You may be at My feet as you ask:
“God, please let my family win the lottery, or, in some way, God, get Good Fortune to come forward so that we may be next in line for wealth. Now, as I ask You this, it doesn’t feel right to me ask You this, for this could be my ego asking. It’s not that I have not worked very hard, God, yet something doesn’t feel really right for me to ask You this.
“So, I say it differently now. Dear God, may my family and I fulfill whatever is ours to fulfill? Have we somehow blocked our very own desires? Has something within me squelched my family’s very desires? If we have a blockage from some fear or threat within us, then, something within also has to unblock what holds us back from fulfilling our nethermost desires. God, please help us to recognize great sustaining happiness. Let us be grateful for all sweet breezes that blow.”
Yes, I answer you, why wouldn’t I? It would be My pleasure. Some people have to wait awhile for their will to blossom or their True Will to come from another direction. Perhaps you have to wait. This is something that comes from a reason of your own. This isn’t something that I ordain. This is something that you enjoin.
Here is how I suggest you get up every morning:
Get up with the idea in your mind that many blessings are on their way to you.
Go to sleep every night with the same sort of idea in your mind. Think:
"What I desire belongs to me. Let my blessed thoughts light all blessings. I have these thoughts in my own mind as joy-fulfilling thoughts. Let it be that my thoughts are like taking out a cloth to polish silver with. I pull out these powerful thoughts of my desires fulfilled and shared.
”I give my desires a light polish when I awake and again when I go to sleep. Just a nice easy polish. No big deal. My desires will find me. Calmness will light my thoughts that attract and proclaim my heart’s desires. I am not anxious. I am well-aware. My desires are wending their way to me."
You understand that the desires you express are asking to be updated. Your desires want to come forth on their own without hassle. Easy does it. You are not greedy nor are you needy. You do not have to have. You want to meet your desires and accept them just the way you accept an apple when someone offers an apple to you. If apples are the genies of your thoughts, then apples gravitate toward you and want to hop into your arms.
I offer Myself to you in the same way. I am eager to support you. Supporting you is supporting Myself. I don't know the difference. I really don’t stand on ceremony. I don’t see any difference between serving you or serving Myself. When I look hard, I only see a difference in your view of Me and Life and all its ramifications while I see you as the lovelight that issues from your eyes. Left to My own devices, this is what I see. I Who know everything find it very hard to understand why you wouldn’t want to embrace Me as your Very Self.
I repeat and repeat that We are One. You look at Me lovingly, yet you look at Me as if I were too innocent for this world. For Heaven’s sakes, I created the world, and I created you for My very Own Joy. Give Me My Joy. Give it to Me as eagerly as I stand before you right now. Don’t be coy with Me. I offer Myself to you. Yes, yes, receive your Self from Me right now.
Of course, I will offer Myself to you without reservation. As strange as it may seem, you hold back. Can you imagine the stage that is set before you! Let Me state this bluntly:
When God invites you to come closer, say, “Yes, God.” Stay with Me with confidence, or stay with Me with perplexity, it doesn’t matter. The important thing is that you stay with Me. At the very least move closer to Me.
Truly, what does it matter if I move more closely to you, or you move more closely to Me? This is what I’m telling you. Keep moving closer to Me and avail yourself of your heritage. Why on Earth would you act like a fatherless child when I am right here with My love? My love has always been meant for you. Always, there is a warm spot in My heart for you.
When I offer you a banquet, don’t wait until every last man on Earth has arrived. Come, sit down, and supper will be served. Many will come anon or, perhaps, you will come tomorrow and bring a brother with you.
