inner peace
Behold Peace
It can be said that nature is the healer. It is indeed natural to heal. It is indeed natural to have no need to heal. We can say that you have a self-cleaning physiology. As you live and move in the world, nature does not have to allow occlusions to the smooth flow of health.
One way to look at it is that happiness is health. It is not an absolute that health is a by-product of happiness, yet it is a good way to look at it, for it makes your securing happiness incumbent upon you.
Love and Peace Are Oneness
Aspire to personal and world peace in your lifespan on Earth. When you are in the midst of the flow of love, you will have enlivened peace. You will have fullness of peace. Put off nothing until later. Where did you get the idea that peace is something to wait for? Invite it to you now.
A Coconut Fell
Must you go from one extreme to another? Must you go from high excitement to low despair? Must you? It is like you let yourself be whipped from side to side by the winds of change. But you are not a ball to be batted back and forth. You are a Child of God, and I am your ballast.
You are not tossed from hand to hand. Why then are you so perturbed and disturbed by what someone says or what occurs? Why must every gust of wind or wave of the ocean shake you so? They must not. You are not so vulnerable as you make out.
In the Midst of Chaos
Peace is already yours. In the midst of chaos, peace is still yours. It belongs to you.
If there were no need for argument, peace would reign in its full splendor. Argument drowns out the silence of peace.
Why is there need for argument? There is even argument made in My Name! I have no sides. There are no sides of Me to take. There are no two ways about Me.
Beloved of God
There is no opposite to peace, as there is no opposite to love. No competition exists, and yet peace and love have not always been your living experience.
Peace means certainty. It means you know that everything is taken care of. In truth, there is not a toothpick in the universe that is not accounted for.
You are My beloved. Beloved of God, what is there for you to be uncertain about? But sometimes you choose uncertainty over peace. You think being stirred to distraction is life at its fullest. You have perhaps forgotten that peace is life at its fullest.
Be the First to Step Forward
Good morning, My beloved children, who struggle and twist and turn in life because you believe you have to in order to exist. And so you enter the fray. That is your error, that you believe it is necessary to fight life. Therefore you parry and thrust for all you are worth, and you wear yourself out with fighting ghosts when you could befriend them.
A Beautiful Ocean
Do not covet is fine to say. Certainly, it is good advice. But it misses the issue. Only from sense of lack does covetousness arise.
When sense of lack is replaced with awareness of plenty, covetousness is replaced with generosity. Needing and giving are but two sides of the same coin. You may need to be instructed in awareness of the wealth that is yours.
Who would grab when he sees there is enough to go around? When he sees abundance spilling over, what would he feel denied about? What would he possibly want to draw to himself and not to another?
Peace
Peace is not something you find. It is something you carry with you. It is a by-product of love. Peace is the sweet scent that a rose gives off.
Be a peace-giver. Wherever you walk, give peace.
Wherever you leave, leave peace in your wake. Carry an aura of peace.
Peace is not boring.
Do not say: "Peace be with you." Say: "Peace is with you."
What Can Disconcert You?
You equate coming to peace in life with coming to peace with loss and death, the main issues you consider important.
What coming to peace with life really means is coming to terms with the unholy concept that life will not always go according to your will. When you come to terms with that and the little impish things in life, you will be at peace. The larger matters will then take care of themselves.
Our Journey Is Swift
You make excuses to come to Me. No excuses are needed. You make no excuses for breathing air or drinking water. You do not justify your need for them. Your need is a given. It is natural to breathe and to drink. It is also natural to come to Me, to catch up to where you already are. Get over here, and wait not for a reason. Tumble headlong to Me. Don't putter. Don't study the situation. Just come.
