If you truly want peace, you must disengage yourself from all conflict. You can't want someone to change or do something different. You have to want the peace and you have to disengage. Then there will be peace in every situation you encounter.

Can you still feel God's Presence even when you are in a down or hard period? Can you still feel the unity? Even though you feel disconnected, the unity is still there. This is the paradox. Even in the midst of the worst junk, you are still one with God.

Wisdom comes in, not through the learning of the world, but by opening our heart to Him. Great wisdom knows that we cannot judge others.

Fear thoughts always revolve around anger, judgment, bitterness, frustration, resentment, self pity, and victimization. Love thoughts are gratitude, compassion, acceptance, humor, joy, respect, and peacefulness.

Your learning, your beliefs, has come from your parents, your teachers, religion, and society, all sources except you. What if you had not been taught anything? What if you were just open to learning through experience, from you experiencing your Self?

Western society and much of the world is unnaturally skewed toward the masculine. This is why someone with power, money, and a strong logical mind is put on a pedestal and viewed as the goal everyone should attain, and this is also why God is viewed as a male deity who is judgmental and punishing. But the Divine encompasses a perfect mix of the masculine and feminine. We have undervalued and denigrated the feminine aspects --- compassion, gentleness, non judgment, tolerance, patience, intuition, joy, and Love. And we have misinterpreted the masculine aspects such as power. Power means to know the Unity of all things and to stand tall in what you are. It is not to be used to take advantage of or crucify an individual or group. Only when we acknowledge the importance of a balance between the masculine and feminine can we heal ourselves and the world.

What you call miracles are acts which run counter to the physics of the world as the world sees it. But look at the false premise you are starting with --- this world is real and physical laws are immutable. In Heaven, in the consciousness of the Kingdom which Jesus operated within, you can create whatever acts within the dream you want.

The paradox is that the shadow qualities you want to hide and get rid of must first be embraced as a part of you, a part of your wholeness, before they can be transformed. You must accept and recognize these parts and emotions before you can recognize that they never really existed. You have always been One.

Notice the next time you get angry. Do you become angry because it arises naturally or because you have a thought about a situation or person that makes you angry. The latter is not real. Thoughts cannot lead to true emotions. If a thought leads to anger, you might call this ego anger, because it is your ego and its strategies, its looking for grievances, that create this "anger" in you. You then BELIEVE you are angry, but you are really not. Watch this dynamic happening inside of you. Witness how and when your emotions are preceded and created by a thought.

If you look to the body for pleasure, it will also give you pain. Believing you are just a body invites illness, decay, and eventually death, because the ego assigns sins to the body.

The great thing about Grace is that it is available for us all of the time. We only need to acknowledge this fact to be able to utilize Grace in the very highest fashion for ourselves, for others, and for the world. Once we acknowledge Grace is there, the streams of Grace wash over us and heal us in so many ways.

When you think of love, you think of a romantic love or the love given by parents. Human or ego based love is conditional, relying on expectations and appearances. But anything variable like this is not Love. Divine Love is Truth, which means that there are no exceptions.

Technology, as with everything in the world, can be used to move us closer or farther away in our awareness of our Oneness with God. Technology can be used to create community that was not previously there, "when two are gathered in my name." But technology has become a god for many. It is used as a diversion to not be present in human to human relationships, to not be still ("be still and know that I am God"), etc. When you are bored or have free time, do you get on your phone or the internet to busy yourself? What if you spent that time connecting with God?

That which you fear and give power to --- your hatred, fear, anger, shame, and guilt --- becomes stronger simply by your belief in them. A belief can't be released until it is recognized.

If you are having a hard time praying, say a prayer of gratitude. If it is hard, start small. Say a prayer of gratitude that you are alive and breathing. So many people have fallen into a rut of victimization and believing that someone or something or even God is out to get them. Gratitude will take this away. We can live on a diet of God attributes such as gratitude, joy, compassion, love, and peace, or we can live on a diet of ego attributes such as judgment, resentment, bitterness, non forgiveness, hatred, and condemnation. Just as you decide what to put in your mouth and that affects your physical body, you choose what mental and spiritual diet you want to live on, and this affects your whole being. Choose wisely.

Guilt is not of God and does not exist in the Kingdom, but in this reality it does serve to help us awaken to changes we need to make. When we feel guilty over something, we need to ask ourselves whether that guilt is justified, whether we have done something that has triggered that internal God compass. If so, we need to take action to rectify the situation --- this is how we grow and awaken. This could mean saying you are sorry or knowing that you need to do it different the next time. Also, no one can make you feel guilty. You control whether you feel guilty. If someone is triggering guilt in you, they are giving you a gift so that you can take a look at your actions, words, or thoughts and see if they are in alignment with God. It does not matter what they are blaming you for. It only matters that you recognize the guilt within you and then explore the source and beliefs behind that guilt. Maybe your child says you are not a good parent. If you see that you could be doing some things different, then do them different without condemning yourself. Self compassion is extremely important. But maybe you recognize that you don't need to change anything --- it is your beliefs which tell you that you are not a good parent and you just need to release what is false inside of you. Usually it is a mix of the two. Many people stay in long term guilt and never know it. They usually project the guilt on to others as blame and anger, never pulling the projection in and realizing that they are the source of the guilt. This is why the world appears as it does --- everyone blaming other people, groups, God, etc., instead of taking a look at themselves.

Attachment to form is a great impediment to remembrance on the spiritual journey. If something "works" for you, like meditation, a certain prayer or ritual, a walk in the woods --- continue to do it if it brings you to a greater state of awareness. Don't continue to do it solely because you have done it previously or someone, a spiritual teacher or otherwise, told you to do it.

What are you searching for? What are you using to avoid God? For if you are always on a search, you believe that you never have to be still. You believe that if you are still, God will catch up to you, and He will see your sins, punishing you. People use money, fame, good looks, athletics, education, politics, and many other "forms" as their search. They even use the "spiritual journey" as their search to avoid God. The spiritual journey is one of the most deceiving forms and one of the hardest for someone to see their true motives, because they have told themselves that they are really looking for God. In reality, searching for God through all kinds of "spiritual" forms is how they justify and avoid really finding Him.

You come back to God by turning inward, for He is within you. You are a reflection of Him, and as you turn inward, that reflection magnifies. Have you ever seen two mirrors that are across from each other in a bathroom? The reflection goes on ad infinitum. This is how the reflection, the communion, between you and God works. It is ever deepening, eternal, infinite.

If you want to change the world, change how you see the world, and this will make the change you want. It all originates from your mind as you project your belief system on to what you "see." Withdraw your beliefs from that projection, change what you "see," and you have created a miracle for your Self and for the world.

When we go walking through crowds at the mall or an airport, what do we see? What catches our attention is something that stands out in the way someone looks --- very tall, very short, very overweight, very good looking or ugly. Our attention is also drawn to someone doing a behavior that is generally very strange or not something that is done in public, like talking to oneself or picking your nose, etc. So what happens then --- we make a judgment about that person based on what? Based on what their body is doing, based on an appearance. Each of us is so accustomed to doing this that we think it is normal, but it is not. We are making a judgment about something that is not real, not the essence and true reality of who this person is, which is a part of God.

Our relationships are the manna through which we come to know God. They are the primary vehicle in this world through which we see past appearances to the God within --- as we see the God within the other person, we will see God within ourselves. Too many people flee once the first signs of conflict arise in a relationship, especially in marriage, but they will repeat failed relationships until they become aware of what God is trying to show them. We must stay present in the relationship, even if that means feeling hurt and grief and anger. It is through our staying present and processing our emotions that we grow, because God is Love, and we must be emotionally open to know Him and that Love, to know that we are Love. Even if your spouse or friend does not remain present and open when conflict arises, this does not hinder your ability to grow from that relationship. In fact, these are your opportunities to learn true forgiveness and to bless that person for what they are giving you in terms of helping you to see who you truly are.
