HEAVEN #2458  Glorious Are the Wonders

CHANGE IS THE NAME of the game, beloveds. Be ready to change directions at a moment's notice. More than flexibility is required. You will have to become free-flowing water and be affable whatever direction you go in. In Truth, you are an all-directioned Being.

Did you know in advance where you would happen to be right now? Did you know that you would be sitting in this chair in this location facing south or east or north or west?

Why, then, beloveds, are you so sure you know where you should face next? Why are you so certain that one choice is optimum and another is not? Why turn your nose up at one idea and embrace another? Is it not possible that you can embrace them all and be happy whatever number comes up?

When you are so certain what life should be, you get stiff-backed. For you to have a comfortable back, you are required to be supple. Be supple in life, and your back will follow.

Have you thought you knew how your life would turn out? Do have the illusion that your life has turned out and is glued to where it seems to be now? Better to think your life is moldable, and it is being molded now. Not even brick will keep you fenced in any longer.

The choices are infinite, as infinite as you. You are multi-dimensioned. Did you really think your life would go on one track, and one track only?

Now you may well veer in life. Be ready for sudden turns. Be ready, and there will be no whiplash for you when the car of life takes a sharp turn, for you are like the willow tree and not the mighty elm.

One way or another, you are going to swim in the ocean of life. You will go from raft to raft. There is no telling which longitude and latitude you will find yourself in next.

Aren't you really deep-down glad that life, your life, is not measured and allocated to certain points, glad that your life is new? Be ready for newness because it is ready for you. You are going to pirouette in life. You will be swift of movement, and ready to accept life at every turn, ready to accept what you think of now as future. Your future is assured, and that it will catch up to you - that also is assured.

You are assured that you will move in life. Life is not at a standstill. There may be mesas every now and then. You may have dug yourself in, and you will be called on to dig yourself out.

Glorious are the wonders I have stored up for you. When you run to meet your future, you will catch it on the run, and you will have adventure right and left. You are going to have the ride of your life, and all it takes for you is to be ready to get on. The taxi of life will stop for you, but only for a moment. The more readily you jump in, the more comfortable seat you will have for however you long you have it. This taxi may be a jet, or a rocket ship, or a comet, or a Ferris wheel. You can know it will be something. It will really be something. Would you really hold back the dawn? Wouldn't you like to see the sun coming over the horizon, and be ready to hop on, ready for the ride of a lifetime, ready to take off at a moment's notice, wouldn't you like to?

HEAVEN #2470  Lead With Your Heart

YOU COME TO ME here every morning as if to a water trough. You are thirsty. You come for a drink of God. I am here.

Do not feel bad if you do not always feel your deep connection with Me. There is value in despair. You get thirstier and hungrier, and so you are motivated to seek the more you seek, even when you don't know the name of it. Hunger and thirst are great motivators. They urge you on. They get you moving. They are your coaches. Give them your attention.

Suffering of all kinds, physical and financial, loneliness, all these bring you to the water trough of God. Thank them for bringing you closer to Me. They have been your buddies for this time they stayed with you.

Of course, you didn't really need them, for I press the water of My love to your lips constantly. And yet those friends carried your awareness to Me. Even if they were not necessary, they served a purpose. I send you love. Beloveds, but do not think I sent these erstwhile buddies to you. I never said you must have them.

It is as if you have been wounded in war. Suffering and pain are like your medics who rush you into the tent of God where all healing takes place. It is your heart that gets wounded, beloved. It is always the heart. Even pain from your big toe comes from your heart. Your heart has been squeezed, and it yells, "Ouch" through your toe. Whatever the illness or pain, it comes from your heart. Heart damage is the real cause. Your heart needs to be healed. It is always your heart that needs to be healed.

Let Us heal your heart right now. Whenever you resisted, you hardened your heart. Yet your heart is to remain soft. It is never to be hardened. Hardness does not benefit your heart. Your heart is not meant to be bolstered. It is meant to be softened. Be soft-hearted. You do not have to admit anything into your heart that would harden it. Let's unharden your heart now.

Unburden your heart of anger and all such emotion. You truly feel those emotions in your heart, and yet those emotions have no place in your heart. Your heart wears a white wedding gown, as it were, and no mud is to be thrown at it. Your wedding dress of a heart can take a lot of mud, and yet none of the mud belongs there. Your heart is meant to be pure and clean and as fresh as a daisy. Be clean-hearted. Wash your heart with love today. It is with good reason that Valentines are shaped like hearts. Hearts are where love and love alone is to abide, to abide and then to be given away, making place for more love, new love, love resounding, love abounding, eternal infinite love filling every crevice, love spilling out, love splashing, love having fun.

You might have thought that putting up a strong barrier around your heart would protect it, but such a fence only hurts it. The stronger the fence, the more it abrades your heart. Your heart becomes a prisoner of the fence. Your heart is not meant to be part of a gated community. Your heart is meant to be right out there in the open to receive love and to stream love out like sparkling water in a running brook.

Your heart is your guide, and it is splendid. It is the leader of the band. Your heart belongs right out there in front. By all means, lead with your heart.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Gloria Wendroff always loved reading, writing, and inspiration, but she never gave much thought to God - let alone dreamed that a time would come when she would hang on to every word of the Best Storyteller of All. Not until after forty-two years of wandering did she become conscious of a desire for God. Then it was another twenty more before she began to hear a whisper. Now, looking back, she can see a tiny hint here or there but nothing to prepare her for what was to come.

After teaching creative writing, English, ESL, and business communications, writing boundary-breaking resumes and a monthly job advice column for many years, she learned and taught meditation, traveled Europe, studied in Thailand and India, and discovered God back in America. Of all the messengers along the way, two were movies! One was a photograph. At least one was a book. And, of course, many, many were people. There was no one great epiphany. There were many great ones and some little ones. But, suddenly - ah, there was God. Ever since Gloria discovered God, she has been receiving and sending out God's words every day via email, giving free readings of God's words across the country, getting God's personal answers for people who want them, helping others dare to do their own Godwriting?™ in workshops, making CD's, and getting Heavenletters, Love Letters from God, Book One, published - all with an ear to the Still Small Voice and bringing earth closer to Heaven.
