People are about to become more aware. In the meantime, they will feel more powerfully than ever the anger, fear, sadness, loneliness,  depression, and sense of futility to which they are attached. They will awaken to these patterns not because they are becoming more deeply ensnared by them but because their inner eye is seeing them clearly for the first time.

    Think of it like this: You are walking in a rainstorm when, looking ahead, you suddenly see clear, bright blue sky. In the countless days preceding, the weather was gray every day. You became used to the gloom and didn't notice anything unusual. But seeing from the new perspective of the blue sky, you suddenly acutely feel the wetness and coldness of that constant rain. And this is what I mean when I say that you are experiencing your feelings more sharply: You are sensing more keenly the burden of your various pieces of old baggage.

    You're still in the rain, but please don't simply sit down in it. You need to continue to walk; it's so important that you keep walking. Don't allow yourself to be caught sitting in the rain. Recognize that the baggage you are dragging along is not you. It's just what you have picked up as you have gone along--like the street people--thinking that you need it to survive. But carrying this baggage is barely survival! It is survival in a very dismal and unreal dream. I encourage you not to be caught up by these matters.

    As you read these words, look at your own situation, particularly at those times when you feel downcast. Are you aware of repetitive patterns that tend to frustrate you now more than in the past? Realize that it is not only your old patterns of being which are frustrating you but that what matters most is that you are now seeing the blue sky. There is a greater hope now, a greater purpose to be achieved in your life. It is time to walk forward.

    If you ask Me how to do that, I will tell you that part of the pattern which has kept you from going forward involves your fears of what you might discover in opening your heart. Also, you live in a world where the innocence that accompanies an openness of heart is looked upon with skepticism at best; you may even be criticized as being naive or stupid for opening your heart. But it is important now to be open in your life. After thousands of years of human evolution, look at what you have attained as a people. I simply ask you: Is this what you want? Life is far more miraculous than what you have known! You are being asked to open your heart. If your heart is not open, there can be no magic that will change your life, that will help you to a higher level. Not even the most enlightened soul outside you can help you if your heart is not open. This is a crucial point. It is you yourself who must go beyond your fear, go beyond those old patterns, no matter how much they might want to persist. See them for what they are. Discover the innocence that can be yours and let it be a way to fully open to communication between you and Me.

I love to hear your open-hearted communication with Me when there is nothing standing between us, even if for but a moment each day-no veils, no masks, no protocols....
