Power of Attention
Tina to God, Diane, and Heavenletters:
In regard to Diane's question July 11, I have been wrestling with the idea of suffering all of my conscious, spiritual life. God's answer is so complete in dissolving any resistance to the truth. I definitely think this Heavenletter should go in the "best of" book.
I usually don't print out HEAVENletters for folks who don't have email. But this one was so thorough in addressing such a universally relevant question that I did.
Thank You, God, and Diane, and Gloria for bringing this wonderful news out in the open for all of us to take to heart. This is truly Good News at its best. I wish as many people looked forward to HEAVEN as their source of daily news as look to TV and newspapers. I have never understood why anyone chooses to make a daily habit of seeking out bad news from all over the world. I am so glad to have the HEAVEN habit instead.
Love and Light.
God to Tina:
People choose world news precisely because suffering seems important. Bad news seems momentous. Sometimes it is, indeed, earthshaking. But know this, dear Tina, even bad news reaches hearts and rallies them together. But you are just right. More attention on good news would bring more good news. More attention on Me would reveal more of Me and My blessings. More Heaven habit.
Gloria:
Dear God, tonight I reread some Godwriting, and it is as if I saw it for the first time, and I am overwhelmed by its beauty. I am tremendously grateful that Your words come out from my fingers somehow. I am in awe of Your beauty of thought and love, and I do not know how I came to be so favored as to have this blessing of You and have You miraculously come through me. I know it is a widgeon of you expressed here. When I reread today about the ripples of Our love exhilarating the universe, it is like I believed in You for the first time. Maybe, until today when I reread your magnificent words, I wasn't sure, maybe I thought it was playacting. Today I know it is not. Today I feel like a river through which You run.
I feel like a farm girl who found out she was a princess.
God:
You are a princess who thought she was a farm girl.
You were mistaken.
Now you are waking up.
This is the story of Sleeping Beauty.
Love from one Who was awake awakened her.
After a long sleep, love from one Who was awake awakened her.
Now you know that there are many dimensions of a human being. There is the ordinary part of you who rushes to do this and that and worries about hurt feelings and other small things. And then there is the you who glimpses something more, who has a suspicion of greatness yet to come around the corner. And then there is the you who just now experienced My power and glory as it reverberated through My eyes seeing you as your eyes see Me. What hath God wrought, you wonder. And now you know, now you really know, that God hath wrought you.
And I look at the splendor I have made, My wondrous children, and I say to Myself, What have I wrought? Look at the vastness of My soul spread all over the world in unsuspecting and unexpected places. Not unexpected by Me — I put you there — but unsuspected by you. What else could you be but surprised? Made by God. My children made by God in the universe of Heaven, and they trip over their own wondrousness.
Look within, look within, and see Me.
Gloria:
Dear God, how does this writing come? I mean, how does it really?
God:
It comes because I speak it and I ask you to write it down for Me. That is how it comes. A meeting of ear and heart pick up My love expressed as thought in human words. It is My love you hear, and it is My love you write.
The appreciation you are feeling is My appreciation of you.
Where does the arrow point?
No matter what direction it faces it goes around to encircle everything. The arrow points to Me, and it goes to you. It points to you, and it goes to Me. In truth there is only one direction, and that is to Me. And I am all directions, and no direction. I am where you are and where you are not, except, like Me, you are not of time and space, for, of course, there is none. When you remove time and space, you have the eternity of Me and the eternity of you.
How immaterial is the material. You think a computer and internet are so amazing. They are small potatoes next to Me, and next to Me is you and you and you, all My children. We communicate without equipment. We communicate Ourselves. We are like a kiss of two eager people. Who kisses whom? Not one more than the other. It is one kiss. Two people, but one kiss. That is how Our Oneness is. You and I as One Kiss.
How easy it is when there are no blocks. All the blocks are imaginary, but believed in. For what can possibly block Me? What can keep Me out? What can keep Me away? What can isolate Me? Nothing that I know of, and I know of everything.
Gloria:
So how do I love You, God? How do I express it?
God:
By feeling My love; that is how you express yours.
I am just beneath your eyelids.
I am in the moment before speech.
I am in your fingers as you type.
I am in all the limits and unlimited.
I am beyond beyond.
I am so beyond that I am within you.
Gloria:
This is after midnight. I usually go to bed much earlier. But it was like You moved me to the computer to catch Your words.
God:
You moved Me to invite you to the computer. Your appreciation of My joy brought Us here together to sing Our song of love. That is what life is, Gloria. It is a song of love. Sing loudly. Proclaim Our love in all you do. Proclaim Our love, yours and Mine. You call Me to you, and you are calling Me to Me.
This is the Relationship. This is the only one there is. Yours and Mine. You and I. All the rest are variations on a theme.
Now you may go to bed. Take comfort in My presence because I follow you as you follow Me. Neither of Us is first, and neither is last. It must be We walk together, arm and arm, down a winding road that leads us right back to where We started. Hallowed be to the winding road and all upon it and the song We sing on our way. Glory be to God in the highest.
