Choose Love
Happiness exists always. It is your natural state. Anything else you feel is an interruption, a distraction, interference, static on the line. Let it sink in once and for all that you are meant for happiness.

I invite you to step into a circle of prayer for folks affected by the recent magnitude 8.9 earthquake in Japan and for all that are being affected by the resulting tsunami. Last I read, 50 countries were under a tsunami alert.
Tension comes from a pull between what you know can be and that which does not seem to be. It is like you are the rope being pulled in a tug of war, and so sometimes you feel fraught. The threads of you seem to fray. Being pulled in two directions at once, you have choices to make.
Today is a day to touch the heart of the universe, to touch the hem of God, to feel and be the great connection that we are, to be one with all of the love and joy that is.
You affect the weather, and the weather affects you. Rain is good, and sun is good. Heat is good, and cold is good. You may prefer one or the other, yet you know better than to rail against the weather too much. You live with it. You take it as a matter of course.
Fear is the principal force that divides our hearts. It will continue to do so unless we increase the muscle of our attention and faith that lets us remain present for more and more of reality. When we consciously meet our fear, our faith grows. In the deepest solitude of ourselves, when fear has brought us to our knees and there is nothing left to do but surrender to it, we discover what has all along been supporting us.
This subject of death and dying is one of the most misunderstood areas of humankind. It is the subject that strikes fear in all of my children. Once, you view this subject from God’s point of reference, or viewpoint, it will help you see things differently and to help you heal from your separations.
How can I love unconditionally and unlimitedly?
The first step in being fully loving is that you must fully love your Self. And this you cannot do so long as you believe that you were born in sin, and are basically evil.
If you believe that humans are by nature non-trustworthy and evil, you will create a society that supports that view, then enact laws, approve rules, adopt regulations, and impose restraints that are justified by it.
Don’t spend major time with minor people.
If there are people in your life
that continually disappoint you,
break promises, and stomp on your dreams,
too judgmental, have different values and
don’t have your back during difficult times…
that is not a friend.
I will sing popular songs to you this morning. “Nothing but blue skies from now on!” Or I may just hum the same song over and over again. I may keep the same song, and you will never be able to get its echo out of your mind. It will keep repeating itself. “Nothing but blue skies from now on.”
