Humanity is one with itself, everyone is family, and the true nature of everyone is Love!

Message from Saul via John Smallman for 24 May 2016 

As Jesus has told you, humanity’s awakening is imminent. I know you feel that you have heard this said many, many times, and yet it seems that nothing has occurred to confirm that humanity’s awakening is ongoing, let alone imminent! But, because you have listened to our messages to you from the spiritual realms telling you that your awakening is imminent, you have, as a result of listening to us, strengthened your collective intent to bring it about. 

And, as you have also been told many, many times, the power of your individual intent, without mentioning the amazing power of your collective intent, is enormous and extremely effective. You are awakening humanity. Yes, each one of you holding the intent is making it happen. As so many channels have told you already, it is your intent that is making it happen. We, of course, support you in every moment, but you make it happen. You all made the courageous choice to incarnate during these “End Times” to assist in this momentous event and ensure that it happened. And it will. 

You are the collective! You do not have even a slight awareness of the vast numbers of you who chose to incarnate at this enormously important moment in the illusory dream of separation that God’s Son chose to build and experience so many eons ago. As you well know, in truth it was but a moment ago that you chose to play the game of separation, but you used your immense power and imagination to construct an environment that would appear very real to those who engaged with it by incarnating as humans. And thus it appears, bringing intense suffering to many, but with the constant hope being maintained that things would improve, that life would become easier, less stressful, and that eventually peace would arise and that all on Earth, without exception, would be provided for abundantly. 

Well that moment draws nigh because your collective intent has, particularly over the last five or six decades, been coming more and more into alignment. Previously, for eons as you measure time on Earth, you bought wholeheartedly into the belief that you were each separate beings, separate from God Whom you imagined as an infinitely powerful Being watching over your every thought, word, and action, and judging you harshly whenever you failed to live up to the standards that you imagined He demanded of you. 

But, God is Love. He never judges, because Love is unconditionally accepting of every member of God’s Divine Family, because that is the nature of Love. And every conscious entity, without exception, is a beloved member of that Divine Family. 

Separation is not only illusory, it is impossible, because all that God creates is eternally One with Him. And there is nothing apart from what God creates, because God Is . . . God is All that exists. 

Humanity has spent eons at war with itself, causing itself intense pain and suffering, as it has attempted to establish a safe haven within your illusory environment where it can live in peace with those it judges to be its friends and family. 

Humanity is one with itself, everyone is family, and the true nature of everyone is Love! You have been told this many, many times, and yet you choose separation by judging most others as unacceptable or enemies because of their supposed differences from you. You see all those weird people out there who are obviously unacceptable to the god that you worship, and who you therefore believe must be at least avoided and kept away from your loved ones, or, better still, labeled as terrorists and destroyed! 

Those you judge and wish to destroy are other members of God’s One divine family. And, of course, many of them view you through the same massively distorted lens that is your sense of perception. This game that you have been playing has become unconscionable because it has reached the stage where those who still wish to play it have only one motive, namely to destroy all whom they judge to be evil! And of course the word “evil” really only means “different.” And separation is a state in which you see everyone except yourself as different. You have a saying “keep your friends close, and your enemies closer.” The reason being that you can trust no one! 

And this attitude is the absolute insanity with which the illusion presents you, because it has succeeded in convincing you that you are separate from one another. And, of course, you are not. What you share, give, project, impose, or in any way do to another you do to yourselves. When you are in a loving relationship with anyone – intimate partner, family member, close friend – you see all that is admirable about yourselves reflected back to you as you look into their eyes and find acceptance and love there. When you are in a relationship of conflict you see all that you despise and that disgusts you about yourselves – but which is denied and very deeply buried – reflected back to you. 

BUT, you are all perfect Divine Beings. What you experience in the illusory state of being human is duality, opposites, confusion, and chaos. It makes no sense! Why? Because it is unreal! You constructed a game, and as you know a game is played by opposing teams or opposing individuals! You chose to play this game, and then forgot that it was a game, and used all your human intelligence to outwit and destroy those whom you decided were your opponents, your enemies! 

How, as the beloved children of God, eternally One with Him and with each other, can you possibly have enemies? Surely there are very few of you who do not see that as insanity. 

Therefore, go within daily, connect with the Love that resides there, open your hearts fully and allow and accept what It offers you in every moment of your eternal existence. When you do that, wholeheartedly, without any reservations, peace will fill your hearts and Love will embrace you. When you allow that to happen your whole perception of life, of love, of people, will change completely. You will see only Love in others, Christ-consciousness, your true and eternal nature shining forth and reflected back to you. 

Going within daily, as more and more of you are doing, and accepting the unconditional Love that is offered to you constantly, is changing the world. As you surf the web, and seek out the alternate news sites that report on the wonderful events that are occurring as a result of people engaging with and operating from their true nature, you will see that the changes for which you have all been hoping and praying are happening. Major essential changes are happening right now all across the planet. You are living in the time of humanity’s awakening, the time for which you have been praying and hoping for eons, and it is NOW! 

With so very much love, Saul.

God has infinite faith in your ability to bring the Light of His Love to all of humanity

Message from Jesus via John Smallman for 19 December 2015 

In the illusion, moods occur in your subjective experiences that flow like the weather. Sometimes that emotional or experiential “weather” stays dull for long periods. Some have referred to it as “the dark night of the soul,” meaning a time when they are feeling very down and seemingly unable to connect with their spiritual side, their oneness with Source. That is depressing to experience, but it is a time in which great and important spiritual work is being undertaken beneath the level of your conscious human awareness, and when you come through it, as you will, it is as though a great burden had been lifted from you, and enthusiasm for life once more bubbles into your consciousness, and your inner knowing that you are an indispensable and infinitely loved aspect of God comes back into your awareness. 

It’s all about letting go of the illusion, and the first steps involve the personal realization that it can never satisfy you, which is depressing, because you have relied on it for pleasure, enjoyment, and distraction, and to finally realize and acknowledge that it can never truly satisfy your needs is very unsettling. BUT, it is also the first step towards awakening, as you come to realize that only God’s Love can satisfy you, even though you may often have felt yourselves to be unlovable and then assumed that God judges you even more harshly than you do yourselves, thus confirming your unlovableness. In this, you are in fact producing an idol from your imagination, an imaginary human type of authority figure much larger and stronger than you whom you think of as god, and who has the same insane need to judge, condemn, and punish as you do! 

BUT, God does not judge, ever. He is Love, and Love is unconditional, because there is nothing else, so no one is excluded, everyone is infinitely loved for all eternity. Those whom you choose to see as evil, unacceptable, deserving of hell are just mirroring back to you your own self-judgment. When you cease to judge and start forgiving and accepting, you will see those others in a different light – as suffering damaged ones desperately seeking Love and terrified of rejection. There is no rejection, because every child of God – and all are children of God – was created perfect and nothing has occurred or ever could occur to change that. 

That sense of being unlovable is an aspect of the illusion that absolutely drives many humans to seek joy or relief in a variety of addictions that, in the end, only bring them more pain. Letting go of addictions can be very difficult, as issues that you would rather not look at tend to invade your consciousness – guilt for misdeeds, and judgment of self as unacceptable, not good enough, not strong enough. As clarity arises, it is very tempting to flee back into the apparent safety of whatever addiction you use for escape. Anything that you use to avoid being quietly alone with yourself, to keep yourself busy with the world “outside” yourself, is an addiction. And there is nothing outside yourself! 

That is why it is essential that you go within daily. Doing so allows and encourages your hearts to open to the divine field of Love in which you are eternally enveloped. Many have difficulty with this, because the ego is ever alert to the possibility of you abandoning it in favor of God’s Voice, which is with you always just waiting for you to become quiet and open. So, your egos fill your minds with all kinds of distractions – needs, shoulds, anxieties, anticipations – anything that will prevent you accessing the state of quietness and stillness that will enable you to hear the quiet and loving Voice for God. 

However, if you just persist and sit, allowing the issues that you fear to arise, and then just observe them without judgment, you will begin to feel the Love enveloping you, and you will be able to forgive and accept yourselves, as you come to the realization that there is only Love, that all else is illusory. 

Intellectually, many of you know this and accept it but, due to the enculturation that appears to enfold you and make demands on you as a human from the first moment that you experience human awareness as a tiny infant, you all have a deeply ingrained sense that you need to conform to the cultural norms of the society into which you were born. At some stage, an intense need for personal freedom will arise and the child or young adult will either rebel against the intrusive nature of the imposed culture, or succumb to cultural pressure and conform. From that moment on, inner conflict will disturb and confuse the individual, and the only way forward is through it as the mind develops the ability to reason and then discard all that dishonors the integrity of its divinely created self. 

All have the ability to move forward and leave behind the cultural conditioning that they have undergone. You are all Divine Beings of infinite integrity who chose to incarnate as humans and experience self-doubt, unworthiness, and unacceptability for the lessons that a life in the illusion could offer you. You chose human life in this moment of the illusion to assist in humanity’s awakening process, and in order to be of service, you had to undergo the full illusory experience. This does make it difficult initially for you, as the memory of your true nature is hidden from you by the cloak that is the illusion. 

Nevertheless, you have limitless assistance from your support team in the spiritual realms who are constantly available to answer when you call. You have been very well prepared for the human task you undertook, because prior to incarnating you were given intense training to enable you to deal with all the eventualities that you might encounter. Still, the cloak that hides your true nature from your awareness is heavy, and frequently, when you attempt to go within, it appears to shut you off or isolate you completely from your spiritual guides and mentors, the Voice for God. Often people feel that they are wasting their time trying to connect with spirit, that the spiritual realms are just a figment of their imaginations, a sad and desperate attempt to find something holy to believe in, because “the real world” is such an unhappy place filled only with suffering and poverty. But of course, that “real world” is illusory, as you well know, and you will awaken and find it has dissolved without trace. 

Until that moment, it is your most urgent task to go within, to keep going within, to persist in your attempts to hear the Voice for God, and to distance yourselves from the distractions with which your egos attempt to entice you back into the illusion. You are on Earth to be the Light and the Salvation of humanity by demonstrating Love in action and by constantly holding the intent to share and extend the Love which our Divine Source wishes to channel through you to humanity. All you have to do, all that you need to do is to intend to be a willing conduit through which God’s Love can flow. Nothing more. 

But when you allow your doubts about God or about your own worthiness to be a channel to occupy your thoughts, it is as though you were damming the river of Love, so that beyond you the ground experiences a drought. Trust in God, the Source of All That Exists, and know that the Light and Salvation of humanity shines through you to bring all home to awakening. It is a done deal. Humanity’s awakening is inevitable, but your input, your individual loving intentions are an absolutely essential part of the deal. 

God has infinite faith in your ability to bring the Light of His Love to all of humanity, and your will and the Holy Will are One. You cannot fail, because you have already chosen to do the Will of God. So, go within at least daily and feel the Love that envelops you, and listen to the Voice for God offering you wisdom and guidance in every moment. 

Your loving brother, Jesus.

You are Godlike Beings, children of the Divine Creator, created like unto Him – Vast, Powerful, and Majestic

Message from Jesus via John Smallman for 14 October 2015 

Me: Good morning Dear Jesus. Thank you very much for your last message, what do you have for me today, as I do a quick clean of the kitchen in preparation for my son’s imminent arrival? And these last few days, in fact for the last week, I have felt quite upbeat, cheerful, optimistic. I’m wondering if it is just because I’m getting out and about more, being more social, or if it indicates an opening of my heart and an increasing acceptance of life as it occurs as an indication of my increasing faith that I am on my path and therefore doing what I came to do. Because previously, although I receive and post our messages, I have felt that I’m a bit of a waste of space, a useless eater. That feeling has almost totally dissolved, and I can’t help wondering if it is but a momentary upliftment of spirit, or will it last. So many of the saints and mystics I have read about have had ongoing “dark nights of the soul”, whereas I am truly blessed in not undergoing those kinds of deep depression. So, maybe I’m just changing my attitude, my perception and seeing things differently, as one of your lessons in ACIM (A Course in Miracles) suggests. 

Jesus: Good morning John. A good visit with your son is indeed a treat for you, which you will undoubtedly enjoy. And it has given you the motivation for some tidying up around both house and garden! As you well know, I always have a message for you and for our friends, so relax a moment into listening mode, and then we can begin. And yes, your happier state of mind is as a result of your changing perceptions, and these improvements or upliftments will continue – there truly are no limits to happiness! Just keep intending and allowing your heart to open, and it most surely will, as are the hearts of so many others all across the world. 

Enormous change is occurring in preparation for humanity’s awakening, which is ongoing right now. Be uplifted, be inspired, and share the energies that arise as a result, they are all aspects of Love, your true and eternal nature. We are all One! And you are all finally accepting and agreeing to that truth, which is why there is such joy in the spiritual realms, where we can see so clearly the remarkable attitudinal changes that humanity is in the process of making with such loving intent. 

All humans are spiritual beings, that is beings of pure energy, temporarily having a very limited life experience due to your choice to enclose yourselves in human bodily form. That body, while able to provide enjoyable sensations through its physical senses, is basically a shield that separates you from your true nature as Beings of Light. While embodied, you can choose to be unloving, uncaring, competitive, aggressive, self-seeking, and unaware of the feelings of others, or you can choose to be the opposite. The body hides your true nature from you, making it possible for you to make these kinds of choices. However, without it you can only be the fully sentient and conscious being that God created, a being of infinite Love. 

God, Love, our Source is unaware of anything that is not in complete and unchanging alignment with Love, because there is nothing else to be aware of. God is All That Exists and each sentient and conscious living entity is part of and eternally One with Him. There is nothing but God. The best way to conceive of that is to try and imagine Love as a field of infinite energy, far, far vaster than the enormous universe in which your tiny planet is located and on which each of you in your minuscule human bodies resides. You are, as One with God, the only Reality, VAST beyond your ability to conceive of, and you then chose to experience limitation by reducing yourselves, so that you could fit into the extremely limited vehicles that are your human bodies. It is really no surprise that you frequently feel extremely frustrated with your apparent smallness and consequential insignificance! 

To be as vast as God is, which you are, because you are eternally One with Him, and to experience a life that is severely limited by your human form, and while seemingly unaware of your true nature, is an extremely confusing and most unsatisfactory state of affairs. You know that your human form is inadequate, and yet there appears to be no alternative. Most of you at some stage then start to look for the real meaning to your lives as you tell yourselves “There has to be a meaning, a much deeper and more realistic meaning than just struggling to stay alive.” And of course there is! 

You are Godlike Beings, children of the Divine Creator, created like unto Him – Vast, Powerful, and Majestic – so, life as a human can never satisfy you. If separation from God was possible and had happened, then your lives would be incredibly short and meaningless. But separation from the Source in which all existence resides is impossible and you are all, every single sentient being who has ever entered the illusion, perfect Divine Beings with infinite wisdom, infinite knowledge, and infinite creative ability, because you are one with God who is Love in which All That Exists has its eternal existence. You can never be less than God Himself, because when He created you, He endowed you with all that He is. That is a concept that is practically meaningless to you in your severely limited illusory state of existence as humans. In fact, it appears insane. 

So, REJOICE, because what you are experiencing is utterly unreal, and you are about to awaken into Reality and recognize yourselves once more as the eternal and Divine Beings that God, out of infinite Love, created you. Love is all-encompassing, unconditionally accepting and utterly inclusive of all, because It is All! There is nowhere except God, Love, Reality, Heaven, Paradise – use whichever of those utterly inadequate words resonates most satisfactorily with you, or any other! – and each and every one of you presently on Earth, as well as all those who have preceded you or who will follow you, are eternally One with That. There are NO exceptions, so cease judging others as better or worse than, and understand that every sentient being is an absolutely essential part of God, no matter what it appears they are or may be doing as humans incarnate on Earth. 

You truly have NO conception of the vastness of God, or of You, while you have chosen to limit yourselves to believing that the illusion in which you find yourselves is real. You have indeed built an extremely real seeming environment in which to experience life as separated humans competing constantly with one another for the goods, the benefits, and the necessities of human life. And I say to you, “REJOICE,” because it is UNREAL. You will awaken, because God is Love, as are all of you, and He could not and would not allow you to sleep indefinitely experiencing dreams and nightmares that terrify you. 

It is His Joy and His Will to see you awake and sharing in Joy with Him in every moment – eternally fully conscious, eternally fully aware, because that is how He created you, and your apparent existence in your illusory world, with all its inevitable pain and suffering, is to be terminated as you awaken into that state of infinite Joy! 

You have free will, therefore you have complete freedom to construct and build as many illusory worlds or universes as you choose, but they will always remain unreal, illusory, because God, of Whom you are all inseparable parts, is the only Reality. Therefore, you will awaken; your awakening is inevitable, because it is impossible to remain asleep and dreaming for more than a brief moment. 

When you awaken, and that moment is imminent, your Joy, along with God’s, will be infinite. So, every day, please, enter your inner sanctuary, that holy of holies within each one of you where the flame of Divine Love burns continuously, and refresh yourselves with the loving embrace that awaits you there. By doing that you move ever closer to awakening, and as you do, the energy field of Love that you are expands and flows outwards to all others within the illusion bringing them also ever closer to awakening. 

You are all One, utterly inseparable from one another or God, but you have forgotten this, and within the illusion that seems to be a weird concept, an insane idea that a few weirdos cling to, because they are unable to cope with life and death in the “real world.” Well, the weirdos are those who are desperately clinging to that “real world” in which conflict, suffering, betrayal, and “death” are endemic and real! 

As Divine Beings, eternally at One with God, but apparently living long and stressful lives alone as humans, you each do have, deep within you, an Inner Self or space – containing intimations of the Real You – where you have instant access to us in the spiritual realms. We watch over you constantly, and we constantly await any calls you may make to us – by any name you use to call on us – for assistance. We are always available, there is never a moment when you could call on us and not receive an immediate answer. 

Unfortunately, by the time you have called on us, you have mostly decided what the answer is that you wish to hear and you have acted upon it, and so you frequently do not hear our response to your call, and believe yourselves to have been unheard. That is why practicing listening as you meditate or sit silently in that inner space is so important. 

You can hear us. Often you choose not to, because, having considered and judged the situation with which you need our assistance, you choose to follow a less wise course of action, and when the results are less than you had hoped for, you decide that you are indeed on your own – separated, which is an absolute impossibility – and that seeking assistance from us is useless, because we obviously have either not heard you, have chosen not to respond, have misunderstood you, or do not exist. 

I assure you that we truly are with you in every moment, that you are never alone, abandoned, unseen, or unloved. When you experience those sensations, it is because you have chosen to shut yourselves off from Love, because you fear that you are unworthy of It. As children of God, there is never a moment when you are unworthy of His infinite Love for you. Go within, ask for a Love squeeze, and let us show you how dearly loved you are! You need that reassurance, you are entitled to it, and we are here to give it to you. 

Your loving brother, Jesus.

What you are doing on Earth is ESSENTIAL!

Message from Saul via John Smallman for 1 September 2015 

Here in the spiritual realms enthusiastic anticipation is mounting as the light holders and light workers on Earth continue to raise the consciousness of the collective to new levels of awareness about their spiritual origins. All sentient beings are spiritual beings first and foremost, even if they have lost awareness of this basic truth. Life is eternal, unending. The form it uses or presents may change, but the underlying spirit is changeless, a divine creation, perfect in every way. However, embodied on Earth as a human, its awareness is restricted by the limitations that a human form imposes upon it. 

The human brain, the energy information receiver that is used by your body, has only limited channels on which it can operate and only limited intelligence with which to interpret the incoming signals that it receives. BUT, your hearts can open far wider to the constant stream of Love (information and creative potential) that flows from the one Source, God, and that envelops you in every moment. 

Over the last few hundred years, Western Cultures have focused on intelligence and logic to make sense of the world, discarding the spiritual knowing of the eons that is an essential aspect of your awakening process. This is mainly due to the corruption and breakdown of spiritual information that has occurred when the divine messages received by saints and mystics has been “reinterpreted” by their enthusiastic first followers to fit in with the rules of behavior and belief that they then attempt to impose on those whom they proselytize in order to control them, as they build religious organizations which they use as a stepping stone to power. 

Reason and logic are very useful tools that can help people work with and understand the environment with which the illusion presents them. But tools can be misused and damaged, and when they are, their usefulness is severely reduced. The intellect cannot tune in to the waves of Love with which God has surrounded you, because it is an aspect of the illusion and its purpose is to separate, divide, and break apart. It is an excellent tool when used with your sciences to come to a greater understanding of your worldly and physical environment, to understand how things work and then use that knowledge to make life as a human easier or more satisfying by reducing the need to work constantly to survive. But it has no ability at all to connect with Spirit, your true nature, which exists eternally in a state of infinite joy, knowledge, wisdom, and awareness. 

Due to the successes of recent modern technology, your innate sense of spirituality has become even more cloaked for many, because the distractions of the illusion have become more enticing. Many think that science will eventually overcome human death, and in the meantime, as people live longer and longer, the search for a meaning in life has become a quest for further toys with which to amuse yourselves. However, despite the well known and utterly apocryphal saying “he who dies with most toys wins,” the distractions and enticements of the illusion do not provide lasting satisfaction. The toys that you have become boring, and new ones have to be invented to replace them, and the rate of replacement keeps accelerating. 

You are divine beings, One with God, but temporarily unaware of that ultimate Truth. And while that Truth remains hidden or cloaked, you will continue to seek satisfaction, perhaps even ecstasy in the enticements of the illusion, but, of course, you will never find it there, because it can only be found in God. 

God created you in and with infinite Love and in that state you were sublimely happy. However, having total freedom, one of God’s many gifts to you, you chose to use it to “escape” from His loving embrace and experience separation, life without Him. It occurred to you that free from His eternal Presence your life could or would be more interesting or exciting, in fact more ecstatic. 

Obviously, it has not turned out like that. You have only to look around you to see the absolute futility of your efforts to build a world of happiness without Love. God is Love, and Love is your nature, to be without It is like being without air when you are an air breathing mammal, or like a fish without water, survival in that condition is impossible. 

You need Love. But most of you are attempting to live without It, because in your state of separation, as humans on a planet that requires you to struggle constantly to stay alive and seemingly compete with one another for the basic necessities, which appear to be in short supply, sanity and logic seems to demand that you put Love on hold, while you fight each other for survival. 

You all desperately want Love, and are continuously searching for it within the illusion, where It cannot be found. You may experience It for short periods of time, but either pain, suffering, disease, betrayal, or eventually death persuade you that Love is a lost cause, and that you are far better off focusing on your individual survival, as you attempt to escape the inevitability of human death. 

Your awakening is an awakening, or more correctly, a re-awakening into your true nature as beings of Love. And it is absolutely inevitable. But before you can return to that state or to that awareness, you must release all that is not in harmony or alignment with Love. There is only Love, as you are continually being reminded, all else is illusory, but while you hold on to the illusory, Love escapes you, hidden under the cloak that is the illusion. 

So, as we watch with great joy the amazing progress you are making towards your natural and eternal state, we would remind you with all seriousness of the essential need that you take as much time out from your daily earthly duties as you possibly can to retire to your holy inner sanctuaries to refresh and strengthen yourselves by calling on us for assistance and for a loving hug. You are spiritual beings and you need daily contact with the Love field that envelops you. In spite of your inability to feel it in its true fullness, it is embracing you in every moment. When you go within, restate your intent to be loving in every moment and in every situation, because that expands and strengthens your individual energy fields, which are pure Love, and spreads them throughout the world, where they are mixing and integrating with the energy fields of the whole human collective and dissolving all that is unreal, all that is unloving, so that your re-awakening happens, as divinely promised and intended. 

What you are doing on Earth is ESSENTIAL! No one else can do what each one of you incarnated to do, and you are doing it magnificently, as you will understand when the cloak dissolves or the veil disintegrates and you finally see what you have been doing so earnestly for so long and with such wonderful determination. Yes, we are well aware that you get very little direct feedback, which is why we keep contacting you like this to reassure you that all is fine. Do not be disheartened by what you hear and read in the mainstream news media, because the Divine Plan is unfolding precisely as God wills, and you are assisting beautifully with that unfoldment. 

With so very much love, Saul.

As Children of God, each one of you is a very powerful energy field of Love

A Message from Jesus via John Smallman for August 23, 2015 

Many are feeling that the illusion is strengthening its hold on humanity as the mainstream news media continues to report – apparently with great satisfaction – on wars, conflicts, economic fears, corruption and dishonesty in high places, and myriad other unhappy events and occurrences. These reports do certainly refer to numerous ongoing global events, but they are truly only a very small proportion of planetary activities. The current flows of the Tsunami of Love, which has been enveloping the planet since late in 2012, are much more far reaching in their uplifting and inspiring effects than any of the supposedly “bad news” events on which the news media attempts to focus your full attention. 

As Children of God, each one of you is a very powerful energy field of Love. You each have free will and can therefore choose to engage with your field of love or to deny and ignore it as you go about your daily lives as humans within the illusion that you collectively built so many eons ago. The choice you make in this regard – and whether you are aware of it or not, you are making and remaking this choice in every moment – directly affects how you experience life. Increasing numbers of you are now choosing engagement, and the effects of this engagement are visible all across the world. 

Your real and eternal nature is Love. You were created in Love, and Reality, the Presence of God – or, if you prefer, Heaven – is Love. Your existence is eternally maintained by God, our loving Father, within the divine field of Love that is all that exists. You cannot depart from it, because nowhere else exists. There is only God, the Source, the field of Love that is His creation, and it contains all life without exception. 

Within that infinite field God's only Son was created and had bestowed upon Him all that is God, which is everything. The only difference between God and His Son is that God is, always, whereas His Son was created by Him to join in the ecstasy of Life everlasting with His heavenly Father in that field of Divine Love. However, Love does not control, it is utterly free of any form of manipulation, domination, or restriction on the one loved, otherwise, of course it would not be Love. 

God's Son then chose to exercise free will by constructing an illusory environment in which He could experience independence and separation from God and attempt to prove that he had no need of God. 

But, beyond God there is nothing, there is no beyond. And the illusory environment that the Son of God built is illusory, non-existent, a figment, an unreality. Nevertheless, the power of God's Son is immense, and so the illusory environment that he constructed appears both vast and very real, especially when it is populated by an enormous multitude of aspects or separated parts of Himself contained within extremely limiting containers – human bodies. As humans, then, the illusion appears very real, placing very real limits on human abilities, as compared to the limitless creative potential that was given to God's Son at the moment of His creation. 

And, on Earth, human bodies are needy. They need food, shelter, air and water, and if any of those essentials are removed or become unavailable, those bodies cannot survive. And the realization of that is a terrifying state of affairs, which leads to the belief that they need to fight one another constantly in order to obtain enough of the planet's inadequate resources to ensure their own survival. 

But, as I said in the introduction to my book “A Course in Miracles,” “Nothing real can be threatened, nothing unreal exists, herein lies the peace of God.” Truly there is nothing to fear, because you have your eternal existence in infinite joy and safety within the Mind of God. All that seems to threaten you or bring you suffering is unreal and will pass away. 

Focus daily on your true nature, Love, and intend to share and extend It unconditionally to all of humanity without exception, and then enjoy the peace and contentment that that intent brings into your life. Where you see others suffering, no matter who they are or where they are, intend for Love to flow from you to them and relieve it. Many of you are already doing this and it is extremely effective, in fact it is undoing and dissolving the nightmare that seems to envelop so many in preparation for the imminent arrival of a pleasant dream that will lead to your Awakening into Full Consciousness, where you will once more know yourselves as you truly are – Divine Beings at One with God. 

Your true nature can no longer be hidden from you by the deceptive veil of the illusion, because that veil is disintegrating irreparably, as more and more of you open your hearts to the Love that God offers you constantly in every moment of your existence. You know, deep within yourselves, that you are Divine Beings, it is just that as humans you have forgotten because forgetfulness is a powerful limitation that a body takes upon itself upon incarnating, but as the veil dissolves so does forgetfulness. Awareness of your true nature is dawning on more and more of you each day and that awareness is intensifying the effect of the solvent – LOVE – that is dissolving the illusion. 

Therefore, know that you are eternally loved by your heavenly Father, and that because of His infinite Love for you, He has provided the means and the energy that will dissolve the illusion finally and permanently. All will awaken, because it is the Divine Will, and your individual wills are all in alignment with that Will, because, in truth, there is only One Will. 

Your loving brother, Jesus.

Forgetting Love is not possible

Message from Jesus via John Smallman for March 21, 2015 

To experience Oneness is really not that difficult, it is just a question of waiting patiently and allowing it to happen. To allow means that you do not attempt to be in control of the moment, of the situation, you just accept what arises, and if nothing arises do not concern yourself about it because nothing arising is very, very close to Oneness. Oneness is a state of alert attention, a state in which you observe – your feelings, your thoughts, your environment, noises and smells, people or things passing – but do not engage with any of them, so that you are always ready for and aware of the next thing, thought, feeling, or sensation that arises in this now moment, the only moment that has real meaning. 

It is a very peaceful state in which you are simply present, nothing more, and it is extremely healing, because doubts and anxieties do not assail you when you relax into that peaceful state of perfect contentment, needing nothing. Do not be discouraged by the fact that nothing appears to happen, because “what happens” is of the illusion, it is a distraction from being. Oneness is just being, and being is to be open to creation, to be open to Love, because your heart then expands and fills and replenishes itself from that infinite loving space that is all that exists. 

Don’t judge yourself, and do forgive yourself for all the judgments you have ever made. When you are forgiven you know that you are free, but only you can forgive yourself. Another’s forgiveness can be pleasing, satisfying, but the only real forgiveness is your own to yourself. And if you have not forgiven yourself you cannot truly forgive anyone else. There is always a “holding on to” the offense or hurt that you are attempting to forgive. You do not forget it, you just store it away to refer to later in case another offense or hurt occurs, and you call this experience, or even wisdom! 

To not be experiencing Love constantly means that you are immersed in the illusion. The occasions of Love it seems that you experience within it are but brief forays out of it. Love is always unconditionally accepting because It has nothing to forgive. If you hold on to a hurt or a grievance, then resentment grows and you shut out Love, and you can only do that within the illusion because outside the illusion, which is tiny, there is only Love. Anything that is in any way out of harmony with Love is unreal; it does not and cannot exist except within the unreal state that is the illusion. And when you do, because it is the human condition, it is very easy either to forget about love – the weak faint image of real Love that is all that you can experience as a human – or to convince yourself that you do not need it because it really only complicates life . . . until the next time you need to take a breath! 

Forgetting Love, which is burying or denying your need for It, and focusing on living, on getting on with your life, is not possible! It is the life force, life itself as you live it as a human, and therefore you are always conscious of it, even if you are not focusing your attention there. When It ceases or severely weakens, then you notice! Those of you who have had NDEs (near death experiences) remain intensely aware of life, of Love, when you return to your human bodies and to all the limitations they appear to impose upon you. 

Remember, in fact you can hardly forget, that fear is a very noticeable aspect of life in the illusion. This is because separation from God is utterly unnatural, even the thought of it is terrifying in the extreme, and it does seem that you are separated. Thus fear lurks constantly just below your level of conscious awareness, forever ready to come to the surface to fill and freeze your mind and shut you off from Love. As most of your experts in human psychology will confirm, you live daily with the fear of death. Why? Because death appears to be the end, the complete termination of existence. 

No one has ever come back from the dead to prove that there is no such thing, and while life may not be wonderful, to lose consciousness permanently does not in the least appeal to the vast majority of humans. Belief in an afterlife can help, but not if you believe that you could be sent to hell! 

The only hell you will ever experience is one of your own making, which can indeed be horrific and cause great suffering, but it is unreal. Once you truly forgive yourself, you will become aware that hell is unreal, because through self-forgiveness you open yourself to Love and to the realization that as a beloved child of God, Who is infinite Love, you are forever and eternally unconditionally accepted and loved. With the arrival of that realization, hell and any images of hell that you may have formed, will dissolve, dematerialize. 

You have your eternal and uninterrupted existence in Reality, within the infinite field of Divine Love that contains and supports all of God’s creation, and outside of which nothing exists because there is no outside. It truly is extremely simple: you exist, you know you do, because you are conscious, therefore you are always in the Divine Presence. 

This being the case, there is no need for worry or anxiety of any kind, and any that you experience as humans is utterly unreal. However, it seems real as long as you maintain it by focusing your attention on it, and on the illusion that supports the games of separation in which you chose to participate. 

To free yourselves from the illusion, to disentangle yourselves from it, it is most helpful to quieten your mind, to let go of and disengage from the almost constant but often unconscious flow of thoughts passing through it concerning your life in the illusion as humans. It is generally an ongoing flow of worry, anxiety, and fear about your value, your severely limited value as an individual in a vast system that you feel sure hardly notices you, and how to increase that value and be noticed – perhaps by taking another workshop, another seminar, another degree, another job, another lover. It becomes an almost constant state of worrying and wondering about what to do to improve your market value! 

But because you are all Divine Beings, you cannot increase your value in any manner at all. God does nothing by halves; therefore your value is already infinite! 

Your loving brother, Jesus.

The power of Love has been finally recognized by large numbers of humans

Message from Saul via John Smallman for 6 Nov 2014 

As you well know, God is Love, there is nothing else, and so you are all Love and God, you are One. God is . . . no beginning, no end, whereas He created all of you as perfect beings, because all that He creates is by its very nature perfect, and He gave you everything that He had, All That Exists, Love. By doing so, He demonstrated infinite and eternal Love in action, and that is an eternally ongoing state or condition that never changes. You all existed before what your scientists, astronomers, and astrophysicists presently describe as the “Big Bang,” the moment in which they believe the Universe came into being; other theories of its initial appearance are also being considered. The truth remains that before the Big Bang, before the apparent separation from your Source, You are. 

What you experience as a physical environment is an illusion that you collectively constructed to experience separation from the Divine Source that created you in a momentary and insane attempt to prove that you had no need of that Source. But you only succeeded in proving that you do. Without It there would be nothing, which is impossible, but you were able to pretend that you were alone, unencumbered by the loving Source that created you, and maintains you eternally alive and well. Now, in that brief moment, unaware of Him, seemingly unable to see Him or know Him, you experienced fear and the sense that life was short, followed unavoidably by personal termination in death, nothingness, extinction. And that truly is a terrifying thought that you do your absolute best to block or deny. 

However, over the eons, some have become aware that the world of form, that seems so real to you, is in fact utterly illusory, and that awareness has, of late, been spreading like wildfire. Within yourselves, where the radiant Light of God’s Love burns eternally, you absolutely know that you are divine beings, one with Source, but the seductions and enticements of the illusion you have built continue to attract you, to focus almost all of your attention there. You are confused and conflicted . . . BUT the attractions of the illusion are fading very rapidly, because it is becoming more and more apparent that the system that rules it just does not and cannot work; peace, joy, and happiness are not available within it. Yes, momentary happiness is possible, but you are no longer satisfied with that or with the dawning realization that things are never going to get any better. 

As long as Love is shut out, and political expediency and betrayal rule, there are NO solutions to humanity’s ongoing problems. That realization is what is bringing you rapidly towards your awakening. The power of Love has been finally recognized by large numbers of humans, humans who have for eons lived in fear. Yes, to be loving in every situation seems utterly insane, that is in terms of life in the illusion which seems to be fraught with danger in every moment. But many have now started to disregard that fear, to let go of that belief, and are being loving and vulnerable anyhow, and, as a direct result, finding that truly there is nothing to fear. That is the first step on your path to instant awakening, and having taken it, you will never turn back. 

And of course the examples of those forerunners are observed and bring a sense of amazement and wonder to others who could be called the onlookers. If you are not yet behaving lovingly at all times, then you are onlookers, but onlookers who are about to participate, because it is impossible to remain long as non participators when you observe the joy those forerunners are having. Your awakening is assured, because you are already taking a very active part in it. It is your collective will and it is irreversible. 

God is Life, Consciousness, Awareness, Wisdom, Love, and so is every part of His creation, because He is. He is All That Is. There is nothing beyond or outside of Him, therefore you are He, you have just temporarily lost your awareness of this Divine Truth . . . temporarily is also unreal! There is never a moment when you are not One with Him and with all of creation, with all sentient life. All that is missing is your awareness, only nothing is missing, you are just refusing to be aware, which, again, is impossible. 

The human life experience is indeed a strange and unsettling paradox. You each chose to undergo it, to be participants in a collective state of unreality, of non-existence that you made seem extremely real, a place in time and space – both also unreal – where your very existence is constantly under threat of extermination from floods, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, wars, and diseases, to name just a few of your fears. In fact, life, as you experience it, presents you with an endless succession of terrifying possibilities, which you then expend vast quantities of energy and resources trying to prevent from happening. And because you cannot agree among yourselves about the most sensible course of action, and because of the apparent seriousness of the situations that you are faced with, you act unilaterally making your situation worse, and yourselves more fearful. 

Fortunately, you have had enough of this insanity, of this insane nightmare, and have collectively chosen to wake up. It has taken you eons to reach the realization that your environment is unreal, a figment of your powerful and collective imagination that you can dispel whenever you make the collective decision to do so. Here in the spiritual realms, where we are constantly watching over you and offering you guidance and assistance, we are absolutely thrilled that you have finally taken this momentous collective decision. 

There remain a few who would do all in their power to maintain and continue controlling the illusion, and because free will cannot be violated, they will find themselves, for as long as they choose, continuing to maintain an illusion, apparently the same illusion, and continuing to play their sad little games. 

However, their choice will not in any way at all interfere with humanity’s collective choice, its free will choice to awaken. It might seem like the arrival of the biblical prophecy of the last judgment and the separation of the sheep from the goats. But that was only a metaphor to assure those who were loving that they would never be abandoned. In truth, God would never abandon anyone. He created all perfect, and He loves all infinitely and eternally, so He will just allow those who choose to continue playing their games, until they, like the rest of the collective, have had enough. Then they too will awaken into the wonder that is Reality, Heaven, God, your Source, and enjoy the ecstasy of their natural eternal state like everyone else. 

So, while you remain within the illusion for a little longer, as you move into full wakefulness, release all judgment of others and engage fully with Love, intending to share It and send It and its many loving aspects to all who are in any way distressed, because that is God’s Will, and therefore yours too. 

With so very much love, Saul.

Awaken into the Reality that awaits your awakened presence

Message from Saul via John Smallman for 14 Oct 2014 

It is important for humanity, especially you Light bearers and wayshowers, to come to the awareness that there is no order of preference in the spiritual realms; there is no hierarchy, because all are the perfectly created and beloved offspring of God. We may well have different interests, different creative ideas, different areas of responsibility, but in God’s eyes we are all equally perfect Divine Beings, because that is how He created us as part of Him, and He is eternally unchanging, infinitely complete just as He is. 

In the spiritual realms we meet in harmonious cooperation to address issues that interest us or require our attention, but the overarching and all enveloping energy field in which we exist and operate is God’s field of infinite Divine Love. Intelligence, wisdom, compassion, healing, acceptance, forgiveness, and reconciliation are all inseparable aspects of Love that often seem to be separate when experienced by souls undergoing the human drama. However, many of you have discovered (and many more of you soon will), that when you surrender to Love, when you let go of reasoning and attempting to understand others, and instead just allow yourselves to love them unconditionally, you become aware that in truth there is only Love, as we never tire of reminding you. 

The vast majority of problems in human relationships, from individuals to nations, are as a direct result of egoic self-interested agendas that can only lead to mistrust and eventual betrayal. As long as one wants to do better than another, problems arise. There is nothing wrong with wanting to do better, to improve yourself, but when it becomes competitive, it always leads to conflict. And as all are in truth One, conflict of any kind is obviously insane. 

So, the Tsunami of Love continues to flow around you, through you, to totally envelop you, waiting patiently and compassionately for you to accept It, as eventually everyone will. But there is no pressure being applied, It is infinitely gentle and infinitely patient, because It knows that you will accept it and enter into a state of total joy when you do so. It just continues to intensify, and will continue to do so, until all awaken. Is that not a most liberating and uplifting thought? 

As you well know, having been told so often that it probably hurts, time is illusory, all is now, but within the illusion it seems to have been around for a very long time! And as long as you resist Love, your natural and eternal state, and continue to compete with and judge one another, so long will the illusion exist and seemingly contain you. The illusion is the only place in which that which is not Love can exist, and of course there is no such place. And this makes it extremely confusing for you, as you go about your daily lives, coping with issues, problems, pain, suffering, conflict and betrayal that seem very real indeed. 

Here in the spiritual realms, we expect and anticipate your awakening with great joy, because we know that it is inevitable, and that it is now! So, while we have great compassion for the suffering you appear to be undergoing, and which seems so real and painful to you, we always see the big picture, the Divine Picture in which there is only total joy and total Love. 

We assist you by being present for you, available to you in every moment to hug you, to give you a “love-squeeze,” and to constantly reassure you that all is truly well. You all know that when you relax into that quiet inner space, your holy sanctuary, and just allow the present moment to be, while inviting us (whoever you feel or intuit is your own personal contact person in the spiritual realms) to be with you and offer you guidance and comfort, you feel very much better almost instantly. 

We can see and feel the upliftment of your spirit when you open to us, and that is most wonderful, because it demonstrates Love in action to us again and again, the Oneness that we all share with our Divine Father. Or, Father/Mother/God for those of you who have trouble with words that seem exclusionary or divisive. Just remember that all words are divisive, confusing, inadequate, because they are merely very poor symbols that are intended to point to God, Who is infinitely beyond words, beyond description, and can only be experienced. And that magnificent experience awaits you when you embrace and offer unconditional love in every relationship and thus allow the illusion to dissipate, as it will. 

Your onward progress towards awakening is powering forwards creating great waves of Love in the ocean of Love that envelops you. You have an expression “Are fish aware of the water?” And of course the answer is “No, unless they are removed from it.” The illusion was built to allow you to remove yourselves from the ocean of Love, but of course it is impossible to remove yourselves from that which permanently and eternally contains you, as there is nowhere else. The illusion is illusory, but its purpose remains, as long as you support it, and that purpose is for you to experience a state of existence without Love. 

For many of you that state seems to have been achieved. In the restricted and limited state of consciousness provided by your human vehicle, you frequently feel unloved and unlovable, and that is a very unsettling and disturbing experience. The awakening process has been ongoing since the moment of your apparent separation from God, and during those eons many reasons for the unsatisfactory nature of life on earth have been considered, and many attempts have been made to contact a god, a higher intelligence, a supreme being who, if suitably kowtowed to, might condescend to hear your prayers and your cries for help, and then possibly intervene to mitigate your pain and suffering, even imposing that suffering on someone else, your enemies. Hence sacrifices to this unknown and terrifying entity. 

Now you have psychology and psychotherapy to help you release yourselves from suffering, and it does help, a little. It too uses reason to help you – who abused you, and why – and offers suggestions and support groups where you can go and tell your painful stories to sympathetic listeners who have had similar or worse experiences. Again, this is helpful, but the real issue is constantly avoided, because most cannot see it, and that is that Love is All. There is nothing else. When someone does become aware of this one truth and engages with it, healing of a most magnificent kind occurs. 

So, as always, the message from the spiritual realms, from Heaven, from God is “There is only Love.” Accept this divine truth, embrace, share, and extend it, and awaken into the Reality that awaits your awakened presence where you will find only eternal joy. 

With so very much love, Saul.
