Beloveds, you often think that life is supposed to go along according to your will. But it is My Will that be done, not yours. And yet you may have misunderstood My Will. You are not singled out. I do not plot. I play the orchestra. Give Me different notes if you do not like what I play. Your will and My Will are One.
All of your prayers are welcome, but that does not mean they have to be complied with as you see fit. I will not raise the dead, for the soul prospers. Your prayers often involve others than yourself, and others have their own will. You are not singled out for pain. You are not singled out for My love either, although I clasp you to My heart and give you My love profusely.
You may interpret what occurs in life as indication of My love or indication of My not caring or even incompetency. When you do not have life as you would have it, you think you have been denied and that I denied you. I would deny you nothing. It is not My nature to deny you. Keep that thought. I have given you everything. Wheels have been set in motion, and what I see you do not. You see toil and woe. I see your soul vibrating in My light.
Your soul and I are great Companions. We have great camaraderie. Your soul understands love and furthers it. Your soul knows not of obstacle. Obstacle is an invention of man on Earth.
You were placed on Earth for happiness. If you are not happy, you have jumped to some incorrect conclusions. Despite what bounds you feel on Earth, you can choose happiness. Unhappiness is not foisted upon you. It is not even offered you, but yet you pick it up as you would a valuable coin on the pavement. You collect unhappiness and think it is a medal, and you pin it to your lapel.
Happiness is your due, but you owe it to yourself.
Do not rail at the Heavens when it rains. The Sun is still here, and it will come out. Be certain in the knowledge of the Sun.
Do not shake your fist at the importunities of life. Do not accuse Me, for that puts you on the wrong trail.
Everything in life may not be set before you as you like. But everything is set before you. You have all the utensils to choose from. You have a choice of everything, but everything does not have to be your choice. You cannot choose every occurrence in life, but you can choose happiness. You can move on from events to joy in life. Joy is lacking in your perception when you get stuck somewhere. Moving on in life always has its accompanying joy.
You have much to look forward to. Look up. Let go of the past, and your step will be lighter. Do not keep a tally on life. Put tallies aside. Keep heart instead.
You are full of promise. Make promise your actuality. Savor life. That which you savor is imagined as much as that which you do not savor, for, in a blink, it is past, and how you are somewhere else. Memories are imagined past. A moment ago is a memory. Keep moving.
There is only one thing to remember and that is what is always present whether you are looking at it or not. Call it God. Call it love. Call it energy of life. Whatever you call it, call it to you.
Golden cords of love are dangling before you. They are everywhere. You cannot fall. You are supported. You have straps of love to hold onto and to keep your balance. You are standing in My love. You are surrounded with My love. Pay attention to My love more than you do to the details of life.
