It Is God’s Gift To Us

“It is God’s gift to us that we should be capable of a consciousness of our own spiritual nature and our purpose to manifest the love of God. Only we humans, among creation in the Earth, have been granted this gift of consciousness.  We can all be conscious, confident, and secure in the knowledge that we are of the One Force-one with it, while at the same time being an individuated part of it.

We are endowed with the God-like qualities of love, will, and mind. The spirit of God and of us all is one and the same. 

As a spiritual entity, one with God, we are destined to grow and develop and ultimately to return to a full communion with God.

All good, all hope, all mercy, all purpose of divine flows from Love itself; that God would have us in our former estate,

knowing ourself to be one with God yet individual, capable of making those influences that make known the joy of love that law is love, love is law to all.”  (ECRI 1157-1)

The purpose of the heart is to know yourself to be yourself and one with God. (281-37)”

John 14:10 – Don’t you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words I say to you I do not speak on my own authority. Rather, it is the Father, living in me, who is doing his work.

You Are Always Free To Choose

Life is very full and so it should be. Life is very exciting and there is never a dull moment when you are following My instructions step by step, for as you do so a whole new vista will open up before you.

The way will be made very clear when you choose to follow it.

Remember you are always free to choose, it all rests in your hands which path you take. I point the way but I do not force you to take that way. But when you truly love Me you will want to take it no matter where it may lead to, because you know I will guide you along the right path even though it may appear to be a very strange path.

Obey My still small voice and let Me use you as My instrument to bring about My wonders upon this earth.

Healing Through Prayer – Edgar Cayce

Thy prayers ascend to the throne of God and the angel of each entity stands before the throne to make intercession.   (ECRL 3954-1)

“In some of the early readings for the Edgar Cayce Prayer Group, we find explanations of the basic theory of healing through prayer. Let us examine a few of these statements:

Question: Please give a definition of vibration in relation to healing.

Answer: Vibration is, in its simple essence or word, RAISING the Christ Consciousness in self to such an extent as it may flow OUT of self to another to whom you would direct it. (ECRL 281 -7)

Question: Is group action more effective than individual, and if so why?

Answer: ‘Where two or three are gathered in my name, I am in the midst of them.’ These words were spoken by Life, Light, Immortality, and are based on a law.  For, in union is strength.  Why?  Because as there is oneness of purpose, oneness of desire … The multiplicity of ideas may make confusion, but added cords of strength increase the ability and influence in every expression of such law.  (ECRL 281-24)

The concerted effort on the part of a group actually accentuates the Force or power that may manifest in or through any individual.  (281-5)

Question: Have I been the means of helping many through meditation?

Answer:  Many, many, many. (69-3)  In the meditation, then OPEN the mind, the being, to the influences about same; surrounding self with the consciousness of the healing that is in the Christ Consciousness, the Christ-awareness. Say thus: GOD, USE ME — MY BODY, MY MIND — IN SUCH A WAY AND MANNER THAT I, AS YOUR SERVANT, MAY FILL THOSE LIVES AND HEARTS AND MINDS I MEET — DAY BY DAY — WITH SUCH HOPE AND FAITH AND POWER IN YOUR MIGHT, THAT IT MAY BRING THE AWARENESS OF YOUR PRESENCE INTO THE EXPERIENCE OF OTHERS AS WELL AS MYSELF.      (ECRL 1992-3)”

A Happy Outcome To All Things Is Sure

“God’s promises make no exceptions.  And He guarantees that only joy can be the final outcome found for everything.

Yet it is up to us when this is reached; how long we let ‘an alien will’ appear to be opposing His.

And while this ‘alien will’ is real, we will not find the end He has appointed as the outcome of all problems we perceive, all trials we see, and every situation that we meet.

Yet the joyful ending is certain.  For God’s Will is done in Earth and Heaven.  We will seek and we will find according to His Will, which guarantees that our will is done.

We thank You, Father, for Your guarantee of only happy outcomes in the end.  Help us not interfere, and so delay the happy endings You have promised us for every problem that we can perceive; for every trial we think we still must meet.
