The Walls of Time

by Rev. Cheril Goodrich

The walls of time are fragile and the seeming protection that is afforded its occupants can come crashing down at any moment.

Love waits for any opportunity to slip quietly past the protection that time seems to provide. A momentary lapse of the awareness of time is all that is needed and a quiet remembrance slips through the barrier and ever so gently shifts the awareness of hate that seemingly holds the gate shut to the beckoning call of Love. An instant is all that is needed to shift the world from that of hate to Love.

Be still and listen. The instant of Love returning Home is occurring all over the world. The dwelling place of Love is being opened, one instant at a time. Love waits on a welcome call. The instant this shift occurs is perceived in time as being fearful.

Because the eventual outcome is the abolishment of time, man is fearful that he will find himself homeless. It is in fact the fear and guilt, harbored in the heart, that have been learned in time that try to hold onto the territory and hide it from the healing Presence of Love. We would have God join the seeming nightmare and fight a war with the physical conditions we supply and on a physical battlefield we supply.

God’s Army protects and preserves by holding that which is holy, but not on a physical battlefield. This holy army has no need to destroy the world. Love does not destroy. This Army looks for instances to shift the heart and expand the Kingdom through Love.

It is our willingness to join with the Cause that is needed. We are not being asked to fight a war. A little willingness is all that is needed to shift the world from one of hate to one of Love.

The Army is creating opportunities for the occupants of time to learn of the New Kingdom. This Army cannot be defeated by any battle, for the war is not being fought under any conditions that this world understands. Every instant yielded to the truth affords the opportunity for Love to enter the heart and is considered a victory. Each shift reveals at first the hatred found on the heart, and once realized the heart returns to Love. An ancient hatred has become a present Love and the world that thought that only time could be called home, finds a resting place so pure that Heaven Itself abides within and finds comfort with us there.

The choice is ours, but the outcome of this war is not. Once the outcome is evident, the war is over.” It is too difficult to learn,” and “I do not understand the language;” are evidence of a heart unwilling to change. What has been placed before us is life or death, and we must choose life, not only for ourselves, but also for future generations.

ho will volunteer their services? Who will open their heart and allow the New King to enter and bring a holy instant to the world? This is how the Holy War is won and how righteousness is returned to the world.

You need do nothing except be a willing host for Love. It is through a willing heart that peace is restored to the world. Nothing else will work because the plan for the salvation of the world must come through the purpose of a greater Awareness than our own. The time is now and it belongs to the world; but the holy instant is our joint inheritance, which cleanses our heart and gives it back to Love.
