Christmas day, my birthday, is approaching rapidly, so
CELEBRATE!
Enormous
changes are occurring all across the planet as the moment of your
awakening approaches. And that is reason for celebration. Yes, there
are many who are in pain, and many who are suffering, and a very
effective way to assist and support them is to set the intention to send
them love and healing. For many of you that is the most effective
thing you can do because you are not physically in their presence. If
you are in a position where you can be physically present for someone
who is in pain and is suffering, and your intuitive guidance is
to attend to them, then do so, even if you fear doing this. Fear is of
the ego, so tell it that you understand its concern and that you know
that this is what you need and intend to do, and the fear will greatly
decrease in intensity, or fall away altogether.
This
is the season of giving, and while many of you will obviously engage in
material gift-giving – and that is good – to give of yourselves, your presence,
by communing with friends, family, and loved ones is the most important
and perfect gift that you can possibly offer to anyone. And, because
intimate family relationships can be very stressful, set the intent very
firmly to engage only lovingly, along with the intent to acknowledge
any anger that arises without projecting it outwards. If anger
arises in the presence of others, then discretely, and as soon as
possible, remove yourself to the bathroom or other suitable place where
you can be alone for a few minutes to take a “time-out.”
There
is no one who has not reacted angrily when their buttons were pushed,
and who has not later had plenty of time to suffer the intense pain of
enormous regret. So, before visiting with people who you love and who
can cause you stress or anger, take at least ten minutes in quiet
meditation with the intent to be only loving whatever arises. You will
find this is an enormously effective way to ensure that when you arrive
at their home, or greet them when they arrive at yours, that your warm
greetings are then completely heartfelt, and because they will
feel the peace of your welcoming presence it will dissolve any stress or
anxiety that they may be feeling.
If
someone “misbehaves” over the holidays, cut them some slack, because it
is at times like this that most people’s insecurities or lack of
self-worth arise most powerfully and are likely to drive them, from
shame or fear, into saying or doing something offensive. Remember you are
LOVE! And Love accepts without judgment, offering comfort, compassion,
and heartfelt support. If you have had experiences of very painful get
togethers and are concerned that one of your get togethers this
Christmas season could deteriorate into a painful blame game, then it is
absolutely essential that you prepare yourselves in advance by taking
that ten minute “time-out.” You will find it very helpful, and it will
bring some, possibly unexpected, peace and joy to meetings to which you
were not completely looking forward.
This time of the year is a
time for celebration, and most of you go to great efforts to make it so
for your children or grandchildren, while clinging to grudges that you
hold against various adults with whom you interact – spouses, parents,
siblings, bosses, associates, etc. So, this Christmas season, as you
move rapidly towards awakening, be conscious of grudges and
resentments to which have become attached or even addicted, and set the
intent, as firmly and powerfully as you can, to forgive everyone you see as an enemy or as an untrustworthy friend or relative. As Gandhi said: “Be the change you want to see in the world.”
You have very frequently been reminded that you can only change yourselves, and this is absolutely true, but
as you do so others will also change. That is your mission on Earth at
this time. You chose to incarnate to assist in humanity’s great
awakening, and when you made that choice you were fully aware that you
had human lessons to learn, namely, to forgive unconditionally
all who hurt or offended you and to offer them unconditional love. That
is what our heavenly Father does, always has done, and always will do.
AND,
as you all well know because you have been told so often, and because
deep within yourselves this divine truth is eternally present, you know that God created you like unto Himself. There is no other way that He could create you. This does not mean similar to himself.
You
and God are One, and therefore you and every other sentient being are
One. There is only One. Therefore to judge, blame, condemn, or shame
another is in fact to do that to yourselves.
To awaken is to consciously know
that you are Love, One with Source, and to live that divine truth
joyfully in every moment regardless of what may arise. The answer to
every issue or problem, as you are always being reminded, is always LOVE!
And
where can you find Love? Nowhere but within your beautiful selves. We
are not talking here about beauty in form, but about beauty in the One,
and that is, without exception, everyone of you.
Wherever you see or experience ugliness – in nature, in other humans, in behaviors, attitudes, thoughts, words, or actions – you are but seeing images of yourselves. Unreal images that you constructed within the game that is the illusion, and with which you engage whenever you find yourselves in any kind of conflict. All conflict is with yourself, because there is no one else!

So,
this Christmas season, remember that. Remember that you are One, and
that you are the one or the many with whom you are in conflict, or with
whom you are in love. It is always your choice – conflict or Love. And you know,
consciously, that the only way forward is through Love. The trouble is
that you have been waiting for others to demonstrate this. You did not
want to be the first because you feared you would be making yourselves
vulnerable, which you see as an invitation to pain and suffering, as others would choose to take advantage of you.
Well, some, a few, will
take advantage of you. However, the vast majority will be uplifted and
inspired when they experience you as totally vulnerable and loving, and
they will respond in like manner. And you will discover that to be
vulnerable is completely safe because in that state you will find that
you have nothing that you are ashamed of, that you feel a need to hide. You will find yourselves feeling freer than you have ever felt.
Love is free, and in Its vulnerability It is utterly invulnerable. And that is who and what you are, always have been, and forever will be!
Wishing you a most glorious Christmas, your loving brother, Jesus.
You are continuously and lovingly watched over by those in the spiritual realms.
