A Song of Silence

God said:

Today I would like to say to you that all is well, even though you are tired of hearing that while you see otherwise. Isn't it bizarre that you would be tired of hearing that all is well? It must be that you don't believe it. If you believed it, you wouldn't find it tiresome. You would find it welcome. You would not be able to hear it said enough: All is well. All is well.

I am not going to change My tune, so you are left with the choice of seeing in a more enlightened way. Of course, you think that you can't change your perception, that something outside you has to change it. But it is you, beloveds, who change your perception. It is you who sees the light. No matter how many people may see the light, no one can see it for you. You have to do the seeing yourself. What you see is up to you. Even blindfolded, what you see is up to you.

You have seen those pictures which at first seem one way and later another. When you keep looking, you see another picture that you did not see at first. The actual picture did not change. Your vision of it changed. If you can see a second picture which at first was not obvious, do you not think you can perceive life differently from the way you do now?

Do you not want to change your picture? Or would you rather hold on to it? Truly, beloveds, if you could let go of the past, you would see a different picture.

Your vision has been programmed in certain ways, and often, too often, you see as you have been instructed to see. You have wanted to be one with the world. You wanted the world to approve of you and accept you, so you tried to be like the world and accept its interpretations. Beloveds, it would be very hard for you to be at oneness with the world you see and One with Truth at the same time. It would be easy, of course, with the world as I created it, but not so easy when you perceive through the eyes of the world that you have adopted.

The world is not enough for you. It narrows your vision whereas I expand it.

It is not that you have to choose the world or choose Me. It is just that the world you have chosen may belie itself, and yet you have chosen to follow it and all its idiosyncrasies. Perhaps you thought you had to. Perhaps you thought you had no choice. Perhaps you found yourself in a foreign country, and you thought it wise to adopt their ways. Without thinking, you adopted their ways. You thought it was self-preservation.

But right now, if you were presented with a vote, would you vote for the mistaken world or would you vote for Me? If you had to ante up, where would you place your bet? You may think I don't listen to you, but do you really think the world listens to you, or even bends its head down to hear you?

No, you hear the loudness of the world and you listen to it. You hear the noise of the world more clearly than you hear My silence. The noise of the world is not yours, but you have grabbed it anyway. Even so, My Song of Silence is always present for you to hear.

"You have wanted to be one with the world. You wanted the world to approve of you and accept you, so you tried to be like the world and accept its interpretations." Yes, BEFORE, that is -- before I tuned it out. Thankyou, God. I vote for you. *grin*
