Potholes

Heavenletter #611 

God said:

When you feel doubt in Me, note that you have picked it up somewhere. You have appended it. You have latched on to it. Doubt doesn't grip you. You grip it.

Like anxiety, you think it strikes you from an outside force. But doubt strikes you from inside your mind. Some logical conclusion makes you aware of doubt.

For instance, the cruelties in the world make you doubt My existence OR My existence as God Almighty. You think perhaps there is another power that really rules the universe, one contrary to the concept of goodness. Yet I say again and again that all that exists is you and I, and We are the power and the glory. If We are the power and the glory, then We are not the cruelty. We are not the selfishness. We are not the hurts in the world.

Yet, you question. If God as love exists, then why does He — and how can He — allow suffering to be rampant on earth? Where is the God of mercy you crave to set wrongs right?

No wonder you have conceived of a God of punishment. No wonder you have bound righteousness and punishment together in one sheaf. But I am not a judger, and I ask you not to be either. There is not merit in it.

Your belief in retaliation is an imposition upon creation. You are not an avenger. Nor am I. How We balance the world is to dispense unimpassioned love. If there is unkindness in the world, We right it with a bigger vision. You can call it kindness. Give kindness to your throng, not cracks of the whip.

You strew rose petals, not shame. You sing songs, not dirges. You do not make someone confess. You do not lash anyone with words. You do not point out the error of their ways nor call it sin.

Turn your heart and mind to the goodness that is also rampant in the world. And which is rampant in you. Incur goodness with your attention.

If you have a tear in your dress, and you keep pulling at it, you make the tear greater.

If there is a pothole that trips you up, if you jump up and down on it to trample it back, you make that which you don't like in the first place bigger. Futile is your jumping up and down on inequities.

If you have the strength of heart to fill up the pothole, that is better. But if your heart cannot in truth do that, then lift your thoughts. Find another path for your attention to walk on.

This is not pretending that potholes do not exist. This is shifting your attention to the rest of the road, shifting your attention from what is absent to what is present.

If you bemoan the lack of innocence in the world, then seek out innocence. If you bemoan cruelty in the world, be the opposite. If you bemoan the lack of right living in the world, then live right. Be that which you desire more of in the world. Do not emulate that which you do not want. You cannot arbitrate others to be what you want them to be or do, but you can conduct yourself.

Do not complain any longer about the inadequacy of the world. Get off your high horse. Champion the goodness. Remember good manners. Do not be ungrateful for what I have given you. Because another makes sport of creation, it does not mean it's all right for you. When others pull the world down, lift it up. Where there is darkness, open the blinds. Let the sun in. Do it as your offering to Me.

The Greatness of Your Heart

Heavenletter #555 

God said:

You can see in the dark. You can see in the dark with your heart. Your heart is like a huge flashlight that illumines all. The dark is a myth. It is a fantasy. HOpen your heart, and all that never existed will no longer seem to appear before you. When your eyes are on a bright and beautiful horizon, that is what you see. Nothing blocks your view. You pay no attention to anything in between, for there is nothing in between. But even if there were, the far horizon becomes close because it is in your awareness.

When your heart is open, it pulls all good to it. With a closed heart, nothing can get out and therefore it is harder for more love to get in. A closed heart is like a fist, and an open heart is like a hand opened upward that can catch the light from the sun and the mist from the sea. Your heart can open. It is only fear from memory that tightens it.

Wounded or not, your heart can open to itself. It can unfurl. It can get used to being open, and greater love will come to it for the reason that it is open. The heart allows itself to be a vessel, a pitcher that pours and is refilled. There is no limit to the pitcher of your heart.

Love flows. That is its nature. It swirls and eddies. It is a tidal wave. It catches everything in its path.

There can never be too much love or too much attention on it. There has been too much attention on everything else. Toss your heart high now. Let it call to itself from every mountain top. Let your heart be heard around the world. Let it hear itself. Let your love be yodeled across the universe. The sound of it will be well-received everywhere. And you will begin to hear the sound of your own heart.

What did you think your heart was for? Did you think it was to be scarred? You thought that a heart open was vulnerable to attack and that you had to protect it from further wounding. But an open heart is strong. You had it wrong.

A closed heart hurts itself first before anything else can. No one, nothing, can damage your heart as much as you already have by closing it. How emboldened your heart will become when you let it stretch out its limbs! It has been cramped too long. Exercised, it begins to notice its power. Flex the muscles of your heart.

Physical exercise is small next to the exercise of love. You have forgotten to exercise it. You have been so busy protecting your heart from pain, that you have imprisoned love. You have neglected your heart and caused it discomfort. Like you, a heart was made for something. Armor blocks your heart. Take away the armor, and your heart forges ahead and finds its destiny. Your heart's destiny is far greater than you ever imagined.

Your heart's destiny and yours are the same. When I say you are destined for greatness, I am talking about your heart. Your heart will take you where you are going. Your heart does not know about amassing. Your heart knows only about flowing. Your heart circulates itself. And from where does the flow of it begin? It begins from Me.

Your heart flourishes in My love. There is no other. There is no love that belongs to you, and that is why you must free it. My love rests in your heart so that you may extend it. My love is not to be possessed. It is to be given. It is not for you to say where. You are not to govern your heart. You are to be led by it.

God said:

When you are tired, something is tiring you. And it is usually your thoughts.

What you do does not wear you out. It is your thoughts about it that wear you out. Resistance creates friction. Action does not.

How you begin something is important. In what frame of mind are you? Remind yourself that when you command a certain outcome, you are being controlling. And controlling sets you up to lose, because even if you win, you will feel on edge because you premeditated an outcome.

Of course, you start a race to come in first. But that is different from having to win.

In all interactions, lay your cards on the table. It is that simple. You do not slither and slide. You do not try to make something look other than it is. Be not clever. Cleverness is not of God.

Who can accept accepts. Who cannot accept does not accept. Do not hedge your bets. Really, all your tomfoolery does not make much difference to the outcome, but it makes a big difference in the basis of hearts. Let other people make their own full choices. Let them know what shipment they are getting.

You do not want to pretend that green is blue or blue is green. Let be what is. Give not more nor less than what you convey. Let your words and actions match your thoughts.

Give more credit to others. Give more credit to yourself. Let Me be a silent partner at your table.

Truth is grounding. Wiggling the truth is not grounding. It is misplacing your attention. It is a magician's trick. It is illusion. The magician diverts his audience and makes them look in the wrong place. Be not a magician. There is no need.

Work true wonders.

Knit with real yarn, not imaginary twine.

Tie solid knots.

Let your words of truth be gems of the Ocean.

Deal in truth, not paste. Deal in truth, not commodity.

Honor your own heart, and you will honor others', and they will honor you. You do not want false accolades.

Dressing in false colors is not necessary. You do not need a façade.

Predicate yourself on strength.

You have to breathe with your own heart. You cannot assume another's. You cannot even read another's heart. You can only read what you imagine, and you pluck your own imagined weakness and place it in the other's eye. So you attempt to see for others when you must let them see for themselves. You plant false evidence where no evidence is needed. When you try to direct another's thoughts, you misdirect them, and you have absconded from yourself.

You do not really want your own opinion from another, yet that's what you seek when you set out to orchestrate an event.

You are not an opinion-monger. You are a freedom-giver. Give others the freedom to say no. It is better to hear no today rather than to put it off until tomorrow. When someone says no to you, they do you great honor. Better a truthful no than a wobbly yes.

When you feel a sense of weakness, know that you have been prevaricating. You have either talked yourself into something, or you have talked yourself out of it. Do neither. Just find the truth and acknowledge it. Truth is truth, but what is true for you may not be true for another. Let them be. They will come to My truth soon enough. All will come to truth in their own time. No one has been out of My truth. You have not. Just for a moment, someone may not be on the right page.
