Between Hammer and Anvil. Dear one, yes, you can develop a continuous song in your heart of hearts to the glory of the One Creator God. Even though you do not give expression in voice and words, the Eternal knows what lives in your heart, and He knows the great strides you are making in your faith and trust. To a large extent this is due to your developing self-discipline, and your increasing hunger for communion, which keep you coming back to Me in the Silence for more of that inner peace. A Peace that calms your tired nerves and restores them to a greater calm than you have ever known before. A Peace like a calmly flowing river that sweeps all irritants away, and stands as a sentinel to overshadow your past and nullifies all past mistakes and disappointments. And yet this Peace is also forging you between hammer and anvil into the personality you are becoming day by day. This Peace is giving you the feeling of security, and of protection, but most of all the feeling of being loved and accepted just the way you are. As well, it gives you the feeling of being guided throughout all the days of your life. This Peace helps you to overcome character flaws, as you grow in sincerity of heart, for by now you have realized that nothing is hidden from the all-seeing and all-knowing eye of God, Who delights when a human heart responds to the Call of His Spirit. Rejoice in the sure knowledge that all is well, and that you, too, are a beloved child of the Creator, who is ever so slowly forging you into the shape of His own image. Yes, I know mortal life can be drudgery. And yet it totally depends on how you look at it, either pessimistically or optimistically. I suggest that you practice the latter. After all, you can always depend on Me to uplift your thoughts, as I am closer to you than your breath, nearer to you than your hands and feet.

You Cannot Serve Two Masters. Dear one, it is so true that the worries and strains of daily life can take their toll, and thereby a great deal of joy out of living. This is the reason why I desire for you to live more mindfully each day. There is no reason why you should have to worry about anything at all. The first and foremost thing to do, is to first come to Me in your early mornings, so you start your day on a calm footing with a trusting heart, and not rushed for the day ahead. When already rushed, the whole day will be filled with tension, which ultimately is not productive for mind, body or soul, and you open yourself to attracting accidents and disease. The more securely you place yourself in God’s overcare and protection, the smoother your day will flow. Put this advice to the test. I know that you have experienced a little of this already, but the great majority of people has not. Do not worry about the opinions of others, or of keeping up with the Jones’, or having to buy this or that. All things needful will be provided, but you cannot serve two masters-God and Mammon. With the god of mammon, this planet has reached an utterly materialistic state, were great burdens in the form of heavy taxation are placed upon the shoulders of all citizens, due to the fact that you are still involved in wars among each other. True peace and calm will only come, when everyone starts accepting each other as children of the same Creator. The mortals of this planet have not yet seriously begun to direct their attention inward to seek that better way of life. Ask yourself why you are here. What is the purpose of living? What is your destiny? Truly, dear one, the only purpose and destiny is the Ultimate Creator on Paradise, Who wants to be intimately involved in all the experiences in the lives of all mortals. Yet His Still Small Voice is rarely heard above the clamor and the din of the world. Yet, this Voice has been graciously bestowed upon each thinking human child to help guide it on the way Home. Come, and let us commune.

Mindfully in the Present. Dear one, for a moment let us ponder about what it would be like to have a patient and loving heart, for there are several attributes that belong to it. A loving and patient heart requires first and foremost for a conscious decision to be made on your part, because this is not something that is automatically bestowed at birth, unless one is genetically pre-disposed thereto. Once that conscious decision has been made, then the hard work of self-discipline begins, because you will be tested and tried to learn this most difficult lesson. Mankind is usually bent towards impatience and tempers can flare up unexpectedly. Even these words you can ponder and flesh out in your mind. To be consciously patient and loving means for you to live in present-centered awareness, lest you ‘slide down the slope’ of impatience. These present times with all the hastiness and stress to rush here, there and everywhere, are not conducive to the development of patience, and indeed they give rise to much impatience. The best start of any new day is to allow yourself the gift of first coming to Me in the Silence, and imbibe of My Rest and Peace. Let it suffuse into your very DNA and RNA, and this will repercuss ‘down the line’ via your nervous system. The more often you do this, the more beneficial this practice becomes. I know that it will take a lot of self-discipline at first, but I tell you that the benefits are enormous, even though they may not at first be apparent. Your soul-rest increases, your peace of mind increases, and therefore your thinking becomes more peaceful, with greater clarity, and the body feels less stress. In this state, true learning and character building can take place for the important matters, like your desire for a patient and loving heart. So live mindfully in the present, and the desire of your heart shall be fulfilled.

Self-Forgetting and Self-Surrender. Dear one, the road to wisdom, true wisdom and discernment, is only to be had, when you travel with Me. It is in the amount of prayer you offer up for the healing of others, the self-less prayer for others, and the depth of sincerity and the quality of concentration you give in your prayers that you travel the road to wisdom. It is in faith and trust that the Celestial Powers hear your prayer requests, where discernment and insights come, and wisdom appears. It is through total self-forgetting and self-surrender to the Almighty Power of the Eternal God that wisdom appears and increases each time when you thus engage yourself. The Father already knows what you need, and therefore only thanksgiving remains. Yet it is altogether proper and indeed becoming more needful that you pray for all the floundering and lost souls that grope around in the darkness of materialism, and seek for soul-satisfaction, and yet will never find it on that level. Pray for those that their souls may be opened up to find Me already there waiting for them, so the Light of God can begin to shine and nurture their souls, to grow and develop, and that they, too, will begin to realize that their search is over. All they need is to experience My Unconditional Love for them. Take many moments in your days to pray for the healing of the planet and her many lost and floundering souls living upon it. There truly are no lost souls, as they, too, are children of the Most High God. Yet in order to claim their birthright, they need to wake up, so their impoverished souls can be fed, and they, too, will grow into eternal life. It is up to them to make the connection. However, they need to know that this Gift exists, rather then wallow in fear, superstition and materialism. I live within each one, and it is My desire that they would desire Me too.
