Let God's Answers Come to You like Quiet Snow

http://www.heavenletters.org/let-gods-answers-come-to-you-like-quiet-snow.html


God said:


How do you know when a thought that comes to you is Mine or yours? No bell goes off. No light flashes. No angel appears to point a sword to a sign that reads "God's thought" or "individual thought". And so you try to discern and make life harder than it need be.


Sometimes you just know, and sometimes you simply don't. But when you do know, it is not from analysis.


That is why it is well to start off your day by calling Me to your awareness. When I am firmly planted in your awareness, you come from a higher plane. That is intention. Intend that I be your Guide. Intend that you hear My guidance. I cannot fail you. And you will not fail Me.


You will hear Me as an impulse. You will hear Me as a mother understands the meaning of her baby's cry. The baby's cry sets off an attunement in the mother. In this case, I refer to you as the mother and the cry is My song to you.


'Tis of thee I sing!"


We have a golden cord that connects us. Whichever end of this chain that is pulled, the other end feels it and responds. I tug My end a lot, and sometimes you are too busy to notice. But I always notice even the most delicate pull you make because I am sensitively attuned to the beat of your heart. The beat of your heart rumbles in Heaven. And the beat of My heart rumbles on earth. The beat of My heart rumbles on earth through your own simple heart.


We are connected by a two-way speaker, My heart and your heart.


Don't concern yourself so much with what you have to do or what decision you have to make. You have made one, and that is to hear My song.


Your intention is like a beep that goes off between Us. And, of course, your intention is in answer to My song. So, of course, discernment is not the trick. Intention is. And I have intention for you. That is My song. It is made of My intention for you.


So what you really are asking is how do you know when you hear Truth or when you hear echoes from the past, for My children dearly want to separate the wheat from the chaff.


Once you start the process, you don't have to watch it. I am the Process.


Once you address yourself to Me, think not of decision but of Me.


Turn the switch on, and allow Truth to appear. Don't worry it. Don't toss Truth around so much up in the air from your right hand back to your left and again.


Watch Me. Allow Me. Know I come. Know I feed love into your heart.


Behind any purpose you have stands your intention to serve Me. Know this, and you have bigger vision automatically.


Be not so concerned with what is right and what is improper. Be open to Our connection. See Me before you. See how firmly you walk when you know that I am leading you.


Let Me be like a perfume you wear.


Let Me be like a tune that fills your mind.


Let Me be like a breeze that stirs your heart.


Let Me be like a sweet taste in your mouth.


Let Me be your vision.


You have pledged yourself to Me. You have no more decisions to make. They are made. Your decisions are made in Heaven. Listen quietly. Do not wrack your brain. Let My answers come to you like quiet snow. Individual snowflakes descend from on high and cover the earth with a whiteness that leaves no doubt of its arrival. But the snowflakes fall gently. The earth makes no big ceremonial. The earth receives the snow. As the earth receives snow, receive My guidance. Quietly accept it.


There is a cry: "Hear me, O Lord!"


That cry was misinterpreted. It was My cry, and I was saying: "Hear Me, My children, O hear Me!"


And that is your cry now as well, that you rest your weary ear on My heart and hear My voice above all others. Hear Me, My children, O hear Me!

Paradise

Worth Repeating by Debra Clemente



Heavenletter #127 Published on: March 5, 2001



God said:


Although there is no time, and eternity is, you are not to delay. Much counts on you. Your attention is needed.

You are no longer in kindergarten.


Your vision has to expand in order to save the outer world. The outer world has to grow toward Heaven. You have to grow. Your growth influences the outer world. The world cannot grow without you. You grow the world. The world is the crop you have seeded. What do you plant?


The outer world is the ripples of your pond. What are you rippling?


The outer world is a figment of your imagination. What are you imagining? How far does your sight go? Does it go past your nose?


Your sight must go past yourself and beyond the outer world. Your sight must come to Me so that you can raise the world. The world is like your child. When you have a child, you have vision of his future. The child I created and gave to you for safekeeping, you also create as you allow him to be what he is not yet. Right now he may be a six-year old, or seventeen, but you see the grandness of the child and where that greatness can take him.


Do the same for the world. The world does not have to stay as it is. It can grow to your vision. It can be Paradise.


Paradise is not a myth.


Once upon a time I presented you with Paradise. You fell out of it by seeing fault. By seeing fault, you made fault, and fault skyrocketed. Earlier fault still falls to earth. Now you will skyrocket the loveliness of God and His faith in you, His noble creation.


If you think the world must stay as it is, if you think the world has always been hard and must always be so, then you maintain the present status of the world. If you cannot see beyond it, you keep it where it is.


I gave you the world to sow with your thoughts. And sow you have. And now sow again that vines may grow and faith in the heart of man.


You who are My seed must reseed yourself and the living earth you walk on.


Every thought you seed grows somewhere.


Do not try to control your thoughts. Just look further. Have an intention, or vision, of what your thoughts can be and where they may land and what they may extol upon the earth.


Receive thoughts from the stars and pass those thoughts on. Be a star brigade.


Open the vaults of Heaven so that light may shine on the growing earth and its inhabitants.


Let My light in so that what can be will be.


No longer choose the past. It was astray.


Choose My vision. I will give it to you. Let My vision lead you and the world.


Christ was a savior. He saved hearts. Do you understand? He saved his heart first. He saved it by giving it to Me. His heart that he gave to me was returned to the world a million times over and more and more and again and again. Look at what one heart of man did sow. Led by Me within his heart, Christ blessed a world that needed blessing. His blessing continues. And he asks you to continue the blessing he gave. Be a blessing brigade.


You know, when you work for Me, you work for Me. There is no going back. You do not fit back where you once were. You can't put on that old clothing.


Now you forge ahead. Ahead means high. You must take giant steps and go high. How hard is it to come to Me? Not hard at all. Simply offer yourself and keep Me in sight. I will fulfill My Divine Will through you. I will do it, not you. But your willingness will help My Will be done.

Consider That You Are a Tour Guide


In Gratitude by Debra Clemente

Heavenletter #3651 Published on: November 23, 2010


God said:


A penny for your thoughts! A hundred dollars for your thoughts. A million dollars for your thoughts. Your thoughts are worth a great deal. Your thoughts are powerful, so powerful that they can build new cities, so powerful that they can topple tall buildings. Your thoughts are powerful.


What are you thinking about? And what do you want to think about?


I would say that you have had enough thoughts of doom. Good thoughts bring good living. Good thoughts are those that remind you of happiness.

Beloved Ones, you are living in a world! Think of it. You are living in a world! It is a great thing your living on Earth. You live in the Garden of Eden and know it not. You look at wilted flowers. You point them out. All the while, the sun shines, and new flowers grow.


Tend to My Garden for Me, will you? Will you take good care of this world I have given you from the fullness of My heart? I have given you something wonderful to take care of. Love the ground you walk on. Look how it supports you. Look how it grows food for you and flowers. Look at all that the world houses and all that the world has given to you out of its love for you. Know what you have received.


Make no mistake about it, I gave you a great gift when I gave you Earth. And you are a great gift I positioned on Earth. Remember that you are to bless the Earth. Bless every gift given to you. Raise the world’s flag high.


Be a proponent of the world. Do not belittle it. Do not worship it, yet give it credit for what it gives to you. Tip your hat to the world. Acknowledge its greatness. Thank the world for its blessings, and bless back.


The world is like a cafeteria. It offers great selections. Choose what you choose. You have chosen. Keep choosing. All the treats are there. All fresh. All yours for the choosing. Pass by what you do not favor. No reason to stay in one place deciding what you don’t like and why you don’t. Don’t make a campaign of it. Simply pass it by. Do not count the items you do not favor. Favor what you favor, and be done.


Point out the sights you like. There is no good reason to point out that which you don’t like. Consider that you are a tour guide. What are you going to show the people you guide? More people follow you than you know. Perhaps you have been considering yourself more than the people who follow in your steps.


Be considerate of the world and those who inhabit it with you. Look where you’re going. Look where your thoughts are taking you. You have infinite choices of thoughts. Thoughts are yours for the asking. And I am asking you to think of thoughts that seed the Earth with love. I am asking you to plant a new crop of thoughts. Be more than the farmer who plants the same old crop every year.


Be a pioneer. Be a Johnny Appleseed who has vision and the thoughts to make his visions come true. Thoughts are the wherewithal you need. All thoughts are at your disposal. None are out of your range.


Come into My store, and pick out the thoughts that serve you and the Universe well. Search the crevices of your heart, and you will find thoughts fit for a King, or a Queen. You will find thoughts you didn’t know you could have, and you can have them. They are yours.

The Love of Your Life


Low and Belold by Debra Clemente


Heavenletter #188 Published on: May 5, 2001


God said:


How long you have searched for the love of your life! The lengths you have gone to! The time you have spent. All the effort, all the primping, all the book-reading, all the advice, all the attention you have put on finding a man or a woman who will sustain your heart forever. And some of you succeeded, and more of you did not.


It is much easier to find Me, and I am, in truth, the love of your life. Do not belittle Our relationship. I am not a second best. I am not when all else has failed. I am not second string. Have your Human loves, and be faithful to Me. Live life on Earth, and soar in Heaven.


We are compatible. All of Human life is compatible with Me.


Look, We are One. There is One Sun, but many rays of it. You are one ray. You are one of My rays. And you are equal to all others. Some shine on the east and some in the west or the north or south, and sometimes you are all-directioned. You radiate Me to and fro your Human loves.


Your love is like the rays of the Sun emitted by the Sun. You are a ray of the Sun, and the rays of the Sun, the light of love you shine, are Mine, for I am the Sun and you are My rays of it.

It is not that you have to love Me. It is that you have to accept My love so that you can beam it. It is My love you shine. The more you accept My light, the more you shine. The more you shine, the more you are in accord with My Will, for My Will is for My love to shine and to shine everywhere through you.


You have thought that you were always seeking love, to give it and receive it, but the truth is you have been afraid of it. You have had a sense that love really was foreign to your nature, as if it were a hat you picked up somewhere and put on and wore as a thief or imposter, when all the while the hat was truly yours — you were the hat! for love is your nature. Love is your nature. Love is the essence of you. Don't deny it.


When you are in your truth, you are love. When you are away from love, you are not in your truth. With or without love, an act may appear the same. Love doesn't mean acquiescence. It doesn't mean passion. It doesn't mean sacrifice. It doesn't mean absence of self. It means Self.


On a bad day, you will say you are not yourself. Never were truer words spoken. When you are out of sorts, you are out of your truth. That is what makes you so uncomfortable. You feel awry because you have distanced yourself from the love that you truly are. You can never be unlove. You can be distraught, however. Distraught means distracted. You actually are quite skilled at distracting yourself from the true love that you are, and therefore from My love. You cannot undo My love or yours, but you can distract yourself. You do distract yourself. And when you distract yourself, you distract others as well. When you are distracted, you are not seeing. You are seeing something that isn't there. And then everyone else seems to see what you think you see.


Be My light rays. You already are. Let My light radiate from you. Do not frown. Frowning blinds you to yourself. Let yourself shine My beautiful light in all its glory.

A Meditation

by Dr. Joseph Murphy

Let's close our eyes and dwell upon these simple truths - Be still and know that I am God. Still the wheels of your mind and know that God is God, in All, over All, through All, and All in All. Stillness is not just being quiet, being the causes within itself by which the Life is rendered discordant have been brought into a state of Peace now. Into a state of quietude because you are thinking of the Infinite which is stretched in smiling repose. Then God's river of Peace flows through you. For there is a river, the streams whereof make glad the City of my God. And the City of God is your own mind and the people who are dwelling there are God's thoughts this morning. There God's thoughts and God's power are with your thoughts of good. So, knowing God indwells you, causes you to live in a world that is ever peaceful. Everyday of our lives we should meditate on the beauty and the glory and the profundity of the Eternal One. Meditating on the Peace and the Harmony and the Joy of the One who Forever Is, we resurrect these qualities and attributes in our Soul. And we begin to taste the Lord and find him Good. By moving inward this morning we find the Real and as we begin to meditate on I AM or OM as in India and dwelling upon the boundless Love and the Infinite Intelligence which is the meaning of I AM - pure Being, Life awareness, the Ever Living One within you, Thee, who inhabited Eternity, whose name is Perfect. Then, this thing called the body seems to be full of simply waves of Light - And the earth in which you are seated simply becomes a series of vibrations, a dancing light and the external world becomes a dream and your internal Life awakens. And you move further and further inward, finally you merge, you touch the One who Forever Is, and you begin to experience that moment that lasts forever. Suddenly, the meditating self perceives that the whole world by going inward, you have found the Universe. As all the mystics of all time realize that the whole world is within you, as you touch it. And you realize that planets are thoughts, sun and moon are thoughts and your own consciousness is the realization which sustains them all and that temporarily in space are moving the dreams of the dreamer. And the sun, the moon, the stars are the thoughts of the thinker - he is meditating on the mysteries of himself. It is the One alone who lives in the hearts of all men appearing as the many. The mystic through meditation finds the Peace, the Strength, and the Power for further steps. The practice of meditation bestows Beauty, Love, and Grace, and Dignity, and every Attribute, every Impulse and every Act. Of all existence, I AM the Source. I AM the decay, I AM the germ, I AM the growth, all things and creatures I support, I support them while they yet stand without, and when the dream of separation ends, I cause their return unto myself. I AM the Life, I AM the wheel of the Law, I Am the Way that leadeth beyond and there is none else. And I AM the Lord that healeth thee. I am thy God. I will come and heal Thee, who healeth all thy diseases, who satisfies thy mouth with goodness. who restoreth thy youth like the eagle. I Am the Lord thy God who brought thee out of the land of Egypt. Thou shalt have no other God's before me. I am the Lord that is my name. My glory you shall not give to another, neither shall you give my praise. God in the midst of us now is guiding us. And just do a very simple thing and realize God's healing Love is flowing through you now saturating your whole being. And God's Love dissolves everything unlike itself. It has neither height nor depth, neither length nor breadth, neither comes nor goes. It fills all space and ancients called it Love and he that dwells in Love, dwells in God and God in him. So, God's Love is saturating your whole Soul. He restoreth my Soul.

Divine Love

By: Dr Emmet Fox (1886-1951)


My soul is filled with Divine Love,
I am surrounded by Divine Love.
I radiate Love and Peace to the whole world.
I have conscious Divine Love.
God is Love, and there is nothing in existence but God and His Self-expression.
All men are expressions of Divine Love; therefore, I can meet with nothing but the expressions of Divine Love.
Nothing ever takes place but the Self-expressing of Divine Love.
All this is true now.
This is the actual case, the actual state of affairs.
I do not have to try to bring this about, but I observe it already in being now.
Divine Love is the actual nature of Being.
There is only Divine Love, and I know this.
I perfectly understand what Divine Love is.
I have conscious realization of Divine Love.
The Love of God burns in me for all humanity.
I am a lamp of God, radiating Divine Love to all whom I meet, to all whom I think of.
I forgive everything that can possibly need forgiveness-positively everything.
Divine Love fills my heart, and all is well.
I now radiate Love to the whole universe, excluding no one.
I experience Divine Love.
I demonstrate Divine Love.
I thank God for this.

This may mean that we need to silence these other “voices” by recognizing that God’s goodness is the only message we want to receive, and it is the only one that’s relevant to our situation. As we silence the material senses, we will be better able to hear God’s guidance and to see His goodness at work in our lives.

DON'T WORRY

The don't worry movement, a wave of spiritual emancipation: A gospel of Christian optimism

Theodore Frelinghuysen Seward,  published 1898


Spiritual Exercises

The spiritual exercises of St. Ignatius.

Have you heard of this before? I had not until recently, as a result of one of my deep searches for Truth. It appears to me that the Catholic Church has held these writings in high regard but thought the messages contained were of only of service to the priestly not the masses. I believe there in contains much for all. Certainly food for all. Food for thought.

Worth exploring

On my quest for truth, I am continually being made aware of the illuminated visions and paths of so many that came before me here on earth. Many mystic traditions, hidden, now revealed anew.

The similarities are striking. The stories told reverberate the same Truth. So many ask how can this be? Did these sages of old learn this wisdom from one another? Most likely not as vast expanses of time, land, and water separate these wisdom traditions. Many of which have been lost for ages. Hidden then lost. Appearing again to new eyes and new hearts, for those with ears to hear and eyes to see. 

So what then could be their common source? I say, THE SOURCE OF ALL.

My most recent interest of inquiry is the Kabbalah, the mystic tradition of Judaism. Kabbalah states that the Creator created all the worlds simultaneously, including our world, and we human beings have to use Kabbalah in our world, the finite material world. In order to further advance our understanding of the wisdom of Kabbalah, we need to lift our mind's eye above the horizon of our material world. Kabbalah clarifies our perception of reality. Below I have linked the book, The Kabbalah - The Mystic Quest in Judaism By Christian David Ginsburg, published in 1865, which I am just beginning to read in an attempt to grasp the spiritual insights therein.

coincidence = synchronicity

What a coincidence.
What about those seemingly random concurrently occurring events?
Are they really random?
Nope, not at all.

LIFE is so much more than a series of random acts and events. 
There exists a greater unseen force working behind the scene. 
As I have grown an understanding of the value of such phenomena,
I pay careful attention to each occurrence which comes to my awareness.
The words of others which follow best explain my own current understanding.

Carl Jung called these meaningful coincidences in seemingly random events synchronicity.
When you begin seeing coincidences as life opportunities, every coincidence becomes an opportunity for creativity. Every coincidence becomes an opportunity for you to become the person the universe intended you to be.  - Deepak Chopra, SPONTANEOUS FULFILLMENT OF DESIRE - Harnessing the Infinite Power of Coincidence

-------------
Synchronicity is the coming together of inner and outer events in a way that cannot be explained by cause and effect and that is meaningful to the observer. -- Carl Jung
------------
 Synchronicity is usually confirmation of whatever it is you are engaged in at the moment. Many people who continually experience meaningful coincidences, acknowledge them to be a kind of personal guidance. The perfect timing arrivals by the right person at the right place is commonly regarded as providential. They are paths our lives may take into the future and by which our personal destinies evolve. People who accept synchronicities as guidance embrace “the authentic life,” which is following our own truth, regardless of the consequences. This is the high destiny that the ancient Greeks called moira which is offered to every human. All synchronicities are indeed signs pointing us in a specific direction at the most opportune moment.

Synchronicity happens to everyone but the person far best qualified to comprehend them is the one whom they occur to. They are personal gifts from a great, caring intelligence responsible for the destiny of the universe. The full appreciation of synchronicity is nothing less than our personal connection with the higher intelligence of the universe. Synchronicities can be seen as little miracles through which an unseen and non-forceful consciousness manifests itself into our lives.

http://www.mindreality.com/synchronicity-meaningful-coincidence-in-life

--------------
Synchronicities are events that happen when the universe is trying to tell you something, just as a signpost or mile marker would give you information while traveling in a car. Amazing situations happen when your inner awareness changes. Your energetic thoughts and intents and direction of interests and desires will align with all the natural vibrations around you coalescing into a harmony of vibrational relationships.


The Universe is always willing and waiting to show you something wonderful. Synchronicities bring to light information for your waking consciousness along with your sub/unconscious aspects of your selves gently guiding and directing you to what is in alignment with your own personal growth. Synchronicities whisper into your soul a hint for you to watch and wait. "Expect the unexpected!"

What Does It Mean to Seek the Lord?

The great promise to those who seek the Lord is that he will be found. “If you seek him, he will be found by you” (1 Chronicles 28:9). And when he is found, there is great reward. “Whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him” (Hebrews 11:6). God himself is our greatest reward. And when we have him, we have everything. Therefore, “Seek the Lord and his strength; seek his presence continually!”  - John Piper

Ignorance speaking

This video made me mad.
The makers of this video twist tales to breed fear and hatred.
I thought about ranting about it on the video site but instead chose to post it here.

Each one of us is first a spiritual being.
We are spiritual beings made in the image of God having a human "skin on" experience.
Sadly most of us are really unaware and out of touch with our true spiritual nature.
Dogma has managed to keep us all in line and out of touch with this touch stone.

When someone calls on spiritual help the spirits they attract are "like minded" to them.
If one is in a higher more realized spiritual state then they are assured to attract the energy of other spirits with higher vibrations whether the spiritual being has "skin on" or not. Hearing someone talk about Spirits may be spooky to another if they have not developed their innate spiritual abilities. There is so much more to life than we can see with our eyes. When one awakens to this realm, one's world expands in wondrous ways. Not scary at all. Actually it's very comforting. It's the unknown that's always the scariest in life.

Rest assured of this: Spirits are not the enemy. Not bad, evil or demonic.
That's just plain ignorance speaking.
