Be impeccable with your choice of words, for they will determine your ensuing emotions, thoughts, and actions all jumbled together until you may not recognize the source of your challenges. Caught up in such a jumble, you may then lose awareness of the Source of who you are. What words [...]

Courage … it is not a human trait, but a natural quality of the soul. Why is this? Because fear is a human trait. Fear arises from the human’s many “what-ifs” and the unending, “But I might’s.” Fear arises from the belief that one is separate from all others and [...]

When another has angered you, you have given them power. When another has disappointed you, you have given away your power. In both cases it is the same: giving power to another or giving away your own occurs each time you allow another’s actions to determine your emotions. Thoughts generally [...]

When you become so fixed in a position that you find yourself saying, “I absolutely cannot _____” (and you fill in the blank), then you have dammed the flow. The flow of what? Of creativity, of spontaneity, of new ideas, of freedom … of Life! There is always another way [...]

You can give someone a tool, but you cannot make them use it after you have left them with it. So many of you wish to help others. You have found ways of bringing peace into your lives and you share them with others in hopes of them finding the [...]

“Ever since I can remember …” Have you not heard yourself say this? And this shows a pattern. Patterns are to be avoided if you wish to grow. Why? For all of life is about change, and if you or someone else has been doing or thinking something ever since [...]

“Flattery will get you anywhere,” you say, and that is not exactly so. Flattery can take you most often directly to the head where ego wants you. Puffed up by flattery, you will remain in the illusion of your separation from others. There is nothing wrong with flattery. It is [...]

Your mind can be your greatest challenge. You think you have to think everything through, and therein lies the challenge: you think. The moment you begin analyzing, you have stepped away from the feeling part of you that communicates most clearly with the greater part of you: the heart. The [...]

Chores, chores, chores, how you abhor them. Necessities of life bring drudgery to some and joy to others. Why is this? Have you not heard the saying, “What does a man do after he has become enlightened?” Chop wood and carry water.” In other words, as awakened as you may [...]

“I am here for you.” Such beautiful words. Can you imagine how your world would change if all would act from a place where this is the predominant thought? Instead of “What is in it for me?” the soul is more concerned with giving and serving. Why, with this attitude, [...]

Love is the only answer. “How naïve!” some say, and that depends completely on the level from which you are viewing the world. From a human viewpoint, where you are mixing with souls who do not realize they are souls, love will not stop a bullet. Yes, we are being [...]

When you are the victim of deliberate cruelty or deceit, you wish to lash out. This is understandable. The human is programmed to fight fire with fire.   If you are able to take a moment and breathe, you will see that anger solves nothing. Reacting in kind does no good [...]

Beware of “us vs. them” thinking. When conceived in judgment, it results in anger, fear, and other lesser qualities of the human personality. Be aware there is another aspect of you: that of the soul. All humans are souls. Note that we did not say, “All humans have a soul.” [...]

This is it … the moment you have been waiting for! The future never comes, for there is no past, no future, and in reality no present. Try to pin down the present moment. You cannot do it. Time is like an ever-moving conveyor belt. Try to capture a moment [...]

You call them spirits—your loved ones who have passed—but they are just like you, albeit living at a different level of reality. Their world is as real to them, as solid as yours. They live, they love, they play. Do not grow jealous thinking that they now love others and [...]

Do not make the mistake of thinking that because a person passes to the other side they immediately have all knowledge. Growth and increasing understanding are an ongoing process there just as here. Even your guides do not have “all of the answers,” depending upon what level of growth they [...]

Harboring fears and doubts … why do you use such a word as “harbor” in this case? A harbor is a place where vessels dock or anchor, where they seek shelter from storms, where they stay temporarily before venturing out to sea again. Vessels are meant to venture out, not [...]

“All That Is.” How often do you hear this term for your Source? Do you take it literally, or do you envision exclusions? Does the All That Is include the terrorist? Does the All That Is include the so-called sinner? We have been speaking of late of darkness as the [...]

Turn the page and begin with a clean sheet.  Is this not how you begin each day?  Sleep is a time to rejuvenate the body, but also a time to make a clean break from the thoughts and actions of the previous day.  The previous day is gone.  It exists [...]

On this day in which you give thanks, stop and do so for yourself—not just for all the things external.  Inside you lies the greatest treasure you can imagine—the link to All That Is.  That which you call your True Self is the soul—the part of you which is eternal [...]

All of the Universe exists for your enjoyment.  You are here to play and create, for who are you, but a focus of the consciousness of the Great Creator?  It is through your experiences that God experiences God’s creations.  How else would God be able to play? Go forth each [...]

Family reunions.  You have your gatherings in the physical life, but we wish to let you know that those who have passed do the same.  They gather round you in times of trouble and in times of joy.  How could it not be so?  Once joined in love, always connected.  [...]

So many of you want to know about your loved ones on the other side.  “Are they okay?” you ask.  “Are they happy?”  In so asking, you are placing them in a human context.  In your world there is okay and not okay.  There is happy and sad.  You come [...]

Abundance comes in many forms.  The greatest of these is love.  There is nothing wrong with material things, but be cautioned against having them take the place of human interaction.  Do not allow material things to create a sense of superiority.  If they allow you to appreciate the endless bounty [...]

The death of a loved one is a trying time for those on earth, no matter how enlightened you are.  You share memories with the one who passes.  You share love and concern.  Concern yourself at this time with those who do not have the full understanding of this very [...]

A long journey begins with a single step. Do not worry about the distance you have to travel. Be aware only of being. You are. You, at another level, are neither here nor there, and you exist not in time, but in the timeless state of being. How does this [...]

No challenge is too great when you access the Level of All Awareness. Your challenges arise at the Level of Relativity, which you know as the physical world. All solutions arise from the Sea of Possibilities, where all exists in potential. To access that vast ocean of potential you must [...]

You have all the resources you need at your fingertips. Hold out your hand and look at those fingers. Now move them until they point at your heart. That is where you get in touch with the greatest Source of guidance available to you. Some of you have amassed quite [...]

There is nothing wrong with you. You are a work in progress in a world where all is relative. As you continually compare yourself with others, you will feel good or bad, right or wrong, good enough or not good enough. This is relativity. And what of the real you [...]
