Listening

Dear Everyone, I share with you an answer from Holy Spirit.

Holy Spirit, I’m willing to listen.
Can you explain to me, my tendency to sleep when I want to listen to You? Is my willingness weak?

Spirit: Stilling the chatter box in the mind is the prerequisite for listening. Stilling the noise is similar, in your experience, to sleep. Stilling the noise, allows focus to be placed in other areas of mind. This need not be difficult, but with egoic resistance, there seems to be loss in focus and listening.

Resistance may be high, but it is not without limit. In other words, resistance can only go so far. With practice you become consistent in receiving—was this not the case while you were in the hospital? With practice, you could hear H.S.’s Voice at any moment. With true desire you heard the Voice for Love. It was also your intent to be receptive to that Voice. Your desire to be open and to “learn” and resolve the lesson strengthened communication. It was the open communication that you truly desired.

While you have fear and doubt, the open communication does not flow. You doubt your goodness (god-ness), you doubt your internal strength, you doubt your wholeness.
Every doubt can be given to Holy Spirit.
Any thought that would diminish your goodness, your wholeness, your union, can be given to H.S. By giving up such thoughts, the truth in you can radiate to all minds. Giving up thoughts of doubt and fear, you remove the blocks to your awareness of Love.

When you seem to stumble and fall, reach out to Holy Spirit. Remember that egoic resistance is not without limit. Resistance is very limited and is only imagined in an insane dream made from guilt. You may dream, but you are never alone. Dreams have not changed reality or What you are.
You are whole, you are safe, you are loved.  You are as God created you—without end.
