You are like the good soil that waits to be tilled. You await for Me or someone to make you all that you already are.
 
You are like a blossom on an apple tree. The blossom doesn’t wait for anyone or anything to open its blossoms. It unfurls its blossoms when the time comes.
 
Your time is coming. Your blossoming is on the horizon. Wait no longer. Wear the hat that is yours to wear.
 
Everything is ready, and only your looking up is waited for. You wait when you are already the inceptor of the wonderment that you are. The whole Universe waits for you, and you are waiting for your blossoming to arise. You are waiting for yourself. You yourself are the button you are to push. You are the initiator of your own enlightenment. You wait for Me to come in and set you off. I also wait for the signal from you.
 
You are like the orchestra conductor who is to give the signal. You are the One the whole Universe is waiting for.
 
Would you have Me and the Universe wait for you? Why the delay? When are you going to claim your birthright? You are the dawning sun, and you are to arise to the full sunshine of your God-given light. You are the director of your story. You are the inceptor of your enlightenment. Turn on the lights!
 
The name of your movie isn’t Waiting for Enlightenment. The name of your movie is more like: Ringing the Bell of Enlightenment. You are the one to ring the bell. You are the Bell Ringer of Your Own Enlightenment, and yet you wait for a signal when you are the one to signal that your light has come. You are the fulfiller of your own dreams.
 
It is true that sometimes I come in and shake the bell for you and yet how wonderful when you stay My hand and say:
 
“God, My Father, My Mother, let me serve You. May I anticipate every act of Yours and serve You. You have served me so much, I want to serve You. My heart is full and wishes to express itself. Of course, I want to serve You.
 
“What would mean as much to You, God, as my ringing the bell of my own enlightenment? Of course, I recognize that enlightenment isn’t something that belongs to me. It belongs to You. Surely, I can help you out. I can anticipate Your wishes. I can appear and serve You a glass of water before You tell me. I can take a hint. I can take initiative. I can anticipate Your requests. Right now You request that I open my eyes and see myself in the light that You do. What does it take for me to become self-realized but to realize my Self? You are my Self waiting in the wings of this theater.
 
“You want me to step right up and claim my award.
 
“God, You are my award, only I have to stride across the stage and accept the award You have long held for me.
 
“Certainly, I can go right up to You and accept the award You have long desired me to have.
 
“It is Your happiness that I claim Your Light so that I can serve You with greater strength and greater Light. Above all, my desire is to serve You. May I return to You some of the favor You have given to me and filled me with.
 
“I shine in your bright light. This is enlightenment. I accept the light You have given me. I accept gladly the gifts You gave to me from the moment I was conceived. You are my Creator, and I accept the Badge of Honor You placed in my heart so long ago. You already anointed me, dear God. I am Your Anointed, and, in Your name, I accept.”
