"Be still and know that I am God." Stillness is an absence of thought, the thought that comes from your mind. Have you ever witnessed your thoughts and how crazy they can become? How they jump around from subject to subject with complete randomness? How they are always based in the past (what happened) or the future (what will happen), never the present moment. Something this random and chaotic can not come from God.
Within stillness there is thought. This is the thought that comes from God. This is the thought that comes through as our intuition, our gut feel, our hunches, our knowing. This thought arises naturally without effort, without fear. But it can only arise when it is not crowded out by the other type of thought. For the vast majority, the thought from their mind is there 99.999% of the time. This creates a situation where one places validity on these thoughts --- kind of like the idea that if there is smoke, there must be fire.
But these thoughts are not valid. Only the ones from God are, and an amazing thing happens once you start to realize this --- more of the God thoughts come in. As you withdraw belief in what is not real, it begins to fade away. Be still and know that I am God cannot be any more clear. It is not written as a parable, but rather it is a simple instruction through which you can change your life.

When you are given guidance to help someone, after you have given
it, let go of any expectations. You have done what God has asked you to
do. Whether that guidance is incorporated by the other person is not up
to you, and there is such a large picture at play, that you would not
know when and to what degree the guidance was used.
We are only vessels through which He acts, and He can only use us to the degree that we get out of the way.

Be YourSelf, not yourself.
There is a preoccupation in this world with the body. There are procedures to "enhance" every single body part. This is how far we have come from God that we worship the body which is only a vehicle for our Spirit and which will pass away into dust. You are not a body. You are Spirit. If someone is worshiping the body, they are living in a fear and separation consciousness. They are living in self judgment, because the more someone needs to feel good about themselves by trying to look good for others and glorify something which is temporary, the less they know their identity comes from God --- and there can be no self judgment when we know our Oneness with God. Not only is this happening individually, but collectively all of this self judgment is projected into the world and we are fed messages that we are not good enough, that we have to do all these things to make the body better. It is all one big emperor has no clothes illusion. If it wasn't so sad, it would be comical. You must remove yourself from this mass consciousness non reality and come to know who you are in Truth. You must come to know your Self, not yourself. This is why you are here.

Why does someone think that they can worship God on Sundays and
worship the world the rest of the week? Does Truth have any exceptions?
Can you live partially in Truth and partially in illusion? Can you be in
partial Communion with Him? Can you Love Him only some of the time?
Of course you can't do any of those things because partiality does not exist, separation does not exist. There exists an appearance of partiality and separation, but appearances are not Truth. Live in Truth. Live in the reality that All is One. Live in the knowing, BE the knowing, that you cannot love God only part of the time, as He cannot love you only partially. You can fool yourself into believing that you can love Him or be with Him only part of the time, or plenty of people fool themselves into believing that He does not exist, but you cannot change Truth. Let us thank God for that. It would be a living hell if we could be separate from Him or if He would only love us part of the time.
You move
and have your being in Him, and He expresses through you. That means He
is closer than your breath. Ponder that for a while and it will create
fundamental changes in your life.

As we have discussed many times --- but it needs to be reinforced
many many times --- you are a part of God. Quantum physics has proven
that only Unity exists and this is what is meant by God is One, God is
All that is.
Wow, that is incredible. God expresses through you and you share His holiness. That is your identity, not the roles you play. Too many people believe this world is the only reality and they think they ARE the famous lawyer, the middle child, the forgotten grandmother, the oppressed minority. These roles are not who you are. These are different expressions of God. You move and have your being in Him, and He expresses through you to have a human experience, kind of like Joseph's coat of many colors. We are all the different colors, unique expressions of God but at the same time we are One. As a unique expression, you have preferences. You may like traditions from a certain religion or you may like to live in a warmer climate etc. Many people condemn others for their preferences, especially when it comes to religion, sexual orientation, etc. Would you condemn someone because they like strawberry ice cream and you like vanilla? Of course not, and there is no difference between this and any other preference. If you think there is a difference, you likely live in a fear consciousness and you are projecting your judgments --- self judgment projected out --- on to others, groups, etc. If you live in a Unity consciousness and you feel God's Presence within you, you know that All is One, All is Love, All is as it should be, and this reality is only a very temporary but incredible learning ground for us to have Love and compassion on others and come back to a remembrance of our divinity. Too many individuals and groups see themselves as oppressed and act like a victim instead of a warrior. A warrior takes responsibility for the ripples they create and he or she knows that anything said or done to another from anger/harm/evil is only going against their Divine nature and hurting themself because we are One --- what is done to one is done to another. Further, a warrior recognizes that they have chosen these roles, they have chosen to be a minority or part of an "oppressed" group because this was how they wanted to individually evolve and how they wanted to heal the world --- why would you get upset about something you chose at a Spirit level? And the world badly needs healing. So next time you feel victimized and want to lash out, ask yourself what you want to put back out there. What do you believe about yourself? Are you the roles you play? It is your life and your choices, but the logical thing --- what His Will is -- seems to do things which affirm your Divine nature and bring you His joy and peace. Unfortunately, many people don't seem to do things in their best interest.

When you come to know God and His gentleness and Love, you understand that His Grace is upon you. When you release false beliefs, you know that you are deserving of that Grace, and you know that His Grace can redeem and heal you of remaining beliefs and afflictions. Then it is just a matter of asking Him to use His Grace to do this. Ultimately, you know that without Him and His Grace, nothing is possible. For of yourself, you are nothing.

Emptiness, having nothing, is the space that God enters in to.
Actually, He is already there, but He is revealed to you in the
emptiness and stillness.
Having nothing does not mean that you are devoid of possessions. Having nothing means that you are devoid of attachment to possessions. You cannot love this world and love God at the same time. You can love being in this world and being part of Creation unfolding, love being part of God expressing through you, everyone, and everything, enjoy the things of this world, but that is different than loving the things of this world and placing them above Him.

When you have an emotional reaction to something, like you get really angry, go beneath the surface. There is a progression of beliefs that are behind the reaction. It is not a surface belief like "he did this to me" that you want. Keep going and uncover the base belief around this.
It will be something, something false, that you believe about yourself and your relationship with God. If you never dig deep into these emotional reactions, you will continue having the same reactions to the same situations, and this can be defined as insanity.

We are told that we are created in God's image, and this is very
true. As we have discussed before, quantum physics has proven that only
Unity, one unified energy field exists --- there is no separation! When
we say that God is One, we are saying that God is All, and contrary to
what your eyes "see," you are One with everything and everyone. And this
means that you share the attributes of God.
But except for a very small number of people, most of the world sees God in their image, in how they view themselves. So if you self judge, you will see God as judgmental. If you see yourself as sinful, you will see God, not as sin, but as separate from you and judging you for your "sin." This is because most people live through an ego perspective. The ego is actually a very small part of who you are, and the ego passes away into nothingness when your Spirit leaves this reality, but most people feel no connection to who they truly are at a Spirit level and think the ego is all there is. The ego has been formed from your experiences and beliefs, especially what happened to you in childhood. If your parents weren't loving to you, you likely came to believe that you were not lovable. This created rose colored glasses for how you see others, the world, and especially God. So you don't believe that God is a loving God and you believe that He will judge and punish you for your "sins." But God is Love. This is a not a human love --- this is a Divine Love which means that God loves us unconditionally, regardless of our actions or thoughts. He cannot do otherwise for He is Love! And you are that Love, if you can uncover and release those false beliefs which keep the ego "in control" and which prevent you from seeing who you truly are. We are each evolving individually to come back to a recognition of that Love, and we are evolving collectively. So in the Old Testament times, God was seen as a judgmental and punishing God. But Jesus came to awaken us to the recognition that God is Love, and this is what we are all being asked to see. Many people see "negative" events as God's punishment, but an event is just an event --- it is how it is viewed which determines whether it is "good" or "bad." When we take a higher perspective, and we understand that we are here in this reality to grow and come back to God in our recognition and remembrance --- not in reality for we have never left Him --- we can see the gifts in everything that happens to us. We can see that everything is Love, and everything that happens, even the "negative" stuff, is meant not to punish us but to help us release attachment to this false world and to awaken us to our greater reality. We can see that this life is very temporary, almost like participating in dream or a play on the stage, and that we are eternal Spirit, one with the Love that created us out of Love.

God, who is Love, created us with immense joy. When you create
anything from a space of love, you feel great joy in that. Creation
cannot unfold without YOU as an active participant because God works
through you. In Unity with God, you are a Co-Creator, creating from
Love.

We are all receiving the same truth and each of us has the potential to
be a great teacher and savior for the world. How can it be otherwise
when we are One? It is not how much you have. It is how much you take
away, how much ego you let go of, which reveals how much Truth shines through you.

Most people spend way too much time trying to figure out and then worrying about the details to make something happen.
If you can't yet see how it comes together, it is for good reason. God has it! He is likely still laying the pieces of the puzzle in place.
When you try to make it happen on your own, you are not making it happen at all, because you are not affirming that He has it. And your actions in trying to get something done become like pushing on a string. When you worry that it is not happening, you are using your creative power, your gift from God, to affirm that it is NOT happening, and then it will not.
What you think and believe is what you get. Your task is to continually feel the joy as if it has already happened, because when you do that, it has truly happened, even if that seed has not yet popped its head above ground. It will. When you feel the joy as if it has happened, you can then be led to what actions you need to take. This is you floating effortlessly on the River of Life versus you fighting the current.

Do you realize that a great deal of your internal conflict and angst comes from expectations that aren't being met. You live in a "should be" paradigm.
I should be in a relationship at this point. I should be more spiritual. I should have accumulated more abundance by now. I should have done something to better help the world.
All of these "should be's" can only lead to self judgment as you don't meet your own expectations. Comparison and judgment are not part of God because they do not exist in Oneness. Drop your "should be's" and your comparisons and your self judgment will fall away. When self judgment falls away, only God remains.

If you believe you have to hold on to His peace, joy, and Love because you may lose them, then you will lose them --- rather you will lose feeling them. We both have and are His peace, joy, and Love. These are gifts of the Kingdom, gifts of our Oneness with Him. You cannot lose that which you are, but your belief that you can lose them creates an appearance that you have.

The following lyrics from the song by the Babys say it all. "Everytime I think of you, it always turns out good." Everytime you think of Him, it will always turn out good, so why don't you think of Him in every moment? He thinks of you, He is with you in every moment. He Loves you in every moment.

If you will witness your thoughts, you will see, even if you are a very loving or spiritually advanced person, that sometimes you have a thought related to God being a punishing God.
This belief may or may not appear in this form. It may be thoughts related to you are not good enough or severe judgments of others, which are judgments you have about yourself and project out.
When we believe that we have sinned against God, and this is the central underlying belief carried in this consciousness, we believe that He will punish us. Inherent to this is the belief that we have separated from Him. When you feel self judgment, this arises because you believe you are separate, even though separation is impossible.
We are One with Him always, eternally, since the moment of our Creation.

God would not be much of a God if He wants you to fear Him. God would not be much of a God if He sees what you see as sins as anything other than illusory errors. He would not be much of a God if He wants to punish you, for Love loves.
You are One with Him, and He expresses through you --- why would He punish Himself? If you see God in these ways, and most people walking this planet do, then you are assigning human, ego based qualities to Him. He is not your human parent --- He is your divine one. You formed a false concept of God as a child with parents or caretakers who were human and who could not love unconditionally.

Your power comes from not caring what other people think of you. For
this is looking outside of yourself for your identity, and your
identity can only come from God --- not your parents, not your spouse,
your boss, your religious community, etc.
Do you need someone's approval to feel better about yourself? The only approval you need is from yourself and God, and I can assure you that God unconditionally loves and approves of you --- as you are! No changes needed.
When He created you as part of Himself, there were no changes
necessary. And nothing has changed since the moment of your creation.
Perfect, holy, without "sin." When you can walk through the world and
know your Unity, know that you are perfect as you are, know that others
are perfect as they are, know that others are asleep and their
perception of you has no bearing on how you see yourself, then you are
FREE.

We worry because we are not trusting in God. If we have full trust,
then we are certain of the outcome, and there is no need to worry,
correct?
Because we believe that we have sinned against God, we do not trust that He has our highest good and that He will take care of all of our needs. Does He not know exactly what we need? Will He not give us the Kingdom if we only ask? He will, because we are the Kingdom --- we are One with Him --- and all the fruits of the Kingdom are our birthright. How can we worry about something in the "future" that may or may not happen? Boy is that wasted energy. The future doesn't exist anyways, only the present moment does. Science has proven this. So we are reinforcing a paradigm that doesn't even exist. No wonder it causes great fear and anxiety. By releasing your false beliefs that you have sinned against God, you are able to be in the present moment and feel His Presence. There can be no fear or worry there. Your "problems" don't exist in that space because you have Him --- you have everything you need to feel safe and secure. Because you are safe and secure as Spirit, not as a body that is worrying about whether it will lose its job etc. Yes, you are Spirit in a body, and the body's needs have to be met, but if you know yourself as Spirit, if you expect and KNOW that God will provide, He will provide. It's when you worry and see yourself only as a body that He can't help you because you have the power of Creation through what you think. What are you choosing to think? What are you choosing to focus your power on?

We are on a spiritual journey AND we are at our destination.
For we have never left the holy moment of our creation. Time and space are an illusion in this dream. Science has proven this. God created us out of Love, and we are in this moment eternally. This can never change! But "we fell from Grace." We believed that we had sinned against God and we believed we had induced a state of separation. Separation is impossible as only Unity exists --- God is One, God is All, and YOU are part of that Unity. This "journey" is not a real journey. It is simply a remembering. We are being shown --- God is speaking to us through every source imaginable in each moment --- of His Love and who we truly are. Start witnessing all the ways God is helping you remember --- people, experiences, dreams, etc. When you have "hard" times, you are not being punished. You are being Loved! It is your resistance --- your holding on to unhealthy beliefs and patterns --- which creates suffering. As we release false beliefs, we remember and recognize that we are Divine. And then we know that we have all the gifts of the Kingdom ---- abundance, peace, joy, and Love. video --- https://youtu.be/WmVitawKLxg Lawrence Doochin These posts are similar to the over 2500 contained on The Divine Speaks website (www.thedivinespeaks.com) where God gives YOU the one that you need to hear at that time.

We exist in a stream of God consciousness. We are meant to move in
this River by floating effortlessly, without trying to control where we
go. When we resist where Life wants to take us, we become bloodied on
the rocks. When we resist, we suffer. We will experience pain in this
life, but we don't have to experience suffering.
The fun part of floating on the River of Life is that you never know what the next bend in the River will bring. Allow yourself to be surprised and be open to wherever the journey takes you. You will be taken on an incredible ride. All of the Kingdom will be given you, all of the abundance of Love, joy, peace, financial security, loving relationships, etc. video --- https://youtu.be/Dhft_uskNwc Lawrence Doochin These posts are similar to the over 2500 contained on The Divine Speaks website (www.thedivinespeaks.com) where God gives YOU the one that you need to hear at that time.

What does it mean to transmute something, why do we want to do it, and how do we do it?
Transmutation means to change it. We change it by recognizing that everything is of God, for God is One, God is All. So all "poisons" can be transmuted when viewed with the proper perspective. There are thoughts/beliefs that each of us push away, because we judge ourselves for having these thoughts. What if we accepted them instead? When we push them away or judge them, we are saying they are not of God, and this creates a belief in separation which does not exist. If we accept them and stay present with them, they transmute from something which appears and feels yucky or bad to you. Most people have coping mechanisms they use to take them out of feeling bad and out of the self judgment. So when these times happen, they medicate with food, drugs/alcohol, internet or television, obsessive exercise, certain sexual behaviors, etc. Instead of running from it, pull God into it, and sit with it. Stay present with the unpleasantness and Him at the same time. When you do this, there will be rapid growth in your discovery of Self and your relationship with Him.

Because we are One, we have the power of God, of all Creation inside us. As Jesus said, we can move mountains and do greater things than Him. Think of how holy and powerful that is. Unlike what many of our religious traditions have told us, we don't need to go through an intermediary to be with God. He is right there within us, closer than our breath. By releasing what is false, you will feel His Presence.
Our identity comes from God. We play roles in this dream like the top
lawyer or the President of the US or the middle child or the forgotten
grandmother, but these are only roles, not who we truly are. We are
Cocreators with God and we are His Beloved.

What is the difference between these two statements? " I see the world as it is" and "The world is as I see it"
How we view individual situations and the world is a reflection of how we view ourselves. All is One. There is nothing "external" to you. If you view things "negatively" then you have negative beliefs about yourself, and those are the colored glasses through which you see the world (which is you). So you are living as "The world is as I see it." Your task is to see the world as it is, which is how God sees it. To see the Kingdom. Then you can see past appearances to the Love that underlies all, and you can experience that Love, peace, and joy. video on this --- https://youtu.be/s7PSU4u62rU Lawrence Doochin These posts are similar to the over 2500 contained on The Divine Speaks website (www.thedivinespeaks.com) where God gives YOU the one that you need to hear at that time.

There is never a time that God is not speaking to you. He speaks through other people, experiences, dreams, animals coming across your path --- He is All and He speaks through All.
When you need to know something, you simply have to ask, but then you need to listen. If you can't hear an answer or can't distinguish the answer from your ego mind chatter, then you must give yourself the space to hear by going into meditation, taking a walk in the woods, turning off all devices, not watching the news, etc. If you choose the world over him, then you likely won't hear His answer.
Even for those who hear the answer, many do not follow it because they think they know what is best for them or they don't want to give up something, like an identity or a relationship. If you hear God's answer and you don't follow it, why would you think that your life will improve. Does He not know what is your highest good?

We must honor all paths. There are certain paths that may speak to you more and you may practice certain rituals or prayers of that path. But even when it appears that a person, group, or religion is not on the path to God, this is only an appearance. We are all on the path, a path of remembrance, to God because God is All and we are One with Him. We cannot, not be on a path to Him. Now maybe someone or a group appears to be on a path that is going in the wrong direction, away from Him (going "backward" to go "forward"), but that is not for us to judge. We don't have a high enough perspective. He has All and is taking care of All, bringing everyone to Him in His timing and in the way best suited for them to drop false beliefs and return to Love. Because in the end all paths or branches merge into the trunk of Love, as He is Love.

Compassion is the entryway to God's Presence, because God is Love, and compassion is the foundation of Love. If we want to recognize ourselves as Love and feel God's Presence within us, we have to come from a place of compassion.
If we are not able to be compassionate on others, we are judging them from a place of duality and separation. If we are not able to be compassionate on others, we are not able to be compassionate on ourselves. Being compassionate on ourselves, being easy on ourselves, giving ourselves Grace --- and allowing God's Grace upon us --- is the key to emotional and spiritual healing. Ask why you are not able to be compassionate on yourself and help in clearing those beliefs you hold which prevent that.

God is Love --- a noun. But when God manifests in this world through each of us, Love becomes a verb.
We cannot be Love, do Love, know Love, unless we are emotionally open and authentic. Feeling and expressing our emotions are the way to come back to a remembrance of God within us. If we are shut down, God's Presence is covered. We must acknowledge and sometimes express our sadness, our joy, our anger, our fears, our vulnerabilities, etc. We must allow ourselves to be vulnerable, even if this means we can be hurt. You can only experience joy to the extent you are willing to feel sadness. We cannot allow society's norms --- that a woman can't express anger or a man can't cry --- to stop us from being who we are and who we need to be. We must be brave and willing to say what is on our heart. Being emotionally open with others leads to deep relationships with God shining through in full force.

Because you have free Will, you are your own redeemer or crucifier. His Love redeems us, but many choose to act as their own crucifier.
All of these thoughts and beliefs which you use to self judge and crucify yourself are not real. Only your relationship with Him and His Love is Real. If you release all self judgment, He will be there because He was never not there. Your beliefs covered up recognition of His Presence.

What is the difference between a victim and a warrior? There are only two ways of operating in the world and reacting to the experiences and circumstances that life brings to you.
A victim believes they are always entitled to something. They believe that they are separate from everything and what happens to them is random and they can do nothing about it. They act "put out" and complain that this person, group, organization, or government is doing something to them which is the cause of their misery. They want people to know they have been victimized to elicit pity. This is how they form their identity. Many also give their power away, believing that someone or something outside of them should and will always take care of them, never lie to them, etc. By putting responsibility fully outside of themselves, they never have to take it.
A warrior takes full responsibility for their life. Warriors realize that they are part of a whole and that their life circumstances are created by a combination of what they choose and also the choices of others which they have no control over. Even though they are affected by the things outside their control, they recognize they do have a choice in how they react to what happens to them. This recognition is where true power lies. They make the best of "bad" situations, not blaming others or groups but determining the best course of action to deal with the experience they are in. They don't try to elicit pity for their situation, but rather these are the people who are still spreading joy and love in the midst of dire circumstances. They love life and others because they know that everything is One.
