The essence of you is I. I am the Essence of You. I am the essential of you. All the clambering you do, and still you are My stillness. You are the silence and the beat of My heart. The beat of My heart is precious within you, and the silence We make together supports everything. The silent is the spoken, beloveds. Do you understand Me? I see that you don't quite.
In life, there is a rumble. There is a lot of rumbling. From where does the rumbling come? Let Us say there is an avalanche down a mountain. The avalanche makes a lot of noise. From where comes the landslide? It comes from the silent mountain. From where come you, beloveds, and where are you going? And what is your hurry to get there?
The waves of the Ocean lap the shore. Even the mightiest wave is a manifestation of the Ocean. A mighty wave is only a drop in the bucket of the Ocean.
At the same time as it is ripe for you to acknowledge your magnificence, you are also ready to acknowledge from where your magnificence comes. It seems like a contradiction to suggest that you home in on more of yourself at the same time that I suggest you let go of yourself. See yourself as more Supreme and less supreme at the same time. In fact, what will happen, what is going to happen, is that your dependence upon your individual identity is bound to leave. It is true that, to find yourself, you must lose yourself. It is in the losing of yourself that you are found. The essence of you cannot be lost. Can even the essence of you that you have carried around with you be considered to be found? Only what is lost can be found, and yet you find yourself in Me.
The powers that be are housed within you. All the power of the Universe is at your disposal. It has never been otherwise. You must know some of the power within you. You have had hints at it. You are a Mighty Being. You are not Mighty Mouse.
From the Silence comes your power. It comes from nowhere else. Power does not come from noise. It does not come from bluster. It comes from the Silence of the Heart of God, and that simple heart that bears My Name is succored in your heart. Use it, beloveds. And what is another name for the Silence of the Heart of God that resides in your heart? It is love, pure simple unadulterated love. You are the essence of love. You are not an essence of anything else.
Of course, from an essence comes drops, and yet the essence remains and does not change. The essence stays true to itself. Stay true to love, beloveds. There is, after all, nothing else for you to do.
You ride on love. Whether you ride on a donkey cart or a snazzy car or on a slow train to China, you ride on love. You walk on love. You run in love.
Even in motion, you are the Silence of Love. You are the same as the love in My heart. You are the repercussion of it. Welcome to My heart, beloveds. Welcome. You have always been welcome to it, and you have always availed yourself of it. You have always come to the trough to drink. You drink, and yet you may not have noticed. The power you have is Mine. There is no other, and yet you have all of it, and yet you are unaware of the power you have. You have the power of decision and the power of indecision. Beloveds, there is no power that you do not have.
