The Theme That Runs through Your Life

God said:

No matter how much you may love your past, you have to step out of it.

No matter what, you have to step out of the past. You just can't keep on lingering there, beloveds. Holding on to the past is putting constraints on yourself. Holding on to the past, whether happy or unhappy, makes you sad. Now, there is nothing wrong with being sad, yet holding on to the past is an indulgence. It doesn't get you anywhere. It immobilizes you.

Life on Earth is change, and at every moment life is changing, and you are changing. Once you were a toddler, and now you carry a toddler. There is not a moment of life that stays the time. Take a photo this minute, and in the next minute the sun has moved.

The state of your life in the world is always changing, and you are always growing. Come to terms with the fact that relative life does not stay the same. There is not one element of life pasted on that can stay. Let the past be a beautiful bird that has flown away. Whether you let it fly away or not, if you like it or not, the fact is that the bird of the past has flown away.

You cannot change the past. You cannot keep it. The past, despite all you know, is irrelevant to you. You were in Tennessee, and even if you still live in Tennessee, you and Tennessee are not the same as you once were. You are not the same as you were yesterday. You who are eternal are in a speeding car on Earth. Vroom! You are off! What is the past now but a composite of thoughts you have? Even your thoughts about the past change. You may try to keep your thoughts the same, but not even your thoughts about the past will stay in place.

Clinging to the past is futile. The past is over. You have no choice but to let go of it. The past has gone on its journey, and you must go on yours.

If you were the decider of how life on Earth would be, you too would opt for the impermanence of the past. You would know that past has to be let go of. There would be no craning your neck back.

The past is a teacup you once used to drink from. You don't really know where that teacup is any longer.

The past is a dress you used to wear. It may have been a beautiful dress, yet you can't wear it now. Even if it fits you, it is not the same, and you are not the same.

The past does not belong to you. Even if you could keep it, it is not yours to keep. The past is not beholden to you, nor are you beholden to the past.

If you must hold on to something, hold on to Me, for I AM as I always was and will be. I am with you now. I am the theme that runs through your life. You can keep Me with you. In fact, I insist on being with you.

You simply cannot rely on the past. It is out of your grasp. And I am right within it. Right now I AM.

The Theme that runs through my / your life

This dear letter from God is so adamantly, irresistibly, insistently about the NOWNESS
of God's LOVE. God's LOVE is not a bygone thing of the past, God's Love is the
NOWNESS, THE HOLY PRESENCE OF ETERNALLY DIVINE LOVE NOW, and
it's the gloriously LOVING THEME that has any meaning, it's based in TRUTH
and i adore God's saying, "Our Love is Here to Stay NOW, NOW!!!" Our magnificent Souls
want nothing BUT THE NOW PRESENCE AND THE PERMANENT TRUTH THAT DIVINE
LOVE IS.

"Our greatest obstacle to

"Our greatest obstacle to reach God is time" says Eckhart Tolle, since we are so seldom fully present in the NOW, that contains and is everything.

If you must hold on to something, hold on to Me, for I AM as I always was and will be. I am with you now. I am the theme that runs through your life. You can keep Me with you. In fact, I insist on being with you.

You simply cannot rely on the past. It is out of your grasp. And I am right within it. Right now I AM.

"In fact, I insist on being with you." is one of the sweetest things God could say !

Right now, in this very moment, we are everything we ever searched for, we haven't lost it in the past and it is not to be found in the future, it already IS, in the stillness and love of our very BEING.

much love

God in any ways

To all dear friends, please try to understand my english. These are the words more "magnifique" I have eard. Please, look for discovery of quantum physics: it's the same thing! The littlest moment "NOW" it's a time like 0,000000000000000000000000000000000000000000005391 second! (Plank) This is the real "present time", the most little measurable time. this is the quantum time. Each quantum time leaves the place at the next quantum time. When I say "Now" it is 0,0000... that I intend. God speaks to us in many ways.
It is a fast sequence of creation and annulment that we perceive like continuum.
But if it is really so, the time is opposite! there isn't past, next present, next future. It's the future that runs towards us with his infinity of oppurtunity, the present is created by the future, by our choises. The past doesn't exist, is only the sinapsis brain that hold it. The future is now by our choises, the past is unreal.
Well, I would write correct english, it isn't so by now. I would like to tell you more and more about quantum physics because I think is the God's Thinking, but you can search for it everywhere.
Whit all my love

I like learning physics from

I like learning physics from you because it comes through your heart.

I wish I could speak Greek 1/100th per cent as well as you do English.

You might have a good laugh at my attempt at Greek in a blog entry called How to Speak Greek Perfectly!

to gloria

Hello Gloria, it's me, pitta. I don't know why it doesn't accept my usual name, but only my name and surname. ?
Bye!

I don't know either,

I don't know either, Patrizia, but of course I love real names!

If time and space are not,

If time and space are not, then "where" is my "past"? I have a past, I remember it clearly, I have photos with dates on their backs. Either "time and space do not exist" is a mere metaphor for I don't know what or time and space are really different from what I have been thinking they are.

Memories have to be connected to some "real" experience or they would be mere delusions. My childhood right behinde the dunes on the North Sea coast does not feel like a delusion at all. And it definitely feels past, much more so than what feels like yesterday or last year. But if not even yesterday or last year is in the past because there is no time and therefore no past, then how can I cling to anything past? Where is that which I cling to, be it fond memories or sad and depressing ones?

Why do some Heavenletters™ use temporal expressions like "once" and "the next moment"? I suspect that's just a concession to our conditioned way of thinking. Conditioned? How does conditioning take place without time? And yet there ist this slightly hair-raising feeling that "no time, no space" (and, therefore, "no matter") is quite literally true. That's because Oneness sounds so very true. If there is Oneness threre can't be otherness or elseness, there cant be two, there can't be time, there can't be anything different from THIS.

It must be that everything past present and future is ... well I can only call it now although "now" is a temporal expression implying continuation. Instead of now we could say "present" or "simultaneously present". And what our experienced reality consists of depends on how we look at the Allness of everything. What I see and therefore experience is not determined by what is there because everything "past, present and future" is right before me now. What I see and therefore experience is solely determined by my gaze which, by resonance, makes certain things stand out from ever-present everythingness (which, for the most part, is virtual or latent "until" lighted up by a gaze).

Sorry, friends, I got carried away. This may look like mere speculation to you and perhaps some of it is. But most of it is inspired by occasional faint inklings of what Oneness and "no time" feel like. Turning my head away from this screen and looking outside, there appear to be backyards deep in snow, smoke from a chimney, birds, and when I move my head, the whole scene seems to shift. What if nothing is there and it's my gaze that makes something appear? Or what if everything, absolutely everything from snow-covered backyards to lovely palm beaches is somehow "there" and my gaze simply picks out or lights up that which I believe is there, leaving everything else in the dark or in a state of latency?

I know that ideas such as these bring up ten new questions for every answer they seem to give. They are not to be taken too seriously, but I found that diving in for a seeming moment and then forgetting about this stuff again can be very refreshing and helpful. It strengthens your resolve to really really turn away from everything unpleasant or painful and leave the past, seeming or real, to itself because every fulfillment imaginable is right in the palms of our hands. Whatever seems lost, it is here, right here, eternally. Simply adjust your gaze.

While I was writing this,

While I was writing this, Mary's and Berit's beautiful comments appeared and I found them when I posted mine. What a lovely ensemble now. How good to have friends on all sides!

Poor...poor Jochen...

Dearest Jochen,

Your angnst always "discombobulates' me. I had my "share" of childhood misappropriations, my "share" of young adulthood misdeameanors, my "share" of DRAMA in real life and my SPIRITUAL QUEST. Didn't we...don't we all??

However, if you would like to "borrow" my God that carried/carries me through it all, and end up on the other side of the rainbow, HE/SHE will gladly oblige. We are ONE, so you can even "borrow" my life. How's that for "Oneness"? My life is/was 99% GOOD...very, very good. The other one percent is nothing. It DOESN'T COUNT. Who we REALLY ARE NOW is EVERYTHING. Tomorrow is always without qualification better.

Gratitutude endears one to God...

Lovingly,
Bonnie

Who is what?

Oh, no, dear Bonnie,

there is no poor Jochen. Will you plerase come nearer to this beloved human being and see his richness, and his wonders? They will not discombombulate any more. They will set you straight.

Theophil

My Dear Theophil, Where is this Not So???

My dear Theophil, I "referenced" the response I sent to Dear Jochen, and these are the HLs I received...

Friendship is a beautiful thing, for when you value and love your friend, you naturally feel great consideration for him. This awareness of your happiness in loving your friend is a symptom that you see him as yourself. He has become yourself. This friendship is not based on gain. It is based on giving from the purity of your heart because this is what you want to do and what makes you happy. Beautiful friendship has given you a head start on Oneness...Imagine how it will be when you feel for everyone the love you feel for your dear friend now....What unfathomable riches and happiness await when you do truly know everyone as yourself, not on the mind level, but on the level of reality of the heart. How marvelous to be surrounded by such loveship, and how marvelous for you to radiate it. This is ascension, beloved.

Turn your worries over to Me. You are not to have them. They are extraneous to you. They have nothing to do with you. You pursue your worries, you repeat them over and over again, and you create ANGST in your heart and in the hearts around you. There is a vibration to worry, and it is not a pretty song.
Whatever is too much for you to feel at peace with, turn over to Me. It does not belong to you. It is not yours to carry around. It is yours to give to Me. I have a special trashcan for it. Your worries faze Me not. They do not accrue to Me. I put them where worries go, and that is in the trash heap. Worries are no good to you. They are worth nothing. They are wear and tear. With worry gone, what will cause ANGST in your heart? Worry is an idle pursuit. It is a weed that grows. Extricate it.
When you find another worry, as you are wont to do, as if you couldn’t live without a worry, send it to Me right away. I have instant disposal. Immediately, your worries fizzle into nothing.

Be like the Beloved Animals

I am so glad to find Heaven

I am so glad to find Heaven quotations from you again, Bonnie.

Does everyone know I am compiling a second Calendar Book of Heaven Sutras? Please post your choices on this forum.

There is a Heavenletter that tells us to refrain from looking at anyone as "poor" in any sense of the word.

Thanks for the "Correction", Mom!!

I suppose reproach would be the opposite of gratefulness. Even though opposites do not in truth exist, for the sake of language, We will say reproach is the low end of thanks. At least reproach acknowledges something. Even reproach rubs up against Me. Of course, reproach is short-sighted.

How Enormous Is a Thank-You

Response to both of you

Thank you, Theophil, dear friend, for your kind and loving words. But you see, even if "poor" isn't really applicable, one experience I probably share with others is that my path out of victim consciousness is longer and strewn with more potholes than I'd like it to be. So every reminder is almost as welcome as your warmth.

And dear Bonnie, although after reading your comment several times I still don't know what it is about, I feel there is a note of sympathy which I like. And your Heaven quotes are wonderful. So, thank you.
 

I am reminded of a story I

I am reminded of a story I heard or read long ago. It was this:

If everyone's life were put in a hat, and we could pull one out, we would always want to get our own back.

I have learned a lot from everyone who posts here. Among all these, Jochen has been a constant inspiration to me.

If you must hold on to

If you must hold on to something, hold on to Me, for I AM as I always was and will be. I am with you now. I am the the theme that runs through your life. You can keep me with you . In fact , I insist on being with you.
What more could we ever need to know? such peace.
Much love Nancy

Hello Heavenletters readers

Hello Heavenletters readers and wonderful creators of Peace and Love :o)

I thought I would share a very personal poem with you that I was given on Valentine`s Day.

If ever a truth or love be told,
If ever was cherished of growing old.
If ever was warmed when ever was cold,
If ever`s forever then everything`s you..
If pure could be written or shivers sang, or touch could be spoken, or looks exhaled ~ If ..... and tears could be given through this, then I`d give you all that in one sweet kiss. If nothing was - and I - If ever had been - If nothing need be but the place nothing`s in - If you were just you - and - I - me, We`d be as happy as any could be....

Lots of Love to you Hege :o)

Your poem really says it,

Your poem really says it, Ever!

So profound and so challenging... living in the Now

Thank you, dear Gloria, for this beautiful expression of what we all know yet is often so challenging to accept. It is especially poignant when going through a move: packing up things to take with you or toss out? What has value? Which items had value for you once and no longer relate to who you are now? Who of your relatives or friends would ever value them the same way? Out. Out.

The heart is enough to keep forever.
