You only
think you know what you want. To know what you truly want you'd have to go backwards in time and remember how you felt about everyone and everything when you were yet a young child. Remember how you loved everything and everyone and wanted everyone to feel loved and happy and safe. Remember how there were no "inanimate objects" and everything was endowed with life and energy and presence. Maybe you can't remember this state of innocence any longer, but I do.
This world is but a dream based on the concepts of limitation, competition and dearth. Resources, we are taught, are scant. There is not enough to go around and, to get what we think we want, we must compete, and someone else must do without in order for us to "have". But the actual fact is that, the only way to "have", and to demonstrate that having, is to be be the source of all you "desire". The True Will, as it turns out, is antithetical to the concepts of competition and dearth. The True Will is echoed in the blessedness we feel when giving because that alone demonstrates that we are the source of all we desire. This Truth, being lived and
real-ized, how can be ever be without? And the True Will is that no one "go without" and that everyone re-
cognize who they truly are: Source.
How can we be happy when our brothers and sisters are suffering in dearth? Oh, we can and do take our passing pleasures and assuage our pain, but we are not truly happy because what we Will is to celebrate with all the utter surcease of abundance and cooperation. We Will to live lives that are meaningful and have purpose. Caught up in the illusions of dearth, competition and of "taking", we fall into a dream of meaninglessness and the pursuit of passing pleasures as we try to escape the messages that the metaphor of revelation has etched upon the world. We do this because we do not know that we are the source of the Miracle that heals every illusion. But, to find that power, we must ask the meaning of what appears to present.
EVERYone who comes into my life comes for one of two purposes and, sometimes, for both: They come to heal or to be healed. Sometimes we heal each other mutually, both of spiritual/emotional pain and physical dis-
ease. All physical dis-ease is an echo of emotional/spiritual discomfort: an issue unreconciled. You can treat symptoms or you can address the cause. There is nothing in this world that is not a physical manifestation of a deeper spiritual reality. Life is a streaming revelatory experience in metaphor.
If I could heal the world myself of one error it would be the belief in dearth and the need for competition. The next great healing would be the idea that things happen TO us, rather than FOR us. No dis-ease presents that is not there to point our awareness at the deeper spiritual issue that is in need of being reconciled. Reconciliation is forgiveness and forgiveness is the
real-ization of the concept that "Nothing happens TO us. It ALL happens FOR us." Your Shepherd never leaves you. Everything He sends He sends out of love that we not leave this world of physicality with anything left unreconciled/unforgiven.
I am the Miracle that you have been looking for - and so are you. The only difference is I know what I am, while you are yet identified with your dream. You are my reason to be. I am what you believe you lack, here to remind you of what you already are.
I love you all.
The cost of Nothing is Everything and the price of Everything is Nothing: Nothing but your unhappy dreams of separation wherein someone must be damned that you can be saved. No one can be saved without their brother at their side. We will laugh together in mutual salvation or weep in apparent isolation in illusions of damnation, trapped in a dream world of our own projected fear. We rest in our Father's arms and only dream of our exile from Heaven's abundance.
