HEAVEN #1691 What do you say?

God said:

LET ME BE YOUR REFERENCE POINT. Let Me be your starting point.

You have read many books, and you quote from them. You read great thoughts, and you parlay them. But everything from you is not to be second-hand. Great thoughts are great. Used great thoughts are no less great. They can be used thousands of times, and they are undiminished. Yet the time is now for you to find your own thoughts. Pull up the greatness that is within you. Today I ask you to let go of quoting other sources and find the resources within you to have a voice and to allow the greatness within you to be spoken.

What do you say, beloveds? What do YOU say? What are your thoughts?

Have you not in some sense hidden behind others’ greatness? You peek out from behind their books. You highlight lines and you forget your own. The selfsame greatness that lies within all the great books lies within you. The greatness within you is taking form now. Find out what your own thoughts are, and speak them. Come out from the imagined protection of others’ thoughts and claim your own.

Enough following in others’ footsteps. Make your own. That is the same as to say: Hear My Voice.

You will hear Me within you. You have heard Me within you. You have restrained your own wisdom from pouring out. You were so programmed that you didn’t think you had anything to say, but, beloveds, how would you recognize great wisdom unless you were already the carrier of it?

You do not need back-up. Or, rather, I am the only back-up you need. Read uplifting material for all the great solace it gives you. And then you, My beloved child, solace the world with truth from your own vision, from your own heart, from your own Being.

I did not set you as a parrot in the world.

You have your own connection to Me, and I can speak through you as well as anyone else.

What do you think? What do you feel? What do you say? What new thought have you today? Now you move on from repeating wise thoughts from others. Now quote yourself. Find those great quotes within yourself.

Rely more on yourself and less on others. You are to learn self-reliance. You have already learned from others, and now it is time to learn from yourself. That is to say: Now it is time to learn from the One Who dwells within you. I dwell in no man more than I dwell in you. If I am extant in any person, than I am extant in you.

I do not speak louder to anyone than I speak to you. I do not mumble My words. Beloveds, where did you think all wisdom comes from if not from Me? And now you know, and now you seek and speak from within.

Beloved angels on Earth, We have a wireless connection. Unwire yourself from outer knowledge, no matter how great, and pursue that great knowledge dormant within you. Do not be dismayed that the great knowledge within you has lain dormant. Is it not a good thing to know that you have My wisdom within you even though it may have been unused?

The world would tell you that you are a collector of other wise men’s thoughts, and now I tell you to collect your own. Now is time for you to reap from your own garden. I planted it for you long ago so that today you may garner its great wisdom. Do you begin to see the great wisdom within you that yearns to be released?

HEAVEN #1704 Spun Gold

God said:

That means it was always true, but now it is filtered down to where you can begin to see it. All the good that is – is. All you have desired – is. Even that which you did not know to desire – it has already come about. All goodness is tapping you on your shoulder.

This is awakening. This is what it means to awake. You shake your head in disbelief or in amazement at all the good that tumbles on you. Great rewards were beamed at you long ago just like the light from the stars. The light was sent many years ago, and now you see it. How simple this is.

You thought you were walking on ordinary pebbles, and now you find that you have been walking on gemstones.

You thought you were hailing a cab, and now you know it’s a Golden Chariot from Heaven that has pulled up to the curb.

You thought perhaps you were a wolf in sheep’s clothing, or a sheep in wolf’s clothing, and now you find that, unbeknownst to you, you were angel in the guise of Human Being all along.

You thought being a Human Being wasn’t much, and now you find it was Greatness all along. You had covered your eyes in sadness, and now you look up at the Sun.

All that you have desired has come upon you. In fact, more than you have desired is upon you. Ease is upon you. Wealth is upon you. Freedom is upon you. Joy heaped on joy is upon you. You are laden with love. You are laden with love the way grass is dew-laden in the early morn.

Beloveds, you are beginning to find love under every toadstool.

You are beginning to cavort in the universe. You leap from star to star. You are catapulted across the universe, you somersault, and you land on your toes in the midst of an unending cartwheel.

How will you express this lovely joy that is upon you? You will express with exhilaration, and you will express with quiet humility, for a wand has been waved over you and now you are a ballerina of life. You are a rapper of life, a songstress, an acrobat, but no longer do you walk a tightrope. You fly through the sky. You are alert to all generosity of the universe, and so you pick it up. You pick it up and toss it over your shoulder, all the goodness of the universe, all of it.

It was always yours, but now you claim it. You sign for it on the dotted line. You acknowledge receipt. You have long recognized UPS deliverymen. Now you recognize angels and the God of Heaven as He, the Great Server of All, appears everywhere, bright-faced, eager to serve you.

I carry trays laden with sweetmeats. I give you water to drink and ripe fruit. All fruit is ripe today. This is the perfect day, for you have arisen. You have met Me in the horizon of the world. You have procured Me from Heaven. You didn’t meet Me half-way. You went right up to Me and took Me by the hand.

Of course, My hand was reached out to you all along. I have always offered you this dance, and now you proffer your hand too and clasp Mine.

We spin on the dance floor, and you recognize that you are spun gold, threads of light finely woven, sparkling, entwining light upon light, until you are no longer a dancer, until you have become the dance, an eternal dance danced upon the universe. And then you see that you are the universe, and the universe is you, and all that is I and I and I.

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.
