Love and Perfect Understanding

Holy Spirit to Robert:  Sadness is a disguised form of rage. You experience sadness when a situation is not the way you would have it be. What can this be but anger? Sadness is a sign that you are hanging on to the past. In the past you decided that you wanted something in a certain way and because the present does not seem to meet this expectation, your peace is disturbed.

Beneath the form of the specific situation is anger towards God. You wanted special consideration which God could not give, for He could not see you as different from Himself or His creation. Because you did not get what you thought you wanted, you made up a world that would seem to satisfy you. Yet because it is a world of images you made up that seem to change at the slightest whim, you can never be satisfied with this imaginary world.

The key to release from sadness is the same key that would release you from rage: Let go of the past; forgive. Only full release of the past will bring you the exquisite happiness, gratitude, Love and peace that God gave you in His creation. Dear Child of God, let go. You do not really want anything the past has seemed to offer. What you want is now. Love is now. There is nothing else. Accept it and be in joy.

Self to Annie:  Let Love and Perfect Understanding dissolve all thoughts you have been holding on to that have caused you pain. Give them all away to the Light Force in you that can do something about it. Let your mind be emptied of all past thoughts that have limited you. Only this needs to be done to recover the remembrance of true Love and the Peace that surpasses understanding.

Holy Spirit to Mary:  The way to receive the Light is to relax and let go of your hold on the world. As you relax and let go you are opening the door to receive the river of peace that is God’s Gift to you. This river of peace gently washes away all the false ideas you have been holding on to. This is letting go and letting God. Only this will bring you the happiness you so deserve. This is the answer to every problem that confronts you. Relax. Let go and let God’s river of peace do its healing work in your mind. As you do this, you share peace with every mind.

Holy Spirit to Sharyn:  Extending your Love, the Love that you are, is all that is important. Sometimes it isn’t so easy to see the love in everyone and in every situation, but this is your challenge. This is your job. When you see the Love in every situation and extend this Love in every situation, your mind is healed. The part of your mind that used to get angry or upset or impatient will heal each time another is blessed and offered Love.

Even though this may not seem easy at times, just do it. Practicing this will bring you peace of mind knowing that you have help every minute of every day in healing all those mistaken thoughts is wonderful news. Accept the Help. I am here for you always. I can never leave. It is impossible. Let’s do God’s work together by extending Love to all our brothers and sisters. Remembering that there is no specialness is important here. There is only oneness. All are part of the one mind of God.
