HEAVEN #4105 Growing Closer to God, February 20, 2012

God said:

Infinite is My love. Infinite are the ways to express My love. Heavenletters are one way. Life is another. The ways are long-standing, and they are new, the same way that each day is new, and the same way that, each day, you are new. You are always new. Today you have grown since yesterday. You are a testament to growth. Your growth may seem infinitesimal to you, you are so eager for more. You are too close to see your own growth. From Heaven, it is easy to see. It is My delight to see your growth.

You grow closer to Me. I cannot be closer to you than I already am. It is you who comes closer in your awareness. A millimeter is as good as a mile. Progress is progress. Growth is growth. You are a vine that winds its way closer to Me.

That you have consciously started growing toward Me is a great step. Your intention is powerful, as is Mine. And what do I desire more than your reaching Me? By whatever path, you come. Regardless of whatever detours, you come. There is no withstanding your reaching Me. There is no withstanding reaching Me because We share a mutual desire. I am steadfast in My desire for you to climb right up here to Me. Your desire may fluctuate. Nevertheless, once your desire has been started, your arrival is inevitable.

Every day you are gaining. Every day. Whatever you may perceive or not, you are gaining.

I will tell you that not a day of yours is wasted. Seeming plateaus also serve their purpose. Once on the path to Me, try as you may, you can't get off the path to Me. Anyway, it is all rigged. You are coming to Me in any case. I decided this long ago. You can't swim against the tide, not forever, can you.

Our hearts are going to entwine. They already are, and, yet, you may be the last to know! Never mind. It doesn't matter. Our Oneness and your awareness of Our Oneness are both assured. You can teeter, you can totter, yet you are being swept up by love, and love will have its say, and love, wherever it seems to come from, is yours. Your love and My love are strong magnets. Love is mightier than steel. There is no force like that of love. You cannot resist it. Love is the tide of life, and it makes itself known.

All love leads to Me, and all love is from Me. I love Myself. You are learning to love yourself. You are lifting your eyes up. The closer you come to Me, the closer you come to yourself. It is amazing that you haven't known this. You have been walking on the path of love without realization of where you are, who you are, what you amount to. You have had an incredible disregard of yourself. An amazing disregard. And now you are opening your eyes to take another look at what I created when I created you. Take another look. Peer into My eyes, and see yourself.

You have been a stranger to yourself, and, in many cases, an unfriendly stranger. You have seem to have wanted to downplay yourself. You can't do that much longer. It is ordained that you will see Our similitude, and that I will hold your arm high and declare you the winner of this sparring you have enacted with yourself. You can't lose, beloveds. No way you can lose. Surrender your old thoughts. Surrender anything and surrender everything that may hold you back. Give up. Concede. We are One another.

HEAVEN #4104 Imagine That, February 19, 2012
God said:

Beautiful Stars on Earth, harken to Me as I tell you how beautiful you are and how much you stir My heart.

Everything you might say to Me, I say to you, and I repeat that We live in Oneness. I am One with you, and you are One with Me. I am you, and you are I. We are a mixed bag of one trick, you might say.

There are no tricks here. From the vantage of Heaven, all is simple, and all is clear. From the vantage of Earth, all is a scramble. No wonder I am called God, and you are not called God. I live in peace. I live without upset while you have scrimmages all over the place. That is precisely because you live in the world. That is, you are aware of living in the world and not so aware of your sojourn in Heaven. Although you have one foot on Earth and another foot in Heaven, you only dream or aspire one foot in Heaven. You forget your other foot actually is in Heaven. You forget what is truly solid, and you run about on the Earth that you imagine is solid.

What truly exists, you don't see. You do see the form and shape of Earth and all the play upon it. You look through a keyhole, beloveds, and you think you see all there is. What you don't see is the Truth of Existence.

You are based on Earth, and, yet, your true foundation is in Heaven. The fact is there is nothing else but Heaven! Earth, as dear as it is, is flimflam. It is a B movie. Sometimes it is the Best Movie of the Year. Sometimes it is Academy Award. Sometimes. And now, dear friends, we are going to make only Academy Award movies. All of life is going to become worthwhile in deed and in awareness. We are going to have a beautiful run of movies, spectacular movies, all a romance of one kind or another.

Dreams are going to come true on Earth. Love takes its rightful place on Earth, and you become Kings and Queens. You are nobility. You are Heaven nobility. You have always been so and have not seen.

Now you will see. You will see what love is. You will see the love you are. You will dispense with anything that is not love. When you dispense with all that is not love, there will be only love. You will see love reflected in the lake you look into. You will see that you are the face of love, the heart of love, a Being of Love. You will look into the mirror of a lake, and you will see that I am you, and you are I. There will be nothing else to look at.

Right now there isn't anything but theater on Earth, but you are very much into circumstances and all the periphery. You think you swim in a tiny fragment of Earth when, in fact, you occupy Heaven. You and Heaven are One. I am One with Heaven, and so must you be.

Tell Me, beloveds, is there anything more than that to desire? When you melt into Oneness, what else is left to desire? While on Earth, you will still desire food, and love will supply it. You will still want fiction, and you will have it. You will have story after story, and you will know that you are playing a part in a story. Stories will be more like e-books that you read. The life you live will be more like a story you read. You will turn the pages of your life, and you will not lament. You will easily pick up another story to read, and you will see it played out on the screen of life. You will know you are in a theater, and you know you will leave it, even though the theater itself is imagined.

Imagine that.

HEAVEN #4103 In the Consciousness of Heaven, February 18, 2012

God said:

Naturally, as human beings, you desire life to go according to your desires. In your heart, you desire your loved ones to live forever even as you know this is not how it is on Earth. This is how it is in Heaven.

While you are on Earth, at the same time as you desire, you let go. You let go of your desires. They are not desires of steel.

On Earth, nothing has to hinge on results, one way or another. One does not have to get all the Christmas gifts one desires. Be glad with what is and glad that you express yourself to Me. I am glad too. There is nothing wrong with your desiring that loved ones live long.

Do not think that I take desires lightly. I do not play eeny meeny miney mo with lives. It is not that I make every decision at an express moment. Consider that there is a train in motion. It is made of many cars. The train started long ago. The direction has been set. At the same time, a direction can be unset. One thought of Mine spreads across the Universe. It is not even a thought of Mine. It is not that I decide everything on its merits. I do not think: Jim deserves to live or Jim deserves to die. It is not a question of deserving.

From the vantage of a human being, you cannot possibly know the ins and outs of what transpires on Earth. You can know that all is as it is. You interpret events and outcomes as favorable or unfavorable. Of course, what transpires on Earth is very important to you, and, yet, it doesn't matter. Matter is only energy, and energy is never lost. You find momentous, this game played on the field of life.

My love for you is not dependent upon what happens here or what happens there. This does not mean that I am an indifferent God. I do not pick and choose so much as you may have thought. Events are written and events are not written. I do not think through every set of events. From the human point of view, there is loss and there is gain, and heartache can accompany either loss or gain, is that not so?

In an extant world where nothing really happens, where all is illusion, there is really no winning nor is there losing.

I am a good God. I am not a bad God. I do not go up and down in mood or in thought. I am not soft-hearted nor am I hard-hearted. I do not have predilections. I am not biased. One day may go the way you want. Another day may not. I have not changed My mind about you. You are My beloved every day.

Your body is on Earth. Your individuality and your attachments are Earth matters. There is a field of energy you play in. Naturally, you take it all seriously. I take you seriously, and yet the play on Earth plays out. It is not lotto as to who lives today and who leaves his body tomorrow.

You have to decide what is happily ever after. Within the illusion of time and space, so much goes on, and there is so much bumping into this or that, and so much happening all at once. There is holding and withholding. To you, life in the world is like a teeter-totter. It goes up, it goes down, seemingly by chance. Life was written at the same time as it is spontaneous.

You, as you know yourself, are caught up in time and space. In the consciousness of Heaven, there is Eternity and Infinity, quite a different review.

HEAVEN #4102 The Rules of the Game, February 17, 2012

God said:

Be sure that you remind yourself that nothing in the world is as important as it seems to be to you. Let go of a sense of importance. Let go of your sense of importance, not only of yourself, but of what goes on around you. It is all fleeting. Today there is one challenge. Tomorrow there is another. Challenges are part of regular life in the world. Are you going to light a fire under every one of them?

You will run out of breath if you think every difficulty that arises is yours to solve. Some difficulties have to be passed by. For some difficulties, you have to say to yourself: "I will just let this finish its run."

There are those matters that are your responsibility, and there are those matters which are not your responsibility.

In one sense you are responsible to everyone for everything. This is true. At the same time, not everything is your business. If your business is Sears, you don't tell Penny's what to do.

If you are a customer of a certain store, of course, you have your likes and dislikes. That is fine. How the store runs its business is up to the company and not you. You may like to vent to Sears, for example, but why? Save your energy. Move on. Maybe you will like Penny's better. Or maybe you won't.

What is your place, dear ones? Are you the lawmaker of the world?

In the world, there are matters you have to let go of. Right yourself, if you must, yet let go about righting others. Of course, you're right. From your point of view, you are right. As right as you may be, what is yours to decide and what isn't?

The government of a country is meant to be yours to govern. A government is meant to represent you and not itself. You have your voice.

When it comes to a private enterprise, decisions are not yours to make. If you don't like the way a private enterprise is run, it is your decision to stay or to leave. Divine right is not yours when it comes to an enterprise that is not your bailiwick. Of course, you have your opinions, and yet you do not have to go on and on to declare your opinions. Support or don't support, but do not haggle.

If you do not like a store's offerings, you don't have to shop there. You can go to another store. In life, children of My heart, you are free to leave one store for another. Release yourself from dissatisfaction. This is also true of a company where you work. Of course, they could do things differently, yet, how they do things is their decision. They invested themselves in the company before you joined them.

Of course, it is well understood that complaining means you also care. You would not complain if you didn't care. And, yet, when you care, what you must do is rise above your complaints. Do you want to help or complain? Frequenting a store, for example, is not a marriage. You don't have to stay there.

When you play baseball, you don't try to change the ground rules. When you play baseball, you have tacitly accepted how the game is played. If you don't like how baseball is played, you can try basketball. You can try bowling. You can try reading a book.

You are free to find where you like to be and what game you like to play, yet the rules of the game are not your decision to make.

HEAVEN #4101 To Stay Afloat in the Ocean , February 16, 2012

God said:

Everyone does not see eye to eye. Everyone sees through his or her own eyes. And very different things may be seen.

At the same time, everyone carries responsibility for what he sees and how he is seen.

There are understandings and misunderstandings. Everyone intends well. Everyone thinks what he is doing is right or called-for. And no one wants to be interfered with.

A teacher at school may adore a certain naughty student, let's say, and, yet, if that student makes a certain kind of smart remark, and the teacher says nothing, other students will take that as a go-ahead to make their own smart remarks. The teacher has a responsibility that the students do not at first have.

No one I know likes to be corrected, rightly or wrongly. Every one of My children desires freedom, and many do not know the difference between freedom and license. Is license the right word? Everyone is free to say what he likes at the same time you had better know where and when. Here, but not there. There, but not here. License would say that you can say anything you want anywhere any time. One who takes license may not know the difference between a tea party and a camp-out. Words may be appropriate in one context and not in another.

One who objects to being corrected may also be adamant about correcting another.

A lot does come down to responsibility. Of course, it is best to be responsible for yourself. A responsible person knows when and where and how. A responsible person has the freedom to know when and where to keep thoughts to himself.

Everyone makes mistakes. Schoolchildren make mistakes. Teachers make mistakes. School administration makes mistakes. Unlikely is there perfect agreement. Perhaps in theory, yet not in practice.

Let Us forgive others their mistakes, and let Us forgive ourselves for our own mistakes. Let Us even forgive ourselves for judging others. Let Us let go of the past. How many times have I said that? And how many have listened and followed that? Certainly, everyone has tried.

I tell you that you are perfect. Only in the world are you imperfect. Concede to this, and you won't be dismayed so when someone disagrees with you.

Take it easy when you correct another, and take it easy when you are corrected. Grant yourself some leeway, and grant leeway to others as well.

We come back to again and again that there are no others. It is yourself you defend from yourself. It is yourself you approach. It is yourself you favor or disfavor. There is such a thing as how you conduct yourself. Manners in one country may be opposite to manners in another, and this is true for individuals as well. In one house, life is conducted a certain way. In another house, life is conducted in a different way.

There is room for all, and differences, when seen from a longer view, matter not at all.

In all cases, be kind. Be kind as you can be. And remember to be kind to yourself.

Everyone in the world is scrambling to stay afloat. Help others, and help yourself. The best way to stay afloat in the ocean is to lie back and relax. Is that not so? In life, then, lean back and don't make so much of what goes on. Tomorrow something else will go on. There is nothing to get into a fuss over, is there, is there really?

HEAVEN #4100 Feelings and Logic, February 15, 2012

God said:

Your feelings are precious. I would like your feelings to be exalted high.

Too often, in the world, feelings are not counted for much. Feelings are a dime a dozen. There are so many feelings and so many who have them, yet feelings are gold. They are diamonds. Feelings have been discounted, as if they were of no import. They are valuable. They are like thermometers that tell you when there is a fever.

Honoring feelings does not mean to kowtow to anyone. It means to be considerate. Feelings are not to be trampled on. Feelings have to be listened to. There is no right or wrong when it comes to feelings. Feelings are.

In a way, feelings rule the world. Logic may be said to rule the world, yet it is feelings that rule the world. First the feelings, then logic to support the feelings.

There is no logic in war. How can war be logical? And yet logic is given as a reason to choose war. Yes, of course, feelings make My children defensive. In Heaven, there is no defense for war. On rustic Earth, it is said that the other party caused it.

There are two levels of existence. Earth says it is honorable to fight. Heaven would say: "There is another way to be found. Start early."

Of course, long before war is contemplated, feelings needed to be addressed.

And yet, when families are often at war, what chance do nations have?

To care about another's feelings is not backing down. What are you backing down from anyway? To negotiate peace is backing down from war. What can possibly be honorable about war? Is ego honor? Do back down from war. This carries honor with it.

Your feelings are important, and others' feelings are important too.

Sometimes you don't even know what your feelings are. You don't know what your plaints are. You may point to this and that, and yet you may have skirted the real issues. You may not be conscious of them.

Everyone says that peace is better than war. Yet, if everyone truly felt that way, how could there be wars? Yet there are hard feelings. Feelings have to be dealt with before they erupt into war. Cannot peace be valued as much as war? Cannot peace be declared instead of war?

There is too much pointing to the other guy. This holds true for nations, and it holds true for individuals.

Peace is better than war. False peace is not peace.

Nations are equal under God. Think of what that means. I do not support war. I do not engage in it. Both parties have truth on their side, and both parties have falsehood on their side. There is a lot of kidding going on in the world.

No one would do something mistaken willingly, so they fool themselves and find intelligent support for engaging in what is foolhardy.

One nation feels mightier than another. Like people, some nations look for trouble. Their fists are up, ready to settle an issue with their fists. What else is war but that? They are like schoolboys because they are not going to allow anyone to get the better of them.

Of course, it is known that might does not make right, and yet might gives battle a good try. Funny how might likes to feel superior. How did fighting get to be so popular on Earth, as if it were a good thing, a sporting thing, a necessary thing? How do things get so far that there seems to be no alternative to war?

Be honest with your answer.

HEAVEN #4099 Concede. Surrender. Love., February 14, 2012

God said:

Have We talked about love enough? Do you think We are finished? Do you think everything about love has been said and there is no more to say about it?

On the contrary, I am of the opinion that there is nothing else to talk about! Whatever a topic may be, there is love to be found within it.

Whatever a writer writes, he writes about love. Even when what is written is caustic or undermining, the writer has great love in order to write it.

Let Us call Love then Energy. The amount of Love Energy in the world is mind-boggling. In fact, there is nothing else in the world but energy, and all energy is love. Even fury comes from love. Without love, the one who is furious would not be furious. The one who is furious let someone else's thoughtlessness or difference of opinion or even aggression cut across his love and is now fit to be tied.

I suppose, like toothpaste, We could say that Love Energy gets squeezed and the lid pops off. It is a law of physics that energy has to go somewhere. And when someone is angry, it can be said that the one with anger popped his lid.

I believe physics has one basic formula for energy under which all energy arises. Different shapes and volumes of energy, yet energy is energy, and I am calling that oneness of energy love. What can Oneness be but the energy of love?

Science does not use the word love to explain its theory. I don't have a theory, you understand. I have love. I AM love, and so are you.

The common basis of flowers, trees, tigers and puppies, and all varieties of human beings is love. There really is nothing more to be said. Energy moves, and love moves. Molecules and atoms must be lovers. Weeds and roses. All love is of the Self. Within everything you see, large and small, love occupies it. The selfsame growing power of love resides within you.

Beloveds, you have not yet burst through the surface. You have no idea as yet of how much love you are made of and contain. Of course, love cannot be contained. That's what We've been saying. Love has to burst out. It cannot be kept low key. Within you is a fountain of energy, and, in whatever language, its name is love. Every language has a word or two for love. Denial or denigration of love is on its way out.

The world is preparing for an outburst of love such as I have dreamed of. I have long said, "Let there be light." Light is also love, and I have long said:

"Let there be love. Let there be love for all. Let there be pure love for and from all. Let love shine like the sun. Let love be the commerce of the Universe. Let love be. Let love not be trampled not even once more. Let love reign.

"Let babies be recognized as the love they are. Let teenagers be recognized for the love they are. Let parents be recognized as the love they are. Let old people be recognized for the love they are. Let you, who reads this, recognize the love you are and so emanate love until all the world is bathed in love, and the world soars with love, reaching the Highest Heaven effortlessly. Love is a shoe-in.

"I have ordained you as an ambassador of love, and there is nothing that can stop love from taking over the whole world. Concede. Surrender. Love."

HEAVEN #4098 This Is the Truth, February 13, 2012

God said:

Are you feeling subdued today?

That is fine. You don't have to be elated every day. Your happiness does not always have to be escalated. If it were, you would be at a pitch of excitement that you could not endure. The relative world cannot sustain you. Nothing in the relative can sustain you for long.

Enter that quiet stream within you. It sustains you no matter what the surface is up to. It is nice here. It always is. There is a Do Not Disturb sign here that keeps noise away.

The underlying Silence of Heaven buoys you. It is as if you cannot hear the roaring of the waves. You are in a deeper place where your heart can rest. Rather than riding the furrows of the waves, you are buoyed by the depth of the waters. You are deep into the majesty of life whether it is on Earth or in Heaven. Actually, it is always Heaven. In Truth, you have chosen the armoire of Heaven over the soapbox of Earth.

Heaven is not an escape. It is your very foundation. In Heaven, you do not flounder. Heaven is your very substance. Heaven is not frivolous. It is not a departure from life. It is not a detour. It is your very sustenance. It is Reality.

It is the world that is an outing. It is a field trip. It is an exploration. It is imagined.

Heaven is real. It is where you are from. It is where I abide, and where you abide with Me. Heaven goes with you. You take it with you. Heaven is always here for you, right at your fingertips, as it were, right at your toes, right where your feet may be. No matter where you are in space and time, you are infinitely in Heaven with Me.

Wherever I am is Heaven, and you are with Me.

If you consciously want entry into Heaven, there are no doormen, no bodyguards. There really is no one who checks your entry. How could there be because you never left. But, let Us say that there is a doorman and he asks you for your identification. Then I, God, say to the doorman: "She is with Me. He is with Me. I vouch for them." Do you think I would do less?

If you are seeking love, I am It. Heaven is the gas station where you fill up on love. You are never disconnected from the pump. You are always in My heart. If you think otherwise, it is because you have been too busy running off here and there, so busy skipping across the surface of life.

Consider Me a place to go to where you meet yourself and bless the world.

Come find Me and bless the world today. Take a break from furor and enter Silence and Peace with Me. Enter consciously. We are in an eternal embrace, and I never let you go. Of course, you never want to leave. You cannot. The Power of Love is too great.

And yet you imagine that you run off and play on Earth. You play with a frenzy. You often call it work rather than play. No doubt you take it seriously. Take Heaven seriously. To take Heaven seriously means to have the time of your life. It is the best time. It is where happiness lies without departure. There is no fallibility. There is no stepping down from or going off the height of Heaven. Here We are, for you and I are One. Not just sometimes. Always. Infinitely. Eternally. This is the Truth.

HEAVEN #4097 A Palace of Hearts, February 12, 2012

God said:

If you would accept that you are loved - if ten percent of the people on Earth would accept that they are loved -- all the troubles of the world would disappear in an instant. Nothing would be able to stand up against the power of such love. I can hear the hum of all that love now, and Earth would instantly rise to Heaven. Earth would be rocked to its very foundation, and rise like love. Love is the most powerful arrow you carry in your quiver. You have forgotten.

Notice that I said if you would accept that you are loved. I didn't say if you could accept. You do have a choice. It is your choice. It was your choice to adopt the idea that love is a rare quantity. It was your choice to accept that you had to fend for yourself in a world of woe, that you had to protect yourself, defend yourself, and so you built a moat around the castle of your heart, a moat of coolness, a moat of wariness.

And, like the world, you bantered about details, and put details and facts and laws and emotions before the Greatness of Love itself. Love often came last. Everything else had to be considered first. You forgot that love supersedes all the arguments you placed before it. You made love come last in the scheme of things and felt vindicated.

Let love come first. Let love beat all. Love will win any day. The one who gives love is the winner. He wins the day. He wins love. He steps out of the fray and gives love, and he comes to know love from the depth of his heart.

Love is the cushion of life. It is a cradle, and within that cradle, everyone is nourished. Within that cradle, love is not taken away. It is not denied. It is not scolded. Let love be for everyone, given and received. Let love be honored. And when you are honored and when you give honor, wherever you are becomes a Palace of Hearts.

What if teachers loved and made it easy for their classes to love? What if schools were schools for love? What if love were a daily occurrence at school? If everyone felt loved, love would be empowered, and everyone would give love. It would be easy to give love. There would be love of learning and love of giving, and all would be love.

Life can be like this in the world. It will be this. What is going to be will be, and, yet, why wait? What are you waiting for? Are you waiting for someone else? Tarry no longer. The time for love is now. Love is dawning right now. Pull up the shades on the window of your heart and join in the march of love.

There are rays of love from Heaven. That is the golden ladder you climb. As you climb, you will see that the whole populace of the world is following you. Follow the leader. The leader in love is you. The leader in love is your heart. All depends upon your heart. I depend upon your heart to restore the world to its rightful place. I look to you. I look to you as the savior of your own heart.

There is no heart but Mine, and I have entrusted My heart to yours. Rally with Me, and We will walk down the lane of Heaven as One, surrounded by love and beauty, fostered by the love in beating hearts of all.

It is a little thing to love really. A big thing has been made of a little thing. A big thing has been made of it because reasons were given to withhold it. Reason has no reason. Love is the reason for everything. Love is all. When will this become common knowledge and become the lay of the land? I am asking you. I have been waiting for you. I think you have been waiting for Me. We do this together. Be My angels. Let Us be a band of angels. Let Us forfeit greed and suffering. Let Us give them up. Let Us choose love instead. There is no other choice really. This is so plain to see, and, yet, it has been ignored. A blind eye has been turned toward love as if everything else had to precede it, as though there were a law that required you to prove yourself worthy of love before you could give it or get it.

The world has been backward, and now, because of you, the world is righting itself.

HEAVEN #4096 The Petals of Your Heart, February 11, 2012

God said:

Your heart is intended to open continually. There is no graduation day when it comes to the human heart. The human heart is an ever-blossoming flower. Open and open and open the petals of your heart. This is an assignment I give to you.

You may have tightened your heart and tightened it. You forgot that your heart was for giving. You probably thought that your heart was for getting. You may even have concluded that your heart was for being hurt, and, therefore, you did everything to keep your heart buried and safe.

If you want to remove hurt from your heart, the secret is in giving your heart away. Your heart doesn't really belong to you. Nothing really belongs to you, the individual you that you imagine you know so well.

If your heart is Mine, Whose heart is it then? I have appointed you caretaker of your heart which is Mine. Take good care of the beautiful heart of Mine that resides in you.

There is no you anyway. The individual you that you believe you are is an illusion. I AM the Reality. You share My heart. I give you all My love. I do not give it to you for hoarding. I give it to you so you may give My heart to a world that too often has been impoverished. I have given you a beautiful diamond, and I tell you:

"Don't reserve that diamond by keeping it in a vault. Absolutely not in a cold-storage vault. You can't keep My heart by sequestering it. The only way to keep My heart big and flourishing is to give it away. You can give it silently, and yet My heart will be heard. Just give it.

"You are not intended to be only a reactor to love. You are not to pawn My love in your heart. My heart is within yours so that you can give it away. I do not say to give yourself away randomly. I say to give your heart, to fling it, to fling love out like a giant sun and let it travel where it will. Love has its own course to take. Certainly, you are not to block love for reasons of safety or anything like that. Your heart is not meant to wait for certain conditions before it goes forth. Under all conditions, your heart is to go forth. Send your heart out like a valiant explorer dedicated to fulfilling Me."

Do I not give you a lovely assignment? I charge you with giving out My love all over, to the galaxies beyond your galaxy, to every heart wherever it may be. Every single heart is within range. I am charging you with giving happiness, and there is no happiness like the giving of love.

Oh, yes, the material world grants you some happiness. Happiness is good. The greatest happiness, however, is your giving love. Just give love without a prior agreement. Just give love, for love is what you are on Earth for.

You are a learner of love. Call Earth a School for Love. Earth life has not always made it easy to give your love. Earth life may have told you to sequester your love, to hide it in order to keep your heart safe.

Now I tell you to give your love away, for there is always more where your love comes from. Love gets spent yet never used up. Love is for the giving, and I ask you to give all of your love away. Do it for Me.

HEAVEN #4095 Where Else Can Love Exist, February 10, 2012

God said:

When an archer shoots an arrow, he has a target in mind. He doesn't always reach his target, yet he always has a target.

This is what I ask you to do, to have a target in mind in terms of your life. What do you want to reach? Where are you going?

At the head of your list is to love, that whatever you do, wherever you go, that you go with love, and, that whatever you give, you give with love. Desire no less from yourself. Have that intention. You don't have to put signs up such as: "Remember to love today." Of course, you may, yet the important thing is to set the intention to be a lover of life and mankind. If you miss, you do not penalize yourself. Remember, some targets you will miss here and there, and yet, with experience, you become a greater archer. The desire and the intention are key. Perfection in the world is not.

When your intention is love, you are prevented from many things. You will not be able to enact spite, for example. Granted, you might think of it, and yet you won't enact it. You know better. Anger, hate, and fear will dwindle. So much the better, for you were made for love, and that is the target you go for.

Is it possible that loving is a habit as any other? Is it possible that negativity, which you may have practiced so well, is also a habit? It is probable that somewhere along the line you set a goal to retaliate in the world, and so you became a reactor rather than an enactor. Is it possible that you have been good at reacting? That you have been quick at the draw, stalwart to the end, dedicated to getting even or some such?

You have wanted to make a statement in the world. Everyone wants that, yet you may have desired a statement that says: "No one gets the better of me." And, so, in this way, everyone gets the better of you because, on their command, you make them the ruler of you and you dance to their tune. You are not meant to be a puppet. You are meant to be a real-live giver of love, or, at least, not a reactor.

Whatever you do, wherever you are and wherever you go, you want love to be at your basis. Of course, that is the truth. Love is your very foundation. Anything else is not. Therefore, you set your direction in the direction of love. You not only are love, but you set yourself in the direction of love.

You have named your target. You have named it Love. And, now, you are claiming love. You keep your eye on it. You have marked Love on the map of your life. You know where you are going.

Fortunate is the one who can choose his life and not fall into it by default. Yet, if you find yourself in a situation that you do not love, move toward your target which is love. You can love anyway. You can love yourself enough to enjoy and pass on some love along the way.

You will grow toward giving love more than you think about getting what you want. You become greater before you know it, more in the direction of giving rather than getting. You know that getting is short-lived. As you get the hang of it, of itself, your giving fosters the love in your heart, and so you have more love in your heart. Where else can love exist but in the heart?

HEAVEN #4094 Love and Release, February 9, 2012

God said:

From the corridors of your heart, love engages. Love flows beautifully, naturally, and only starts and stops when there is blockage to it. What can a blockage be? What can interrupt love other than an interference from the mind?

Love is not meant to be like putting your finger on a hot stove. You are not meant to hurt yourself when you give love. Your love unrequited is not to be interrupted as a reprimand to your love. You misunderstood what happened. You told yourself an incorrect story. You told yourself to be careful when you discovered that your love is not always valued. You bought that story very quickly. You didn't even have to know words in order to grasp that story. "Be careful with love," was what you adopted. "Watch out to whom and where and when you give love from your heart."

You took love as a personal thing. You took someone else's ability or inability to give out love at a particular time and place as an affront to you. Personal love is one thing. Love is another.

A young child has a teddy bear. That one teddy bear is his. He loves that teddy bear. He has to have that teddy bear. No other will do.

Is this not how personal love is in the world? No other love will do but the one you took as your own and nobody else's. When someone has not focused his or her love on you, be it mother or father, sister or brother, playmate and so on, you have drawn back your love, frozen it somewhat, ordered your love to turn itself into disappointment or a demerit on you. You tend to confuse your love with someone else's.

You can send out love that is not personal. You can send out love from afar. You won't snuggle up to someone who may not want to snuggle up with you, yet there is far more to love than physical presence. Your love depends on you and not on anyone else.

I am not suggesting that you carry a torch for someone who doesn't want your torch of love. I am suggesting that you not turn the object of your once-held love into resentment or disagreeableness. Love alights where it alights and, sometimes, even in the sunlight of your love, another's love has flown. Still, stay in love, not in a stranglehold of love, but love like a nice star in the sky. Send love. Truly, what else is there to send? Just your love. Not professions of your love but love itself, love that naturally is in your heart to give when you do not claim ownership.

Sometimes when what you determine as a full share of love due you is not given to you, you become angry or even vengeful. Love does not make demands. You say you love, and yet you stamp your foot when your picture of personal love does not become true or stay true. Take your foot off the pedal, beloveds. Be easy with love. Let another's affection for you be or not be. What is is. You cannot whip into existence what is not.

Let your hold on love go. You do not grab love by the ankles and try to keep it to you no matter what. Love is given. It cannot be owed to you. What you have to do is to give love out. Another's love is not a heifer you rope in.

In the world, everyone wants a special love. Everyone wants to be a special love. Everyone wants to mean something to someone or everyone. Beloveds, intend to be love and not ache. Be willing to love and be willing to let go. Love and release. Love and release. If you want to hold on to a love, you have to let it go.

HEAVEN #4093 Your Nearest Neighbor, February 8, 2012

God said:

Come right up. Enter My heart here. Here is where I AM, and here is where you ARE. You belong in My heart. Indeed, you have never been anywhere else. Ask Me to mentor you. Ask Me anything you want. Tell Me anything you want. It is all music to My ears.

You love to hear from those you love. So do I. Tell me anything. Say hello. It doesn't have to be newsworthy what you say to Me. Say, "God, God, God," and I am happy. I love to hear you say My Name. I love to hear your voice. I love to hear you talk to Me.

Speak to Me of love. What else, really, is there to talk about? Whatever it is, We can talk about it, yet the subject always, sooner or later, turns to love. So let's speak of love now. It is My gift to you. It is My thanks to you. Love is what I am for, and love is also what you are for. We are for nothing but love, and love is something. Love is everything.

I introduce you to love. "Hello, love. This is a Heavenreader I am introducing you to. Love, say hello. Heavenreader, embrace Love. Love will love you.” Love just naturally loves. It doesn't matter who you think you are or who you think you're not. Love is My middle name, and My first name and My last name. Love is My Name. Love is yours.

I have given you everything I have to give, and this is love I have given to you. Inquire within. Go to your heart and find the house of love. Here is where everyone has love. Love is captured in your heart, and Love is freed in your heart as well. Where Love is, Love is welcomed. Hip hip hurray for Love! Three cheers for Love.

And now multiply Love. That's it. You are multiplier of Love, My Love. You don't count it up, yet you multiply it. Love in, love out. Love, love, love. All love is Mine, and all love is yours. There is naught else but love. Love in the air. Love on the road. Love in the sky. Love in the stars. Love in the day. Love in the night.

You have been foraging for love, and now you let love go out everywhere. You are a dispenser of love. Love is what you are made of, and love is what you have been made for. Love is your inheritance, and love is your privilege, and love is what you give, and love only.

If you wish to teach others, then love them and don't teach them anything. Love will take over. It is the only teaching that amounts to anything. Do not hold yourself up as a teacher. Beloveds, I am the Teacher. I teach love. Love is the only teacher. Serve love, and you will inspire the world.

You are well aware that others need to give out more love. You have seen stinginess of love in others. Never mind, give your love rampantly. Be generous with love, and you will no longer judge anyone. Let it be easier to love than it is to judge. Let criticism go by the wayside. Ride a go-cart of love. Speed down the highway. Ride a trolley of love. Love Me. Love you. Love your neighbor. All are your neighbors. The furthest star is your neighbor. There is no one who is not your neighbor. And I am your nearest Neighbor of all. I am right with you. I am deep within your heart. We are deep deep friends. This is how I like it. This is how I love it. I love you, and you love Me, and how beautiful is love. What can be better than love? Nothing. What can be as good as love? Love alone. There is nothing else. Anything else amounts to a hill of beans.

HEAVEN #4092 Time in the World, February 7, 2012

God said:

You have been such a servant of time. You want something now, right now, or you will do something later or maybe never. Time seems to be your commander. You are obedient, or you are wayward. You are assigned a rating according to your use of non-existent time.

Time beats its metronome without batting an eye. You try to catch up or slow down, and you make time invincible.

It doesn't matter that I tell you that time doesn't exist. You kneel to time just the same. Time has become your standard. And when you do not kowtow to time, you feel bad.

You are bound and determined to fill up time, and, often from your point of view, the more you fill it up, the better. The more you get done in little time, the more you feel you are up to the mark. The less you get done in a lot of time, the less worthwhile you feel.

Time is innocent, and yet it flogs you.

Would that love would rule you more than time.

Love knows not of time. Love is a healing balm. It is instant. It is eternal. Love is an instant cure to whatever is on your mind. Love yourself, and time will not throttle you.

How can it be that time does not exist while the world runs on it? God forbid that you don't honor time. Time doesn't exist, and yet it has authority over you, such authority over you. Time is like a warden. Ease your foot from the pedal of time, from this concept of time that holds you in its grip, that holds you in servitude.

In Truth, there is no time, and yet there is time for everything in Eternity. Time does not exist to do things in, and yet in Timelessness there is all the time in the world.

You cannot master time because time has mastered you!

Have a good time - what does that mean?

And, yet, in the world, you have to catch your flight on time, and the tension grows. Time is a great tension-builder.

And space rules you, even as space does not exist either.

You are ruled by two fictional characters. The world has made gods of them. Everyone bows down to them. Wars have been fought over space that can, in Reality, only be empty. And deadlines have been met or not met, and punishment is given. You are charged interest, or you may even be under penalty of death in some kingdoms of the world. It is said that your time runs out. Time is nothing at all, and yet you adhere to it. Be on time is the world's motto. Don't be late.

Okay, adhere to time. Get to work on time. Catch your flight, and know that time is nothing. You don't controvert time, and yet you can keep time in its place. You don't betray it. You don't have to start a rebellion. And, yet, you don't have to be so time-serving.

Yet even on vacations, time seems to have you in its thrall.

You are far greater than time, and yet you bind yourself to follow it.

Take your time, beloveds. It is yours. Be on time without being beholden to it. Take a break from time every now and then. Give yourself a break from the intensity of time.

You may set an alarm clock, yet when you sleep, and when you dream, you are out of time, and you rest.

And when you are running around in the world, take time into account and, at the same time, take your time. Take all the time in the world.

HEAVEN #4091 Within You, February 6, 2012

God said:

You can stop repeating patterns now. Keep your patterns of love. Patterns of turmoil, leave behind.

You would not wear the same dress year after year after year. You wouldn't wear the same dress your whole lifetime. And, yet, you may carry old patterns of living, and, still, be surprised at the turn your life has taken this time as if you were a bystander in life.

No matter how uncomfortable you may be with how life seems to have treated you, life has been at your bidding. I am talking patterns. I am saying to pay attention. Pay attention to choices you make. If you tend to run headlong into repeated circumstances, slow down. If you tend to leave yourself out and wait and wait, shake yourself up a little bit. You are not an outsider to your own life. This is your life on Earth We are talking about.

If you feel often taken advantage of, that may be a pattern you solicit. Do not acquiesce to patterns that are not uplifting. Uplift yourself. There is something in you that can agreeably change.

You don't have to yell nor do you have to be the one yelled at. You don't have to be dominant nor do you have to be submissive. There is no role in life that you have to bow down to.

If you are tall or short, what can you do? Yet, in many matters, what can be changed is, by and large, up to you, up to your thinking, up to the way you look at yourself and the way you look at the world at large and the world of your home and work, the world of your own existence.

What would it take for your life to be more of what you want it to be? I would like you to just hold this idea in your mind. I am not suggesting that you work hard at changing your view of things. I suggest that you be aware. If something is holding you back, it has to be you who holds yourself back. Obstacles lie within you, dear ones.

It behooves you to consider yourself responsible for your life and not hold others responsible for your life. Take responsibility for your own happiness. No one else can carry his or her own life and carry yours too.

Life has been offered to you. You have made many choices. You are free to choose now.

We are not talking here of working from the outside. We are talking of opening something within yourself, knowing yourself as capable of change. Begin with yourself. Change lies within you. You are capable of it. See life differently, and your life will change.

If you want to laugh more, you will begin to see reasons to laugh more. No one can see for you or laugh for you.

Across the board, I say to everyone: Love yourself more. Love yourself as I do love you. The whole world starts with you. People will come and go in your life on Earth, but you are here at this moment. Make it a moment of love. This one idea alone will move mountains.

Encourage yourself. Pat yourself on the back. Pat yourself on the back extensively. Even if you flunked a test, beloveds, you took it. Help yourself to feel good, not bad. You are seeking your own direction to go in, and you will find it. Be a harbinger of light. Lighten yourself. Because of your growing happiness, the world's happiness will grow. You are the initiator. You are the instigator. You are the institutor of a New World.

HEAVEN #4090 Waiting for Self-Realization , February 5, 2012

God said:

Love is more powerful than anything. A little love goes a long way. Even love invisible flourishes. It flourishes now. Call love life force, if you like. It is the only force of life there is. What am I? I am love. What are you? You who are Myself are also love. You didn't always know that. You still don't always feel that, yet, more and more, love is coming into its own.

We could say that love has had many disguises, yet love is always love. You have disguised love. You disguised it from yourself. You put on blinders and walked right past love.

You did not give love enough credit. You gave objects of love too much credit, perhaps. Yet love itself you overlooked. The quality of love. The quantity of love. Yes, you have overlooked love. Most of all, you have overlooked the love in your own heart. You have overlooked your capacity for love. You thought the love in your heart was limited. You thought you had to count it and ration it. Only so much love here. Only so much love there. You dealt out love like cards. It is as if you read Tarot without the cards. You predicted ahead of time. You assigned love here but not there.

There is no there. There is only here. I am love, and I am all that exists. The individual you imagine you are does not exist. You are a story you tell yourself. You make yourself up as you go along. You have, as a matter of fact, had no clue as to Who you truly are and the dimensions of yourself that include everyone and everything.

You have pretended dumbness when, all along, you have been brilliance itself. You have been My brilliance, except you didn't realize it. You have been waiting for Self-Realization when you already had it, already had it except for the one little thing of your recognizing it. You have always been realized, only you didn't realize your Self.

What a powerful Being you are. How powerfully you have mistaken yourself for something that you are not. You are the wisest of all, and yet you have hidden your wisdom from yourself. It is not true that you do not know better. You do know better. You have been waiting for the world or someone in the world to signal you when to reveal yourself when your revelation is entirely up to you. Signal yourself then.

I have been signaling you for a long time. 'Wake up," I have said. "Wake up now." Beloveds, you have to wake yourself up. You don't need an alarm clock to wake you up from this sleep you have been walking in. Signal to yourself to wake up. Signal to yourself to accept yourself as you are, not less. You sold yourself to yourself and to the world for a sou. That's all you thought you were worth.

Now you begin to see that you are worth gold. You are My gold, beloveds. What price can be put on My gold?

You are the treasure of the Heavens. You are My treasury. You are the bank I bank on. I look to you. I know you look to Me, yet I look to you. I know what I see when I look at you. Begin to see what I see, and begin to value yourself as I do value you. Make no mistake on this. You have sold yourself short, and now you will begin to grasp the yardage that you truly are. There is no end to you. You are infinite, and you are eternal. No measuring tape is long enough to measure you. You can't buy an infinite measuring tape. There is no limit to you. You are limitless. So am I.

HEAVEN #4089 Innocence in the World, February 4, 2012

God said:

From the very beginning of Heavenletters, I have told you that you do not owe anyone anything, and no one owes you anything. No one is an owner of anyone, nor is anyone owned by anyone. You are free. This is what free will means.

If, in the world, another or others seem to own you, their sense of ownership, no matter how they see it or how you see it, comes with your agreement. This is hard to believe.

No matter what, you are your own shining light. If you are owned, somewhere along the line, you partnered in this. It may not have been your conscious volition, and yet, somewhere, sometime, you okayed it. An agreement was made.

You can undo agreements, beloveds. If undoing agreements is hard for you, then you can begin to see your own attachment to another's attachment.

The virtue of not owning or being owned is that you let go of attachment. You let go of attaching, and you let go of being attached by another. This means you are your own sovereign self.

You may say, "What if I am imprisoned? How does this theory of yours work, God?"

It is the same, dear ones. You made choices along the way that led you to where you are.

"What if I did not commit the crime, God?"

This is harder, yet, somewhere along the line, you acquiesced. Before birth, after birth, somewhere along the line. Even if you are innocent. Even if you are the one who robbed a bank, you are innocent just the same. Do you understand? Even if you did the deed, you are innocent. You have to be very innocent indeed to rob a bank and think you won't ever get caught. All are innocent. We're not questioning innocence. All My children are innocent.

If you were kidnapped, you are innocent. If you are a reprobate and kidnapped, you are innocent. If you are a baby kidnapped, you are innocent. Everything seems random, yet it is not. Something unfathomable is being played out. You cannot fathom it. You cannot fathom it anymore than you can fathom that your tummy is empty, and others' tummies are full, or you cannot fathom that your tummy is full, and others are starving. What can you fathom, dear ones?

There is no opposite to innocence. Guilt is not opposite to innocence. Guilt is something implied applied. Guilt is applied to another or to yourself, yet, really, all anyone can be guilty of is being a human being. Human beings sometimes make mistakes. The ink that spilled was a mistake. A word misspelled was a mistake. The murder of another is a mistake. Everything that is not love itself is a mistake.

The teacher who scolds the child for spilling the ink or misspelling a word is also making a mistake. Anyone who judges is making a mistake.

The world would say that some mistakes are greater than others, for the world itself is all about relating one thing to another. All the world is relative. That's what makes it the world.

For the purposes of Our discussion this morning, a mistake is a mistake. For every mistake, there are repercussions, yet a mistake is a mistake, and mistakes are made. Let mistakes be mistakes and not weigh them so judiciously.

But the world is not a mistake. And you are not a mistake. You can rise to any occasion, whatever the occasion may be. Some of you have risen. In fact, everyone has risen. No one stays the same in the world. The world is all about change. The one who murders can become a saint. A proven saint may falter. Anything is possible in the world.

Extreme goodness is possible. Extreme goodness is not only possible, it is an everyday occurrence.

The world is not about justice, as you perceive justice. It is about goodness, however.

HEAVEN #4088 A Whole World Full of Light , February 3, 2012

God said:

The world, as you know it, is changing, for you are growing. And so, the world as you know it, changes before your very eyes. The world is a reflection of you. As you change and grow, so goes the world. The world is of your making, and the world is of your perception of it.

As you see a beautiful world, the world becomes more beautiful. And so do you. You become more beautiful to yourself and to others. You have always been beautiful to Me. My perception doesn't change. My perception has ever been true. I see. I have never not seen. Wherever I look, I see beauty. I have heard that beauty is in the Beholder. That saying holds Great Truth.

It is also true that how the Beholder sees rubs off on the Beheld. The more beauty you see in others, the more beautiful they will actually become.

You have seen this. When people feel loved or are in love, they light up, and they are beautiful. It is beautiful to see, and you have seen it. Be beautiful, and you will have a glow. See beauty, and what you see will have a glow about it. This is how you light up the world!

What is glow but light? And what are you but light? Light is spreading across the land. Beauty is becoming more beautiful. Beauty is infinite, and infinite means always more. There is no going back, beloveds. You can no longer hide your light in corners. No longer can you be shy or reticent to shine your light. You came here to Earth to shine your light, and shine your light you will. It is ordained, beloveds, it is ordained that you will come out of the shadows of your own perception. How about now? What is there to wait for? What are you waiting for? Come out from the shadows now.

Simply step out from the shadows of your past thinking. You, yes, you. You are a most beautiful being. Any lack you may have is lack of true perception of yourself, life, and others. You notice I say that it is your perception that is lacking. That is all that can be lacking. I created you as beauty. My perception is accurate. You are the non-believer. You are a non-believer in yourself.

You can't make yourself believe. You believe what you believe. Yet what you believe can be changed. You can raise a lesser belief to a higher belief. You do this by noticing. Any little bit of beauty you notice anywhere becomes you, and it becomes part of you. Start noticing beauty in yourself and others, and pat yourself on the back. Be pleased. You saw beauty. You noticed it. You became it. This is worth celebrating. Celebrate now. It's fine to celebrate even ahead of time.

Once you make the decision to see beauty, you will see it. You will notice it even in dark places. Even in the dark, there is some light. See the beauty in yourself. See the beauty in others. The truth is that all beauty is yours. It is all yours.

In this moment, the supposed you and the supposed I, are beautiful together. We make beautiful music, for you see, We love, and what is love but seeing the beautiful wherever it is, however it is housed. Every single person has a spark of light, and now We are going to make this spark become a huge bonfire of light, a mountain of light, a whole world full of light, thanks to you.

HEAVEN #4087 The Answer, February 2, 2012

God said:

You are an expert on the seeking of love. Indeed, you may have been a beggar of love. You have paid a lot of attention to your need of love, yet love is not something to be begged for. You don't want to be good at begging for love.

The thing to do with love is to give it. There is no other recourse but for you to give love.

If you have been a beggar for love, holding your heart out for even a tiny squeeze of love, stop that now. Giving love is always the answer. If you are hungry for love, the cure is to give your love away. Spend your love. It does not belong to you anyway. Love is for you to give.

If you feel you are needing love, that is a sure sign to give love. When you put your finger on a hot stove, you know to take your finger off the hot stove. When you are yearning for love, take your love out and give it. You are the maker of love. You are the fulfiller of it.

The concept of tithing is that when you are in need of wealth, you give a percent of the wealth you have. If you have little wealth, still you give a percent. In the old days, the poorest of the poor were to give away a greater percent than the wealthy. That is how giving works.

The hungrier you are for love, the more you are to give. This is how to see love. Pour it out, and your love will be plentiful. You will see love everywhere, and you will be love everywhere. This is how you become wealthy in love. Love will fall on you like a spring rain.

When you are generous, life will copy you. When you are stingy, life will copy you. It is yourself you stint.

When you long for love, your longing will multiply. The more you give out love, the more your love will multiply. Take joy in giving love, you will have more joy in receiving love.

This is how you direct your life.

Of course, it is better for you to let go of thinking of getting love back. It is not quite love when you give love with a motive in mind. Give love because it is yours to give. Give love because the world needs your love. Give love because you have love to give. Give love because this is what you are to do. Give love so that you become good at giving it.

The less love you have, the more you give. And the more love you have, the more love you will still give.

Whatever your situation is, give more. This is how you fill yourself.

When you are lonely, make someone else less lonely.

All this is another way for Me to say to let go of putting so much attention on yourself. Too much attention on yourself separates you from life. It separates others from you, and it separates you from yourself.

When you feel a need for more attention, that is a signal to give others more attention. Self-serving does not serve you. It doesn't serve anyone.

Serve Me, beloveds. Serve Me well, beloveds. You serve Me by serving others. The more you serve others, the more you serve Me. The more you serve Me, the more you serve yourself.

This is your true need, beloveds, to serve.

HEAVEN #4086 Where the River Will Take You, February 1, 2012

God said:

You often ask Me to give you the conclusion to an episode in your life, as if I have in My pocket the answer to every single thing that will occur or not occur. In life in the world, you set something in motion. When you set something in motion, what you have set is like a big wave, and one wave leads to another. Will the wave you have set in motion reach shore? Will it reach this shore or that shore? Will it come back to knock you over, or will it carry you to the High Seas and where you want it to take you? Will what you have started turn out all right?

Well, of course, everything turns out all right. In terms of the world, eventually, it does. You are coming to Me rapidly whatever your decisions may be. Meanwhile, your decisions will take you somewhere.

You can't worry about finite conclusions to what you set in motion. The thing is you can't know. You can't know the finite destination of everything. You want to live life more than for results. When you look for certain assured results in life, you won't move, and life is meant to hop right along.

When you are pregnant, the pregnancy plays out. Pretty much, you have to wait and see. You do everything from your side, and you wait. In terms of pregnancy, you know about how long to wait. Yet in most of life, you do not know how long. You do not know when or where.

You cannot know all the answers. You want to know, but you can't know anything until it happens, and even then you don't always know. Who knows when something ends or how it ends? You may think something ended, and then, as in novels, a surprising event occurs.

Who even knows when something began let alone where it will end? Is there really such a thing as a beginning and an end? Maybe in books.

In life there are always surprises. Surprises are surprises! Some you love. Some you don't.

There is not a map to your life. You make a map as you go along. Life is set before you, yet it is not calculated for you. Life is not a sure thing. It is an adventure. Columbus intended to reach India. He reached the Americas. No one knows what tomorrow will bring let alone what will happen next year. No one can calculate. No matter what the past might indicate, no one can know what a bell will sound like until it peals.

What an economical thing it is to live in only this moment of Eternity where there is no future and no past, where there is living, and the living is easy. The only place to be is in the present, and you have heard that enough. You would live only in this moment if you knew how. Meanwhile, you attack yourself with the past, and you stab your heart with fear of the future. Beloveds, your life depends on right now. Your life is right now. Let go of the rope that holds you to the past and the same rope that holds you to the future.

The future is an unknown quantity. It is not predictable. Life is not a proven activity. It is not locked in. Anything is possible. You are more than the returns you get in life. If you only fear making mistakes, you are not living life. Live life. You do not know where the river may take you, but you do know that you are rowing your boat in the river.

HEAVEN #4085 Heartlight, January 31, 2012

God said:

Have a heart. Here. Here's Mine. It's yours. You already have it. It may be buried in your chest. Bring it to the forefront. Let your heart speak for you. Within your heart, lies Mine. Where did you think love came from?

All love is Mine, and all love has been secured in your heart. So your heart is Mine, and My heart is yours. Our hearts are made for each other. Even though as there is One of Me, there is One heart, and it is Ours, this one heart favored by all.

Sometimes My heart held by others is misused or not used at all. How can that be? Impossible, yet, seen from the outside, that is the case.

My heart would never be cruel. My heart would never be unthinking, shall We say. My heart bursts with love and nothing but love, yet less than love is known upon Earth, and so the Earth is ravaged.

Love gives. Less than love takes. At the same time, love is a give and take. Love has to be issued, and love yearns to be received. So, be a giver, and, when it comes to love, take it. Yet receiving isn't taking, yet nor is receiving passive. Receiving is a loving art, and so shall you receive.

To begin with, here is My love all laid out on a platter. You don't even have to ask for it, though you may. All you have to do is to reach out and bless My love with your acceptance. Be eager to accept My love, for I pour it out. I pour out the fullness of My heart rampantly. Catch it now, and catch it later again because My love is a continuum of pouring. There is no stopping it. Keep your receipt of My love just as constant. You are never without it. No matter how lonely you may feel, My love pours voluminously out to you. My love is never just a trickle. My love is a torrent of love. My love is Niagara Falls. My love. Beloveds, you are My love, and you act on My behalf.

What is your job on Earth? It is to deliver My love. On My behalf, you give love, and you give more, and you create more, and you receive more.

Let the issuing of love be a song that sticks in your mind. It simply won't go away. You are aware of this song of love that runs through you. Nothing deters this music. Is not love music? Is it not the music of the soul and the music of the Heart of God?

Let My music course through you. Let it light each cell of you. Let it brighten life for yourself and everyone who sees a star like you on Earth. Why not be a star of light on Earth as you are in Heaven?

What would hold you back from revealing the Bright Light you are? You are capable, not incapable. You have the wattage. You were born with it. All you have to do is turn it on. You are a light bulb from Heaven on Earth. You are a long-lasting light bulb that is never to go out. First you turn your light on and then never dim it. Let your light so shine before the whole world so that the whole world can recognize the light that it is. Light is beautiful, and you are beautiful. You are My beautiful heartlight on Earth. Beloveds, you are like a search light on Earth. You are a beacon light of Heaven shining for all to see.

HEAVEN #4084 All Are One, and All Are Worthy, January 30, 2012

God said:

Be a friend first. There is no need to wait for others to extend their hands to you first. When you greet another, you are greeting yourself. By all means, greet yourself. No ands, ifs, and or buts.

For easy understanding, you have made yourself into an I and so have many others, and I give a lesson in grammar that you and I are a We. We like to be We. You like to be We. You like to be We with Me, and you like to be We with others.

You want to be a part of we with people as well. You like to say: We went to the movies. You like that better than to say: I went to the movies. You don't like to be by yourself.

The fact is that you are united with everyone. Whether you are biased against one creed or another, the fact is that you are One. When you are biased against any group, therefore making yourself believe that you are superior, you are One just the same. There is no getting away from Oneness, regardless of your stance. You can consider yourself King of the Mountain, and you are not singled out, for everyone partners with you. You do not stand alone. No one stands above another. All are equal. In Reality, all are equal. All are equal in Oneness. All are equal in My eyes. Whose other eyes would you go by?

You can be healthier, taller, shorter than your neighbor, yet none of these make any difference. You are One with everyone and everything. There is no superior. There is no inferior. We are talking about souls. We are talking about Inner Being. All are Mine in Oneness. There is no all. There is I. If you think you exist as an entity apart from Me, it doesn't matter. We are One, for Oneness alone is.

Put away those patterns that distinguish one individual as worthy and another as unworthy. I have the say on that, and I say that all are One and worthy, in My eyes, and My eyes count. I count One.

Everyone you meet is One with you. Everyone you don't meet is One with you. Everyone you meet is I. Be good to Me, beloveds, in whatever form I may appear to be in. And remember that I am within you the same. You are Love, and I am Love, and what else is there to say?

I will say to you to stay in love. Surely, you don't want to stay in anger, grief, resentment, disappointment and so forth. Make life simple. Stay with Me. Stay in Oneness in your perception. If you do desire Truth, then admit you are Oneness. Nothing else matters. What I mean is that nothing else makes a difference. Ten toes or none, everyone perceived out there is I.

The murderer is I. The victim is I. The judge in his robes is I. You do not have to be a judge in robes in order to judge. You have been rampant with judgment, and one common judgment is that you are better than someone else, or someone else is better than you. This is ignorance, beloveds. Better not to be a perpetrator. Better not to be a victim. Better not to be a judge who pronounces sentences on others.

You may have sentenced others to be beneath you or above you. You may have sentenced yourself to be a beggar in life, holding out your hand for a pittance of belief in yourself.

I more than believe in you. I believe in Me. I regard Myself and everyone else (all the imagined everyone elses) as Myself, which, in fact, you are, and so is everyone.

HEAVEN #4083 Those Little Red Candy Hearts , January 29, 2012

God said:
You are in My heart right now. You incubate here. I speak metaphorically. I can only speak metaphorically, you understand. In My Great Love, you are housed. There is no greater than love, Mine, yours, anyone's.

If you want to know how to climb the Golden Ladder to Heaven, I will tell you how to do it. Love. Simply love. Every step of love is a rung up on the ladder. Of course, there is no distance when it comes to love. Love is immediate. It takes no time at all.

Any question you may ask Me, the answer is love and more love. Begin with love, and end with love. Love is all.

There is no accounting for love. It comes from unexpected places, does it not? Now anticipate seeing love. Watch it all around you. See love issuing from you. The less you feel loved, the more reason for you to love. You do not have to account for love. Do not think that love is not deserved or that someone, even yourself, has to earn it. Love is your birthright. It is coming to you.

The thing is not to pout when you don't see it or feel it. Love anyway. Love morning, noon, and night. Program an abundance of love. See those little red candy hearts spilling out from your heart. Love out, and love comes in. See those little red candy hearts flowing in. Nevertheless, it doesn't really matter so much how much love comes in. What really matters is how much love you extend.

You may think that it is not easy to love. The only reason why you might think that is because you allow yourself to be a victim of judgment. What do you think finding fault is but judgment? Beloveds, you are not too good to give love. It is not superior of you to withhold love. Certainly, you do not have to hug and kiss everyone. Just let your love be known quietly, subtly. Love is not a big hurrah. It is like breathing. You breathe in, and you breathe out. In terms of love, breathe out first. Keep breathing love out. There is always more. There is no limit to love. Let there be no hesitation. Let it be okay to feel love, think love, be love, receive love. There is no tally card for love. Love where you love. And where you don't love, let love emanate from you just the same. Love in all directions. No cap on love, please.

You have thought that your life is dependent upon many things, getting a job, getting married, having a child. These are important to you, yet you are not dependent upon them for love. You are a carrier of love, and it matters that you love. You get dressed every morning. You put make-up on. Remember that love accompanies you. Every opportunity is an opportunity to love. You can do it. You can love. You are love. Announce that to yourself.

Send love even to those you can't stand. You don't have to sit in their lap. You can love from afar. All you have to do is to love.

Wish everyone well, and mean it. That is love.

Sense your aura of love. Sense it filling the room you are in. Sense how far love issues from you. It fills your house. It fills the city or town you live in. It fills your province. It fills your country. It fills the oceans. It fills all the continents. It fills all the world. It fills the Universe. It fills Heaven. From your heart, love extends itself, and is happy to do so. This is an easy thing I ask of you when I ask you to love from your heart.

HEAVEN #4082 All You Have to Know , January 28, 2012

God said:

If I am God, what are you? Are you a Godling? I think We can call you a Godling. Do you like that? I like that. The Reality is far greater than that, and yet you can do well to think of yourself as a Godling. A Godling is a child of God, and you are certainly that. You are more than that, yet Godling will suffice.

You are My Godling. God loves His Godling. If you will carry that one thought through the day, you will have a different day. Think, "God loves me." That is a good thought. That is a great thought. Watch your posture change. You are loved by God. That is enough to know.

Forget about doubts. Forget about asking: "God, what about that? What about this? How did You let this happen or that happen? How could You?"

Do you really want to remonstrate with Me? Do you really want to point out the error of My ways? Plead ignorance, beloveds, and let it go at that. You don't know what you don't know.

There is nothing you have to know except that you are loved by your Creator. This otherness that you conceive as your Creator loves you. This is how you will come to love yourself. You will stop contradicting My love for you. You will not object to it any longer. You will not look for reasons why I can't possibly love you. You will no longer resist My love. You will take My love for you as your due. This does not make you prideful. This makes you humble. Glad, yes. Happy, yes. God loves YOU.

Of course, there is no you. There is only I, and yet We play this game of tag.

I love you as naturally as you breathe. I don't have to think about it, for I love. You do have to think about My love because you have too often scorned yourself. You did not come up to some standard assigned to you in the world.

Know this: You do come up to My standard. Are you a human being? Well, then, it is inevitable that I love you. I plucked you from the fruit of My vine, and I love you true. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you as you are with or without freckles. It is My joy to love you when you are happy and when you are sad. It is My joy to love you when you are naughty or nice. It is My Will to love you, yet I do not need to will My love for you. My love for you is natural. It is natural for Me to love you. It is easy for Me. We can't even say it is easy, for I have never known anything that was hard. It just so happens that I love you. It just so happens that I am Love, and I love, and that's all there is to it.

How could I not love when love is all, and I am Love? How could I not love the beauty I see before Me? Never mind any longer what you see. See with My eyes of love. See beyond the nose on your face. See beyond any foolishness. See beyond any inattentiveness. See beyond error. Error is washed away in love. Wash away anything that is not love. Conceive of this. This is what is coming up for you and for the world. Love. Love in all corners. Love beyond love you have known. Love beyond your failings. Love beyond your successes. Love beyond any limits. Love beyond any cut-offs. Love all. Love bigger than life.

HEAVEN #4081 God Is Here, January 27, 2012

God said:

Call on Me a lot. Whatever you are doing, enlist Me in your actions, your thoughts, your creativity. This is not prayer I am talking about. This is simply keeping Me in mind as your companion which I most certainly am. Even an intention to think of Me works wonders.

Say: "God, I would like to keep company with You more often. God, sometimes I get so involved in what I'm doing, I forget about You. How could I forget about You, yet I do. It is like I take a rowboat out into the middle of a lake, and I leave you on the shore."

Yet when you think of Me when you are in a rowboat in the middle of a lake, your awareness of Me seats Me right beside you in the rowboat far from shore. Of course, the fact is, you know by now that I am always with you. There is not a millisecond that I am not. However, your awareness plays a part for you in this drama of life on Earth, so it's a good idea to keep Me in your awareness.

When I am always in your awareness, you know your solidarity with Me. Solid am I even though I am unseen. I am unseen, yet you can feel My Presence.

Many times when you are by yourself, I hear you speak to yourself. You may say something like: "What did I come into this room for? What am I looking for? Oh, yes, now I remember."

You could try talking to Me instead of yourself! That would help your awareness. Say something like: "God, what was I looking for here? Oh, there it is."

When you talk to Me, there I am. It would be better for Me to say, when you talk to Me, I am already here. It would be better for Me to say, "Here I am! I am here! I was always right with you wherever you are. In spring and summer, I am with you. In fall and winter, I am with you. I am with you. There is nowhere I would rather be than right with you."

Whom would you rather be with? And what would you rather your thoughts were on?

Yes, better that you keep coming back to thoughts of Me. How many times a day can you say God under your breath? 100 times? More? Even your thinking God once a day gives you a head start.

This doesn't mean you are asking anything of Me. You don't have to be asking anything of Me. It is enough that you simply greet Me and make yourself comfortable with Me.

Perhaps you have thought it is a big deal to have Me beside you. Not at all. It is an ordinary thing. I am never ever away from you. I am your constant Companion with or without your attention. Of course, I do like it when you look at Me straight in the eye, so to speak.

This does not mean that you leave everything up to Me. You don't throw off your responsibilities, yet, with Me around you, around you in your consciousness, your responsibilities no longer appear as shackles. Responsibilities become easier for you. You are responsible for breathing, and you breathe without thinking. I am in every breath you take. You can rely on Me, and you can rely on yourself. Relying is quite a different cry from worrying. What is there to worry about when you have Me with you?

Little by little, just your thinking of Me will remove worry from your thoughts and weight from your shoulders, and life will be easy, and you will feel ease and, odds are, you will be healthier and stronger. Yet even health is not a requirement for joy to take a hold of you. All you need is Me.

HEAVEN #4080 Greatness Is Yours , January 26, 2012

God said:

When you put aside the little smallnesses that occupy you, in contrast, what Greatness would you then be?

I am talking about the thoughts you carry, how this one hurt your feelings, and that one didn't do right by you, and all the echoes that occupy you so single-mindedly. Beloveds, if you would drop all thoughts like that and think about that which holds value to you and look into the eyes of those whom you are presently peeved at, what Greatness would you be? What Greatness would the world be?

Energy is not lost, and yet you put your energy on small things, little pin-pricks of society that amount to nothing, and yet you let these pin-pricks occupy your thoughts. If they occupy your thoughts, they occupy your life. So what if everything someone says doesn't suit you? So what if everything some people do doesn't suit you? So what, this and that? A crowd of thoughts mill around you, and you are surrounded by them, and your life feeds on them.

What do you want your life made of? I know you want your life made of Greatness. Let go of those pesky little thoughts, and Greatness will be yours. Great thoughts yield great crops. I know you want to be a great farmer of life.

When you were a gatherer of berries, you didn't look for the sour ones or the spoiled ones. You looked for the berries bulging with juice, the tasty ones, the ones worth gathering and sharing.

Now your mind may travel to thirty years ago or a scene in your childhood that scratched your heart, and you pull it up again and again as if it had value to you when it has no value to you or anyone.

When I say to let the past go, I mean, "Let the past go." Keep your thoughts high, and left-overs from your childhood will be gone from your mind. Keep your thoughts high, and you will have surmounted the past. No longer will it hold you back. Why would you let the past hold you in place when you are far more than you ever were in the past? Let the past be past.

Yesterday, someone hurt your feelings. Must it be a big deal? Your feelings have been a hurt a lot, yet what is the point of it? If you are victim of circumstance, how can you be great? A victim of circumstance is a twig in the water and has no direction of its own.

You are meant to direct your life to Greatness. No one else can do this for you. You can do this. And you can do this simply by letting go of the little thoughts and think bigger thoughts instead. You don't have to be what you have been. You can be what you want to be. You can be what I want you to be.

Will you consider the thoughts I think and think them for yourself? What if you were God, what would you think about? Certainly, you can accept that you are God of your world, that your world, your life, is the extension of your thoughts?

Think small thoughts, and what will you have? Think great thoughts, and what will you be? Never mind what others are. Never mind their foolishness, their tactlessness, their smallness. You don't like smallness, so why would you let smallness occupy your mind and heart when your mind and heart are made for greater things? Surely, you don't believe that I made you for smallness. Surely, you will accept that I made you for Greatness. Start with great thoughts. Be a poet of a great life.
