Be Like the Ocean

God said:

Much of the time you are using a microscope in your view of life on Earth. Incorporate a telescope into your vision. Add to your view. Take a look at the big picture. Look at a wide swath of life. You will gain greater insight. You will not be so caught up with one portion of life. You will gain greater insight and a greater outlook and vision.

It is not the end of the world when your child flunks a test. Surely, you must know that. Yet, in your household, what you make of a flunked test may be seriously disproportional. You may make way too much of it. It’s unwise to make too much of anything.

This is what most of My children on Earth are doing all the time. Oh, that scratch on your new car. That car, no matter how beautiful and new as it is now, is going to wind up in a junk yard. How world-shaking is that scratch now really? If you want to be upset by something, there are bigger fish to fry.

Please understand. When I say, even when you are on the verge of your body’s dying, I mean to put it all in place for you. It’s not really the big deal it so overwhelmingly seems to be. I am not diminishing your feelings. Death simply isn’t the tragedy everyone thinks it is. Nothing tragic has happened. That something is tragic is your idea. That you don’t want this to happen, I am well aware.

However, dying is an everyday occurrence. No one avoids it. There is no other option. Of course, I am restating that there is no death except of the body. You are immortal. Immortality is yours, but not your body’s. Most of the time, you equate yourself with your body.

It cannot even be said that dreams die. How do you know? Because a dream hasn’t come true yet, or in this lifetime, doesn’t mean it’s all over and will never come true. How would you know that dreams aren’t coming true all the time?

The disappearance of the body that heretofore has been carrying you around is horrendous to you. Sometimes even worse, is the tagged death of a loved one. Suffering seems to be long-lived.

I say it again and again. Love stays. Love isn’t going anywhere. The worst thing that can happen to you is that you wind up in Heaven with Me. What makes it tragic, beloveds, is your attachment. Attachment is the big addiction. It is the greatest cause of unhappiness. It may be the only cause. There is a widespread epidemic of attachment. Remind yourself that love does not attach. Love does not possess in the first place. Everything here on Earth is on loan.

Be like the Ocean. In Reality, you are indeed like the Ocean. The tide comes in, and the tide goes out. The Ocean doesn’t mind. Waves come in, and waves go out. The Ocean doesn’t cry about it. The Ocean is Ocean regardless. The Ocean doesn’t believe that its waves must stay in one place. The waves go out and play. The waves rise, and the waves recede. The Ocean doesn’t see anything the matter with that.

Therefore, the Ocean doesn’t demand from life and try to change it. The Ocean lets life be. The Ocean loves to feel the warmth of the Sun and the cool of the Moon. The Ocean doesn’t struggle. In your terms, the Ocean doesn’t fight back. The Ocean doesn’t see anything to fight back about. Even when the wind makes the Ocean’s waves tumultuous, the Ocean isn’t perturbed. The Ocean stays innocent. The Ocean knows the tumult will cease, and, regardless, the Ocean is the Ocean the same as ever.

Be like the Ocean, for, in Truth, you are That.
