For the benefit of new Heavenreaders, Diane is three-year old Molly's mother. Because of prenatal difficulties, this beautiful little girl's muscles are weak to the extent that she is not as yet able to lift her head. — Gloria

Update from Diane:

Dear Gloria, all is well here. Molly stays healthy and is getting stronger and has such a wonderful sense of humor. When things seem slow or sad, she says, "Well, at least we have Thanksgiving going for us!" (or whatever the next holiday is — it started with Halloween).

I keep having new insights supported by God and Heaven (at least we have God going for us!). Hope all is joyful for you.

Gloria:

Dear God, look at Diane and Molly. Aren't they beautiful.

God:

Simple, Gloria. They know what matters. They know that love matters. Little Molly knows how to wring goodness from every moment. A wise little girl who will inspire many with her light. A little girl who will take the world to new heights. A teacher from Heaven. A blessing to the world. Teaching the power of consciousness, lighting the way to My heart, opening doors, swinging them open for all to see where I am and where I lead.

Diane, make sure that you tell Molly that she is a special messenger from God, and that she has great things to do for Me that only she can do. Will you do that?

Indeed, Molly and Diane have God going for them.

Gloria:

Dear God, after that, I feel petty to start talking about my preferring to write down what You say upstairs as opposed to downstairs, but here's what happened:

I wrote the following this morning:

"I'm at the computer trying once again to write You from here. Thinking of questions downstairs isn't even as easy as upstairs. I must give too much power to the pen and not enough to You. Or I'm like a kid who wants his milk a certain way in a certain mug, when the milk is the same no matter what it comes in. Karen would say it is all my programming.

"Here in my office, I am exposed to the world, so to speak, really open to the street. Upstairs is cloistered. Upstairs there is a skylight for You to come in, and I can always see the stars, and the moon when it's in the right position."

Well, God, that's what I wrote this morning. As I was writing about how I like to write upstairs, You intercepted with the message above for Diane and Molly. You just came right in. You galloped through my fingers. The Godwriting felt the same as when I do it by pen upstairs, dear God! I can do it! You did it! It really was divine intervention. Is this a miracle!

If I had had faith in You, I would have known that you would.

God:

If you consider the One Constant in the world as a miracle, then, yes, I am a miracle. I am everywhere. I am in everyone. No matter what the packaging, I am the packaged.

I am in your pen. I am in the keys of your computer. I am upstairs, and I am in your office.

I am in the vibration of your bedroom, and I am in the vibration of your office.

I am God Almighty.

In a way, there is more room for Us in your office. More angels can fit in. Of course, We know that angels don't take up space because they can dance even on the point of a pin, but you can feel the hosts of angels in your office right now, banks of them, filling the room with joy, encouragement, and laughter.

You thought you could only get short segments of My words in your office when I am just the same in office or bedroom, in sky or earth.

Close your eyes every once in a while as you type. That's it. Computer is even better, because you can type with your eyes closed. See how nice that is.

Mother Divine and I would like you to write right onto the computer. This is the 90's, Gloria! It is almost the 2,000's! This is life speeded up.

And, indeed, time — that unreality — does go faster.

So what is speeded up? If time is not so, what is it then that goes faster?

It is your evolution. You are catching up to yourself faster. Pretty soon you will surpass yourself and say, "Huh? Where am I?", and I will say, "You are here."

You don't require a laptop, dear Gloria. Your require to sit in the lap of God. Wherever your body sits, you are in Heaven. Heaven overtakes. There is more Heaven on earth than you know.

You have to be more like Molly and see truth and to stop focussing on the nonessentials. The nonessentials keep you away from the essentials. There is only one essential. There is one thing you cannot do without. There is one thing that without which you would not even be, and that is I, that is My love, My truth, My joy, and they are yours no matter what the outer circumstances.

Outer circumstances are a myth. You think that because a certain mural of Paris is painted on the wall that you are in Paris, or if a mural of the Bastille, that then you are in the Bastille, but they are pictures on the wall. You are nowhere but with Me.

Where do you live? With Me. With Whom do you live? With Me. No one lives alone. No one is alone up in their bedroom or their office. No one is alone in the middle of the desert.

And no one is with anyone else either. There is you and I. We are the company. The sum total. For all is you and I. You just have imaginary playmates that you picture as outside of you. You and I are real. Just you and I. The I of you embraces the I of all the people.

There is no journey you have to take. There is no journey you take. You think you take a journey to Me, to the stars, to a place beyond, but all you do is take Me to your heart. You embrace Me. You find that We have always embraced. That is your journey. Self-realization is your journey. Self-realization is My playing field. It is not exactly a game of Hide and Seek, because I am never hidden. You have just closed your eyes and are waiting to open them.

Why do you wait to open them? It is not that you think I won't be there. It is that you think I will be there, and that you are not ready. But you are ready for Me. Just as you are. Just as you are.

Gloria:

What about earning you by truth?

God:

That is how you become ready to open your eyes to Me.

What is faith? It is of Me. It is faith of truth. It is accepted awareness of Me. The truth is, I AM. Knowing that truth is faith. That is the only faith you need to have. When you have that, you have faith in the workings of the universe.

You know that Heavenletters is going to cover the universe. You know it because it is My Will.

You do not know how or when. You just know I AM.

When you know that, you are neutral. When you know that, you are not attached. When you know that, you do not control. You give to God what is God's.

You are neutral about the Recreation Center's including Heavenletters in their upcoming anthology. If they do, you are glad. If they don't, you don't mind. You are unattached because you know that I have something else up My sleeve. You know I am not idle. You know I know what I am doing. You know I AM, and that I AM all that is, and that I enjoy Myself and enjoy you, and that is all you have to do, the very same, is to enjoy what comes and see Me in it. And what comes is I. That is all that comes to you.
