What else could create and create so magnificently? Just think of it! I created the Sun, and the Moon, and the Stars, and I created you, My Highest Creation. The beautiful planets are given a route to take. They are set in place and follow their orbits. They are magnificent, no doubt about that.

Yet what was given to you that nothing else on Earth has is free choice. You are not locked in place. You have the freedom to go where you will. You can turn yourself upside-down if you will.

A flower can only grow to the sun. And a flower enjoys every particle of its life as it grows to the sun. And when its day is done, it lies down, happy to be returned to the earth and grow again another season. Flowers and all else of the Created Realm follow their orbit.

You, on the other hand, have infinite choice. Ultimately, you come to the choice of love, yet, meanwhile, you can do as you choose. Ultimately, you come to the only conclusion there is, that you want to be love and spread love. Ultimately, that is your destination.

Meanwhile, you have all the time and free will in the world to chop down trees or to plant them. You have the choice to create or not create. You have the choice to stay still or to move. You have the choice to hide your heart or bare it. You have infinite choices, is this not so?

Other created beings on Earth lead a more circular life than you do. You were blessed with the whole world and to make of it what you will. You are the governor of the world. You don't even have anyone to report to. You can be free and lazy. You can be free and ambitious. You can be free and choose to follow Me. I send you My regards. I am at your elbow, and I encourage you, and, yet, you are not at My entire beck and call, are you?

Along with the freedom that has been given to you comes responsibility. You do not have to follow orders. No, not at all. You do not have to follow love or peace. You are free to follow negativity and war.

You are definitely not an automaton. You can sing, or you can shout. You can smile, or you can frown. You can bless, or you can harm. You can be all of these even in one day.

No choice is kept from you. You can go right, or you can go left. It is your call.

Do not think that you have no choice. You can turn in any direction you choose. You can turn around. You can go forward or back. You can go up and down. You can do any number of things. And, yet, ultimately, you come to love, and you come to peace. You choose them.

You can put your Father's House in order, or you can leave it out of order. Who is that up to if not you?

You do have some restrictions, however. The body you are in will not carry you forever. How and when you leave your body, no one knows. Those decisions are made for you, or, at least, you don't remember any previous agreement. In any case, your physical life journey will be rescinded.

Meanwhile, beloveds, make the most of this glorious opportunity given to you called life. Live your life, and come soon to living Mine. It's bigger.

Heavenletter #4182 As You Really Are, May 7, 2012
God said:

What is going to emerge from your heart and soul today? What will occupy your heart and soul? What will your daily life be today? Can your heart and soul and daily life be the same?

Of course, they can.

You can be of equal high standing in your daily life and the deeper life of your heart and soul. Pause a moment, and think what this would mean. You would be at One with yourself. You would not be fragmented. You would not be one way here and another way there. You yourself would be unified. There would be no departing from the wonderfulness that you are.

You would no longer compartmentalize yourself. You would be the same at home as at work. It is not exactly that you would be on your toes and exemplify good-heartedness and wise soulness in your daily life. You would be all that without thought about it, without effort or strain. Oh, how relaxed you would be when you are your One Self. Then you would know relaxation. Then you would know what it is to be your Self.

You may think that it is not easy to be your best self at all times. Beloved, when you are not your true real self, that's when you are out of sorts. What could bother you when you are your God Self at all moments? Have the intention to be this now.

This doesn't mean that you are dressed to the nines. This means that you are at home with yourself, and you make others feel at home. You are not a copy of an image you have. You are My image, and you can relax into it. I am asking you to be Who you truly are without all the dime-store masks you have put on.

Admit, you are one way here, and another way there.

I am not telling you to put on a show of fellowship and awareness of love. I am telling you to let go of the various masks you have put on, ones you favor and ones you don't favor. You are no longer the older brother or the younger brother. You are no longer the smart one or the slow one. You are God's child. Think of it. You were born from My heart of love. You are Someone. You are Someone Great. If you cannot accept that you are Someone Great, can you accept that you are Someone? You are your Self. You are not dolled up. You are simply the Wondrousness of Me. Let all the other stuff go. What are you doing with all that other stuff anyway?

You are letting go of the pictures others imposed upon you, and you are letting go of the pictures you pasted upon yourself. You took these varied pictures as essential to your survival. You super-glued them to yourself. You forgot these pictures were only pasted on. You thought they were you. They never were you, for you are so much more.

What the highest human beings in the history of man have been, so can you be.

What were all the Great Ones but themselves? They did not set themselves up to play a part. They were the part. They were nothing but being themselves, unsullied by pasted-on pictures. They were themselves as I made them. They did not kid themselves nor did they kid others. They were simply who they were without effort and without triumph. The Great Spiritual Ones were not thinking of how they appeared to the world. They were thinking of how I appeared to them and what I desired.

I asked of them no more than I ask of you. I ask you to be Who you already truly are and not a copy from a Xerox machine, not a copy of an old family portrait. I asked of them nothing but I ask of you, the Truth of you, your Original Self without add-ons, you, My beloved, as you truly are.

Heavenletter #4181 In Your Realization of Oneness, May 6, 2012
God said:

In Oneness, you let go of your old identity. Even wonderful identity, you let go of it. In Our Oneness, the Oneness of I, it is you and it is I, and that's it. Even the identity of family, you let go of. Good family, happy family, sad family, unhappy family, you let go of. Your profession, you let go of. Your wages, large or small, you let go of. Employment or unemployment, you let go of. Gender, you let go of. Age, you let go of. You might think you are being reduced to Oneness, yet all your ties on Earth assume a different position, and you are rising to Oneness. When it is you and I, it is you and I, and naught comes between the One of Us. Reuniting with Me in Oneness is not a social activity.

It is not that you throw away all the good in your life. It's that all your identities of the past are no longer first. You and I are first. You do not come to Me in a crowd, beloveds. Whatever has bolstered you in the past recedes now.

Your identity becomes greater, not less. Everyone in the world can come to Me at once. Nevertheless, each comes to Me with his or her heart, and that's it. Great numbers can become initiated all at once, yet you, who are Oneness, come to Me on your own. You have a new identity now. You cannot keep the old identities. If you were a football hero, no one is taking that away from you, but you leave the uniform behind. Any identity but the One of seeming you and I merged is too small. You are of a bigger family now, this Oneness with Me.

You come to Me on your own, as it were. You come to Me with all the love in your heart. There is no choosing of this and that when you come to Me. You do not keep your riches as primary when Oneness is primary. The Oneness of Us is primary. All the ties with the temporary world and its abundance recede into a backdrop of a stage. You are not a backdrop. You are not your history. You are not your childhood. You are not your past. When you become One with Me, you are greater than you ever knew, and no longer are you dependent upon all the beautiful things you were once dependent upon.

Do you understand Me? You can't claim both Oneness and multiplicity. You are not giving up anything, beloveds, but dependency and attachment. Whatever your identity has been, no matter how fine or marvelous, no matter how integrated or scattered, dear or not dear, the boundaries of your past identity no longer assume the importance they once did. They were of your mortal life. As you embrace Oneness, you kiss the temporary goodbye.

You are taking a voyage. For Our purposes here, you cannot stay home and take the voyage. You cannot stay close to your fireplace. When you venture, you have to venture. You leave where you are. You do not stay.

No longer is your identity American or European or indigenous. No longer is your identity your Earth father's son. No longer is your identity anything at all but with Me. Your reliance on world identity is past. You stay on Earth, and you live on Earth. All the wonderfulness remains, only you no longer own them. You do not keep them clutched in your hand. You enter a greater world where you and I become One. Oneness is all you ever wanted. Oneness with Me is what you have always wanted, and you will have it. You will arise to it without accumulation from the past. Of course, I am your True Past. I am where you came from. We reunite as One in your realization of Oneness.

Heavenletter #4180 A Whole New World, May 5, 2012
God said:

From My heart to yours emanates My love in full splendor. What else could I possibly give to you but what I AM? I say that even as I realize that sometimes, in times of woe, you can only think I give you what you perceive as heartache and loss. I do not take anything away from you. I do not plot or plan ways to make your heart ache.

Nor is life on Earth, as you know life, a spin of the roulette wheel. Nor is life on Earth locked in place. Certainly, I do not go around thinking what mischief can I create for you today. Certainly life holds surprises for you, some that you see as wonderful gifts, and some you see as travesties.

Sometimes you may feel herded along into a corral not of your choosing. You are certain that no one in their right mind would choose the life handed to you. You are happy to accept as gifts the miraculous blessings poured upon you, the ones you like a lot. You like to feel favored by Me, yet when life brings you the categories you call unhappy or tragic, you feel out of favor, and, so, you may bat your feelings toward Me back and forth, and, so, you give Me credit and you also give Me blame. What if you did not?

There is a huge thing going on in life, and you are given great opportunity to gain a greater grasp of life and to release its hold on you.

I am well-disposed to you. I do not seek ways and means to hurt your heart. You are gaining a greater understanding and perspective on life. Your thoughts, your reactions are great building blocks of your life. How you react is not a small factor. You do not have to be limited in your reactions the whole course of your life. Not any longer do you at all.

You can have a greater understanding, even when you don't understand at all. You would have to stand on a higher mountain in order to see far beyond where you see now, yet, even on the same rung of the ladder, you can grasp greater. But, of course, you are moving up the rungs of a ladder, and you are climbing to greater heights from which your perspective grows by itself. Beloveds, there is something good for you in every moment of your life on Earth.

Of course, you are attached to life, and you want it to be fail-safe.

And, in Reality, life is fail-safe. Life on Earth is a life within a life. Earth life is the changeable drama of life. The life within a life you spend on Earth is temporary. All the boundaries are temporary. By its nature, life on Earth is fleeting. And so, you, too, manage your approach to human life, how you size it up, how you see and how you learn and what you learn. These also change. Life on Earth is the life of illusion, and, right now, you are letting go of your tightly-held attachment to it.

Interestingly, your thoughts are a great factor in human life. They are integral to your life. An event is an event, yet an event can be looked at in countless numbers of ways. You can look at life differently from what you are used to.

Try this on for size, beloved. In everything that reaches you in human life, there is a treasure. Open the occurrence and look at it in a new way, a less logical way. Logic can be a boundary, and you want to move beyond boundaries. In every bit of life, there is a treasure, and you can find it. And until you find the treasure, you can stop resisting what occurred, and you can rise above your self-imposed heartache you assumed.

A telescope will soon arise within you whereby you will see at a greater distance, and you will see a whole new world of life before you, and, when you look back, even though you will hardly look back, you will also see a whole new world behind you.

Heavenletter #4179 World, You Are Beautiful , May 4, 2012

God said:

Your project today is to enjoy yourself. Have fun. Give joy. Gladden the world. Gladden those near you. Gladden those far away. Gladden, gladden, gladden.

One heart affects another. One heart affects every other. You are the bellows that blows joy into every heart in the world. Yes, you do have a responsibility. The responsibility is yours.

Don't tell Me that you can't do anything about world affairs. You can. You can stir the world to Greatness by your thoughts alone. Pointing out the errors of the world digs error in deeper. Loving the world stirs the world to new heights.

The world represents your thoughts. Give the world new thoughts to think of. Give the world new fodder.

If you desire the world to change, then change it. Change your thoughts, and the world will have a new day, a new kind of day, and you will have created a new world. By your thoughts, you do this. By how you communicate to the world, you do this.

Send star dust to the stars. Whiten the moon. Yellow the sun. Send kisses. Even a world that misbehaves needs love more than correction. The world has to feel good. The world is just like you. It needs a boost more than it needs its faults pointed out. Point out faults, and you increase them. Point out the world's good points, and you increase them.

Rap the world's fingers, and the world is hurting. Bless the world, and the world is blessed.

This seems overly simple to you, yet you may well have trained the world to go in the way you do not want. Nor does the world want to go in the old ways. The world does not want to be furtive. It doesn't want to have to look over its shoulder. How much the world wants a new lease on life.. Give the world this new lease. Rewrite a contract. Or write the world a note. Write:

"Hi, world. I am going to make you even more beautiful. Not with make-up, no. But with belief in yourself. When some many look down on you, it's hard for you to keep your head up. Beautiful world, I am not remaking you. You do that yourself. You do that automatically as soon as I believe in you, believe in your desire to reflect the thoughts of man. You have no choice, do you? You are at the mercy of the thoughts of men, the engagement of man on Earth. World, as my thoughts go, so does the grace of the world.

"World, you can be anything you want. You can be a New World. I am at the helm. I steer the ship of state. From now on, I do not waver. Full steam ahead.

"You are my beloved world. And that is how you become a loving world. You become a loving world according to my thoughts. I steer you to shore. I steer you. Let's take new pictures now. Let's refresh you, world. Let's paint you beautiful. You are a painting of my heart. Today I throw away the old pictures, and now you stand taller, more relaxed, more suitable to make all wishes come true.

"World, you are the wish-fulfiller. And I give you the wishes to perform. No longer do I downgrade you. I don't do that anymore. Not even once do I put you down. Now I raise you high. You have a different water mark now. Hail to you, world. Thank you for being. Congratulations. You are the world of my dreams. You are everyone's dreams come true. We make our dreams come true. You are our willing servant. You can only be as we say, and all of us now say you are beautiful."

Heavenletter #4178 Come, Do This Now, May 3, 2012
God said:

When your heart feels hurt, and it does again and again, why must it undermine your honor of yourself? You are truly upset but not truly because someone offended you. You lost confidence in yourself because you based your belief in yourself on what someone else thinks of you. When someone else shows a lack of appreciation for you, you take this as confirmation that you are not worth much. Beloveds, let the whole world think poorly of you, and that does not take anything away from your worth.

If you would take what I say as seriously as you take someone’s remarks, you would feel a lot better about yourself than you presently do. Yet let anyone detract from you, and you take what they say to heart. You take their displeasure with you as proof of unworthiness

Don’t do that anymore. Don’t let anyone else, no matter how dear to you, shove your heart aside. It’s okay if someone doesn’t think highly of you always as you wish. They don’t have to, but you, My beloved, you have to think highly of yourself. Otherwise, you are at the mercy of even strangers.

If you had as much faith in yourself as you have in others’ opinions, you would not fall prey to hurt.

Love others, but do not set your heart by them. Others are not thermometers of your worth. Your worth is inviolable. Will you take to heart what I tell you? I set your worth, and I set your worth high.

Let others mean something to you, but not everything to you. Let their ups and downs not be the merit of you.

You are a wonderful human being. You are doing everything in your power to give good service to Me and the world. You are doing everything you know to incur good will. Beloveds, appreciation and discouragement both mean too much to you.

You do not base your worth on the weather. The weather has its course to take. Yet you tend to base your worth on what someone else may feel at one moment or another.

Your worth is not in question. Your self-belief is. Your confidence in yourself is. Your need for never-ending support is in question.

Be a self-blooming flower. Be a beautiful flower who looks to the sun. If a passerby does not think a flower is beautiful, what does that have to do with the blossoming of the flower? The flower does not look to left or right. The flower looks to the sun, and the flower grows according to the sun. The rain gives the flower water to drink, and the flower’s roots drink deeply of the rain.

If you have not planted your roots firmly in My awareness of you, then start now.

Do not go up and down according to what goes on around you. What does that make you? It makes you susceptible to others’ opinions or even their moods. Others cannot be responsible for how you feel about yourself.

When you were a child, perhaps there was not enough sun or enough rain. That may be so. But now you are grown-up, and the sun shines, and the sun is for your choosing. There is plenty around for you to drink, and there is plenty of reason now why you are to love yourself and not be so dependent upon what others make of you at a given moment.

You may feel that you have devoted your whole life to Me. If you have defined yourself according to others’ assessments, you have not. Beloved, devote yourself to Me, and you won’t make so much of others’ thoughts of you. Others’ thoughts are not to be the making of you. Love Me, and love yourself.

Come, do this now.

Heavenletter #4177 Prosper in Love, May 2, 2012
God said:

Listen to the reverberation of My heart. Hear My heart beat in yours. Rum de dum, rum de dum, goes the beat of Our heart. Established in love, Our heart beats in love.

What will love look like today? What generosity will you proffer to the Universe and the souls within the Universe? What is yours to give, give. Let your heart circulate through the Universe. This is the greatest travel of all. Sight-seeing is good. Heart-giving is greater.

The heart travels fast. The heart is equivalent to the tom-toms that send messages far and wide. Listen to the beat of Our heart as it signals love throughout the Universe.

Instead of thinking, "Love, come to me," or, "Love, give yourself to me," think: "Love, go out and give the Universe love, so that all hearts may feel Great Love, so that love shall cover and permeate the Earth as it is meant to."

There is no gift to equal love. In fact, a gift without love is nothing. The only thing you have to give is love. If you give a million dollars without love, you have given nothing.

What does it mean then to give with love? It means to do as you and I truly want to be done. My Will is for you to prosper in love. There is nothing else to prosper in.

What makes the plants to grow? They grow to the sun in order to create beauty and sustenance to the world. Flowers grow in order to emanate their love. Vegetables grow the same. Corn grows tall and radishes grow short, and the world flourishes.

There is love, and there is more love, and there is a flood of love on Earth. Love is covering the Earth, and yet love gives plenty of breathing room. Love fills, and love frees. That is the thing about love. It doesn't suffocate. It flows. It reaches every crevice. Love goes faster than the speed of light. Love is light. Love is bright light.

No need for you to chase love. Need for you to give it. Let your love seep out. Let your love go out in torrents. Let love go. We say it is your love, and yet you know by now that all love is Mine, and all My love is for you to give away on My behalf, to make life good on Earth, good for one, and good for all.

Love is the multiplier. Love is the overtaker. Love is all, and you are love.

Become familiar with the love that soars within you, and bring it out where it can be seen, can be gloried in. It is intended that the world swim in love, that oohs and ahs of love spill onto the world and revitalize it. Enough has been taken from the world. Now it is time to give. Ultimately, it is to yourself that you give. Love is a magic trick wherein you bless all and find yourself the most blessed. Giving is your surprise party. You were invited to a birthday and, when you got there, you discovered the party was for you. Surprise! And your joy starts the party all over again, until you don't know who you are anymore. In any case, you are not what you thought.

Amazingly, you hosted the party, and you were the honored guest. This is how it is. All love is yours because you give it. The libation is for you. You are the adorer and the adored. There is no one else. There is only the One of Us, the One of All.

Heavenletter #4176 Remember You, May 1, 2012
God said:
When you go to a buffet, you select certain dishes to eat. You cannot take even a sampling from every dish because there are so many. You make choices.

If life is a buffet laid out before you, you cannot choose everything. You have many choices. You cannot be all things to everyone. You cannot burn the midnight candle at both ends.

It is wonderful that you enjoy many things. Rest and quiet are also needs.

With money, you have to choose what to spend it on.

If time is a commodity in life, even though it is an illusion, you have to make choices with your time. You cannot eat up everything in life. This is not meant to restrict you. At the same time, you don't want to slice yourself too thin.

Remember that there is Being as well as doing. There are times to rest on your laurels. There is rest as well as activity. Both have their place. Both are needed. I don't want you to overextend yourself. Even in service to Me, you are to ration yourself. Some of My children have hearts so good and so full of good will, that you may take on more than you can do. You are not to forget about yourself in your desire to serve. You are also My child, and I ask you to take care of yourself as well as others. It is My desire that you flourish.

Yes, it is a fine line between service to others and service to yourself. I don't mean that you need to analyze it all. I mean that it is said that I rested on the seventh day. If I, Who need no rest, sit down with My feet up, why not you? The fact is I never get tired. I don't use up energy. Even though We, you and I, are made from the same tree, you do require pauses, and you do require sleep whereas My energy, I Who AM the Source of Energy am free-wheeling, free-spinning, and do not expend My energy.

It is good of you to get a lot done, yet I ask you to take it easy. Even in activity, I ask you to take it easy. Spin the wheel, and make your choices. True, every person can do more than what he or she is doing, yet it is also true that some do more than they can sustain. And so I ask you to make time and space for yourself. You would take good care of someone else. Now I ask you to take good care of yourself as well.

I do not ask you to give up your service to Me through others. I ask you to care for yourself as well.

Some people have to be reminded to serve others. Some people have to be reminded that they, too, are the children of God and deserve great consideration. I ask you to be considerate of everyone, and everyone includes you.

Life will even itself out, and yet you, yourself, can set a good pace, not too fast and not too slow. You are not a horse that you are run to the ground. You have to graze. That way you can keep riding and taking care of others. Certainly, treat yourself as well as your horse. Certainly, treat yourself as well as your car. You are not expendable, beloveds. You are necessary to My plans.

Take time for exercise and relaxation. Drink water. You are also worthy. Do not overspend. Remember My love for you. In service to Me, remember Me and remember you.

Heavenletter #4175 What Is a Once in-This-Life-Time Experience, April 30, 2012

God said:

Although happiness seems to elude you, you are following it. Cardboard cartons may be strewn, seeming to block your happiness. The cartons topple over. You jump around them or leap over them or fall in the midst of the toppled boxes, yet you get up, and you keep going. Something keeps you hopping even in Silence. Where does the energy you have come from?

Where else but from Me? Who fathered you? Who fostered you? Who brought you to land?

You may complain that I take you away. You object to the illusion called death, and, yet, you squirm about it while you have life on Earth. You object to what you see as loss, and yet you don't necessarily love the life that is yours right now. You want to keep it even though you may object to it. Make up your minds, beloveds.

Life was handed to you, and yet it is not a hand-out. You have to do something with it. I gave you a great gift. Run with it. Take it far. This is a once in this lifetime experience. It is everything, yet it is precious. Clasp it to you. Give life a hand up. Offer it a seat. Treat it well. Think well of it. Before you know it, this life on Earth will be done. Do not say it is over while you are still on the course and your life is still making its mark. Do not let life slip between your fingers.

So, you say that life is not perfect? Nor, in the eyes of the world, are you perfect. What is so bad about imperfect? Look at what you even imperfect can accomplish. Look at what you have done, and, now, accomplish more. Pirouette, and accomplish more.

Take your life out of the mothballs, in case you have been storing it. If you have been frittering life away, hang it in the sunshine and give it a good whirl. Love this life that is running toward you, seems to be running toward you. Certainly, you don't want to chase life away. Don't overlook it. Have fun with it.

Believe it or not, you are gaining mastery over life. You are gaining peace. It may not seem so to you because life keeps upturning the apple cart, but that is life for you. It keeps you guessing and turns you around and blindfolds you. Life has its way with you, its say with you, its day with you. Life takes you on what seems like an obstacle course. Still, it dandles you on its knee. It plays horsie with you. It may tumble you down a hill, and then it will surprise you with a field of clover. Life is one-pointed. Its focus is on giving you a run for your money. All the while, life is showing you your mettle. It may take you for a ride, yet it always shows you the sights. Life is making a man of you, or a woman of you, a child of you, someone who recollects the far or near past and makes something of it. Life is the making of you.

Come out of life alive. You are the runner of this marathon called life. You are what it is for. You have always been the aim of life and the course of life. You have been running the gamut. Even when the gamut may seem like a gauntlet to you, life is a favor given to you.

Say, "Thank you." Say, "Thank you very much, Life." Say, "Life, I have caught up to you. You are mine. I have you by the tail. You may make me what I am, yet I also make you what you are. Life, you are an original, all right. I accept your offer of life, and I run with it, and I thank you for your giving me a chance at it. You gave me a great gift, and we have had a good race together, and the race is still on."

Heavenletter #4174 The Imagined World , April 29, 2012

God said:

How lovely is this imagined world I created. I created imagination. I manifested imagination. The individual you is imagined, imagined down to every last detail. I imagined male and female, and I gave each to the other. I imagined a Garden of Eden which was very like the reality of what was imagined. Imaginations took over, and then there was confusion, and stories were begun, and the stories continue still. There is a bump in the road. There has to be a bump in the road that you pass or jump over. Stories require this. There has to be suspended breath. There is such excitement.

Tension is like a taffy pull. Tension is stretched, and then tension is resolved. The breath is let out, and life continues, and more drama comes out.

My children more than tell a story. They live it. So it seems. Imagination makes anything real. Imagination makes dragons real and all manner of things. The bogeyman is real. Gnomes are real. Anything can be real, rather, anything can seem real so long as it is believed in.

Stars are to wish on. This is a worthy tradition. And the sun is to bask in and to light up Our way. The lode star pulls you like the tides. You have free will, yet free will is tentative. You have many reflexes. Ultimately you choose them, even when you are sure you don't. You are sure that reflexes are foisted on you. Perhaps it is a numbers game, and you are assigned certain reflexes or reaction when you would rather not have them.

Someone or something says, "Dance." And you dance. Someone or something says, "Cry," and you cry. Good will is your will. It comes out of hiding and begins to parade itself across your eyes. From your heart to your eyes prances good will.

The fog is lifting this morning, for you are the sunshine discovering the sunshine of itself. The discoverer is himself what he discovers. He is in the act of discovering that which he has always known. Even in the center of imagination, he knows the Truth, and he plays a game at rediscovering that which was always known but averted. He averted his eyes. You avert your eyes. It is a narrow key hole that you let light in from. These are the odds you set in order to make life interesting.

Yet, how much of this holds your interest, I ask you. You want to know how you came to be. No words will explain it to you. It simply has to dawn on you. One day you simply draw up a shade, and the sun shines on you.

All the stories are made up. You configure them. The stories are like the sand castles you build at the beach and the waves wash away. Who can say that the sand castles ever were really there, for they are washed away now, and sand has merged once again with all the sands of time that lie about on beaches.

How many words does time take up? Can words be measured in time, as the world measures time? How many words per minute can you type? When you know the answer, what do you have then? Where has the answer taken you, and why do you have it? What good is it?

Imagination is a lovely lull in the midst of silence. Silence is the prey you gather around. You gather around silence and the camp fire. Here are two fields of life on Earth - silence on one end and fire on the other. There is a conflagration, and silence and conflagration have a race. And which do you think wins?

Silence of course, for silence just is. No match has to be lit for Silence to be. Love lives Silence.

Heavenletter #4173 Pure Being You Are, April 28, 2012
God said:

Seemingly, one day follows another. Seemingly, there is an eve, and there is the morning after.

In the world of love, there is no before or after. Love is this instant, and love is like an unending string. There is no knot in it. There is no beginning nor is there an end.

From My perspective, there is nothing attached to it either. No clothespins on the line. Nothing hanging there.

Or We can see the string of Eternity as a string of Christmas lights only without flashing. Simply Christmas lights that are always on, and have always been on. There is no departure. There is no entrance. They are not even strung across the world, for there is no world to string them across.

You are on a continuum. There is no time, no space. Only Eternity and Infinity. The Truth is that you are suspended in mid-air. There is no need for a physical cushion because you are cushioned with love. Rather, you are love, and therefore you are the cushion, were there such a thing as a cushion.

If you visualize this string of life as a blip on a screen, there are no highs and there are no lows. It would be straight across.

Of course, lines are seen as going across, yet life is not like that either. Life is neither horizontal nor is it vertical. Life is in all directions. Rather, it is none. Directions, dimensions, those are terms. There are no exact terms for what is termless.

There are no lines that can be seen. There is the ether. There is the Everythingness which is Nothingness. Not even the acorn of the oak tree exists. There are no seeds. There is seedliness. And yet.

Eternity is treeless and leafless and seedless, and, all the while, contains Infinity. There is nothing to see, and there is nothing to hold. If there were, you would behold love.

Life on Earth is so that you can behold love. When you are love, you are pure love. You are pure Beingness, and pure Beingness is simply Being and not holding, nor is it beholding.

Nothingness is not emptiness, although you can look at it that way. Nothingness is Everythingness before it has chosen shape and color. Nothingness or Everythingness is just before vibrancy, although Nothingness contains all the vibrancy ever dreamed of. You are not even a dot on the field of Nothingness. There is not even a field. There is no place to put dots on, and, yet, it is like your finger is poised, yet there are no fingers. There is no finger to point. If you had a finger, there would be nothing to point to anyway.

And yet I say you are the Universe, even as no Universe exists.

I cannot say that you are in a pre-state because the only state is the State of Being, this Pure Beingness that is Pure Love. Remember, there is no before and after. There is no antedate. There are no precursors, and there are no antecedents.

You are Pure Being.

Manifested in a dream, you are human being with all the possibilities and all your imagined encumbrances. You are not really manifested, you understand. You seem to be. You can pinch yourself. Yet, with or without a body, you are Pure Being. You are the Pure Being from which manifestation arises. You assume a role, and you play it. You play it to the hilt.

In Pure Being, there is no movement. You seemingly exist in Creation, however, where activity is the name of the game.

How amazing life is in the dream. How much more amazing is Pure Being, this Pure Light from which My dream called Creation burst forth.

Heavenletter #4172 Sun and Stars, April 27, 2012
God said:

Whatever frustration may be in front of you, you don't have to kowtow to it. You do not have to give up your peace of mind because of a technical difficulty on Earth. Difficulties do not have to get the better of you. Simply take life as it comes, and don't get all fretted about it.

You really know that most difficulties are temporary. The electricity went off? It will come back on. You car stalled? Your car won't always be stalled. It will be running fine again, and you will toddle down the highway again. Your basement flooded? It won't always be flooded. It will be dry again.

These are inconveniences. Will you set yourself up in the frame of mind that inconveniences need not take a toll on you?

Even in terms of the world, you know the difference between inconveniences and troubles. Nevertheless, you let interruptions disturb you, as though they were tragedies. Your world has been disrupted. A train was delayed, and you pace back and forth.

You do not get upset that the sun sets at night, and you have to wait until morning before you see the sun again. You take sunrises and sunsets in your stride. You don't consider daylight and night as obstacles. That you cannot see the stars by day doesn't upset you. You know the stars will come out. You don't rant and rave about these matters. You do not think that these occurrences are the end of the world. In fact, you enjoy both sun and stars and don't mourn the gap of one or the other.

You do not expect the tides to follow your command. You take the tides as they come. The tide comes in, and the tides go out. You don't become discombobulated. Not at all.

When it comes to when your personal life does not follow your plan, you tend to feel as though Mt. Vesuvius has erupted. An interruption in your internet connection will drive you to distraction. All it means is that your connection has been interrupted. It is on pause. In that point of space and time, you are not connected. Make peace with it. It is only a delay. It is not forever. You got along fine for years without it, and now that the internet has become a daily event, you presume that it has no right to go off as if your very existence is at stake. You become insistent that your will be done. Face it, this insistence, this resistance, has to be an ego thing.

Imagine, for example, that the internet is supposed to go off on weekends. Okay, so it's off. And so you take a walk or swim in the ocean. What's so hard about that?

Your life cannot be disconnected. Your life is always. You have life with or without the internet, without your car, without electricity, and so on. Meanwhile, all these conveniences do not compare to the sun and the stars or to the glory of life on Earth.

You are not here on Earth to do penance. Life is not like that. Life is your golden opportunity. It is the star at the top of the Christmas tree. It is for the love of life that you are here. You have a great opportunity before you to make life choices. You can choose to be whatever you want. You can choose to be unhappy amidst plenty, and you can choose to be happy with nothing. You can choose to be content. You can choose to be impatient. What a world I created where you can be satisfied or dissatisfied at will. Come right up. Make your choices, and know that others follow you. They follow your disgruntlement, and they follow your cheeriness. Which is it, beloveds? Which do you choose?

Heavenletter #4170 Wouldn't You Like to Hear God's Voice, April 25, 2012
God said:

I am speaking to you all the time. Hear My Voice. It is in everything. I whisper your name. Your name is Love, and I call you to Me. So, come along. Would you really keep Me waiting?

I am patient, and I can wait. I know not time to wait in. I just AM. I AM sitting still and wondering about all your motion and activity. I know you are on your way to Me. I would hasten you for your sake, for, to be without Me, is not fun. It is intolerable, and yet you tolerate your absenting yourself from closeness with Me. Yet, even as you absent yourself, you are here with Me. You have turned yourself into something you are not, and this is how you displease yourself.

I am ever happy with you. I love you. I loved you the day you were born into the world, for We are friends from before time began. We are the Original. We are Oneness. You have vacated yourself from Our Established Oneness and sought particles. You took a magnifying glass and ventured into the Forest and Jungles of Life. What can life, without awareness of My Presence, be but a forest or jungle, depending upon climate?

And what can you be, without awareness of My Presence, but a lonely escapee from awareness? Enough of that. Come, present yourself to Me. Walk right in. Step right up to Me and say:

"God, here I am. You say I have always been right before you, yet I lagged in awareness. I lag in it still. Give me You. Give me all the awareness of You that You say is mine. Give me it right now.

"Show Yourself to me. Reveal Yourself to me. If, in order for You to be revealed to me, You have to open my heart, then, God, please open my heart.

"God, if You have to, push Your way into my heart so that I will know Your Presence and never let go of my awareness again. Bring my heart to Yours. Can that be hard for You to do?

"Am I so willful that I would absent myself from a Great Kingdom and a Great Presence such as yours? Am I such a fool as to let go of Your hand? Am I?

"Then, God, if I am unable to take Your hand, will You take my hand and put it in Yours? Your hand is so great, Your heart is so great that You can embrace me, squeeze me so that I cannot make a mistake about Our closeness ever again, so that I can never let Your hand go again, so that I can never be out of my awareness of Your Presence. Give me You, God. Give me You right now. Give me entry into Heaven, and never let me be out of Your Kingdom, which, You tell me, is also mine.

"You say I am already there. How can I not know it then? How can I not carry You with me for every second of Earth Life? If You are mine, help me to know that You are mine and that I am Yours.

"You tell me there is no difference, yet I seem to know only difference. I don't experience Oneness with You. How can that be?

"You say that it is I who allows that to be. I want You. I crave You. And yet I do not feel You. I do not always even believe in You, God. Surely, I want to. I want You to be mine, and I want to be Yours. Help me to wake up. Will You do that, God, will You? What is Your answer to me?"

Yes. I say Yes, and now, My beloved, it is for you to say Yes.

Heavenletter #4171 The Kingdom of Heaven, April 26, 2012

God said:

How can you possibly be without Me for one moment? I cannot be without you. I would not be without you, for you are My love. I love you as Myself, for you are Myself. You cannot be anything else. Oneness is Our relationship. Oneness We are. Oneness I AM, and Oneness you are, and, so, it has always been so. I am One. Oneness alone exists. Come now, sit on My lap, as if you were a child. Of course, you ARE a child. You are a child of God. You are Myself who knows it not. Therefore, I sit with you on My lap, and I tell you about Oneness, and so you come closer to Me until you recognize that you are the same Oneness I am. You meet Yourself.

And, as you gain Oneness, you laugh and laugh, and you laugh more. The joke is on you, beloveds. You were in the right place, and yet you wandered. You thought you wandered. You thought you had to. You thought you had to travel, and so you set off on a journey, on a search, on a quest until it is your heart that arrives at your destined destination, right where you have always been, smack in the middle of My heart. In the middle of My heart, you searched for My heart. You were so close, you didn't see. I was right before you, and you didn't see.

In fact, you didn't see yourself, for you are Myself, and, so within you, lies My heart which can only be the Kingdom of Heaven, so, it is fair to say that your heart is the Kingdom of Heaven. There is nothing to add or take away from Heaven. You are complete right now. You are the Entirety of Creation as I speak.

What if you could grasp the totality of what I say? What if you could know Yourself as well as I know Myself? I am you, and you are I. Such a simple equation, yet your mind is boggled. Let's unboggle it now. What prevents you from knowing your True Self right now? It must be ego. Ego has perhaps whispered in your ear that you would lose something by accepting Reality. Yes, you would lose something. By definition, you would lose ego! Ego does not want to be lost. Self-limiting ego wants to overtake you and make you important in the eyes of the world, or even a piece of the world. Ego promises you the sky, and you fall for it, not once, not twice, not thrice but a lot. A lot. The pitch of ego's voice resonates with you. You like the immediacy of what ego offers you.

Hey, what I offer you can be immediate too. In the land of no time, it is immediate, for, in Reality, everything is right now. There is no later. There is no before.

Ego seduces you otherwise. And where does this coward ego come from? It must have been a bit of ego that Eve bit when she bit into the apple. Yes, that must be it. Oh, no, it must have been the whispering snake that hissed and sashayed through the grass. Oh, it was none of those. It must have been you who whispered to yourself: "Importance must be mine. Individual accolades must be mine."

You, in some semblance of justification, decided you had to fight with Me, that your individuality had to win. You wanted to be an entity to be reckoned with. You forget that you were, without ego, already Great.

Come into My heart right now. Right this way. Ego cannot enter here. Only the heart of you can. Your heart already is here with Me, Your innocent heart of love is secured here with Me. It was your mind that wandered off. Come back.

Heavenletter #4169 Thrilling to the Light of God, April 24, 2012
God said:

Hear Me, oh, hear Me. I long to be heard. I long to be understood. Rather, I long for you to understand Me. It is not that I have to be understood. It is you who bears understanding. It is you I want. Let's walk down a lover's lane together, hand in hand, heart in heart. We are long-standing Friends. We have known each other forever. There never was a moment that We did not know each other. We have been around a long time. We have gone around the block together, and We are deep deep friends.

Our hearts call out. "Hear Me. Let's connect."

And if you cannot presently hear Me, well, then, you can speak to Me. I will translate you into God. That means I will translate you into My vibration which needs no words. Our hearts speak in their own language which is the language of love. We don't need words. We need love, and We have it.

I am cultivating the love within you that exists and has never stopped existing. Your memory is short, that's all. You are rife with love, with love so mighty that it is earth-shattering. What do you think is the power of the tides and the mountains and My Will?

You don't stand a chance of veering from Me. You are caught in My net of love, and love will blaze across your heart and mind, and any distance you perceive between Us will be vanquished. You are the rising sun of My heart. There is no ending to Our love nor was there ever a beginning. We are Infinity's song, and I sing it. That means you sing it too, or you hear it even if faintly in the background. You can locate Our love. You can. You can feel Our love bursting through its bonds of time.

Today We are freeing love from any shackles that may have bound it. Love is unbounded, and love is rearing its heart so it can reach everywhere and be seen, be known, be picked up, be favored, shine. Shine on, o love. We are vanquished by love. Love takes over, and We are taken in love, overjoyed in love. We are love brandishing its glory, its glow, its gold.

Our love is golden. Our love is the mightiest force in life. Love is Superman, beloveds, and can knock down any supposed detriments to it. Love wins every time. Love is the champion, the winner, the victorious, the embracer. Yes, let Our hearts be full of love and wrapped in love, and be like stars shining at night and be like the sun shining during the day so that love is known, and love covers the Universe with itself.

What can equal love? Not diamonds, not rubies, for, after all, what do you have when you hold them in your hand? Only what significance you give to them. Everything is a symbol for the bright shining light of love. Nothing comes near to love but love.

And, this love I speak of, is yours. Uncage this love, and let it reach the mountaintops, and let it be sung from the mountaintops, and let love be sung from your heart. Let your love become the consciousness of the Universe. Why not? What else would you really want to be the consciousness of the world? Why would you ever want less than the very best, and the very best is love, love pure and simple, love undaunted, love captured only by more love and more and more, thrilling to the heart and thrilling to the Light of God.

Heavenletter #4168 There Is No Between , April 23, 2012
God said:

Whatever you look at, you are seeing yourself. You are the ocean you look at, and you are the waves, and you are the sky and you are the sand. There is only Oneness, and, yet, you are everything. You are My Everything and Everyone, and, still, We are One.

You are the stars at night, and you are the streetlights. You are the moon, and you are a pot on the stove.

There is nothing you are not, and, yet, Oneness alone is.

That is why you are everything imagined and True Oneness all rolled into One.

You are the traffic, and you are the solitary eagle.

You are the flies and mosquitoes that buzz around.

You are the bees who make honey. You are the caterpillars who change into butterflies. You are man, woman, and child, and you are ascending.

You are the sound of crickets and the TV. You are lips that kiss, and you have a voice that sings and hums as you go about your work.

There is nothing you are not.

You are every wish that ever came true. You are My desires manifested into a between world, a world birthed from Heaven and debated about on Earth. You are a wonder of creation, and you wonder about yourself and what you're up to.

And you are the firmament of love, and you are love taking a chance and brave about it.

You are the sun that rises and the sun that sets.

You are everything, and you are nothing at all.

Your body is a physical representation of a magnificent soul. Whatever the body does or appears like, you are not your body. You are soul. Body is temporary. Soul is always. Body and soul are almost like from two different countries. Your soul is true. Your body is fake.

You are the streams of the river, and you are the bathtub, and you take a bath, and you dry yourself off.

You ponder the state of life you are fantasizing as if you were physically real instead of a thought.

You are a thought that thought itself.

You are a down spout, and you are an elevator going up.

You are many things. Still, you are One.

You are not My shadow. You are My light, and a spotlight is on you.

There is nothing that stands between Us, and We share love. Our love overlaps.

At first you think it is nonsense when I say you are a down spout, and you are an elevator going up, or that you are the bee who makes honey and so on. Yet something about what I say begins to feel right to you.

Beloveds, there is nothing that you are not, and I alone AM. At first this seems like an exaggeration, yet it is the whole Truth.

There is nothing you are not.

Those you love are you.

Those you do not feel love for are you.

There is nothing really that comes between you and another, another who seems like an another and, yet, who is you. You are the other looking at himself but since there is no other, you are looking at you and calling yourself by another name, as if you and the seeming other were not One.

Wherever you look, you are Oneness peering at yourself. Whoever speaks, you are the speaker. Whoever listens, you are the listener. Whoever paints, you are the artist. Whoever makes music, it is you. There is no between. There is no other. There is Oneness. You might as well get used to the idea, for that is the Truth and nothing else is.

Heavenletter #4167 Will You Kindly Reveal the God in Your Heart, April 22, 2012

God said:

I am all for giving, you know that. I prompt you to give. I prompt you to be a giver. Yes, you give to another for the sake of the other, and, yet, you are the true beneficiary. You are the one who gains. All gain, yet you are the one who gains the most. This is the truth about giving.

It is good to give. Even better than giving is where your giving comes from. What I mean is that, in terms of money, the person who gives $5.00 may be giving more than a person who gives $5,000 or $5,000,000. The world will, of course, quite naturally, applaud the giver of the bigger figures, yet, in My book, the one who gives $5.00 may be the one who gives the most.

What matters is how much of yourself you give along with what you give. What matters is what the giving means to you.

This is not to worry over. You can only give as you can give. One of the greatest joys in life is the simple act of giving, to give without attachment, to give even without pride, to give with joy. Pride and joy are not exactly the same.

It matters how you give, beloveds. It matters the gift of your heart that accompanies the gift. It sounds very worldly when I say that it is your attitude that holds court in the simple act of giving in the arena of the world, giving without counting. Giving is not a numbers game.

It is natural to give. If your giving finds itself stilted, your heart has been damaged, and, now, you are undoing the damage. It is not natural to hold back in giving. It is not natural to stint. Beloveds, if you stint, your heart has been damaged. It has been beleaguered. The levee of your heart was hurt, and you added some cement to it, and now your heart, if not hardened, is stiffened. Or, if you are a baseball player, We would say that your right arm isn't working quite right, and so it takes effort to throw. The shoulder of your pitching arm was injured, and now you are having your comeback.

Giving is meant to be effortless.

Giving is not meant to be a strain. You are not meant to give more than you feel able to give. Open your heart in dribs and drabs then, and that is a beginning to the oiling of your heart.

Let Me give to you so that you may know the force of a giving heart. Have gratitude, and your heart will be well-oiled. The more gratitude you feel, the easier is your giving. Then you know you are giving back. Yes, let's make a slogan about giving. "Gratitude, not attitude."

Remove the dam from your heart, your beautiful heart.

A time will come when giving is your prime joy. No longer will there be a logjam in your heart. There will be a flow of love where the giving is easy. It will become harder to withhold love. To hold back would take great restraint, and you will have happily let go of the once reins tied to your heart. You will set your heart free. Oh, how happy your heart will be, free to feel its love, and free to let your heart ride without encumbrance.

Think of it, your heart free to ride! Giddyap, horsie. Giddyap, heart. Fly to Heaven, heart. Bring more God down to Earth. Reveal the God in your heart. Most of all, the God in your heart needs to be revealed to you.

Heavenletter #4166 From the Sea of Imagination, April 21, 2012

God said:

Hello. Let Me introduce yourself to Me, the Me of you. You are really I, yet you disguise yourself as you. And, wonder of wonders, you come to believe in your disguise. You have become fond of your acrylic wigs and pasted-on beards, so to speak, and the expressions on your face. What would you do without this illusion of you? How would you pass the time? What would you pretend then if you stopped pretending?

You, the you you think you are, are quite a cardboard picture of yourself. You have covered Me with embellishments of diverse kinds. You have drawn quite a curriculum vitae of yourself, and you have taken to heart every word of it, no matter the light it puts you in.

You have painted Me as very far away and way too good for you, is that not so? You have fashioned an illusion of Me as you have fashioned an illusion of yourself. You have taken Us both to extremes.

Where there is Oneness, there can be no extreme. No extreme. There can be no otherness. Only in illusion can We who in reality are One seemingly exist as two, both a blur as it happens, a blurred image, out of focus, a camera shot taken from an incorrect setting. The picture you see is not what you really took a picture of. Blurred photo. Blurred image. Out of focus, mis-seen, mis-read, image pasted on image, pasted when there exists, in truth, One, not an image and no images thereafter, but, oh, yes, greatly thankfully yes, the Real Thing.

I am real, and naught else is. Not one thing you are familiar with is true except for Me which is, as it happens, the Truth of you, even though you don't believe it. You have been indoctrinated in down-pedaling yourself.

Right now, as We speak, this is an imaginary conversation We are seeming to have. It can be said that I talk to Myself. There is no else to talk to. And yet what I hear is the reverberation of Myself, and I am happy. I am very happy.

And if, for a while, you act as though you were an entity separate from Me, then so shall you seem to be for a while. We will be a kind of conspiracy, an illusion that the whole extant world seems to endorse, or flaunt, consider important when all is a tempest in a teapot, a barnacle on stone, a creature from the sea of imagination.

And what a great imagination you have. You can only temporarily, of course, push yourself off to the side of the road, as though you were auxiliary while you are totally, truly the One of Me, the One of One. I can't say One of All, because there is no All.

Totality is Oneness. There is naught but Oneness. Oneness alone is, and Oneness is so rife with Fullness and Beauty, and, in your case, full of imagined beings and happenings, a fantasy that is taken as true. Even though it is a story, a wild one at that, it is upheld as true even as Truth is something else to behold.

Of course, Truth cannot really be beheld. It can only be. Truth is. The Truth of Being is I, and I am you, and you are I, and Oneness is thriving, and you are Oneness.

Of course, in the world as it is, you cannot go around saying, "I am God," even though this is the Reality, you understand, don't you?

I am One. And that's the whole story. That is the One Truth, and you, beloved, My beloved Self, do not exist except as Myself.

Heavenletter #4165 God's Chosen One , April 20, 2012
God said:

Listen to your heart, for it is beating within Mine, and My heart beats within yours, so intimate are We. You may feel that you are outside My heart, that you sit outside My heart, that you sit outside My heart as a penitent denied admittance.

Yet you are already immersed in My heart. This is how you play such a trick on yourself. You kid yourself, right and left.

This morning, know in Whose heart you are. Sit within My heart and know Our Oneness. Know the beat of My heart, the beat of yours. Know My breath, your breath. My very heart pumps within yours. My heart sings within yours. My heart stands up and says:

"Here I am. Here I am. I am here. I, Almighty God's heart, am here right where I want to be, where I first emerged from Silence and held court in the world.

"I am God Almighty's heart sitting in your heart of gold. What other throne could God's heart be sitting in? No less than in the golden heart of man where I am held in secret, held in secret from himself.

"I am God's heart sitting in the hearts of all living creatures, yet, I am enthroned in the heart of man, yet, would you believe it, often set aside, as if I were a tourist or a God on parade. Can you believe this?"

If you, man, must bow down, bow down to your heart in which I, God, beat. If you must bow down, bow down to Almighty Life, a fountain which pours ebulliently from My heart of love and picks you up as if under My arm.

Ah, there is no other, beloved. In fact, We say Heart of Love rather than hearts of love because it is One Heart, One Love We speak of, One Love so scrumptious that it is above everything, although there is nothing to be above. There is nothing to compare this One Heart of Ours to, nothing to hold above anything else for I am God Above, and you are God Above. All I am, you are. And what I am not, you are not, and, so, you are sufficient unto yourself.

You may well believe in God. It may be easier for you to believe in Me than it is for you to believe Me when I say, I am One. I say, We are not two but One. I say, We are Oneness Itself in shining brilliance, and you say, "Sure, sure, yeah, yeah, I am brilliance myself." All the while, you feel like an old dulled copper penny, thumb-printed by many thumbs, perhaps picked up off the sidewalk.

Anywhere you are supposedly walking without Me is a diversion, beloveds. It is off-track. It is illusion. It is the illusion of the world, a fallacy carried down by one generation after another, when you are My generation, you, only you, you only the One of Me, God's Chosen One, God's Self combined in an illusion of duplication and multiplication, you the supposed replica of Me, while I am God and God Alone. An image can only reflect in the mirror. Call yourself the image of Me. You are the spitting image of Me, only, I am not physical, and nor are you.

But never mind, We can love as We, even though We are One.

We is One. We is I, God alone with no one to stand above, and no one to stand below, and no one to stand apart. We are One. Feel this Oneness with Me. Feel My happiness, for it is yours, the supposed yours.

Heavenletter #4164 A Favor Has Been Granted You, April 19, 2012
God said:

Beloved, Beloved, you seek and seek. And now is time to accept. Instead of your attention being full-flung on the future, attend to accepting all that has been poured on you today. You are fleet of foot. You are on Earth. You are My treasure, and you have goodness a-plenty. Attend to the field that you reap today.

There is a lot to be said for today. Yesterday is a memory. Tomorrow will arrive but not today. Make a big thing out of today, for today is what you have in your hand only for a blink of an eye. You travel fast in time. Your feet hardly touch ground. Fleeting fleeting is this day, never to come again. Welcome it. Greet it. Love it. This is the day before you. It is more priceless than the greatest jewel. Today is your priceless treasure. Accept it gladly. Warm up to it. Be today's cheerleader. Hurrah for today.

Perhaps today comes in like a lion or a lamb or a monkey. Perhaps it is a pony you ride. In any case, you have today. Perhaps today is like an apple you pick ripe from the top of the tree. Perhaps today you stand on a mountain top and see all the sights from on high. Perhaps there is fog, and you don't see much. Nevertheless, today is a ripe plum to pick. Reach up. Reach the heights of today. Perhaps there are seven mountains and another and another. There are many views to see from.

Perhaps today is a valley from which you look up.

Perhaps today is a plateau you sit on and watch from both above and below.

There is no sitting out today.

Whether you are at work or play, today is your day. Today is like clay you mold. You form it. There is no stamp for today. There is no procedure except to live it and wring every bit of dew from it.

Perhaps today is a board game, and you play it to the hilt.

Perhaps today is a project. You project your project far. Observe your day. Observe it as a movie you watch. See it from a different angle. Change your seat at the theater. See from the lobby. See from the front row. See from the balcony.

Consider today a great favor that has been granted you. See today in a new light, for today is new. Today is like a vitamin. You have to drink it down in order to get the benefit. A vitamin on the shelf is a vitamin on the shelf. It is like a good book on the book shelf. Its value appears as you read the book. Unless you read it, a good book is nothing but paper with words on it. It is like a pancake in the pan. Take the pancake out of the pan and pour maple syrup on it. Savor it. Savor today.

Digest today. Today is not a formula. It is a brand-new day especially for you.

Today is an original. Today is not a panacea. It is a day unfolding before you. You pick up the pieces. You put them together. You make something of your day. The day is yours. No one has the same day. Even if you are a twin, you do not have the same day. Even when you go to the same places together, you are each seeing different sites.

No day is transferrable. Your day is your day and belongs only to you. Today is your puppy, and you take a walk with it. Have a good walk. Make it so.

Heavenletter #4163 All God's Love, April 18, 2012

God said:

You who are reading this want more of Me, and this is just as it is meant to be. You want All of Me. You want Me in every breath. You want Me consciously. That you know you have Me around the clock isn't enough. You want to feel it indelibly. You want to know My Presence always, without fail, not some, not a little, not even a lot, for you want 100% awareness of Me. You want what can be called Total Bliss.

I want you to have it too. I want you to know Me like no one else. I want you to know the love that I give you. I want you to carry the awareness of My love with you every second of your life on Earth.

If you desire this for yourself, and I desire this for you, why, then, don't you have it? Why aren't you tripping over My love and falling into it? What prevents this?

All My love is not out of your reach, yet it is out of your perception. All that is needed is for you to fathom the depth and heights of My propulsion of love. So, then, what prevents your perception of this that all of life receives and is made of? Something intervenes. Something blocks your heart or blocks your vision or blocks this amazing reverberation of My love. You sense it every now and then, and you want to keep it, and yet your sense of it doesn't stay. Then you feel out on a limb.

It is like receiving a great inheritance and having it all before you. And then you can't find it. You may almost think it is better not to have had it, and then you would not feel the loss of it.

Beloveds, I am heaping love upon you every instant of relative life. There is not a millisecond that I withhold My love, and, yet, you consciously experience it not. Only on a rare occasion do you experience the fullness of My love pouring into your heart, beat after beat, waves of My love taking precedence over everything else, waves of My love lifting you up, alighting you in Heaven in your awareness.

You do not know how to attribute these highs when you have them.

You didn't do anything differently. You weren't aware of more of an opening, yet, suddenly, the sun bursts through, and there is no explaining the sunburst of My love.

It cannot be explained. It cannot be described. It can only be.

The fact that you have this always and yet cannot feel it always is disconcerting. There is a party going on, and, somehow, you are unable to attend. You just can't get in. You can be on the outskirts looking in, yet you are unable to dance at the party.

You don't have a key to fit this door, yet every now and then, the door opens by itself. Alas, it closes again. What opens this door that seems not to have a key?

It doesn't come according to your actions any more than it comes from your will.

What wind pushes the door open then? You wonder if you have to deserve My love, and if you are found wanting. Certainly, you want Me. You wonder perhaps if it is that you don't want Me enough?

It is none of these. You deserve constant awareness of My love. My love for you is not dependent upon your behavior. It is not something you have to work for. It is your due. There are no limits to it. All My love is yours. It is meant for you, and I give it. Your firsthand experience with My love is not dependent upon anything because it is all already yours. And yet you do not experience My Great Love on demand or even by wish or by intention. What then prevents you from having this experience you so desire and do not have to earn?

I do not withhold it. I do not withhold it by whim or for any reason.

And, yet, how can it be that you do not have awareness of My love every single moment of the day?

I have told you more than once that there are no limits to you. What, then, is limiting your experience of My love?

If I'm not, and you're not, what then is?

If there is no time, how can it be timing? How can all of My love be yours, and yet you can't pick it up?

Receiving this undeniable love is not of your doing. It is not from your success nor is it from your lack of success. You are not to fault yourself. One thing, beloveds, is to not desire it so much. You don't have to have the experience even of that which is already yours and is meant for you wholly. It will come. In the relative world, you don't have to have it in your hand. Keep desire. Let go of attachment to the desire. Let My love enter your consciousness when it does. Let it surprise you. Let it be your Lodestar, and you will come to have the awareness you seek. You will know Our True Love, and you will know it always. You will know it better than anything you know now.

Heavenletter #4162 Playing in a Field of Flowers, April 17, 2012
God said:
And so, beloveds, you play in a field of flowers, yet you perceive Earth as a mine field. From one view, it is. You can't rely on the world. It shifts in sand constantly. Nevertheless, the world's foundation goes very deep and very high. It is solid. It cannot be shaken. The world's foundation never trembles. It never wavers. It cannot be shaken. The foundation is immutable. The house built in the minds of men is subject to disturbances of various kinds, some earthshaking. Nevertheless, the Earth is built on a secure foundation, an unshakable foundation. You who stand on this foundation can shake all over the place, and, yet, you are not shaken at all.

This is the drama you play with in the world. You think the drama is real and that you can be vanquished, turned upside down, even slain. What is on stage is a finesse of a kind. You outsmart yourself, if you know what I mean. You leave yourself holding the bag even when there is no bag to hold.

It is not possible for you to be skating on thin ice, beloveds. There is no ice. The world you stand on is solid. It is not here today and gone tomorrow. It is always here. And you are always here, the Here I speak of, this Supreme Eternity, this State of Being, this Pure State of Being that takes no prisoners and is Itself free in the Lovely State of Being, a Free State, a State of Simple Being, Being and nothing else pushing its way in.

In Being, you stand with Me. You, the Essence of Being, are the Essence of God. Of the same essence are We made, and into Oneness of Pure Being We blend.

We shall call Ourselves Beauty, Bliss, Joy, Delight, yet We are not experience. We are Isness. I AM Isness, and what I AM, you Are. There is no tangle here. There are no knots. There is Pure Being. No muddy waters. Only clarity. This is the Ocean without waves. This is the Ocean to which there is no shore except the one you imagine and are encouraged to play on and enjoy while you are at it.

This is a little while even though time has nothing to do with it except on the shore. This is nothing at all except that it seems like something, something huge in time and space which are themselves evanescent.

Appearances are not everything. A story pops out from everywhere, it seems, even though there is no everywhere, no everything, no storage place, no things, no clotheslines, no elms to shade the sun, and, yet, you drink water to supply the body with drink and you shade your eyes from the sun with your hand, and you have eyelids to close and to open, as if matter mattered. It does matter on the dimension you live in. It matters very much. Whole sciences are built around it, and universities, nations, and people and families and all sorts of things.

You, who can see in front of you, also have a Greater Vision. You know it as a longing. That Greater Vision is always yours. You see it from a distance vaguely. You hear rumors of it. You can know it is true because of your heart's longing for what is stirred within it. You play on Earth, beloveds, while you are firmly planted in Heaven. You play at being a human being while you are solid in Heaven, while you are Pure Being and flying high, flying high in Stillness.

Heavenletter #4161 You Are Beginning to Wonder, April 16, 2012
God said:

I am not hope. I am Truth. I am far more than hope. I am Love, and you are Love, and love meets in a non-space of Oneness. How happy I am to have met you. I met you first in My dream, and then My dream esplanaded into Truth, and so We stand, you the illustrated Truth of Me. How vast is Our relationship. How vast is Our love that it is the very vapor We exist in, or seem to exist in, yet the fact is: We exist.

It seems quite natural to speak of We, does it not? It is much more natural to say We rather than you and I, or I and you, or anything else at all, until a time in non-time appears where the word I alone says it all, and no counterbalance is needed, or thought to be needed. I am I, and there is no you, and, yet, for as long as it suits you, I shall speak of Myself as We, so you will know that you are included in Me.

It is a wonderful thing to be We, to be embraced in such love that there is pure existence, pure Beingness, just being, just hanging around out of the myth of time, hanging around not even on a corner because there is no space for corners to be in. It cannot even be said that We are floating in the ether together because there is nothing to float in. Only, it can be said that We float in words, and yet words are a temporary convenience. Words will not be needed. We shall be merged in love and, therefore, Oneness. There will not be any direction for Our love to go to because Our love will be complete unto itself.

Love will circle itself, and yet no circle will be marked. No edges, no borders, no boundaries, only the boundlessness of love, the essence of love, love original, love without trappings, love and nothing else but love, nothing to contrast it to, nothing to make of it, nothing to interpret or to draw a picture of, just love, pure love in a state of Being that can only be called love, and yet will have no name, for with Oneness, there is no need of discernment.

Love alone will be. Love will suffice. Love will fill although there will be no need of filling. Fullness is already full. Nothing is missing from love. Love fills. All will be love, and love will know itself without observation, without thought, without appraisal, without description, without drawings. Love will be, and there will be nothing else to be.

This is the state of affairs right now, only your vision is temporarily blocked. You have been blind-sided by the relative world. It speaks to you in a loud voice, in many voices, and it tells you many stories which you believe in deeply. You believe that life in the world is life all-consuming, and you play your part to the hilt.

In order to play your part, you have to believe in it, so you believe in it, not for all you are worth, but for less than you are worth. You block out the Unwritten and focus on the story playing out before your eyes. You play in a scenario, and you think everything is at stake when your foundation is so great, nothing can rattle it. You play you are rattled. You play Make-Believe, and you make yourself believe it. You are a believer of another kind, and, yet, over the horizon, in a distant maze, you are beginning to wonder where I am taking you.

Heavenletter #4160 No One the Lonely, April 15, 2012
God said:

We have an assignation, you and I. Long ago, We made an appointment to meet. You are aware of the appointment, only you have forgotten when and where, yet I have not forgotten.

I will find you where you are, and I know the exact time, and I will be there. You do not need concern about it, because all is taken care of. Perhaps when you least expect it, you will look up. You will know something has happened. Even without sight, you will know that I stand before you which is the same as to say that you appear before Me, that We met at an appointed time, and We met face to face, arm in arm, united in love, brightened in light, overcome by love and light, Our hearts bursting in joy as they become, in perception, one heart perched on a tree of love, of love so tall, so encompassing, that there is nothing else to see, nothing else to know, nothing else to want to know, nothing else around, everything but love relegated to the background or everything but love vanished altogether, never to be found again, never to be disturbed again, nothing to trip over, nothing to look back on, nothing to know but the stirring of love, love supreme, love mounted on a white charger, love leaping, love unto itself, love pure, love vaulting over the Heavens and love charging down the freeway of all hearts, of the One Heart that is without peer.

How there will be rejoicing in Heaven! Of course, naught else will exist but rejoicing, and where rejoicing is is Heaven. All the lands will be filled with love abundant, love surmounting all, no longer recounted obstacles, rather love winning the day like lightning, love in every direction, love pointed to and from the heart, love overtaking itself, love totally full, yet not trafficked, just a serene path of light on which love travels and knows nothing but itself.

You want Heaven, beloveds? This is Heaven. It is right before you. Just come closer. Keep coming closer, and Heaven will assail you. Heaven will swing you around, and your heart will leap into Mine. Your heart will knowingly alight on Mine, and you will repeat the first sound that came from My throat. You will say, "Ah." You will not know anything else to say.

If you still had a vocabulary and saw a need to speak, you would say:

"Thank You, God. Thank You for bringing me to life so that I can think I'm wandering until I find You smack in my heart, as big as life, bigger than life, huger than the sky, infinite as Heaven, eternally Ours. Oh, thank You, God, for restoring Truth to me so that I can let go of a mad fantasy and return to Myself, as if I had never been away, which truly, I have never been. I simply had my eyes closed for a minute, the eyes of My heart sewn shut in disbelief that such golden fortune could truly be mine."

And then you would say more. You would say:

"And now I can see. Now I have stepped up to You and the Palace and to the Heart of All. Oh, to become Oneness. Oh, to be standing tall in Oneness and yet not standing at all, drowning in Oneness, being where there is no dry land, only the Ocean Deep, only to become One with the Ocean, to know magnificence, to know beauty, to know all that there is to know, to know love, to know light, and to know that I am the light You, God, hold high, to bask in Your light, to know it is mine and has always been, to grasp this, to have this awareness overtake me, to stop me in my tracks, to astound me, to make me whole, to make me me and to make me You, You forevermore, You as the only, no one the lonely, only Oneness, leaving me the fact of Heaven, leaving me in the thrall of love and nothing but love, nothing but Oneness, forever branded in love, existing as love and knowing Truth, knowing it once and for all, knowing it for all who do not know it yet, knowing it inviolably, knowing God and knowing God as everyOne."

Heavenletter #4159 From the Sound That Arose , April 14, 2012
God said:

God spoke. God uttered a sound, and from the sound that arose from His throat, the world arose. By God's Voice, the world came into being. God was before Being became strung out from a note from His throat. The world was unmanifest until the world arose and formed horizons to see over and seas to admire and to swim in and mountains to climb and see from. The world was sounded, and hustle bustle arose, and lights called stars went on. Human beings came out of the ether, and animals came out of the woods and found human companionship.

From that initial sound like an Ah that ushered from the joy of God, a Universe burst forth, formed and yet malleable and furling and unfurling and capable of making forms to place upon the world. It was like fast photography where you see the blossoming of a flower in a few seconds, and so, out of Eternity, space and time were born as twins. From the nothingness of everythingness, space and time were written down, and there were trails and there were moments long and short.

All this was perfectly formed. The world did not come from chaos. The world came from peace and a burst of sound. Birds were singing, all kinds of birds, with infinite sounds, and the birds had picked up God's tunes. Although mish-mash, seemingly hodge-podge, everything was God's Voice singing or humming, if you will. God proclaimed Himself. He shouted joy. He shouted, "I AM."

And there you were, spilled upon the Earth, starting from scratch, so it seemed. And so you wandered, looking for a semblance of yourself, and wondering where you are and what you were doing there. How did you get there in this amazing place misnamed a wilderness?

You were like a bird who knew only treetops, and then found yourself digging on the ground. Once swift of wing, gravity came into force, and you could not lift off. You discovered all your appointed senses. Bound to Earth, you were bound to the physical. You forgot you were bound to God's heart. You forgot. The physical became your God. You discovered fire and food. And yet you also discovered art and music. These were great clues for you.

Love made an outcry and seemed to simmer from the depths of Earth, and, yet, love had been poured from Heaven like rainfall, and you started to look up. The sky was a mirror of yourself. It was like you could swim in the sky. It was like you were an acrobat who could go to any heights and swing and sing and get beyond everydayness into extraordinariness. You carried extraordinariness with you. You didn't always know you had carried it with you. Sometimes you thought you had left it behind to fend for itself. You were sad without the heights. You knew something was missing.

It was yourself who was missing. You had lost where you had come from and all that you brought with you.

And so misery appeared and trudged along, and, yet, misery was fallacy, and joy was Truth. You are digging out from fallacy now. You are reaching the ropes of Heaven that will pull you up to Reality. You will so well remember. Truth will no longer be laid by the wayside. You will know the true colors of life, life on Earth, or life anywhere. You will know where you came from, and you will know what you brought, and you will know Who you are, and you will recognize Me as the mirror of the seas that you look into and the sun you look into and the Heart of God you look into and come to accept as your own.

Heavenletter #4158 A Lighter Touch , April 13, 2012
God said:

Sense of humor will stand you in good stead. Taking life seriously does not hold you in good stead. Taking life seriously makes you obsessive, perhaps fanatical. It drives you up a wall. Better to take life with a grain of salt. Better to take life less seriously. Dismantle seriousness. Give yourself freedom.

If life is a rolling sea, what can you do but ride the waves? Let the waves carry you, and keep your balance. Waves are waves, and waves are not the reality of you. I am the Reality of you.

Life on Earth is an excursion. It is a ride at an amusement park. Surely, life on Earth is not the real thing. It is a romp. When it seems tremendously serious, call on your sense of humor to save the day.

Count on the importance of good cheer. Heaviness of heart is not wonderful. Lightness of heart carries you far. Heaviness of heart is a burden. Do not let life feel burdensome.

Lightness of heart is a good reason for you to let go of the past. The past is a heavy load to carry. Best to travel light. Rather than steer an ark, paddle lightly in a canoe made of bark. A canoe will carry you further. Heaviness brings you to task. You don't need what you don't need. Travel light. Let go of heaviness.

A sense of humor is a sense of balance. When you are out of balance, when life hangs heavily on you, call on your sense of humor. Sing a merry tune. Have a lark.

When you go through a hard time, you can look at it differently. Is there a better way to look at difficulty than with a sense of humor?

Life in the world lasts a thrice, yet you see it as permanent. No need to become entrenched in heaviness. Be light of foot. Shimmer and shimmy away heartache in life.

You have fooled yourself anyway. Might as well develop a sense of humor. Might as well develop a lighter touch. Is there something better to do?

Instead of weighing every inch of heartache, let the heartache go. It may not leave instantly, and, yet, you will have given it its walking papers. You will have sanctioned its leaving. You will have given it a hero's goodbye.

Goodbye to woe. Goodbye to endurance. Goodbye to heavy-heartedness. So long to the remnants of heartache. So long to all the dressing-up of wounds and scars. Greet a neutral ground. Sense of humor will show you the way.

One moment your body is alive. The next it drops in a heap. And yet you still are. What a magic trick life is! Let life in the world run its course. You can know that you are on another journey altogether. You are going to get out unscathed. The grease spot of the past's path fades and disappears. Might as well smile at your seriousness. It is better not to take episodes in life so seriously. The joke is on you anyway.

Take others seriously, but not yourself. Discover you have an ego, and yet you can disarm it. A sense of humor will do that. Not even ego cannot withstand a sense of humor. It has to run away. The last thing ego wants is to be laughed at. It will flee and leave you without it. What a freeing thing that is. Say bye-bye to ego. It will disappear in a flash, and you will be well-off without it. Ego weighs you down. Egoless, you fly high. Ego is a heavy-weight. Do you need it for something?

Heavenletter #4157 God Seeks You, April 12, 2012
God said:
To what do I owe the pleasure of your company? You are great pleasure to Me. You are My pleasure. I treated Myself to you. Naturally, I see your True Identity while you don’t. You see a facsimile. You don’t know what you see. You see a fast-shifting image of yourself fluctuating in the breeze. You are on uncertain ground, in world terms. You are spectacularly solid in My terms.

I believe you want My terms. You want to see as I do see. You want to be as I AM. Perhaps you have had enough frou-frou. Perhaps you have played make-believe long enough. You have been playing a game, and you know not what you play. You take it for real life. Therefore, how serious you are about it. You play a high-stakes game. It is only a game. It is only an appearance of a game. You really are in a different league. You really are out of the game of time and space. You are an observer from on high who sees the façade as true and the Reality as a moonlit bespattered dream. What are you doing? Whom do you think you are? You have played far afield, and you hold on to the little figure that you move across the game board as though you were playing Monopoly or one of those board games.

Your surprise feels real. And yet you are surprised time and time again. You walk one road and think you walk a different one. You don’t know what you are doing, and you don’t know Who you are, or you can’t grasp Who you are. You are what you do not grasp. You hold on to a feather and expect it to lift you. You have a different kind of reality than what you hold on to. It is the non-reality of illusion. You play it to the hilt. You rely again and again onto that which is not reliable.

You want life wrapped up in a box, and you want to open it and close it at will. You want to pull the strings on that which has no strings. You want. You want.

I, too, want. I want you to join Me. I want you to know that We are joined at the hip. There are no two ways about it. Despite your fervor, We are one undeniable Oneness that you overlook in your meanderings through time and space. In Reality, you meander through Eternity. You are infinitely Mine. You are so Mine that you do not exist except as a passenger in My heart. You seek for yourself where you already are, and yet you have not yet been able to fathom yourself as Myself. It is a big leap for you, and you may hesitate to leap. You like what you know, and you are askance at what you don’t know. You choose the known, the perceived known, anytime over the Unknown, even though the Unknown is what truly is known. The Unknown holds the answers for you.

You rely on the unreliable, and you don’t rely on the Reliable. You are like a sense addict. You swim in the waters of the senses and call the senses Truth when senses are not the whole sense of your life. Not at all. You are addicted to them. You like to think that the senses are the portals to that which you seek.

Enjoy the senses at the same time as you know that they are not your masters. They are not the whole story by a long shot. The whole story is Now. You are a reporter who has covered up the real story. You like the diversion of drama in life. You seek excitement and ride the roller coaster. Ride in My arms, for I extend them to you.
