Ah, Beloved,
Be very clear in this: the God Consciousness within, when once you invite It to work through you in your life and the lives of others, will ignore your personal feelings. You may be faced with someone you love very much who does not welcome your prayerful help, and whom God does not urge you to pray for at that time. You may be faced with an individual whose personal traits or ambitions you find distasteful, but whom God Consciousness within asks you to pray for. In either case, your task is to be obedient to the vow to serve as a clear conduit for prayerful Light to shine wherever and whenever God finds it appropriate.
For only that Great Omnipotence can see all the effects and consequences.
Obey, child. Obey, and walk in Love.
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
The highlighter that you need to use when studying any inspiration text is your own response. If you are seeing a phrase in scripture, or a poem, or even a road sign, or an arrangement of mountains, and you suddenly feel the Peaceful Presence of God welling up in you, stop and absorb it. Ponder the words, ponder the outline, feel the Presence and the Love, and listen.
Listen and obey. And remember that you cannot see your new good story unless you accept a new good story for everyone in your new good story. Let them ALL have good news, and you will, too. That is the Allowing that heals.
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
When all the things that you can do or say for someone who is in pain are not enough, then release your intent to the Divine Helper within you. There, within, a spark of Life that is the same as the spark of Life in the other person will hear, and communicate, your help. All beings are connected, and whether or not the conscious mind of the other can hear it, when you send love and comfort from the spark within you to the spark within them, it is received, and it does have an effect.
Do not despair if you do not see immediate outward results. Just keep sending your good wishes from the heart of your Divine Self, and know that it is helping to soften, and fill with Peace, the other heart.
We see the light grow there right away. Trust us,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
The Divine Source is fearless.
Know that Quality to be a part of what you are made of as Soul, and use it. Be not afraid to take charge of your experience of life. Take dominion, take control, so long as you always check first with your Inner Guidance, and follow the Golden Rule.
Gently, lovingly, assert your own needs and fulfill them, so that your Joy can overflow and be a Flowing to others experiencing this, the great overlapping dream of life. The more who flow in Joy, the greater the Flow of the Divine that can make the dream a gentler and uplifted one.
In the Oneness of Love,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
Be not afraid that your yearnings are not heard. God knows your Heart and has put His/Her Perfect Ear and Voice there, to hear your questions and to give the Divine answers.
Be not afraid. Only continue yearning to know Love, and Love will, indeed, answer.
Giving Love before you receive it, and before any thanks comes, is the way to walk through your earthly moments. Giving BEFORE you receive is a demonstration of your trust in God’s Infinite Love and provision, and your understanding that you are really only under the Law of God, that is Plenty, is Harmony, is Joy, and Dominion.
Be at Peace, now, Child, and rest today in quiet Grace,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
Do not doubt yourself.
For, to doubt yourself is to doubt God, which supplies all that you need to be the True You. If God asks you to be good and generous and forgiving and kind, you DO have it within you to do that. You will be, and are, supplied with the wisdom and strength and impulse and means to be those things in your heart, and to act upon them in whatever way is appropriate in the moment and for yourself and for others.
We assure you that small words and thoughts and acts of goodness that you offered yesterday had a good effect. Today will be the same. Even if you cannot immediately, humanly, see the results of your giving of your awareness of the constant Presence of God, We can. It happens.
So soldier on with the Light and with Love. You are part of a Whole, and We are Glad and it is Good.
Be with Us in this Gladness.
ANGELS
This is how it feels when I pray for you.
September 2004
Ah, Beloved,
Letting your heart not be troubled, by turning to your trust of Loving Spirit’s Voice within, can only happen if you truly trust. Establishing that trust must happen by practicing making that connection, and feeling the Presence sustaining and guiding you.
Practice, practice, practice. It may seem like a duty or chore at first, to practice stilling your thoughts and communing with the Source, but once you begin to feel the bliss and surety that comes of that connection, it will become your very favorite thing to do.
We will help you. Ask us.
This is not just for beginners. It is for always.
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
After you begin your day by giving over your “personal will” to God’s Will, to Divine Design Central, then, be approachable.
Be approachable, for you never know, as you go through the minutes and hours of your day, what or whom will be the means through which the Great Designer demonstrates to you the most wonderful part you have to play, today, in the best Design for all. Be open to receive, be approachable, be open minded and ready to be delighted by how God finds a way to lovingly answer your call to let Divine Will, God’s Will, replace your human dream with the Dream that is best for All.
Turn over your will to Will all day long, each hour, each minute, without ceasing,
Lovingly, not grudgingly, let the Will be done,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
Remember that “I Am that I Am” is a name of the Great Causal Force.
As a projection of that and Its elements and qualities, you are what It is. Therefore, any sentence you think or speak that starts out “I am…” should ends with things that are true of that Loving Source.
If you say “I am angry”, you are speaking a falsehood about yourself. Turn it around RIGHT AWAY, and say “I am Calm and Forgiving”, and keep saying it until you feel that way. If you are thinking “I am lost”, start saying and thinking “I am found, and clearly guided”, until you are feeling ready to accept that loving guidance.
You get the picture. Make up a list of the qualities that comprise the Goodness of the Center of All, and when you are tempted to say “I am…”, make sure you finish the thought with a quality that reflect the Glorious Being of which you are one little facet.
And then behold the wholeness in others as well,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
That which is Love, and which is made of Love as Itself, remains. It is as it always was, and always will be. This is the thing to turn to, and to look for in yourself and in others. This is the thing to let flow through your thoughts and actions and image of who you are, for It is the only truly renewable thing. Love, Love, Love Divine.
It renews Itself all the time.
When you feel hate or anger or even a slight resentment, you are putting energy and effort into something that only drains and kills. If you want to feel constantly renewed and well and whole, then Love, Love, Love, and the Divine will flow through you, as you, and show you that you, and all else It has Thought up, are Divine.
This is your real job. This is your real purpose. This is what it means to be Divine.
SPIRIT
Ah, Beloved,
The first step in making a new plan is leaving behind the old one, Love. Ask for Divine Help in letting old habits and ways and assumptions fall away, for even small ones that linger can keep you from seeing the new world that can be yours in full surrender to the Plan that is Best for all.
To fully surrender, you must ponder that phrase “Best for all”.
Do you realize how much non-blame that takes?
We assure you, it is not as difficult as it seems to view all as forgiven, when you realize the nature of the earth dream by letting the Divine give you glimpses of Reality. Expect It. Don”t reject It for the small whims of earth.
Our Love walks with you,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
Male, female, genderless, all Good Qualities come of God.
“As Its image, I can let all Good shine through me.”
“All Intelligence, Grace, Harmony, Effervescence, Soul and Love, and all, all, Good can shine through me. I just have to agree. I can just joyfully let It all shine through me.”
O, Beloved, God is so very grateful when you do this, for then the time-bound evolution of Consciousness leaps forward. Do you not want it to leap more quickly? Look around you. Help it leap forward to demonstrations of All-Goodness, please.
You will Love it.
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
What you love and appreciate will love and appreciate you in return.
But it must be with sincerity. Do you want to be Blessed in order to share the Truth, and pass Blessings onward? Or do you want to be Blessed for momentary pleasure? Pleasure is a good part of Creation, but seek the enduring pleasure of Divine Love, and it will enrich the momentary pleasures so much that you no longer recognize them as what you formerly knew them to be.
Nothing can really be fully appreciated until you experience it with the Love of God filling your heart. We know that you know how it feels to more fully enjoy a rainbow if you have a friend or a lover to stand next to you and share it. Doing ANYTHING with the Love of God sharing the fullness of your heart will be even more satisfying than that.
Share all with God and God will share all with you.
This is Truth, Beloved,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
The Love of God in you will set you free from all errors.
But, it IS a two-way street, Beloved. God Loves you implicitly and Completely.
You must Love Him/Her just as much.
That is the Truth that will correct all error thoughts in your mind, and cause you to absolutely awaken to the Truth of Your Spiritual Reality. Love God, Beloved, and allow yourself to feel the Love of God that is already enveloping you, and set your Self free to Be, to Be, to Be.
“I Love God, the One Cause, and I allow God to Love me.”
We dwell in It, Love. Trust Us, It IS the Truth.
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
When your own meditations and prayers have become snagged on the thorns of mortal worries or fears or old anger, do not hesitate to turn to those who have dedicated themselves to staying grounded and rooted in the Sense of Divine Omnipresence.
Look to them like many have looked to a strong tree during a hurricane, that they could hold onto, and shelter under, until they felt full of Life and Strength again, themselves. The wild flurry of human thoughts, like the wind of a storm, can try to wobble you off the path of walking with, and towards a greater knowing of, the Divine Mind. Turn to a strong tree, then, Beloved, and hold on. Whether you turn to a prayer practitioner, or to a rabbi or priest or shaman or teacher of your own faith, or whether you turn to a good friend who is just more deeply rooted in the Calm Truth, right now, than you are, or whether you turn to the old scriptures that give you a sense of being led by the Glow of Love, do not be ashamed to ask for help in reaching Help.
Yes, each individual must find his or her own exact place in the great Glad Mind of God, but there is good truth in reaching for the stabilizing Presence of another’s Practice, so that human frenzies will not blow you off course again. Be not ashamed, and be not afraid, and remember that you serve to tether others, just as others have served to tether you, and that all are interconnected, and none will fully reach God until all do.
No one is left out of Love, in the end, for It Is All,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
When enough practice, or an epiphany of Voice or Vision, uplifts you into a clarity and a discernment of the Constant Presence of Good Spirit, Who is always with you and around you, then you will be able to silently walk and work with God, as with a very old Wonderful Friend.
Wordlessly, and without ritual or fanfare, you will Know the Thoughts of God, the desires of God. And you will share them completely and utterly. And Gladness will be the natural substance of your communion.
Picture this. It is achievable.
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
God’s Love will lift you higher in consciousness, joy, ability and sense of well-being than any worldly and visible thing possibly can.
Turn to It, Beloved. Turn to It, and as and when It has fully filled your awareness, you can still choose to keep and explore and expand any worldly thing that still has meaning or value to you. And, you will find yourself delightfully Guided to the other tasks and words and events that God wants you to participate in, and to use your persona to shine through.
Be what God knows you to be, a good and worthy expression of Soul, and be glad.
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
No matter what you are told about the games that are played in the human condition, in order to win titles or provisions or a certain kind of relationship, keep God’s Divine Voice, whispering Lovingly and Wisely in your heart, as your top advisor. No human advisor can see the full picture of God’s Good Soul plan for your unique and Beloved Spirit Self.
Do not be mesmerized by human opinions and loud voices and famous influencers. Turn to God, check in with God, and trust only the choices that feel aligned with the Calm Harmony of Love’s Mission to expand Blessings for all, and that are right for YOU.
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
“I Am my Beloved’s, and my Beloved is mine,” is the song of Solomon but think of it not as an earthly love song, but as a Love Song from God/Goddess/Maker to YOU.
Ergo, “I am the Maker Whose Love belongs to you. I love you completely, and you are my image, my child. I will take care of you always, Spirit born of Spirit, just Love me in return, as I created you to do.”
AND, think of it in the plural, Beloveds. You are all spirits of One Spirit, you are all, collectively, the Maker’s Image, and Child. You are ALL God’s Beloveds, and He/She Loves you all equally, and well.
“WE are our Beloved’s, and Our Beloved is OURS.” Remember that, dear reader, dear seemingly “singular” beloved, when you would feel ire or blame or anger for another. ALL are Beloved of God, in their pure and Spiritual Form. See them as God sees them, and your job will be done.
As Ever,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
Stand firm on the foundation of Harmony in your own thoughts, and you will be able to cast the stout rope of Harmony to those in seeming need around you.
It is a lovingly simple solution, time tested,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
Grievances are like smog that hides the light of the sun.
Let the Wind of Love blow your grievances away, and let the ever-present Light of Soul shine, shin, shine in your life.
Expect Good, and Good is seen,
Look for Good, and your ability to see it increases.
ANGELS
We use the name “Angels” because it approximates the understanding and concept that many people hold of what We are. We are the fine Thoughts of God, moving around within the misty error-dream of human perception, adjusting and revealing and helping to show the wondrous ideas of God that are all real men and real women and elements of Life.
Within each is an archangel, ready to be perceived and appreciated and to Love and Be Love and be Beloved.
Show forth the Angel of your Self today, and look for the Angels of others.
Look, Look, Look, dear one, with expectation of the Divine, and you will See.
Ah, Beloved,
Give yourself the gift of recognizing that when characters in your play seem to be doing either good or ill, their Real Selves were dancing in the purity of the Light.
See the Light of them, Beloved. See the Light.
See the Light of them, that they may see the Light of you.
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
At this moment, is it not a Joy to have Loving words of Spirit assure you that you are Loved? Is it not a reassurance to have Your Unseen Support call you Beloved?
At this moment, is it not a Blessing to take a moment for yourself and remind yourself that you are, in fact, a Beloved Child of God? Is it not, at this moment, empowering to remember that what God is, and has, is also available to you?
Many people think of humanity as the prodigal son who tried to go far away from his Parent God, the prodigal son who went far away and wasted his talents and had to come begging back. The happy ending of course is that the Parent of course welcomed back the Child, whose consciousness and focus had gone awry.
But there was also the other Child. And the Parent pointed out to the other Child—”All that I have is thine. All that I am is thine.” Think about that today, Beloved. Now, at this moment, all the knowledge and inspiration and courage and perpetuity, and the momentum of Love, Love, Love, that is God’s, IS also yours. You are made of what God is made of. You can try to turn away and do everything on your own, like the prodigal Child, but you can also realize that the Infinite Source shines Its Light and talents and Goodness AS you, and you can be those things now, at this moment. Right now, at this moment, you are also the other Child, who never dreamed he left “Home”, and who has all that God/Spirit has.
“Today I will let myself reflect the Goodness of God.” At this moment, and at every moment, nothing else matters but being the honorable reflection of Goodness Itself.
Lovingly,ANGELS
For my earthly father, who passed over the bridge of earthly illusion today, 8/6/12.
Ah, Beloved,
Speak to, and listen to, the Voice of your Divine Heart as though It were your very best friend, or your lover, or your trusted spouse, for It IS these things. It WANTS your happiness, It wants your Highest Good, and the Good of all of those around you.
Be willing to listen to that Voice, that Friend, and willing to take Its advice. It truly is that simple. Free will is for choosing when to listen to Divine Will. Everyday language will do. Silence and listening will do even better. Listen, trust, obey, and be Glad.
Glad for every help you are to God,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
One of the very hardest things in the earth dream is to have reached, even for just a moment here and there, the feel of the Peace of the Infinite Divine in your heart, and then find that those whom you love do not want to hear about it. To work to maintain that ineffable peace for yourself is the thing you will most desire.
To watch those whom you love struggle and strive, even if you suggest that they also seek peace, is a sorrow indeed. But, you must turn it around, Love, and realize that their discontent is another lesson for you. Learn to be an ever clearer conduit of Peace, so that your very presence for the Presence will help them find their way, too, to that which you seek. Remember, even though they are themselves, they are also actors in your play, and whatever you would wish to teach or give them, you must also give yourself.
We are with you,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
Let there be a new way of thinking about your thinking.
You know all the words. You know all the intellectual tricks of thinking of your thoughts being replaced by the Wise, Calm, Omniscient Thoughts of God, in order to see that changing your thoughts changes your life.
So, why is it so hard, some days?
Because you don”t really believe God Loves you, holds you blameless, and wants your joy and happiness. Believe it, love. Go back to that basic, today. Remind yourself over and over that God Loves you, because it is True.
As do We, as a part of God’s Gracious Plan,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
God’s Law of adjustment is always in play, working to reveal the natural order of Harmony beneath the swirling mist of earthly illusion.
Look for the Harmony again today. Be a witness to the Truth of Beauty and Calm Joy.
It does exist. It is what is Real. The more you think about It and look for It, the more you will see It and feel It.
God is counting on you to do this.
You agreed, years ago. Just do it.
ANGELS, with you in Love.
Ah, Beloved,
Yes, yes, yes. Keep it primary in your mind and heart that there is only one Will, and that is the Will of the Creative Source.
Those who speak proudly of their “human will” are speaking like apples on a tree which arrogantly state “I can fall anytime I want,” ignoring the fact that they only are hanging there because the Tree holds them up, the Tree grew them, the Tree, and Its Sap, sustain them.
Have mercy and compassion for those who still believe themselves to be free-floating apples in the air of the Cosmos, but never forget, for yourself, what lovely Order holds you all in place until you ripen. That is the only Truth to pray from, and to be in awareness of, as you thank the Sap for feeding you all.
Ah, even as buds you were all beautiful,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
Praise and gratitude will return you to the Calmness you need to clearly hear inspiration.
Anytime the confusion or annoyances or hubbub of daily life have you feeling uncentered, re-center yourself with praise and thanks. Remembering the anchor of the Great Love that holds you, and being very, very glad of that, will hold you still enough to feel the comfort and ideas you need.
Be still, be glad, be grateful, and be certain that what your Best Self know, your conscious self can know also.
We sit quietly with you, and hear Truth,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
The Purity and the Completeness of the Source that shines forth the Universes and the ideas they contain, including you, is a thing difficult for the human materially-trained mind to fully comprehend.
But if you approach it in sweet simplicity, assuring yourself playfully and trustingly, “I am the Beloved Child of the One Source, I am light reflecting the perfection of the Life Light”, then you allow the energy of the form and function you seem to be to function harmoniously and smoothly.
Play with this today, Child. Bless yourself and everything and everyone you see, “I am as God Sees me.”
ANGELS, watching over you.
Ah, Beloved,
“Show me today, and every day, dear God, that I, and all of those I know and see, are being led to the full revealing of our Harmony in Thee.”
For is that not what you really want to See, darling?
Live in Love and Gratitude, and watch and See,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
I AM with you, never further than a breath away. I AM with you, never further than a thought away.
Open to My Thoughts. Welcome them. Let the sweet Silence and Truth of them be the Peaceful Oasis that sits in the center of your spinning human thoughts, and retreat to that Oasis. Enough of the merry-go-round, now. Enough.
Be at Peace with Me, and wait and See what the Invincibility and Omnipotent Omnipresence can do, for it does Govern all Hearts, even when they are unaware of Its existence. When one who knows of Its existence and trusts It turns to It, the Flow of Wisdom IS received.
Be at Peace this day,
SPIRIT
Ah, Beloved,
Closing the physical eyes does help immensely, in the beginning of your own thought training, to focus on the Inner Divine Truth instead of the world of appearances. With practice, no outer thing will be able to distract you from the Holy Sight.
But if you have not reached that point, and wish to connect deeply with the Presence with your physical eyes open, try looking steadily at some object of natural beauty, or with concentration on some very useful object. By keeping the gaze steady, and thinking about the Beauty and usefulness and Order of the Divine, you can connect even in those circumstances.
Try it. You will see.
We are with you,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
The Divine Creator and Maintainer is completely accessible to all.
Whether, in your current state of consciousness, you have one leg or none, are single and lonely, or saintly or debauched, or happy or sad, or too busy to know how you feel, too young for words, or too lettered to listen to the opinions of others, the Infinite All can be turned to, when you are ready.
There It Is. Quiet. Ever patient, in Its No-Time (or, from your human perception, where time moves so slowly that it seems like no-time), ready for you to remember, “Where you are, there I Am. Where I Am, there you are.”
Being and reflection, ever paired, and ever perfect, together in the Truth. Turn away from the lying senses, that would tell you there is no accessibility here, and know there is always that simple doorway that opens, as soon as you turn inward, and say with your heart, “Here I am.”, and wait for the echoing “Here I Am.”
No special ramps are needed. No special fixtures or waiting or titles or appointments. Just come. Come as you are, Beloved, and be greeted with open arms.
As ever, we hold open that door,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
Remember, again, that in Truth you are the wonderfully Loved, and fully provided for and guided, Child of the Divine Mind.
Now, the costume you wear in this earth play, and the role you take on here and now, are meant to be happy and good. Ask for the stage whispers each day, to help you know, and be given, that which is yours to wear (as idea of flesh and clothing), and to say and to do, and to ENJOY, as your part of the Divine’s Plan to lead all of Its parts to Joy, and then to full awakening.
Ask and it is given, Beloved. But ask in Joy and in Trust,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
Mighty seem to be the proud, but True Might is in the Gentleness of God.
Let the times come when you see how the gentle loving word turns away ire. Let the proof come as you care more about maintaining Peace than you do about being right, or about having credit for your works, and you will begin to understand the magnitude of the gentle, gentle Plan that God has enacted to awaken those who are sleeping and dreaming that they are separate and alone, instead of living and moving and having their Lives in the Gentle Love of Divine Thought.
Think on these things, when next you are tempted to return rudeness for rudeness, and allow instead the forgiving and compassionate way of Divine Love to be your response. You may teach with humor, or with surprise, to let error be unveiled, but follow the advice of Spirit’s Voice within to know how to gently use those tools.
All tools are for opening True Sight to Divine Reality,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
“Beneath this dust, All is Good.”
Can you choose to hold that Thought in your mind and heart all day, today?
The Power of Truth is great, but you must choose to keep It in mind, just as a mathematician must keep the correct multiplication table in mind when solving long equations.
Lovingly,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
Let there be no recriminations of your own lapses wasting time. Just as if you were trying to watch a dearly loved movie or game through a crack in a fence, but could only see it clearly when looking straight through the opening, and would quickly re-align your viewing position if you got jostled out of place, line up your moments and days.
Line up your days by getting in line with Divine Sight, giving It permission to guide you, and seeing from Its forgiving and Delighted point of View, and so let your self see the Play clearly. There is no other way, Beloved. Do not waste a moment in regret, just line your self up quickly, quickly again.
Discerning your Goodness always,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
There is so much to be learned by watching how others love. Yes, we want you to always, above all, listen to the Inner Divine Voice, and Love as It tells you to Love, but it is also important to honor that others find creative ways of expressing that Love.
Honor them. Love them. Learn from them. All must learn from and teach one another, even as they all take instruction within from the Source of all Love.
And, Beloved, enjoy them. Enjoy the Infinite variety of expression. You can do this if you set aside judgment and evaluation, and just observe and love.
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
Many interpret the commandment about not coveting thy neighbors” possessions as a simple rule about not falling into the negative emotion of envy, or as about not imagining that certain objects will bring you lasting happiness. While both of those rules do help one towards the Truth, it is also true that another meaning of the passage can help you help God on another level.
Do not covet the role of another. Accept the role that you can play to bring the highest Good to yourself and to those around you, in order to most shorten the time that any must suffer in the realm of illusion that they are separated from Divine Love. There IS great Joy in pursuing and achieving a dream of doing certain things in earthly life, but if many clues and circumstance place one in a role and character that is not in complete accordance with one’s childhood dreams, examine whether you might not have been “called” by the Divine to play a certain role in the Divine Plan, and that if you spend your time envying the role or title of another, you will hold up the perfect enactment of the Best Plan.
To re-phrase this, if you have always dreamed of being an amazing engineer, but find yourself cast in the role of teacher of students of mathematics, then do not covet the roles of the engineers that have “married” and embraced the engineering trade. Certainly, if God puts it into your heart to explore changing careers, do so. But if all that you do still leads you to remain a teacher, then embrace the marriage of your talents to your tasks, and perform them lovingly and graciously, trusting that the Peace that the Divine gives you in your heart is the Peace that leads to the greatest Peace for all, more quickly.
If God walked into your room tonight, and said, “Will you give up your personal dream of breeding a new kind of butterfly, in order to be the pilot on a new kind of airplane, a pilot whose bravery in one crucial moment will not only save hundreds of thousands from their earthly dream of pain and death, but will also shorten by a millennia the mass thought that the world must be a cruel place?”, what would you say?
Be willing to not covet the role your neighbor has been asked to play, Beloved. Trust the Great Play Writer. Trust the Director. Trust. Play the role you have been cast in with Love, and know you are Loved as well.
We thank you for each scene that has been Divine,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
Human imaginings will never outweigh God. They cannot, being only imaginings, outweigh God’s Reality of a beautiful reflection that reflects All of Itself.
All, the “Allness” of the infinite reflection of an Infinite God, is already “mended” from the little error that made some parts of the reflection seem fuzzy. If you feel, or imagine, that you are still caught in the fuzzy part, know that it is not True.
Close your eyes, be still, and know that you are already caught up again, like a tiny dropped stitch in the Great Weaving, and that you are a part of the Ever Lovely Tapestry.
Although the day outside is lovely, close your eyes and see the Greater Loveliness,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
Let not the journey discourage you. There is no doubt in the Mind of Creation that all is well in your progress, for in the Place of no time, all has already occurred, and you, and your Maker have both been true to the Word of Life that is you.
Be at Peace, Beloved, and know that all things now have origin in learning and growing of Love. Keep your eyes on the complete Love you are unfolding to, and be not afraid, ever. There is nothing to be afraid of, for you are a part of Life ever-existent, and will always be. It IS You and it is Me, and It will always Be.
Halleluiah,
SPIRIT
Ah, Beloved,
There is no hurry. The Divine Source is securely happy in you and of you and around you, as Spirit-Child within Itself. It knows you will always reawaken to your safe and glorious existence within It, and is not afraid that you can actually separate yourself from It by dreaming you are far off and adrift in a body made of dust.
Therefore, relax into the Knowledge of God’s Love. Relax in to the Provision of His/Her Sustenance. Let yourself be carried, knowing that the Carrier loves to hold and help you, and replies to your “I Love You” with an “Of Course—for you are made of my Love, to do just that.”
Endlessly,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
How brief are the moments of the life that is lived without the purpose of the Mind of Creation behind it. Let go of the small issues of the life that the worldly has taught you to value, and begin valuing what truly counts—learning to Love.
When was the last day you made it your sole goal to simply love everything around you unconditionally?
Can you do that today? Can you pick a day to do it soon? The days spent like that are the days when you step closer to an awareness of the ever-presence of the Divine Presence. Are you ready for that, or aren”t you? Only you can choose the timing.
Always ready to help you with that,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
When you discern the shadow of an error upon another, and therefore take it upon yourself, like a tick that you have pulled from their body, then what do you do with it?
If you leave it upon your own hand, it could burrow into you. You must cast it into the Ocean of Love , so that it is completely rendered harmless, and both you and the other person are freed to swim delightedly in the Ocean of God .
Swim free today, Love. Why not?
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
There is no Truth greater than “All IS Love”.
You may not intellectually understand the Power of thinking or saying this throughout your day, or turning to it in moments when you feel assailed by uneasy thoughts or disconcerting images, but the Power behind those words is there nonetheless. Use It. It is Love Itself and It wants to Help you and support you and be with you and near your heart.
It is not a magic formula to be used without thinking or feeling. It is the claim of the Truth of what you, and what everything, actually IS. So, befriend It. Claim It, and call to It, and say, say, say, in every day a fresh way, “All IS Love”.
In Love, and as Love,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
As every teacher on earth knows, there come moments when you are weary of teaching, or when you are tempted to begin to whine with the students, or to let their errors go unremarked and uncorrected.
But joining them in their errors will not help. Rather, train yourself, at the first hint of weariness of mind and heart, to turn to the fount that gives forth endlessly, and knows no weariness. Turn to the Gladness that holds you in sustainable orbit within the infinite Light. Let yourself ride for a while in silence, one light among infinite lights, and be renewed and refreshed, and ready to teach and lead again.
ANGEL
Ah, Beloved,
You can know, and stay aware of, the Divine Plan to expand Love into all areas and times that seem dark, but only God can oversee all the small steps of that Infinite Complexity.
When Holy Voice whispers to you to do or say something, be content to receive instructions bit by bit. God knows the way and will show the way as needed. Relax into the unfolding of each day, each mission for Spirit. Be glad that human fretting cannot interfere by trying to leap ahead to each phase of atonement.
If you are tempted to try to substitute a human plan for God’s Plan, remind yourself, “I am simply Love, like God. I am simply Love.”
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
Each and every sensibility that is an individualization of the One Cause is climbing a ladder back to that full awareness. Some are “ahead” of you on the climb, and some are “behind”, but all will achieve it, for they are already included in the Totality of God/All That Is. You cannot tell by worldly appearances where someone is on that ladder to Heaven, that Inner Mountain Climb, but you know that each one will begin it, and continue it until done, once they choose to begin.
You cannot MAKE anyone take that first step, Beloved. You can offer, and you can demonstrate, and you can let yourself be used to let a word or action of Divine Authority come through, but then you must let that one climb at his or her own pace.
Oh, how softly patient you must be, with yourself and others,
Practice that, and be Grateful for each step you gain,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
Thank-you. We are grateful to you. The Divine Whole, of which you are a part, is grateful to you for being a shining expression of What It Is.
We often tell you to be grateful, and to live with an attitude of gratitude, so that you will be open to receiving the flow of Life through you as Its expression, but you need to realize also how much We, and All That Is, are grateful to you.
Each time you perform an act of unrecognized kindness, it is important to the healing and awakening of all. Each time you catch yourself thinking a judgmental or angry thought about someone, and bless that person, silently or aloud, instead, we thank-you. Each time you recognize, with a softening of the heart in deep compassion, that the person before you is only acting inappropriately because he or she has been so deeply wounded by earthly life, we gratefully add your feeling of Compassion to the stockpile of It that serves the world.
So, Thank-you. Know that all the other facets of the Diamond of All That Is thank-you when you shimmer with the Pure Light that wants to re-light every cloudy and dim part that hides any part of Its Shine. We are grateful to you. We are grateful for you.
Always appreciating you, even as we guide,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
We would not wish to sound irreverent, but the human mind needs metaphors to understand the Infinite reach of God. Your consciousness dwells within that Great Consciousness, but your human perception could benefit from thinking of the Resource of God being like an ever-present backpack full of Good Qualities. It is invisible, but it is there. It is weightless, but it is supportive.
Need some inventiveness? Check the pack. Need some comfort? Look to the pack. Need some sense of direction? Let the pack whisper it to you.
It is a supply pack you cannot forget on a bench, and the airline cannot lose. It is the trusty bag of tools that is never empty or worn out.
Look to God, Beloveds. Look to God, for God has ways you have not yet even imagined.
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
“Allowing the Truth that the Divine Source Loves to see me happy, I place today softly and trustingly in Its Hands.
Today, I will think of myself not as a limited mortal body, but as a wonderful expression of the flowing Energy of Divine Joy.”
“And I will See marvelous results in all the aspects of my life.”
So be it, for so it is,
ANGELS
Dearly Beloved,
We see, and we know, how filled are all your moments with the tasks and obligations that you have taken on. We just wish to remind you that if you would only take a few moments, twice a day, to do the following, your serenity will increase.
1. Sit quietly and take three very deep and slow breaths into your belly and out again.
2. Ask for your own Divine Spirit to be with you. Or, ask for whatever loving Divine forces that you love and believe in, by whatever name, to be with you.
3. Send energy out. Imagine a beam of light, that is hope and compassion, moving from you to someone else, somewhere. The someone that you are sending energy to can be a family member, or a friend, or a stranger, or a group of strangers. If you find that thinking of a family member, or a lover, or friend brings up thoughts and emotions that interfere with your concentration, then think of strangers for now. Later, when you are more practiced at sending hope and forgiveness, you can send those feelings to people you are directly involved with. Send that beam of hope and light for just a minute or two to that unknown child across the world or next door, that is hungry or sad. Or send them to the people of a war-torn country that you wish you could comfort.
4. After you have sent energy outward, breathe again. Then ask your Spirit and its Infinite Source, to fill you with that Light that is hope and unconditional love. Concentrate on feeling yourself filled with that Loving Light for at least a full minute—or as long as you can concentrate on the feeling of that beam of Light filling you.
5. Breathe deeply and exhale slowly, feeling that Light that fills you. Picture a joyous thing as you feel that Light and as you breathe. Picture yourself laughing and feeling complete. Feel how that laughter would feel, moving up out of your belly and through your body and out into the air and light of the world.
6. As the feeling of your own laughter and joy fills you, count your blessings. Count just a few or count them all, for as long as you can hold your concentration. Feel and savor a few of the blessings that are yours in this life.
7. Open your eyes and look to your day with a joyous knowing that you are connected, by Love, to so much and to so many. Feel grateful to be alive, and honored to have choices.
Give yourself this gift. It will change your life for the better.
Ahhh, We love seeing you in joy,
Spirit
Ah, Beloved,
There is no hurry. If the flaring Presence of the Divine Impulse comes up within you and impels you to speak to someone or to reach out to them with help or hand right away, in a certain moment, then do so. But otherwise, keep remembering that there is no hurry in the Divine Mind in which you dwell.
Take that extra time to listen. Take that extra time, before you make commitments or give replies, to humbly seek the wisdom of the Inner Voice, and then obey Its guidance, rather than reacting from any immediate human emotion or grievance or excitement. Tenderly, wisely, and all-seeingly, It will guide you as no human wisdom can. It will help you achieve what must be solved. It will help you gather what needs to be together for the completion of any worldly task. Listen, Trust, Obey.
There is no hurry, today. Listen, Trust, Obey.
It is as we say,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
Try this—say nothing but “thank-you” for several days in a row.
You may be surprised to find that expressing only thanks is sufficient conversation for so many of the moments of your days.
As ever, thanking you for being you,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
Because you exist WITHIN the very substance of the Maker that thought you up, and Who thought up everything that you would need for His/Her story for you, everything you need for that pure Story is already around you. Once you completely believe that you exist WITHIN the Causal Force, then your sight (Sight) will open, and you will see each person, place, and thing, that are needed for you to act out your Divinely ordained role, pop into existence.
Be at peace with this, Beloved, and all will be well, as indeed it is already, for the Story of you was written long, long ago, and was declared Good. Call in the Presence, to help you see. As habitually as most reach for their glass spectacles to see more clearly, reach for the Presence Divine, THROUGH which you will be able to see/See all things clearly. Let It be the magnifying glass through which you peer, and let all things and events and persons pop into focus.
We love you more than you can imagine,
ANGELS
Ah, Ah, Beloved,
Yes, you want to be a transparency for the Light, allowing It to shine through you and as you, wherever you are, no matter what you are doing or whom you are speaking to. It is the function all must come to accept, and desiring it now is a gracious choice.
Do you understand what self-honesty this takes? You CAN do it, but be aware that it means being honest about when you feel the Presence and the Grace arising within you. It means being honest about when you are feeling the Peace of God within you. When you feel out of sorts, or if someone or something irritates you or annoys you, or if your prayers become perfunctory and no true Connection is felt, then be HONEST with yourself about these things, and become still. “BE STILL AND KNOW THAT I AM GOD.”
Be still, and know “I Am Thou”, until you feel truly aligned and within the Arms of Peace again. Taking time to do this, just when you think you do not have time to do this, will actually save you more time, and save you from more grief, than you can possibly imagine.
We are with you. Ask us for help. We never tire of helping,
For we also are Thoughts of God,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
The consequences of pondering the perfection of the One Source, and your perfection as an idea in that Source, are Goodness of Joy and experience.
The consequences of pondering all your mistakes and woes and failings are more of the same, until you learn to ponder and love, instead, the perfection of God, and Its lovely and lovable ideas, of which you, in essence, are one. Ponder God and ponder being loving and lovable, and see how you begin to feel from that.
It is easier than you think,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
There is no Truth but the One Truth and that is Love.
Ask the One what It Loves about you. Let today be a day when you hear the Quality of the Source that flows in excellence through you, and be it, be it, be it.
Thus is the Whole made, Beloved. Be the Quality of Love that you are meant to demonstrate, and Love it in yourself as the Maker does, and as you, and others, are meant to do.
Love yourself today, Beloved, and you will be refilled to Love others more cleanly and clearly.
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
Even as the certainty that what arises in you now is more important to pursue than anything you have ever undertaken in your life before, the “old reality” will pull at you. Stay very vigilant about the thoughts that would draw you into the past, whether in sorrow or in happy memory, or from the excuse of “learning from the past”.
Stay in Now, and be very aware of asking for Divine Guidance from that Overseer of the Immaculate Plan. Old habits will fall away more swiftly, as you are rewarded with little glimpses of Heaven on earth, as your focus shifts to understanding that your consciousness was, is, and ever shall be, part of the Infinite Whole.
Colors seem brighter, the pathetic is seen as but stage-dressing, and the sorrowful is recognized to be only smoke that tries to hide the brightness of All That Is, as you realize that your awareness only needed a tiny nudge, in order to see the Divine Order that held and holds all true things in place.
Whenever a thing or object or thought or person distresses, close your eyes and ask for True Sight.
We are there, and you will see us more and more often,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
Give away some objects today.
Savor your attachment to weightless, pure, ever-renewable Divine Love.
Divine Love moves with you wherever you go, easy to carry, untaxed, and free.
“Here I Am, Dear One, carry Me, carry Me. Firmly attached to thee.”
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved, if you only knew how We weep to see you suffer or even just not fully enjoy what is given you, all for a lack of learning the simple technique of turning to the Inner Soul Voice, and saying ìHelp.î ìThank-You for Helping me.î
We give thanks when you ask for Help, knowing that opens all right doors,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
How in order is your inner being? Your Divine Self wants to live there.
Let your Divine Self be a most honored and welcomed guest, so that, in its perfect harmony, it has a place of harmony to dwell. Do this in the same way that you would clean the house and yard, and stock the larder, for a beloved relative’s visit. Be happy even while you clean as you look forward to the loving time together. Tidy your mind and awareness.
Tidy it by giving time to honoring the Divine in yourself and in All. Tidy it by setting aside all gossip and moaning and blaming and self-berating. Tidy it by bringing forth encouraging words and setting your hands to works of joy. Tidy it by forgiving anything of the earth that you did, or another did, but that did not touch your Divine Selves.
O’ Beloved, you own Inner Guest comes. Be happy in every moment, for the truth is that your guest is with you even now, and just waits to dance in all the rooms of your self that have not yet been prepared.
We are getting the music ready,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
The wonderful demonstrations of training, and skills of earthly and bodily excellence, are certainly testimonies of gifts of the Qualities of God. Praise them, enjoy them.
But also praise and enjoy the unseen and subtle excellences that come from emulating God—the humble patience, the massive mercy, the complete wisdom, and the O’ So Unconditional Love.
There is no need to compete for the Glory of God’s Love. It is freely given to all.
Turn to It, and accept, for It is offered always.
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
Whenever there is doubt about your own ability to overcome a complete wave of discouragement when facing pain or lack, OR whenever there is a sweeping temptation to overindulge in the sweet sensations of life, remember that the Power of God within you is also there as a support and an advocate, not just as a tender lover and father/mother and provider.
Take that crucial moment to pause, and ASK for some of the Divine perspective to help you choose well, to give you strength to assess clearly and calmly, and the wonderful will to carry out and carry forward with your resolutions and answers.
ALL of your strength comes from the Divine Source. Why not call on It when you need It most?
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
Slow down, and savor. Slow down and savor.
As you appreciate what wonderful things and qualities and possibilities you and your life and those around you already have, more Good will come to you.
Slow down and savor and be Glad.
Gratefully assisting you,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
Let go of all rancor and irritation and the self, and do only as I say in each day, in each hour, in each moment.
Let go of what you think you desire, and just ask what I desire of you. I am that which requires your obedience to give you your pure happiness and peace, and I am the Self you need.
Be One with my pleasure and my Thoughts, and all is well all is well, all is well, and new, dear Child, dear Child of My Heart.
SPIRIT
Ah, Beloved,
When you have been praying for a beloved so long and so often, let go of the striving, and trust that God knows your heart and understands your yearnings. Give yourself a rest and trust quietly in God.
God understands your heart, and if you focus on gratefully and thankfully understanding God’s Heart, nothing else need be said or thought. God knows you want to see your family whole and happy. God knows you want to witness all peoples revealed as part of what is Light and Bright. God knows your heart.
Today, relax into the Omniscience of God, and feel how God will use your calm happiness to flow more of Its Presence into the human hearts and minds around you.
Be excellent at being Calm. That is a talent to cultivate.
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
Monitor your thoughts. If you slip into idle or gloomy ones, you are nudging closed the opening to the constant Flow of God’s Love. That Love, that support, never stops being available to you, but if you turn your attention away and become mesmerized into passivity, it is breaking the contact with Divine Spirit, to Be Loved, but also to LOVE in return.
Be an active part of your own destiny by staying completely open to, and aware of, God Consciousness.
We Love you so much.
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
When change comes, only the first step or two is hard. Loving Spirit provides the strength and the courage to go on those first few steps, and then, like a runner or a walker warming up to the track, you will find your rhythm and your flow, and go, go, go.
Be brave, knowing that the Divine Source IS your source of strength and supply and calm certainty, and ultimate freedom of Heart. Be Joyous of that, and keep, always, in your mind, the list of qualities that you have to draw upon from your Loving Source—the Love, the Inspiring Intelligence, the Harmonious Law, the Spirit of giving, giving, giving, and the Truth.
As ever,
ANGELS
We use the name “Angels” because it approximates the understanding and concept that many people hold of what We are. We are the fine Thoughts of God, moving around within the misty error-dream of human perception, adjusting and revealing and helping to show the wondrous ideas of God that are all real men and real women and elements of Life.
Within each is an archangel, ready to be perceived and appreciated and to Love and Be Love and be Beloved.
Show forth the Angel of your Self today, and look for the Angels of others.
Look, Look, Look, dear one, with expectation of the Divine, and you will See.
Ah, Beloved,
“Love heals me.”
Let that be your pure thought today. Let the Spirit and the Truth of It float you aloft like a bright balloon that has been filled for the sky.
Do not become lost in definitions of “love” or “me”, just let the revealing of Wholeness, that is healing. work Its way with you as you clear away all thought except “Love heals me, Love heals me, Love heals me.”
“Gently, gently, I am healed now, in Love, by Love, And Love leads me to any other thoughts I need. Love heals me continually. Love heals me. Love leads me. Love is Mine.”
Softly now,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
Think of your own best, and most inventive, moments. Think about how your ideas flow into one another, using what is at hand, to create a wonderful and fun solution to an immediate need.
For instance, if you have started the preparations to cook a pot of chili for dinner, and suddenly discover that you are out of your usual spices or beans, you let your eyes travel over what else in is your pantry, and your thoughts review what is in your freezer or garden or easily borrowed from your neighbor, and then you invent. And perhaps the amazing new dish you come up with becomes a favorite thing for you and your family.
Now realize that you are a wonderful idea in the Divine Mind. As that idea floats near other ideas there, new combinations are found. New ways are created in the dance of ideas, for each idea to shine and be supported.
When you, as an idea in the Divine Mind, “speak” a request, like a cook deciding she will make chili for dinner, then the Mind of All sorts through and swirls Its other ideas into place, to help that request take place. It may not happen in the way that you imagined, and that is why it is so important to let your requests be open-hearted and unlimited. Let the Divine surprise you with a novel solution. Let the Divine surprise you with an unexpected route to Joy.
Just expect the Joy, for that is what the Divine wants for all Its ideas,
And you are One,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
Ask for Help.
When your own willpower falls short, as you try to treat yourself with affirmations that “only the Light is Real”, ask for Help. After a time, you will stop thinking that your own human willpower is ever enough, and you will begin to turn to Divine Help right away, as you always should have, and could have, done.
Free yourself from trusting the small human will that cannot be trusted, and turn to the only Will that exists always and complete. “Thy Will is Done. Let me see It.”
Ah, the freedom of trusting the Greater,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
The admission that you do not know what is Best for your own Peace, much less anyone else’s, is one that frees you to listen carefully, lovingly, and gratefully to the Divine Director. When all choices come down to listening and trusting the Will, and Reality of, the Divine Action, then you will realize how simple it is to have the one rule, Love and Obey the Divine Instructions that come to you, above all.
Learning to hear, and disciplining yourself to obey, those instructions, then becomes your “exercise” for each day, rather than some movement of the body or regimen of machines or diet. Be perfect Spirit, as God made you, and be free.
Ponder this, Beloved, and let today be truly a day of obeying the guideline Loving given, to find peace and happiness by Loving the Divine Creator, Spirit, and Its Spiritual Creation, above all else.
We Greet you in the Perfection of Spirit, and Rejoice with you there,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
God is indeed timeless. But the merciful Spirit of God recognizes that the earthly dream is very awash in a perception of linear time. And thus it is important to ponder that events and understandings happen “in due time”, that is, in God’s timing.
You can help make leaps in the timing of revelation of All Good, if you turn your heart willingly over to the God Guidance, each and every day, and sing praise in your heart when you feel Good happening, in Good timing. Progress to that shining Showing of Good is being made, we assure you.
Stand outside of time, with God, and take a look,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
There is no wisdom or truth in the flesh. No longer think of yourself as a body—think of yourself as a Spirit being guided by the Great Spirit of Whom you are an emanation, and let the costume of dust shift and shape itself to conform to the instructions you receive from Spirit, the Great Whole.
This is the Way. This is the Truth. This is the life that is the Happiness you are meant to have and be. Let not the costume dictate to you. Be the Spirit, and Be Joy.
As ever and always,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
We have told you again and again that if you give God/Goddess/The One Force Source the pleasure of listening to It for a day, It will give you ideas that will bring you Joy and Satisfaction. Can you say it does not work without giving it a try?
Give the Loving Source a chance, Beloved. It would Love to help your human experience. Give It today. Be calm, and still and quiet, and Listen.
AMEN,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
God does not look like you. God is not just a giant man or woman, slightly smarter and stronger and wiser. God is a Principle, is the All-Force, the One, the Alpha-Omega, The I am that I am, The Energy of All that Is Love and Truth and Life.
You must remember this when you are praying for healing, for yourself or for another. When you turn your words and thoughts, and your awareness, to that Great Harmony, and pray to be shown the Harmony that It, in Its innate Goodness and Creativity, intended as Its thought of you, beware your preconceptions. In asking, in your meditations or prayers, to be shown the Harmony of your self, you might have in your human thoughts the healing of the deafness in your right ear. You might be imagining better hearing coming to that ear canal, instantaneously or over the course of a few days or weeks, while the rest of your life stays the same.
And, indeed, that can happen. But be aware that the All That is Divine and Harmonious might reveal more, or other, parts of Its “thought of a loving arrangement of Light” that is you: You might find that you suddenly have lost your taste for driving fast, and feel an inner urge to go walking every day. You might realize that you really do not enjoy making movies anymore, and feel drawn to a science that studies new plant foods. You may find that alcohol holds only dizziness for you now, instead of pleasure, or that the gardening that so fed your soul before now seems dull, and all you want to do is write letters to old family and friends. The Divine definition of “Harmony” for the Divine thought that is you may hold many, many changes and unexpected things. Are you ready?
When you ask the Divine for Healing and Harmony, Beloved, you must be prepared to be surprised if you would receive what It gives. When you hand over your will to Divine Will, your life may completely turn around. New desires, new tastes, new habits and new forms are all part of how the Divine “heals”, by revealing the marvelous Truth It knows of the beautiful thought that is you. It knows you as It always knew you, and It will indeed show you Its thought, if you are really ready to ask, and to See.
Ah, Beloved,
We know you have felt the Vast Arms of Disembodied Love embracing you and lifting you into Higher Thought. There is absolutely nothing that has any power to prevent you from feeling that all the time.
Although sometimes you have felt that feeling when assisted by a prayer partner or meditation teacher, or when in highly intense moments of celebration or of complete openness to Help, you CAN feel that supportive feeling all the time. Just practice doing so. Do not practice in a strained way. Just stay open and inviting to welcome that embrace all the time.
This practice is NOT of the “no pain, no gain” variety. It is the opposite of that. It is the Joyous realization that in every moment you can choose to have the extra bonus of living in a deeper and Higher Love.
Take that extra Joy into the day with you, Beloved.
Accept It. It is yours,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
Insofar as you are humanly able, look for and see the good attributes of those around you. In every person, even when “familiarity has bred contempt”, you can seek and name some qualities that you interpret as “good”, such as endurance, or patience, or loyalty to a cause, even if it is a cause you do not personally believe in.
Think upon these things that you have found to focus upon, and allow your heart to acknowledge them, and to open and soften your thoughts about the person.
But then, Beloved, take it a step further. Ask, humbly, that the Divine All open your eyes and allow you to see the power of Truth working upon that other heart. Ask for the privilege of being allowed to witness how, without a word from you to the other person, you can ask the Divine All to grace you with the gift of seeing some wonderful action, or word, or healing, or release, or heroism, or generosity of goods or spirit, or unasked-for-kindness come forth from the human with whom you were feeling angry, or disappointed with.
Being allowed to see the Truth rain into a dry heart, and bring forth the flowers from the seeming desert of it, is far more wonderful than coercing anyone into any certain action.
Pray to be allowed to see the visible result of Truth’s work, knowing that the Truth does Its work with or without you, but that being allowed to see the result of that work bloom right in front of you is a very great gift indeed.
Seek the wonder of that gift, rather than trying to “fix” things or people,
ALL LOVE,
ANGELS
Ah, Darling One,
It is with great pleasure that we remind you that you CAN place the future in the Hands of God with utter Trust.
And when you can do so with no fear, then you KNOW you have come to completely trust the Utter Goodness of God. It is that delightful. It is that simple.
Turning always to the One who knows what is best for all, and creates the end happiness of all, is the way to the Peace of all, even within the vehicle of earthly awareness. It is rather inexplicable by human notions and vows and logic, we know, but that is where the Trust comes in. When you contemplate the Goodness of the Qualities of God consistently, the Goodness and Faithfulness will become such a deep Knowing within you, that you will be amazed that that was ever a time when you did not trust the God-Love, and Its Love for you. Then that trust will overcome any small human fears, and you will step into each day with complete calm and confidence.
We know the depth of Love of which you are made,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
Gentle your heart today. Let all anger melt away. Let any old regrets or current sorrows or future worries melt away. Gentle your heart today with Love.
Love is the Mother Essence of God. Like a GOOD Mother, Love loves you forever, without condition or time or uneven expectation. Love only wants you to Love Her back.
Loving Her back , and feeling Her Love, is the crucible in which you can burn away all the irritations and disappointments and grievances. Be Loved, and Love back, and gentle your heart today. “I am Loved by Mother-Love, and I Love also in return.”
The softness of It within will soothe and fill you,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
There is a good reason that comedians are revered in every society.
There are some days when your own manifestations are so out of line with what you truly want and ARE, that laughter is one of the fastest ways to get yourself back into the Joy of Being that can help you change the situation. Look at what seems un-laughable, and LOOK for the humor. Laugh at the ridiculous and disarm it. Remember how many times an annoying moment or irritating situation became the basis for a funny story you told later on.
Humor IS Divine, Beloved. Use it to disarm yourself. Use it to disarm others. Ponder how many arguments, and wars, and divorces, might have been stopped if a good joke had been told, or seen, at just the right time. Seek the humor of the moment, and find release from the shadow of the moment, and then find your Way again.
And you thought our bad puns were silly?
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
Here we are, appreciating together, when you take the time to look softly around you, or listen deeply, or touch gently, and notice the exquisite shimmering of light and energy that is all around. Here we are together, appreciating.
That is the gist of it. Created to walk and talk together, in the lovely garden of all that is, and exclaim and wonder and name the goodness of it all.
Call me forth through the everyday jabber, into your high consciousness, your full awareness, and let us appreciate and love together.
For I hear you always, I hold you and answer you always with Love gentle and true,
SPIRIT
Ah, Beloveds,
When the Spirit of Love awakens within each heart, it does not matter what that heart names It. Whether It names Itself to that heart and mind, or whether the person of that heart chooses to label It by the name of some teaching or some religion, It is still One Spirit. It is what It Is. It is Love, Truth, Peace, and the everlasting Presence of all kinship.
It will come to all hearts, whether through the joy and suffering of earth, or the grace of instantaneous mercy, or at the instant of death. It may seem to come in many forms, but It will be the same One Spirit that is the Life of all and All.
No one is left behind, for they were never apart,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
There is no need to wait to be a Child of God. You ARE one now, and always. The enticing and gruesome illusions that would make you think you must strive, strive, strive to become a wondrous Child of God are simply not true. You do not have to earn being an idea of God’s—that was gifted to you automatically when God first thought of you. All you need to do is remember it and acknowledge it as your true and only identity.
Just remember it. Be it. Let go of thinking you are this “other self” far away from Love and Its comfort and counsel and likeness. The only you is a Child of God. You are in It, surrounded by It and Its plenteous and other wondrous ideas, including all companions and joys and right livelihood, and opportunities to shine as a reflection of the central Creative Source.
Claim this Identity of Truth, and be it today, now, Beloved. It will help you finish remembering who you really are. And as you do, you will be surprised that you ever thought otherwise, like an elephant awakening from a dream that she was a tiger, and so, so glad to know otherwise with the dawn.
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
When it feels like there is nothing to say, be Silent.
Do not struggle against the impulse for silence. Be LOVING in your silence. Be tender. Be kind, but be silent, and trust that the All-Knowing will work on your, and everyone else’s, minds. All minds are One Mind, when the shining brightness of One Source filters Its Thoughts into each place where there seemed to be independent thought. Then, any thought not in alignment with Joyful expansion of Love and Gladness of Being is simply gone.
As ever, with you, with you, with you,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
We are sure of that. You ARE Beloved.
If you were as sure of that as we are, things would feel so much smoother to you. Therefore, tell yourself again and again today, “I am Beloved of God.”
“I am Beloved of Love. I am as like Love as is Itself.”
“I am Beloved.”
Once you believe it, Love can ride in on the rays of Love to heal your other thoughts, and bring great Goodness to you.
We Love you utterly, Child,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
Let there be a newness now to your trust.
Let it be that you even realize it is inevitable.
If God is All in All, and is All there is, including you as Its Idea and expression, what else is there to trust? There is only God, so there is only God to trust. Trust.
Trust, Beloved, trust, trust, trust.
It always comes to this.
In utter Love,
ANGELS
Ah, Dear One,
How many of your joys are only temporal ones? Are you happy when you have a thing, and angry when you don”t? Can you enjoy the beauty of a flower in the sweet union of Oneness, but not grieve as it dies, or as you walk away without possessing it?
Letting the Inner Happiness fill you can feel like opening an aperture right behind the human heart, and letting yourself fill up with Still Peace as though you were an empty space filling with light and air, or an dry well filling with water. None of the metaphors that have been used through the ages quite describe the experience of Union with Spirit, but all of the attempted descriptions agree that time spent practicing that merging of the self with the Divine, and focusing on Now, are crucial.
Whether you are a beginner or well-practiced, give it as much time of your day as you can, staying in the Connected state for as many of your daily activities as possible. The more you practice, the more your “outer” and “inner” activities will become One, Beloved, until you are indeed, “praying without ceasing”, as Christians would say, or “living in Buddha Mind” as Buddhists would say.
We repeat this again and again for it is key to all awakening.
We want your Happiness as much as we want you to want It for others,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
God Loves by Creating Good, and then resting back to appreciate the Created.
Spirit creates Spirit. Love creates Love. The seed planted is what is harvested.
Make sure you do the same, with Love supporting you, and Christ having cleansed your heart and mind. Just be willing, and respectful, and They express Themselves as you.
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
Truth and Love offer you the perspective that you are innocent and a part of basic Goodness. They have watched you sleep and dream and fret about errors you made or thought you saw others making, but they saw only your sweet purpose of shining with Oneness.
Accept their verdict of your inherent and complete purity, and feel the freedom of the core value of your Self. But of course, you must, at the same time, be willing to leave the verdict of what all others are to Truth and Love as well. The human condition calls this “forgiveness”.
Truth and Love say simply “there is nothing to forgive”, for you only imagined your central spirit to be bad or independently triumphant or confused.
Yes, yes, the human condition seems to have a long list of tasks and chores and desires for you to fulfill today. But We ask you, is there really an urgent worldly reason for you to not just take a Sabbath day—a day spent feeling and being and remembering and knowing your innocence and completeness in God Mind?
Believing in your own innate Goodness and in the core Goodness of others will change your world. Begin it, and continue it, day by day.
Believe in the power of letting go of condemnation,
I Am your Truth
Ah, Beloved,
Do you think you are so different from the plant that turns to the sun to create its sustenance?
Turn to the Peace and Joy of the Source that is your sacred Life, dear child, and It will provide you with the ideas and the energy to give you your provision and your purpose. It will guide you with quiet happiness and a deep desire that is more connected to the Oneness of Being than any momentary pleasure.
Turn to It, turn to It, turn to It, and grow visibly into your Best Self, just as the seed becomes the leaf and the flower and the fruit.
The fruits of the Spirit are wonderful to live with.
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
In the long run, it is easier to love than to hate.
It may seem that it is less trouble to simply “write off” a troublesome stranger or relative or friend, without going to the trouble of taking time to forgive, and bless, the other, but it is not true. Remember that the “other” is a part of the Whole, just as you are, and so, if you do not take the time and effort to turn your hurt feelings or anger or simmering resentment into acceptance or tender forgiveness, you are only delaying having those feelings mirrored back to you.
Take care of forgiveness right away. Choose to lovingly accept, even when you do not yet understand. Let yourself have peace of mind and heart, rather than letting old pains or outrage slowly surface, and poison your moments that could be given to Joy.
Friendships and loves are sometimes re-forged. But, even if there are “good-byes”, let them be “I love you, and goodbye”, rather than “I hate you, goodbye.” The cast members of your earthly play will drift in and out of your scenes, and you may yet be surprised at which ones can seem inconsequential, or slightly annoying, but turn out to be one of the most important characters in your long life.
Always, lean to the side of Love, on the path, in case you fall over the edge,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
To apply for a job without knowing the exact hours it entails, or the specific skills and talents you might be asked to employ, or the habits you will find yourself changing to suit it, may sound like folly. But if you knew that that employment would also provide the most extraordinary experiences, and the chance to work with wondrous individuals, and the delights of a complete sense of purpose, would you try for the position?
When you ask God to serve as an instrument of Light, these things are what will occur.
If you do not ask to serve, these elements of change and reward will still occur, for they are but the revelation of exactly what you are as a part of God. Do it willingly and swiftly, or do it slowly and with many detours, but know that there is no changing the Will of God that already holds you embraced in Love.
We almost chuckle when we see those who believe they are outside of, and can avoid, the scope of the Infinite All. “Mercy and Goodness shall pursue me all the days of my life.”
Have as many sleeping dreams as you like, God will still find you and awaken you,
ANGELS
Ah, Beloved,
Is it not time for a day of silence, or near silence, and the simple quiet heart prayer, “Help me see as You See, dear God”?
It is your allowing of enablement that helps God Help you, Beloved. God is not trying to hide from you the sweet Perception of Good and the understanding of all that is True and Divine and Holy. It is your willingness to be quiet and humbly receiving that empowers you to learn and be the Power that material focus cannot teach you.
Today, “Let me allow myself to See as God Sees, to Love as God Loves, including that God Loves me.”
As is true,
ANGELS
