Take Off Your Disguises

God said:

If you did not ask yourself so many questions, if you did not weigh every thought and action so much, if you did not debate back and forth with yourself so much, you might even have peace. As it is, there is a tendency to disrupt yourself from peace.

You are the tennis ball that your thoughts bat back and forth. Whack, whack, whack.

You take a scholarly interest in your thoughts, and you have indecision. Once you make a decision, you bat that around a few more times, and then you have misgivings. If in your decision, you went left, you may ponder that you should have gone right. If you chose right, you ponder that too. You even ponder whether you should have gone in any direction at all.

You are a taskmaster. You who do not like to receive advice, certainly advise yourself enough. You give yourself mixed signals, and so the peace in your heart is disturbed. Could you not be more easy-going and less of a taskmaster?

You may even be worse than a taskmaster. You may have appointed yourself a merciless tyrant. You may be the world's most merciless tyrant in your approach to yourself and the world. You may be so hard to please that you are impossible to please. No matter what lengths you go to appease the tyrant in you, the tyrant of yourself imposes severe penalties. In one form or another, the penalties are that you cannot feel good about yourself. You may not even try any more to raise your head above the world, for you think, "What is the use?"

And so you enter rivalry, and so you spread your ungainly feelings, and you pretend to yourself that you don't care anymore. You are so under the thumb of the merciless tyrant that you assume the role he has given you.

It is Truth I have given you. Not a role. You are a Being of Light. Your light does not go out. You can pull shades over your light, yet you can never dim it. You can wear Halloween costumes. You can even dress up as a ghost of yourself. If you do not recognize your pure Being, that is what you have done.

Or you may make a clown of yourself.

In any case, costumed, you become disloyal to yourself. You enter a parade and don't mind where it is going. You will go along with it. No matter how noisy the parade and the crowds, you will forego peace for it. You may even rabble-rouse.

Having given up on yourself, you may even choose disharmony over harmony, "Why not?" you may think. "If I cannot rise, I might as well not care. What can it matter to anyone in which way I fail? So then I will succeed in overturning the apple cart."

Beloveds, come back to veering in the direction of peace. You will find value in peace. You will find value in yourself in peace. You will find Me in peace. You do still want Me, don't you? You haven't given up on Me, have you? Even if you have, come take a spin with Me. Let's see what music We can make together.

It is not really that you give Me a chance. It is that you give yourself a chance. In truth, rather than a deserter, you may be a hero. You do not know all that you may be underneath the garments of disguise that you wear. Take off the disguises, one by one, little by little, or all at once!

I, of course, see through the disguises. You may still believe in them. Believe in you instead.

Exactly. I'm not always in

Exactly. I'm not always in that situation, but right now the description fits as if given specifically for me. I'm really eager to see where this is leading.

Jochen's running to it.

The gate is wide open for you my hungry friend.

Ego once again

All these disguises, it's all little ego once again.
Not yet enough used to trusting in our Higher Being, ego takes the opportunities we leave open for it to fill them in.

Ah, but our Higher Being is so much more than little ego, and when we realise we took the wrong route like on a nice scroll and walk back to the right route, our Higher Being is gently waiting there for us with open arms.

And we move on again in the direction that God is showing us, until.............?

TAKE OFF YOUR DISGUISES

DEAREST MAESTRO, CREATIVE DIRECTOR OF THE GLORIOUS UNIVERSE OF LOVE

SO, WE WEAR DISGUISES. THAT MEANS, I THINK, THAT WE DON'T LIKE OUR BEING
IN THE WORLD WITHOUT THEM, WE DON'T REMEMBER THAT WE ARE GREAT
RAYS OF LIGHT. YESTERDAY, I HAD THE LOVELIEST THOUGHT THOUGH - THAT WE
EACH ONE OF US, IS AS A SPARK FROM THE FIRE OF YOUR HEART. THAT REALLY
TOUCHED MY SOUL. PROBABLY BECAUSE THE IMAGE IS SO TOUCHING, AND SO
DESCRIPTIVE , IT'S EASY TO FEEL THE IDEA, AND THE WONDER OF THAT IDEA.

TODAY I CHOOSE TO REMEMBER BY YOUR GRACE, ALSO, ALL THAT I MAY TRULY BE UNDERNEATH THE GARMENTS OF DISGUISE THAT I WEAR.

A GREAT RAY OF LIGHT, A SPARK GLISTENING AND LOVING THE FIRE FROM WHICH
I HAVE FLOWN FROM TO BE HERE. AN EMBER THAT DOESN'T GO COLD, BUT WHICH
HOLDS THE RADIANCE OF THE ETERNAL FLAME OF YOUR DIVINE LOVE. THANK
YOU - MAY MY HEART STOP ALWAYS AND SAY, "I AM A GRATEFUL SPARK FROM
THE FIRE OF GOD'S HEART"

Mary Moon should be mary Sun, She's so bright!

I hope everyone will read and reread your comment. It has the power to turn the switch to "on".

This is one of the most beautiful of all comments. Drink it in deeply!

Gloria has God telling us how to be what we are

"Take off your disguises", the love Letter from God says.
All your life, to the very moment you are reading this comment, you have worn the costume that your life put on you with the help of your parents, teachers, ministers, beliefs, understandings, and all the social deceptions that come through the media of TV, papers, magazines and the like. You have to have a special lover come from behind the common scenes of everyday life to teach you how to undress in the presence of the King of Kings. How is this realized?
l. Read the Heaven Letters day by day.
2. Think about them, love them, wish them into your consciousness.
3. Don't try to DO them, let them find their loving way into your consciousness.
4. Out of your consciousness come choices, decisions, and a life style that eventually will reflect the heart and mind of the King.
5. Learn to look in the mirror and say "I love you!" over and over until you discover that the one in the mirror is a shadow picture of the one that lives behind the image you are looking at.
6. Keep saying quietly in your heart: "I'm a child of the King." The disguises will fall away like magic. You'll see.

Hello fellow tyrants,

Are there more of you or is it just me? I wonder, is God being overly negative here, overgeneralizing and overdramatizing, imagining taskmasters and merciless tyrants that aren't really there in numbers worth mentioning?

Well, I believe that God knows exactly what He is saying and that there is ample reason for Him to speak as He does. Perhaps it is that you have long since chosen to keep quiet and try to find value in peace. That's an absolutely valid approach, just as valid as speaking up, I believe.

TA was founded long ago and tacitly, and it's so anonymous that its members don't even know they are members. But hey, what if it's true what God says here and we will all turn out to be heroes?

Being called a merciless tyrant by God has a reassuring effect on me. I feel that being a merciless tyrant is just one of those things that may go wrong for a while, nothing serious. Nothing to write home about but also nothing to keep secret.

The God I know is not

The God I know is not negative at all, let alone overly! He loves us at the same time as he doesn't coddle us. If we are hard on ourselves, who is being negative?!!!! :)

From my point of view, we're all heroes. It's brave to be alive on Earth and go out the door!

What is TA an abbreviation for?

Lotsa merciless tyrants out there, I think

Jochen, I think there are lots of tyrants out there, in the way this letter uses the word tyrant. I have been a tyrant to myself. I have been very demanding and unforgiving to myself most of my life. In my experience, most other people seem to also be tough taskmasters for themselves. Gloria, I don’t think this is at all negative. I think it is an observation that God makes that is freeing. He is saying lighten up on yourself, you have dampened your own spirit with your incessant demands and judgments toward your self. If we can take this to heart it is a very positive thing!

Chuck, thank you. Your words

Chuck, thank you. Your words are what I hoped for. I mean, how am I — how is anyone — going to use God's words as fuel for take-off if we don't acknowledge they are about us? Okay, there are Heavenletters that very clearly state there is nothing we have to do, and I love those. But it feels so good to say: "Yes, my God, I can recognize myself in the portrait You are painting." It feels good to know there is Someone who knows you. Being seen by someone is ... well, what is it? Anyway, I love you.

Chuck's Light burns bright, but oh, the lamp shade.

Chuck, the only tyrant in your life is the Fake Chuck called ego, with its concepts.

The ego is a temperamental CD that was burned by your mother and dad, your teachers and preachers and some books that seemed introspective. That man-made CD is always negative to the core, deceptive and it blinds us to the divine CD we entered life with that plays its intuitive melody of creation, love, hope, forgiveness, and intention.

If you go back and check every decision, every intention you had in light of your motives (known and unknown) you'd see a divine hand had turned up the volume on the divine CD from Heaven so that you moved always in a gradual upward path.

The divine mind hides behind the ego CD to help us avoid the narcissism of unwholesome love for the seeming appearance of body image. The divine CD point us to the knowledge that we are formed in HIS image. This is LIFE working its magic in our unfolding.
