Set Your Spirit Free

Dear Self,

Well, another year is coming to a close. Many blessings and much learning of Life. It would seem the circle of Life is never ending. But of course, on an individual level, you have to wonder what comes after this life clothed in human flesh on this world. The soul will endure and live on with our Father in Paradise, and then perhaps, another destination on a different world. Or, if we don't get it right this time around on this world, perhaps back here. Will we remember how many times we have been here....will we evolve to a higher level. Will we remember the lessons we learned here before. Is this what deja vu is all about. I don't even pretend to know these things, but I do know if we establish a personal relationship with our Father, God, Creator, the soul will endure and live on as He chooses. I know this for a fact. Truth. So maybe it does matter what we say and what we do and how we live and how we treat each other.

I have had many trials and tribulations in this life. But I have also had so many blessings, for which I am eternally grateful. Blessings usually involving my friends and many kind strangers who became my friends. I have heard it said many times that people appear in our lives for a reason, and I have come to believe this is Truth also, for the people who have come into my life always have something to either teach me or learn from me. Friends may come and friends may go, but some have had a very significant impact on me and on my life.

I do know that life is precious, and so very fragile. Life as we know it on this world. We should enjoy each and every minute of each and every hour of each and every day, as we may not come this way again. We should never look down and never look back. We should never worry about the future, as our Father knows our future and His Love is pure and His Wisdom is Divine. Trust in Him and He shall carry you through the days to come in your life and after your human flesh has been shed. We are not human beings with a spirit. We are spiritual beings clothed in human flesh.

This world is in turmoil now, but this world has been embroiled in terrible turmoil and strife before. Violence and blood on many hands. Hatred and prejudice born of ignorance. And then, calm and warm, sunny days for a period of time, until the next time of violence and blood. The cycle of Life. If you want to make God laugh, just tell Him of your plans for your future.

Set your spirit free. Open your heart and Love. Love this world called Earth. Love each other. Find something in each and every other soul you meet to Love and hang onto that. Don't let go when you find a kindred spirit, a soul that is loving and strong. A soul you learn from, teach and come to Love. You will know when you have met a soul like this. You will be drawn irresistibly to a soul like this. And if your spirit is free, you want to spend all your days with a soul like this. Do it. Do it for yourself. Do it for the one who has the loving and strong soul. Don't miss taking a chance for the most beautiful experience on any world. This much I know at this point in my life.

For The Love of God

"For the Love of God, what is wrong with this world? For the Love of God, what is wrong with those people? For the Love of God, why did you say that? For the Love of God, have you lost your mind? For the Love of God, why did you do that?" You get the idea. Just turn on the news and watch for a few minutes. You will see something that begs one of those questions to be answered, but where do you go for answers? Sometimes it is, "For God's sake, stop that. For God's sake, do not say that again. For God's sake, don't even go there. For God's sake, would you look at that? For God's sake, this world is crazy." And now, on the internet, "OMG. Oh My God." We are all asking God, but are we asking the right way? Are we? Think about it.

Let me propose something new. We are on the verge of something different, something new, something. I don't know if it is good or bad. What I do know is, it will be what we ask for on this world. We are children of God. God listens to His children. We need to be careful with our words. Our words are powerful. What we pray for, we will receive in our lives. What we say becomes our reality. And I firmly believe in Divine Justice. I also believe in, what you sow, you reap.

So instead of saying those words above, or anything you catch yourself thinking might be negative, or worse, dangerous, stop and think about what and how you speak and pray. How about this: I pray this world will be filled with Peace, for the Love of God. I pray all my Brothers and Sisters around the world will reach out to each other equally, for the Love of God. I pray the anger and division in this world will end, for the Love of God. I pray for understanding, for the Love of God. I forgive those who do not understand what they say or do, for the Love of God. I pray that the jobless will find meaningful work to provide for their families, for the Love of God. I pray that the homeless will find shelter, for the Love of God. I pray we end the division in this world, for God's sake and our own well being. I pray we reach a point of at least understanding each other, for God's sake. I pray we stop saying "OMG", and instead say a prayer to God.

And do not forget, no one comes to the Father, but through the Son. In your life, strive to live as Jesus lived. Try to walk in Peace and Love as Jesus did, and Love Jesus. For the Love of God.

What will you say or do today and going forward "For The Love of God"?
