Choice vs. Sacrifice

God said:

It is time for you to know in the depths of your heart how much you mean to Me. You mean everything to Me. You are My very life walking on Earth. You are the essence of Me distributed to the world so that I may be known. It doesn't matter by what Name I am known. That matters not at all. What matters is that love is known, and I am that Love. My love in you grows in your awareness in increments. The more love you perceive, the more love you give. We don't concern Ourselves with love that you receive, because that will naturally happen without your looking for it. Yours is only to give love and give it again and give more, and this is all at no cost to you, you understand.

If you feel diminished by giving love, something is off. When you feel nourished by giving love, then you are on.

Be sure that your giving love is not sacrifice. Sacrifice comes at a great cost, and you will then look for a return. Sacrifice, in its determined way, asks for more than it gives. Sacrifice may be a way to point to yourself and go up in your own estimation, yet sacrifice does not serve you or another.

There are little compromises. You might give up seeing the movie you want for the sake of another, and then it is a choice, not a sacrifice. Sometimes you just can't see two movies the same weekend, so you choose one. Beware of sacrifice, however, beloveds, because you will carry the burden of having to have your sacrifice acknowledged, and the one you sacrificed for will carry the burden of being in your thrall.

There is no need to sacrifice anyway. Giving is another story. There is great need to give, and there is great merit in receiving. If no one could receive, giving would be curtailed. It is also divine to receive, so a good receiver be. Do not protest someone's giving to you. Give in good grace, and accept in good grace.

Sometimes My children talk about giving and don't do it. It gets to be too much trouble. Perhaps you want to see yourself as a giver and yet not really want to give. Make sure that your words and actions line up, for all kinds of truth are needed in the world. Let every word of yours be true, or don't say it. Beloveds, don't say: "I will do anything for you," when you don't mean that. Perhaps you mean to say that you will do anything for someone so long as it is convenient for you to do so. Perhaps you are really saying that you would like to be that kind of person and so you say things and bluff the other person and likely yourself.

You will grow to a state of giving, beloveds, and it will be natural and easy for you.

Part of giving is knowing your abundance. Part of giving is knowing you have plenty to give. Part of giving is not being attached to what you give. What is hard about giving when you are not attached to ownership, not even ownership of good will and your time?

Even your good deeds, beloveds, you do not own, you understand. You are in service to Me, and so your good service is really Mine. Let Me take ownership of your giving. See then how easy it is to give without a thought about it. It will be the most natural thing in the world to give, as natural for you as it is for Me. Give yourself, beloveds. It is My Self you give.

Giving without sacrifice,

Giving without sacrifice, simply by the awareness of our plenty. We are growing to that state and it will be so natural.

Choice vs Sacrifice

Oh, dear God, this idea is what everyone of us wants to feel. Habits of feeling that
there is NOT endless abundance is not an easy one to release. YOU ARE MY HEART
AND SO THERE IS NEVER A FEAR OF GIVING, IF THAT COULD BE INGRAINED
IN EVERY FIBER OF MY BEING! NOT BEING ATTACHED TO WHAT I GIVE.

IT'S EASY TO DO GOOD DEEDS BECAUSE THEY SEEM SO NATURAL AND
ENDLESS IN SUPPLY.

I AM TODAY DETERMINED TO GIVE WITHOUT A THOUGHT ABOUT IT. IT IS
THE MOST NATURAL THING IN THE WORLD! I AM GIVING YOUR NATURAL ABUNDANCE OF EVERYTHING.

THIS VEIL OF OBLIVION IS NOT EASY TO GET THROUGH. BUT WE DO STOP
OFTEN AND REALIZE YOUR LOVE IS THE SOURCE OF ALL THAT WE ARE.
ALL BROTHERS WHO ARE FEARFUL HAVE FORGOTTEN YOU ARE THERE IN PEACE..
I'M ADMITTING HERE THAT THERE ARE STILL MOMENTS WHEN THE VEIL
OF OBLIVION STILL WEIGHS HEAVY OVER ME.

BUT I ADORE READING YOUR THOUGHTS OF LOVE!!! YOU WHO ARE MY OWN
HEART LIGHT UP MY WHOLE BEING IN THIS MOMENT OF READING YOUR INCREDIBLE HEAVENLETTERS.

Freedom and service

A truly moving and inspiring Heavenletter. I feel like I should apologize for daring to break the mood of love and appreciation that it creates, but I am going to selfishly bring up a personal concern about a phrase that appears in a lot of letters.

God says: “You are in service to me.” This phrase sounds comforting and full of promise, but also carries a twinge of uncertainty every time I read it. The uncertainty seems attached to visions of The Inquisition and modern terrorists killing in God’s name. It also can have a feeling of a loss of freedom and being bound in servitude.

Is this just me? Do I have some sort of blindness about this issue? This seems like one of those dilemmas that are hard to understand and we just have to take on faith, but I never quite know for sure. When I reason through it, I have come to accept that an awareness of God’s Will lies at the deepest level in our heart. The key may be our Oneness with Him. Could it be that learning to serve him is what we are looking for in all our searching, but we view it only very dimly and call it by other names?

Perhaps what it comes down to is that, while free will is one of God’s greatest gifts, we are destined to learn that our most fulfilling choice is always the most giving and most loving.

I’d love to hear what others think about this……..Chuck

When I reason through it, I

When I reason through it, I have come to accept that an awareness of God’s Will lies at the deepest level in our heart. The key may be our Oneness with Him.

Dear Chuck, I think this is an important part of the answer – only perhaps too reasonable for a complete and fulfilling answer.

God says in many different ways: "Your serving Me is in accepting My love and passing it on."

I think that all other forms of "serving", including the clearly misguided ones you mentioned but also subtler varieties, are contrived and therefore, in the final analysis, self-serving. If it has a big and blinking neon sign saying, "This is service to God", it probably isn't.

Is there something wrong

Is there something wrong with uncertainty?!!!

It's so easy!

Alohalight you take my breath away every day but some days I have to work like the dickens to get it back, like today!

George breathing easier

Chuck, Jochen and darling Gloria

Resting under God's blankie there's so much peace that you have to get up and go to the freezer to find uncertainty.

Hello Friends,

God said give good will
Then see how easy it is
To give without thought

God said in service
You are My life on the Earth
In all that you do

God said Beloveds
You are the essence of Me
In you I Am known

God said give yourself
For it is My Self you give
At no cost to you

Love, Light and Aloha!

Abunance growing active!

Meaning for our lives is hard to come by until we read: "You mean everything to Me. You are My very life walking on Earth. You are the essence of Me distributed to the world so that I may be known."

We are taught to "give of ourselves." In our giving we learn to fore-give which adds to the meaning we are growing into. For this rich wisdom we can thank Heaven Letters and its precious writer. Thanks

George loving the new state he lives in
