Keep your vision high. It is valuable to look into the eyes of everyone you meet, and yet it is also valuable to remember to keep looking up. You are here on Earth to give service to Me. If you give all of yourself away to individuals, you keep them and yourself focused in a narrower range. It is true that all the good you do benefits all, and yet it is time for you to focus now on a broader service, just as it was for the Great Ones.
The Great Ones were not thinking: “Above all, I serve individuals.” They were thinking: “Above all, I serve God.”
If the Great Ones focused only on their service to individuals, they would have been confining themselves to limited service. Please do not misunderstand Me. One who serves another, serves Me. When you take care of even one person all your life, you do serve Me. Service is service. What is done for one is done for all.
At the same time, the Great Ones' service extended beyond the blessings they gave to individuals. They gave plenty to individuals, yet always their allegiance was to Me. They had the energy and love and wisdom to serve individuals because they knew they delivered a vaster service to Me. They did not make themselves important. They did not broadcast themselves, and yet they did not keep their service to Me private. They did not keep Me private. They broadcast Me. They did not boast, nor did they keep themselves and their service to Me to themselves. They did not hide out. They gave an example.
They supported and uplifted people according to their times. They walked the Earth and gave away their service to Me to all they could reach. It is oversimplifying to say that Buddha stayed in one place, and people flocked to him, yet let Me oversimplify. Christ and others traveled the Earth and spread My messages everywhere, and they spread My messages constantly. They knew that their mission was greater than repeated healing, do you understand Me? They expanded themselves. It was Myself that they got out there to the world.
Before radio and television, they served Me to the populace. They were not making a name for themselves. They were making a name for Me. They did not hide themselves from public view. Their modesty and humility did not come before their service to Me. They might have liked staying simple individuals with only their immediate world in mind, yet they went out and exposed themselves to the world in their service to Me. They did not keep silent.
I am not telling you to go out and become a missionary. I do not ask you to go door-to-door. At the same time, you have the internet and you have email, and you can take some responsibility for sharing Me and yourself with others on the internet. You are not meant to be a recluse when it comes to Me. You are in the world. Perhaps you already share recipes on line. Perhaps you share your troubles. Perhaps you share anecdotes, beauty tips, and are active in online dating. Forgive Me, dear ones, when I say to you: “What about Me? Have you left Me out? Do you keep to yourself My popularity with you?”
If you share a favorite recipe, can you not share Me? If you gossip, can you not share Me? If you talk about a movie you saw or a book you read, can you not share Me?
Heavenletters make it easy for you to share Me. Not everyone in the world is going to read My words as avidly as you, but wouldn’t it be nice?
