You roam in life. It is like you flick the remote control. You glance at this, and you glance at that. At some point, you make a choice, at least for a while.
Roaming isn’t quite the same as wandering. In roaming, you may not know what you are going to alight on, nor when, yet your roaming is purposeful. You are looking for something. In wandering, you are more aimless, less purposeful, more vague, less clear. You both roam and wander, beloveds. It is all right. You will find your way, or your way will find you.
All is well. You are absolved from being an expert in life. It is okay not to know much. You certainly don’t have to know everything. Let’s face it, in terms of the surface of life, you know very little. In one sense, you know nothing at all.
You stand naked in life. All the accoutrements are like stage sets. They look good, but they don’t really support you. You may live in a gorgeous mansion, or you may live in a hut. Either way, you live in a world made of more than the setting you live in and more than all the other externals that coddle you into believing you are invulnerable to life. No matter your power in the eyes of the world, no matter your wealth, no matter anything, you are vulnerable to the permutations of life.
When you come down to it, there is you and life, and there is I, always present. You can count on Me. You cannot count on Me to do your bidding a certain way, yet you can count on My Presence and My evershining love. And one day you come upon the realization that you are invulnerable, always were, not because of circumstances, but because of Our partnership. You are strong in Me, beloveds. All the outside bulwarks come and go. You and I are forever. Expand your thinking. Rely on what is reliable. Know from where your strength comes. Know what strength is, and come from it.
Your treasure chest is not outside you. Lay up treasures within. Lay up your awareness of the treasures within. Sooner or later you learn that it is not the ground under your feet that supports you. It is rather My unseen Will and Our love. Our love is stronger than steel. There is no metal on Earth that comes close to the strength of that mighty connection of Ours. A golden filament binds us, doesn’t constrict nor restrict, and yet we are bonded in this love that outdoes everything, surmounts everything, that comes to realize there is nothing to surmount, for love holds the golden cup of life, and love raises its award high. Love is inseparable from Heaven, and love is inseparable from you, as I am inseparable from you. Nothing divides us. Nothing. Not all the nonsense in the world changes Our divinity. Nothing touches it.
I am speaking of Immortality, beloveds. Only your body is mortal. You are attached to your body. Mortality, as beautiful as it is, as meaningful as it is, doesn’t light a candle to Our Immortal Love.
You may think that Our love is a card game played in a back room, and yet it is Our love that is in the forefront of you. It is your shield. It is your sword. Our love penetrates everything. My Will be done, and My Will is love, and love accomplishes. The mightiest army does not. Nothing beats love. So love, beloveds, love.
