Lent Meditation #1 2025


“Important information has been hidden from you. I will share what has been kept from you for unholy purposes under the dark veil of controlling agendas using threats to your immortal soul as the means to get you to toe the line of obedience to religious, political, and social slavery.

“I have also asked Jesus (Sananda), Enoch (Metatron), Elijah (Sandlephon), Raziel (leader of the Throne angels), Uriel (name means shining a Light on Truth), my personal guardian angel, and the Soul Knowledge of Kamala (the late Kamala (Renner) St. Germain, former owner of Dove Star Institute of Holistic Technology and one of my metaphysical teachers) to guide my understanding and writing.

“Jesus taught that each one of us has the Limitless Living Light of Christ within us, as Luke 17:20-21 clearly states. This book will delineate the difference between Jesus and the role of the Christ, which is the most misunderstood distinction between the two. Jesus was human. The Christ is not.

“All modern bibles are correcting the word “among” to “within” in Luke 17:20-21, as the Interlinear Bible in Hebrew Greek English agrees. Even older bibles add a footnote on the word “among” sending the reader to the bottom of the page where it explains that it means “within.” Jesus taught humanity that the Light of God, which is the Light of the Kingdom, is within each one of us. That is precisely the answer Jesus gave to the Pharisees who asked him when to expect the Kingdom of God to come.

“This is the very reason why Jesus was crucified, because he taught that the Love (Christ) and the Light (Wisdom) of His Father, who is the Almighty Creator of All Creation was within Him AND within you and me. He dared to preach the truth. He equated Himself with God. THAT is why Jesus Christ is our Savior, to enlighten us to this fact. THAT is what He came to teach us. He never came to die a gory death on the cross for Original Sin, which is the sin of the fallen angels, not the sin of Eve, nor Adam, nor you and me. There is more to this revelation which I will share with you.

“We need to find the courage to resurrect the lost art of empathy, compassion, and genuine love in our current world situation and our everyday lives to be part of the acceleration of the Limitless Living Light transforming present realities into personal and planetary ascension. This Light works in and through humanity via our Light Source within our Adam Kadmon template, which I address in Chapter 5.

“The choice is ours to make. We are not victims of our own thoughts, words, and actions. It is possible to turn the tide of ignorance into knowledge, fear into integrity, and self-sabotage into healing. Every country in the world can benefit from ordinary care of other human beings as well as rejuvenating the entire Earth. …

“Raziel is the angel who presides over the high celestial angelic beings known as Thrones described in Chapter 4, who are at the service of the Order of Christ. Since this book reveals the Light of Christ within humanity, I call on the enlightenment of Raziel to guide the future of this book. Raziel is the chief angel leading the carriers of the Throne of God, in addition to guarding the secrets of the universe, according to The First Book of Enoch, which again, has no reference to the popular entertainment of present time. …

“Each chapter in this book will include quotes which I call the Library of Knowledge pertaining to the subject matter, and examples of life experience. This knowledge can help you in your ascension process in this lifetime. This is all about free will and how you wish to use your freedom. You are your own boss, no one else rules over you, no priest, minister, nor politician can rob you of your cash, property, thoughts, actions, nor your voice, unless you let them.

“You are alive by the Divine Breath of Mother/Father God, what I also call your God Particle, which you may know as your Energy, Soul/Spirit, “I Am” Presence, Higher Self, or any other understanding of the Eternal Universal Life Force Energy which animates you. Awareness of this same Light of Christ within you enlightens you to the reality of which Jesus taught.

“Eternal Universal Life Force Energy is part of the spiritual DNA of all human beings, since everyone is made up of body/mind, and Soul. It is not just within Jesus, nor only in the saints, not only in me and you, and not only in those who believe a certain way, but is in every living, breathing human being. It is the animating force of all human beings and all life. Jesus tried so hard to teach this to humanity and it ultimately became the reason he was crucified on the cross, that the Light and Life of Eternal Universal Life Force lives within him AND us.

“Jesus never said he came to die on the cross for us. He told us many things that I will explain in this book. We will look at his words, not just the popularized fifteen historical years of the words of Jesus, those famous twelve years of his youth, and his last three years. He lived and spoke for eighteen additional years before the crucifixion, as well as more years after his crucifixion. It is time to look at all that Jesus Christ told humanity, not only those words that agree with the different interpretations that have been placed upon his words.

“A Savior, a Messiah had been promised. The mass of humanity was not spiritually mature enough to grasp the new concept so far from their reality, that when Jesus spoke to them in Luke 17:21 that the Kingdom of God was within them, they had no idea what he was talking about, no matter how many parables he used.

“Yes, Jesus was crucified on the cross, just as the Old Testament foretold and the New Testament acknowledges. But the purpose of the arrival of Jesus on Earth was to show us how to live in true freedom. This is true for every single human being on the planet, not only for those who find themselves living in democratic and life-affirming countries and humane political systems. Every human being is born with a God-given Soul, or a Spark of Eternal Universal Life Force Energy for those scientific, medical, technical, and/or metaphysical minds among us.

“This book is a life lesson on how to stand up with peace, love, integrity, magnanimity, truth, honor, valor, gentleness, kindness, modesty, humility, patience, friendship, generosity, goodness, self-control, faithfulness, much joy, and the abundance of all good things. We learn harsh and valuable life lessons when we go against these Eternal Universal Life Force Energy principles played out in our mission, dharma, and karma as I explain in Chapter 10.

“Rather than accept the oppression of sin placed upon humanity by religious, political, and social orders, it is more healing to recognize that we learn life lessons by our faults and mistakes, as well as by our successes and achievements.

“We human beings learn life lessons for our own good, the good of our families, the good of society, and the good of the world. If there ever was a time for the rebirth of these noble traits in the history of humanity, the time is now. Otherwise, we will fare no better than many other cultures that were brought to the end of their once thriving civilizations. History has an energetic and magnetic habit of repeating itself. The very thing keeping us alive, in addition to our physical structures and systems, is the complete emotional and intellectual freedom exhibited by individual interpretations of the use of free will. This book takes a closer look at free will. The choice is yours in this poignant moment. You can get off the merry-go-round of dysfunction anytime you decide to do something more positive. It is all about recognizing that you are not a victim of your life any longer. You are where you are in your life by the very seeds that have been sown. If you do not like where you are, you can change it at any moment, starting with your thinking. …”

I plan to continue Lent Meditation #2 2025 tomorrow for your personal spiritual journey.

Lilith


The following is taken from my latest book, IN THEIR IMAGE AND LIKENESS, subtitled, UNIVERSAL WISDOM, in the Foreword, pages 18-21:

Spiritual maturity is needed to allow yourself to read this book.

It is not for the faint of heart. If this book has found its way to you and is in your hands, it is finally time for you to know what has been kept from you and humanity for 1,698 years. What I am going to share with you in this book was once common knowledge for 325 years following the crucifixion of Jesus until men, not God, told people what to believe at the Council of Nicaea.

There are three basic creeds, statements of belief approved by the Catholic and Protestant Churches, the Apostle’s Creed[1], the Nicene Creed[2], and the lesser known Athanasian Creed[3]. All three creeds, statements of belief, declare a Trinity, three persons in one God. This book deals with these statements of humanly inspired indoctrination.

The Council of Nicaea poured their dogma into one litany of beliefs known as the Nicene Creed, burying truths that were known, loved, and practiced for 325 years following the crucifixion of Jesus. All religions are negatively affected by the burying of truth, unless they are practicing all the things that Jesus taught, not only some of them. …

It is with the greatest respect, humility, and oblation of all the I am, that I refer to God as Eternal Universal Life Force Energy. God is a title, not a name, referencing the Infinite Creator of All life, seen and unseen. Some religions opt to go with the designation, YHWH.[4] Because the name of YHWH, Yahweh, is thought to be the name of Eternal Universal Life Force Energy, I will remain using the title of God, or Eternal Universal Life Force Energy when applicable.

According to the Encyclopedia Britannica, the designation for God, as in YHWH, consists of the sequence of consonants Y, H, W, H; or Yod, Heh, Waw, and Heh if you add the common vowels thought to make the tetragrammaton. Picture these words with no vowels, as the name of YHWH was not meant to be spoken. If you form the sounds of Y, H, W, H, you hear the whisper of the sound of the wind, replete with self-existence and self-sufficiency[5] which Moses experiences on Mount Horeb in Exodus 3:1-6. It is how YHWH identifies as the Limitless Living Light in the burning bush that does not burn.

Some translate this in the English language as either Yahweh or Jehovah. Yet, to pronounce the name of God, is to die, as in the case of the account of Lilith.

One infamous story of Lilith[6] can be found in The Alphabet of Ben Sira, a satirical and borderline heretical Jewish text from the Middle Ages. It says that Lilith refused to lie beneath Adam during sex, saying, “You lie beneath me! We are both equal, for both of us are made from the earth.”

This would be quick to dismiss, as many religious denominations do, except for the appearance in many mainstream bibles noting Lilith in various bible interpretations[7] of Isaiah 34:14 as follows:

New Revised Standard Version

Wildcats shall meet with hyenas, goat-demons shall call to each other; there too Lilith shall repose and find a place to rest.

New American Bible:

Wildcats shall meet with desert beasts; satyrs shall call to one another; There shall the Lilith repose and find for herself a place to rest.

International Standard Version:

And desert creatures will meet with hyenas, and goat-demons will call out to each other. There also Liliths will settle and find for themselves a resting place.

Amplified Bible:

The creatures of the desert will encounter jackals and the hairy goat will call to its kind; Indeed, Lilith (night demon) will settle there and find herself a place of rest.

Other bibles simply refer to her as a screech owl, birds, or night creatures. The New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures, the Jehovah’s Witness (JW) bible refers to Lilith in verse 14 as the nightjar, amid images of desert creatures, howling animals, and a wild goat. I have had former JW bible teachers indignantly dismiss the myths of Lilith, saying you will not find her in today’s bibles. But further investigation proves this is incorrect, as seen above.

This is a perfect example of how the bible got maligned to go along with what humanity wanted it to say or not say.

In The Alphabet of Ben Sira account, Lilith, speaks the ineffable name of God and flew away. God sends three angels named Senoy, Sansenoy, and Semangelof, who demanded that she return. Some say the names of the angels sent give the hissing sound of the snake, as they all start with the letter “S.” Did she or her Spirit return?

Other Creation stories include Lilith[8] and Naamah as being created from the dust of the earth. There is another eerily similar Creation portrayal in the mythical ancient painting depicting the goddess Anath (God) naked in the air, watching her lover Mot murder his twin brother Aliyan. Apparently biblical and rabbinic mythographers made a mistake, as humans are prone to do. They mistook Mot for Cain and Aliyan for Abel. This is not the first time that mistakes were made giving God credit for the murderous antics of the fallen ones, as you will see in this book. This is a repeating pattern. These are not the qualities of God.

This book discusses the two different Creation stories in Genesis dealing with the Creation of human beings. Lilith’s Creation accounts for the first story of Creation in Genesis 1:1-31. The story of Adam and Eve accounts for the second story of Creation.

Why on earth would there be two different Creation accounts?

With the Creation of Eve from Adams rib in Genesis 2:21-25, it is suggested that Eve is subservient to Adam, a reason religious hierarchies use to diminish the role of women in their places of worship, politics, and in archaic social systems.

In this book, Eternal Universal Life Force Energy is God, the Divine Infinite Mind, The Ancient of Days. Passages from the Nag Hammadi Scriptures, Dead Sea Scrolls, and Books of Enoch have occasional words in brackets which are possible words in those missing segments due to fragile papyrus disintegrating through time. Scholars who are adept at transcription suggest possible words within the brackets. Numbered footnotes from sourced material are noted at the bottom of the page.

Lilith is often pictured with an owl or two and sometimes with a Lion.

Esoteric Metaphysical Science Uncovered


M42 in the Orion Nebula is the womb of our solar system, prior to the birth of the mineral, plant, and animal kingdoms of our home planet. You are born of the stars, since you are born of the Earth. There is more to you than you have been told.

The origins of who we are and how we got here are as convoluted as those over the centuries who attempt to tell us “How it is.”

Humanity can only go back so far in its ancient history before running into the fathomless pre-history myths and humanly contrived suspicions of every religious cult-like indoctrination.

Once arcane knowledge was discovered by the Brahmans, yet even the most highly educated Brahmans among them hid the esoteric knowledge of metaphysical principles relegated to only a select few, once they proved themselves worthy of such powerful information, according to The Secret Doctrine, volume 1, (which was my summer reading this year), by Madame Helena Petrovna Blavatsky. Hiding esoteric metaphysical knowledge became a common habit within every religious, political, and social power.

The Egyptian, Mayan, Aztec, and Hebrew interpretations of “Creation” were not the first to make control systems for their sheep-like followers, suppressing and guilting their flocks into handing over their tithes and their lives to avoid death on the sacrificial altars, or threatening their immortal Souls.

Notice what has been kept from you.

Who is censoring what you can read, think, say, or do?

Who is the boss of you, is it a religious, political, or social group?

The Orion Nebula is thought to have formed 4.5 billion years ago. Credits: Mark McCaughrean (Max-Planck-Institute for Astronomy), C. Robert O’Dell (Rice University) and NASA Believed to be the cosmic fire of creation by the Maya of Mesoamerica, M42 blazes brightly in the constellation Orion.

The point is, you have been part of all manifestations of the Eternal Universal Life Force Energy innately within the mineral, plant, and animal kingdoms in the generations animating your Limitless, Living, Light Soul. There is a reason why minerals are in your daily vitamins. There is a reason why you need vegetables and herbs to sustain your health. Even meat eaters within humanity are nourished by the animals throughout history. You are also part of the animal kingdom.

It is your illusive Soul that human systems of religions, politics, and society cannot stifle, unless you let them.

I encourage everyone to discover, or re-discover all information, not only some information with which others want to strangle your Soul. No other person or group of any kind owns the rights to your Soul. You do.

Turn a new page in your life without handing over your personal power, fame, and fortune to any human group, institution or organization. Now is the time to break free and learn all the knowledge that was once known, without otherwise well-meaning-shepherds yelling “Heresy” about knowledge they have not even allowed themselves to read or know due to their own fear.

Fear is the weapon of the indoctrinators. It works every time you give away your personal power, thinking that someone else knows more about religion/politics/society than you do. Fear is their tell-tale mark. Recognize this and decide never to be motivated by fear of anything again.

“Now is the time for courage. Courage does not mean having no fear. Rather, courage is feeling fear, but peacefully doing the right thing, the moral thing, with integrity, despite the presence of fear.” taken from the back cover of my latest book, IN THEIR IMAGE AND LIKENESS, subtitled, UNIVERSAL WISDOM.

This is presently the mockup for my book, expected to be available in November by Blue Fortune Enterprises.

I encourage everyone to gather your courage to learn about all arcane, esoteric and metaphysical knowledge, and only then decide what your belief systems are.

Now is time to take a closer look at who you truly are and why you are here on Earth at this time. Your Soul knows.

Jesus’ Teachings in The Second Revelation of James


There is more information Jesus told us about that is not mentioned in current Bibles. However, one statement of Jesus in today’s Bibles that does mirror other sayings of Jesus, is in The Second Revelation of James (51,14-54,15) found in the sacred scrolls in Nag Hammadi, Egypt. Often, we humans like to spin the words of Jesus to fit our theology. But what if Jesus literally meant the words he said, without different interpretations put on them?

In John 8:44, Jesus said in today’s Bibles:

Knowing our human hearts, Jesus then told all who were listening, “Yet because I tell you the truth, you do not believe me!”

In The Second Revelation of James (51,14-54,15), as other scrolls found in clay pots in a cave, some decay of the material have eroded some of the words. Plausible words are placed within [].

James the Just was the beloved brother of Jesus. In The Second Revelation of James (51-14-54,15), Jesus tells him, “I tell you, listen and understand.

              “For many when they hear, will be fainthearted,

              “but you, understand in the way I can tell you.

              “Your father is not my Father,

              “but my Father has become a father to you.”

This is the same message Jesus teaches us in John 8:44. But what does that do to your belief system? It explains so many things with good and evil not only in the world, but also within all human beings. Jesus teaches us our saving grace is the fact that we are so loved by the Father of Jesus, the Christ, that Jesus came to Earth to teach us all how to acknowledge and use the Light to illuminate and deliver us as long as we continue to walk the Path of Light.

Seven sacred scrolls tell the story of who exactly created human beings. They are:

  1. The Secret Book of John
  2. The Nature of the Rulers
  3. On the Origin of the World
  4. The Wisdom of Jesus Christ
  5. The Second Discourse of Great Seth
  6. Three Forms of First Thought
  7. The Gospel of Judas

In these scriptures, Yaldabaoth is attributed to creating us. The Father of Jesus creates Jesus (Love personified) and Sophia (Wisdom). Through error Sophia creates Yaldabaoth on her own. Yaldabaoth is created out of wisdom, but not love. She is forgiven this error, but still it is Yaldabaoth whom Jesus says created humanity, which is why the Father of Jesus is not our father, as our modern-day Bibles clearly state.

The Second Revelation of James can be found in the book mentioned here:

James continues to tell what Jesus explained to him:

“Your father, whom you consider rich,

              “will grant that you inherit

              “all that you see.

              “But I proclaim to you

              “that I shall give you

              “what I shall say,

              “if you listen.

              “So open your ears,

              “and understand,

              “and walk accordingly.

“When they come for you, being dispatched by one considered glorious and intending to bring confusion and violence, [pay no attention to them], but … And … he set his hand [to something he] did not [understand], nor did [those] sent by him prepare this present [creation]. Later,  when [he] is put to shame, he will [be troubled] that his work, which is far removed [from] the eternal realms, comes to nothing.His inheritance, which he boasted about, claiming it was great, will prove to be insignificant. His gifts are not blessings, and his promises are evil intrigues. You are not of <the children> of compassion, but he does violence against you. He wants to do injustice against us. And he will have dominion for a period of time for him.

“But understand and know the Father who has compassion, who was not given an inheritance, whose inheritance is unlimited, with an unlimited number of days. Rather it is an eternal [day], and it is [light]. It exists [in places the creator himself cannot] perceive and he merely uses, for he is not from those places. Because of this he [utters curses], and because of this he boasts, that he may not be rebuked. For this reason he is superior to those who are below, who were looked down upon, in order to be perfected in them. And he captured those who are from the Father, he seized them and shaped them to resemble himself, and so they are with him.”

There are many more instructional quotes from Jesus not mentioned in current Bibles. Before we decide to throw out Bible stories, sage advice is to study more, not fewer of the words of Jesus. The words of Jesus help to explain a lot of things in our time.

May 1, 2020 ~ History of the Consecration of the United States to the Blessed Virgin Mary ~ Why It Is Important


The consecration prayer was originally written by the U.S. bishops in 1959, when they 8-facts-you-need-to-know-about-virgin-mary[1]blessed the national basilica and took that opportunity to consecrate the United States to the Immaculate Conception.

Is Your Life Balanced?


How balanced is your life? Are you balanced between home, work, school, relationships and everything else? What are the signs to watch out for that you are out of balance? How do we get back into balance in our minds, bodies and spirits?

Picture a seesaw with one side up, the other side down and the fulcrum, that balance point between the two in the

Lever with globe of Earth and small ball. simple machines by Archimedes. lever is a machine consisting of a beam or rigid rod pivoted at a fixed hinge or fulcrum.

middle. Jesus Christ is the fulcrum of all of our lives. We choose whether to live with Him in our lives, or without Him; or with or without God His Father in our lives. The same goes for the Holy Spirit, the love of the Father and Son. We choose each day whether or not to include this Love on our lives. Without God in our lives, we are out of balance. We can remedy this situation.

We go out of balance each and every time God the Father, Jesus His Son, and Love of the Holy Spirit is not at the center of our lives. If we say we do not believe in God, or think there is no God, or God did not send Jesus to be our Lord and Savior, or think of Jesus as just another ascended master, we are ignorant of the reality that God in fact did just that.

Jesus Christ, Son of God Almighty, is the balance point in all of our lives, our true fulcrum. Each of us decides when enough is enough in our day-to-day living by the use of our God-given free will. The determining factor of who we are, what we believe, and what we will allow into our lives is all up to us in this life. But there is an unnecessary problem we create for ourselves when we exclude Jesus Christ, who came to earth to show us how to live in this world, presently ruined and ruled by Satan.

Think of this for a moment. After His baptism, Jesus was led out into the desert wilderness by the Holy Spirit to be tempted there by Satan. For forty days and nights Jesus fasted. Then Satan tempted Him to get food by changing stones into loaves of bread.

Jesus answers, “No! For the Scriptures tell us that bread won’t feed men’s souls; obedience to the word of God is what we need.”

Then Satan took Jesus to Jerusalem to the roof of the Temple, and said, “Jump off and prove you are the Son of God …”

Jesus responds, “It also says not to put God to a foolish test.”

Lastly, Satan took Jesus to the peak of a very high mountain, and showed Him all the nations of the world and all their glory, and said to Him, “I’ll give it all to you, if you will only kneel and worship me.”

How could this last test of Jesus been a real temptation if Satan were not the real ruler of this world?

Would the temptation of Jesus in the desert after His baptism really have been a temptation if Satan were not the present ruler of this world? (Remember Satan and one-third of the angels in heaven were cast out of heaven and sent to earth. These are the fallen angels of old still with us today.) Jesus goes into the desert where Satan tempts Him that if Jesus would bow down before him, Satan would give him all the kingdoms of the earth.

Ironically, God the Father gifted Jesus His Son , to be king of the kingdom to come, after the demise and judgment of this world. The Father promises us a new heaven and a new earth in the Book of Revelation, with Jesus Christ as judge and king. Jesus is already sitting at the right hand of God. Every day we can choose to be included in this new kingdom to come by how we live each day of our lives right now. Presently we still have time to use our God-given free will to choose virtue over sin, or good over bad.

Jesus Christ, Son of God, remained faithful amid great temptations. How hungry are you and I after only missing a meal or a day or two of no food? Jesus fasted for forty days and forty nights. He was most certainly at the point of starving, and still chose to do God’s will, not his own.

We get that same choice to make each and every day. Who’s will do we follow?

Sometimes we act as though we are not in charge of ourselves, or our government or situations like global warming or world peace. But everything we think, do and say show us if we are in, or out of balance, and what principles are important to us.

All of us in every country in the world, are at a tipping point of more people choosing bad over good, evil over good, or sin over virtue, not only in our own lives, but in the world at large. We can change this if we want to, but nothing will change unless we consciously decide to choose more good over bad, good over evil, or virtue over sin.

If money is the bottom line, as most people say these days as to what they determine to be the most important reason for decisions made, then humanity is doomed to fail, cities and states are doomed to fail, and the ecological health of the world will fail. In all cases, we can have all the money in the world and die of a disease; Flint, Michigan can have the biggest bank account to save money but unless money is spent to fix drinkable water there, the drinking water will remain toxic; and the world’s economy matters little when global warming is completed and the earth is no more.

There are many factors that affect our decisions, like greed, envy, sloth (laziness), lust, wrath (anger), gluttony and pride. We know these seven pitfalls as the seven deadly sins because they hurt us individually as well as collectively. Each of these negative, bad traits, which are sin, has a positive or good remedy, which is virtue.

Rather than be motivated by greed, we can think, speak and act generously. Perhaps money is not the bottom line after all.

Instead of envy we can practice genuine love.

To improve on sloth (laziness) we can take vitamins and invigorate our dreams, renew our goals, and begin yet again.

To combat the addiction to lust we can welcome purity and modesty in our thoughts, words and actions.

Addressing wrath and uncontrolled anger, a bad habit and often an addiction, requires taking a few deep breaths and allowing understanding, listening to others, improving communication and peaceful solutions to be possible. We may feel justified in our wrathful, renegade emotions, but unless we deal with them with integrity we may have regrets as time goes by.

The solution to gluttony is moderation in food and drink, or any other addiction we are over-indulging in.

Finally, the answer for pride is humility. Being proud of our accomplishments at a job well done is not a bad thing. The problem with pride arises when we go overboard, becoming vain, arrogant and haughty. We do not even like ourselves when we don this puffed up attitude, if we are being perfectly honest.

As strong as the negative traits, more accurately known as sins are, the positive virtues can become just as strong or stronger. It is simply a matter of focusing on good over bad, choosing good over evil, which means choosing virtue over sin. Practicing these seven virtues is one way we can make good shine in our lives.

Modern day thinkers would like us all to believe that there is no sin any more, that negative traits are merely mental, emotional and/or psychological shortcomings when in fact they are sins; calling sins “negative traits’ keeps us from addressing sins head on, complete with admission of fault, followed by forgiveness and mental, emotional and psychological relief.

What is wrong with the world starts with you and me, and the priorities we live by. You and I are each responsible for the conditions in our lives, our neighborhoods, cities and states, and in all countries in the world. Each day you and I get to decide for good, or for bad; for virtue or for sin. We each decide on this very day whether we will choose good over evil, evil over good or virtue over sin, or sin over virtue. We can build ourselves up or we can tear ourselves down. Likewise, we can tear our neighbors down or build them up; like tearing down or building up policies and actions that benefit the entire world.

Why does this matter?

It matters to you as an individual person to mature in integrity and honesty. It matters in order to create the neighborhoods we want to live in. It matters to stand up for the scientific facts that tell of how to fix broken systems in the world. Integrity and truth matter. It is not necessary to kill each other to make this happen. God the Father is Creator of it all.

Thinking of our failings only as bad habits or negative traits keeps us is a downward cycle of “that is just how I am.” But acknowledging our failures as sins, something we can repent and be forgiven for, gives us hope. We can make amends and repair the broken bridges we have broken in our relationships. Try as we might, we will sin before the night is through in our thoughts, words and actions today. We are not perfect. But we keep trying. God the Father will always forgive us, through the Love of Jesus our Savior, and the Love of the Holy Spirit. These are the gifts promised to us by Jesus. Each day we have this hope. There is always hope.

Isn’t it our own business how we live our lives?

Yes, it matters. Yes, it is our own business. The point is that we look at the world, then point fingers at what is wrong with it, when you and I are the snowball that started it all. There are things we can do to fix the problems of personal and global greed, envy, sloth (laziness), lust, wrath (anger), gluttony and pride, as mentioned above. We must start with ourselves if we want our countries to be better, for the sake of the world.

We have to start with the beginning of the problem, not just the middle or end of the problem.

Things never stay the same. Change is the only constant in life. Choosing good over bad, good over evil, or virtue over sin, however you look at it, will create a healthier, kinder, more humane world in which we all can live and thrive. This also creates a new beginning in our relationship with God, which might need our attention at this very moment.

Start right where you are.

Are you in government? Then make the most honest, best decisions you can for the life of all the people under your jurisdiction, and for the life of the planet, not just self interest. Otherwise, you can be the fulcrum that tips towards destruction not only of you personally, but the entire earth. We are very near tipping towards the point of no return. Presently this is possible to fix. Try to be part of the solution, not exacerbating the problem. Things never stay the same. You can be the instrument to save the world as opposed to demolishing it. Ask for God’s help, through the intercession of Jesus Christ, with all the Love the Holy Spirit has to give.

The same goes for the financial crisis erupting in all countries across the globe, and all other matters of importance. Remember this when things get so complicated we cannot see the forest for the trees, think PEOPLE BEFORE THINGS. To have balance, prioritize people by helping where and when you can over taking care of things. Financial matters are things. Things matter, but people matter more. Money is not always the answer for problems people have. Give to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s and to God the things that are God’s.

Yes, it all matters. You matter.

Do not forget to include God the Father, Jesus Christ the Son and the Love of the Holy Spirit in all your decisions for the best results possible.

All people matter, not only the rich, the top one percent of the wealthiest among us; not only the milky white people, but all people represented by the 203 countries including territories and protectorates of the United States of America, most of which are not milky white. God the Father, Creator of heaven and earth, created Jesus His Son as His first Creation before any and everything else, in which Jesus helped to Create every other Creation known to us. We were all Created in Love, and with free will.

We live in a global society. Our friends and families live all over the world. The planes we fly land in most all countries in this one world we share.

We are one race, the human race, here on this planet.

Education matters. Are you in education? Encourage your students/children with critical thinking skills in order that they include compassion and common sense as a problem solving process they can work with, including not mindlessly following the mistakes of some of the prejudiced generations before them. Show them by example how we all can be better people. Pray again. Pray through Jesus Christ, in the Love of the Holy Spirit, to the Father of All Creation, for the minds of all of humanity to continue to grow and learn as we were intended to grow and learn.

Educators, how do you handle bullying, hungry students, students at risk, students compromised in a wide variety of situations, and students standing up for themselves? Education is a priority in every person, family, neighborhood, state and country for the success of the world. Teachers are the shining light, the good that can help so many students in need of empathy, compassion, and understanding to be better citizens of the world. Never stop praying, through the intercession of Jesus Christ, who Himself endured numerous injustices and bullying in this world.

However we think of it, and whatever we think about, we bring about. Let’s make the world a beautiful place to live, within ourselves, with our families and friends, neighborhoods, states, countries and the entire world. Let us include God our heavenly Father, Jesus Christ His Son and our brother, and the Love of the Holy Spirit in our greater families since that is truly what we are, one global family.

God Bless

THE DIGNITY OF THE HUMAN RACE


The dignity of the human race is universal. It knows no boundary to any country, or ocean, north pole or south pole, or equator. The human race in every country has equal amounts of dignity. The northern countries do not have more dignity than the countries south of the equator. There is not more dignity for the human race in the countries east of the prime meredian, than for the human race who happened to settle in the countries to the west of the prime meridian. There are no borders on dignity.

The dignity of the human race encompasses all nationalities, and favors none of them. All nationalities have the same measure of dignity, and no nationality is excluded from the human race allottment of it. Dignity of the human race circles tall human beings, short human beings; human beings with red, brown, black, blonde, grey, white and blue or streaked hair; human beings with freckles, moles, dimples, bumps and bruises, or any other stereotype human beings are catergorized in.

The dignity of the human race is blind to economic, or any other kind of status. Financially poor human beings of planet Earth have the exact same amount of dignity as human beings who find themselves richer in terms of financial wealth. Human beings who have more buttons, or beads, or animals, or cars, or flowers, or boxes, or shoes, or clothes, or vacations, or food, or houses, or boats, or motorcycles, or anything else they can think of, have just as much dignity as those who do not.

The dignity of the human race crosses gender. The entire human race, which includes all human beings, not just some human beings, have equal amounts of dignity, regardless of being male or female, or any kind of division they can imagine.

Dignity of human beings everywhere does not come from other human beings. There is nothing a human being can do to earn dignity, nor pretend not to have it. Dignity for all human beings is a Divine gift, freely given, without conditions or reservations, and above all, is beyond human judgement. Human beings are not in charge of who gets dignity and who does not. Human beings are not in control of the Divine Creator, who created all human beings, with dignity in equal measure.

Over the centuries, some human beings have fortified, bolstered, promoted, and taught the dignity of human beings across the entire planet; while other human beings have misused their egos, their insane egos, to attempt to squash, step on, undermine, eliminate, mask or rob the dignity of all human beings given them by their Creator.

The dignity of the human being is not in the hands of the human beings with the most power or fear tactics over certain groups of human beings, for example at work, socially, civically, environmentally, politically, or even in their own families. The dignity of the human being is in the hand of each individual human being. It is God given.

YOU ARE A BEING OF LIGHT AND A DIVINE FLAME OF LOVE ~ One Love


Waking up to the active force of Divine Love and Light within each one of us sometimes

spiritual_body[1]

grows slowly, at other times we make leaps and bounds of realizations of that fact, while others of us are simply born with this amazing knowledge. Still some of us rather live in denial that we are living, breathing aspects of the Light and Love of Mother-Father God, the Source of All.

The words “active force” are synonymous with “Holy Spirit,” the living, creative energy of Source. God cannot be dissected. This is the very force that animates us. The Bible tells us that we came to life when God breathed life into us. When this animation leaves us, our spirits leave us, we cease to be in bodily form. This much we know.

Even those of us who know we have the spark of God alive and well inside of us, sometimes get a bit of amnesia, and seek for some guru, some religion or church, or some teacher of spirituality outside of our very selves.

Think of the word “guru.” Spell it out slowly; “Gee You Are You.” Surprise!

Notice the words that are a subtitle to this blog, “STEP INTO YOUR POWER. STEP INTO YOU MASTERY.”

The answers we seek are not outside of ourselves. We know the truth when we hear it. Those of us who have tried finding the truth outside of us know this to be true. Reading earlier posts in this blog will explain how we were not created in sin, nor was the stain of original sin ours. That was the sin of the angels. We were created perfect, infused with the Light and Love of Mother-Father God, our very own God particle.

We all have the God-given gift of free will, no matter what country we live in. Some of us live in countries that do not promote free will. It does not mean that God did not give everyone the gift of free will just because someone or some country robs them of it.

We can use our free will to become aware of the Light and Love of God that is planted, as a seed of life within us at our birth, by means of prayer and meditation. We pray, not as a needy beggar, nor meditate as a spiritually blocked or fearful individual. It begins by making a decision to change our approach.

Rather, we use our God-given free will to unite with our Source in quiet reflection. What are we reflecting? We are reflecting the Light and Love of our God. We can’t help but notice that with this reflection, this prayer, this meditation, that the Flame of Love grows to such a degree that the Light within us equally grows. We can shine so brightly that others can see the transformation that takes place in our hearts and minds, demonstrated in our attitudes, thoughts, words and actions. There is a lightness to Light and Love that permeates our entire four-body system: our mind, body, spirit and aura that reaches all the way back to Source. We are not separate. We are One with each other. We are One with Source. We are One.

We begin to radiate with the Light and Love of which we are made of.
