Retaliation

"When is enough, enough?!?" This question is generally asked when another senseless act of violence, be it physical and/or emotional, is projected from one to another. Because you have forgotten who you are, the reason for asking that very question is what keeps Truth hidden from you. Because you believe what your eyes tell you by seeing with your eyes (sight) and not through your eyes (vision,) you become a prisoner of Fear. This explains "LIVE by Faith, not by sight."

The Daily/Nightly/Round the clock news focuses heavily on negative things happening in and around your neighborhood and yes, even around the world. Because you have forgotten Who God is, you panic in Fear and lose all rationale. You believe what you see with your eyes, which generally focuses on the negative. Too often it's said "that's the human nature of mankind" however that's really Ego's lame excuse you've been convinced is true. 

What's True is, you are a Spiritual being in physical form (body) but for a short while. Your purpose is to realize there is no other purpose for you but to live life in gratitude of life. Allow the Holy Spirit make clear your vision by reminding you of what you've forgotten, that God is in control at ALL times, so you will see there is never a need for retaliation. 

When you remember this One and only Truth, that God is Love, you will more likely be able to see God/Love in others, despite the disguises Ego uses through Fear (anger, bitterness, resentment, confusion, etc.) and not retaliate which always leave Regret and Shame in its wake. History has been repeating the same lesson time and again...so does the question "when is enough, enough?" continue to be asked.

Learn this from any one of the most recent acts of madness; We, mankind, are Spiritual beings in human form (body.) Our differences in appearance, culture, religion, opinion, political party, gender, sexual preference, etc., has nothing  to do with the fact that we are One Human Race. When we can be of One accord is when retaliation will cease and Enough will be Enough! Peace

Never Give Up!

Because you have forgotten who you are, a Spiritual being created by God in physical form - body, you are more likely to give up when "shit hits the fan." Rather than accept reality for what it is (that God is the only One in control here, not you or anyone/thing else for that matter) you choose instead to make up your own reality. It's called Denial. When brought to your attention in attempt to awaken you, you think you're being attacked and so you defend yourself by using Ego's lamest defense mechanism, "I'm not, perfect, I'm only human!" 

Correction 1. Yes, you are perfect! Nothing God creates is imperfect, period! Correction 2. You are not only human and the reason you believe that is precisely why you suffer. Choose instead to allow the Holy Spirit to remind you to live by Faith not by sight so when "shit hits the fan," you will see it for exactly what it is and know what to do about it. You see, everything in Life happens for a reason, or there would be no reason for it. Life circumstances are a test and the reason for each test/circumstance is to determine with whom your Faith lies. Forget this and you will eventually grow weary and give up.

Here it is in a nut shell: See every challenging life situation for what it is, a test. Remember Who is in control at all times, God, not you!  Put down worry, anger, fear, etc., by giving it to God and leave it there! Stay awake to what is real, the fact that We are all One and the same so that what brought you to the point of giving up will be exactly what brings you to the next phase in your life. And with the Holy Spirit as your guide, it's all good from here! Peace

Don't Lie To Me!

Because you have forgotten who you are, a Spiritual being, you are confused by what Ego made up and so you identify yourself (and others) by gender, race, religion, etc. This explains your resistance to those whom do not fit your description of what is "normal" (according to what society deems acceptable.) Because Ego rules what society does, please know all of it is pointless yet because it's Ego that runs the show, chaos and conflict is to be expected. For this very reason, lives are being taken at the hands of another at an unimaginable rate, and for what?!? What makes no sense at all, Sad.

Because you have forgotten Who God is, you take matters into your own hands. Not convinced? Take an assessment of the relationships in your life, all of them (Parent/Child, Sibling, Spousal, Professional, Neighbors/Community, Friendships, etc.,) and ask yourself "do I have Peace in these relationships?" Take an assessment of the state of this country, our world. Does this seem like the results you would get if it were left up to Him? Let's be honest here, the evidence is what it is.

Rather than spend another minute trying to understand what the problem is and/or where it came from, (another one of Ego's tactics to distract you by keeping you in the Past to waste more time) allow the Holy Spirit to remind you the Present moment is the only thing that matters in this world. How so? The Present moment is the only place you will ever find these life changing experiences;

Love. Because it's an action, one must be Present to offer Love and the other must also be there to accept Love from you. Any other form may be confused for Love but will never replace Love - it can't be replaced because God is Love!

Peace. Because it's found in Silence, one must be Present to have and live in Peace. It is often mistaken for what money can buy however because Peace is of God, it is priceless and no one or nothing on earth can take it from you! (You just forgot).

Joy. Because it's a state of being, one must be Present in order to experience Joy. Too many settle for what makes them happy in that moment not realizing the sacrifice Ego will demand as payment later. For because happiness is only temporary, Pain and Suffering are soon to take its place.   

Do not continue to be fooled! Do not spend another minute holding on to what will never change, Past. Letting go (Forgiveness) is the key that unlocks the prison Ego keeps you enslaved in. Do not worry yourself about how things are going to work out (Future). Because God is the One in control, and He holds the Future in His hands, there is nothing to worry about! (You forgot that too).

Because you are a Spiritual being, you already know the Truth. Don't look for it and you'll never have to say "Don't lie to me!" Peace.

Delusional

Ego, ruler of the world, has one goal - whatever will initiate and maintain conflict which comes with drama. For only they guarantee Ego's existence. No one and nothing else matters but Ego's need to exist, which poses the threat. This is where Fear comes in. 

Because you have lost sight of what is real, you believe what you see with your eyes. You believe all of what Ego made up even to where Ego convinced you it's there to protect you! How ridiculous?!? You've come to believe what Ego made up because you do not recognize what is real. You've been fooled into giving meaning and value to what makes absolutely no sense at all. To add insult to injury, you choose to go back to what you agree makes no sense because of Fear. It's one thing to face the Truth and an entirely different beast to live IN Truth. 

Because you have lost sight of God, you believe what you've been taught rather than listen to the  voice on the inside. There is no sound, but an undeniable knowing. A stillness like no other, free of Fear and worry about what will happen in the near and distant Future. Only when life is lived in this stillness called Peace, will you be able to see crystal clear what is real and what isn't. Peace is a gift from God through the Holy Spirit Whom reminds you to not look for anything here on earth. You already have everything you need! 

The delusions come because you've forgotten this about yourself. You've forgotten about the Power of God given to ALL that believe God (Love) is The One and only answer to all problems. Delusions come because you don't know what else to believe. You've lost your way which explains your why you hesitate to stand up for what you know is True. You're confused because when using what you see with your eyes to determine what the next step should be, Fear will always steer you down the wrong path. 

Don't be delusional, it's not complicated. Drop Ego and choose humility (putting others before you - the complete opposite of the way Ego thinks) and you'll laugh out loud at what you gave, and lost, so much thought and energy to. Peace

Bad Blood

Because you have forgotten who you are, Fear instantly appears and blindfolds you. From this point you're confused and afraid which explains your poor choices and irrational decisions. Because you have forgotten Who God is, you really believe Ego is there to protect you, when if fact, it's the complete opposite that is True.

Because You are the one who holds The Power of God in You (it was placed there By God Himself when He created Man) You can do anything You put your mind to. "I can do ALL things through Christ Who strengthens me" means just that! Please know, because the efficacy of God's Power does not change, when used outside and apart from His will, which is always Love, Pain and Suffering is a guaranteed result. The state of too many relationships is evident of this. Ego plays on the fact that you've lost your way. Being afraid and confused are exactly what Ego uses to make Bad Blood. Neighbors, Siblings, Coworkers, Spouses, etc. are examples of relationships soured by Ego's poisonous concoctions.

You see, Ego does (and will continue to do) anything to keep you from the Truth. The Truth is the fact that we look different on the out side, the Human form, is by no means to be considered when it comes to our relation to one another. The Truth is We are One. Remember that when Ego attempts to remind you of what another did/said to or about you. It's always to achieve it's goal which is to cause and maintain conflict, war; Bad Blood.

Choose instead to allow the Holy Spirit to remind you that because you are a Spiritual being in physical form but for a short while, there is no thing and no one that can hurt you and so there really is no threat. Because you are a Spiritual being in Human (physical) form, not the other way around,  Pain and Suffering ceases the moment You are able to fully understand and accept that because His blood was shed once and for ALL, because of ForGiveness, an offering, there is no such thing as Bad Blood! Peace.

Immortal

Because you have forgotten who you are, a Spiritual being, Ego convinced you Death is to feared. For this reason, marketing companies capitalize on selling whatever will keep you looking as far away from Death's door as possible, Agelessness/Immortality.

Because you take what your eyes tell you to be True, you are confused in thinking anything on Earth can prevent the inevitable. What you don't remember is because God is eternal, nothing created by Him is temporary. Meaning because the physical body has an expiration date that only God knows, do not waste Time surgically altering your body so that you fit what society deems beautiful or at the very least, acceptable. 

Remember, you are not your body! Please allow the Holy Spirit to show you all of what Ego made up is not True. It's not necessary that one learn this lesson through a traumatic experience however that's usually what does it!  

Instead, choose to contemplate this fact. Because God (Divine Power/Source, Allah, Jehovah, Yahweh, whatever you're comfortable identifying with) is the Creator of the Universe and the only One in control at ALL times, Trust there is more to Life than what you see. This explains "Live by Faith not by Sight," for as Ego continues on its war path, causing and maintaining conflict to complete its ultimate goal, Death, you will not be affected. Because you are a Spiritual being created by God, there is nothing to Fear considering Fear IS nothing.

Because you are Immortal, a Spiritual being, use the gift God gave you, Life, to honor Him for it by being grateful. This is done only when the Present moment is experienced. Do not wait until...
Because you are Immortal, use the little Time granted to you to bless others and your "cup" will overflow with blessings beyond anything you could have ever imagined. Peace
