Love always forgives errors

Message from Saul via John Smallman for 7 February 2016 

Humanity is at the tipping point. That is the point at which the balance between negative and positive, or more realistically between fear and Love, reverses. For eons, humanity has lived in fear, which is effectively a screen of egoic self-fascination that blocks the Light of Love. Love is the infinite energy field of creation in which everything ever created or to be created has its eternal existence, there is nowhere else! Fear is just a veil that you have hung between you and that infinite Light, placing yourselves in shadow. To be in the shadow is fearful, because the Light is God, Life, and His loving embrace without which nothing can exist even for a moment. When you are in fear, in the shade, in the dark, you imagine monsters that might attack and kill you, and your imagination is very powerful. You believe in the darkness, the lack of Light, even though it is unreal, and so you build defenses to protect yourselves, thus adding to the darkness and to your sense of fear. 

Separating yourselves from Source meant slipping beneath the imaginary veil and losing sight of Reality. Since that moment, you have been trying to find your way back. But you felt guilty for separating from Source and feared that you would not be permitted to return. You then established many authoritarian bodies which concocted numerous rituals to placate and appease God, Who you believed you had most seriously offended. 

But God is Love and Love cannot be offended. Love gives of Itself limitlessly, eternally, and unconditionally, that is Its nature, and because you are also Love – remember, That is all there is! – so, do you. However, the veil has hidden from you the Truth, the Light, the Love that is God. And because you yourselves caused the apparent separation from your Source, you are filled with guilt and fear. 

God knew that would happen when you chose to experience separation from Him, and so instantly He provided the way Home. The way Home is your unbreakable connection to God through the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is the quiet inner voice, the intuitive sense that makes wise counseling suggestions to you when you are quiet and open to them, suggestions about how to deal with issues that concern you or loved ones, or even how to respond appropriately to someone during a conversation. 

The Holy Spirit is always with you ready to offer guidance. However, you often disregard or dismiss the suggestions you receive from Him, because they do not align with those that your egos offer, which often appear more attractive in the moment, because it seems that they will bring you personal benefits – for instance, the satisfaction derived from making someone wrong or winning an argument – but later you may regret making that choice when you find it has caused damage to a relationship. 

The Holy Spirit always counsels you to love, to accept, and to forgive others whatever the situation, because all are One and what you do to others you are doing to yourselves. If you feel loved, accepted, and forgiven it makes you happy. God’s Will for you is eternal happiness, and the Holy Spirit is your personal communication with Him. His counsel always guides you toward peace and happiness, but your egos enjoy conflicts and so direct you towards them. If you follow the Holy Spirit’s guidance, it will bring you peace and contentment. If you follow the ego’s guidance, stress, fear, and disappointment arise. 

Frequently, you follow the ego’s guidance, because you feel less than adequate, of little significance, or fearful, feelings the ego heartily encourages, and you think that “standing up for yourselves” by attacking others or by defending yourselves against them is something your honor demands. 

Truly, another’s opinion of you is meaningless. What matters is your own honest opinion of yourselves in which you admit to your faults and errors as well as to your kindness and generosity. Then, having looked at yourselves fairly and honestly, completely forgive yourselves for any thoughts, words, or actions that you have taken that you judge to have been unloving. As a human, it is impossible for you not to make mistakes. It is through the mistakes that you make that you learn and grow spiritually. 

Most human cultures frequently make children wrong instead of lovingly showing them that they have made mistakes and then showing them how to correct them. As a result, you grow up in fear of making mistakes, but you nevertheless continue to make them and then attempt to disown them or blame them on others. (You see small children doing this frequently!) This is very stressful. 

Now, as adults, you are in a position to reflect on your lives so far, and in doing so, you can see that yes, you were unfairly treated, but so was everyone else, especially including your parents and elders and betters! Realizing that, you can see the inevitability of a person’s need to blame and shame others in order to distract him from awareness of his own shameful mistakes by disowning them, or projecting them on to others. 

Seeing that everyone is struggling with similar issues of self-worth and self-esteem, you can start to forgive, first yourselves, then others. When you truly forgive an error, as opposed to making a reluctant acceptance of it while still placing blame, you will find yourselves feeling more at peace and less driven to judge or blame either yourselves or others. Then awareness will arise that you enjoy letting go of judgment and blame, because loving and forgiving brings you satisfaction and self-acceptance that is not disturbed even when you make mistakes, and you find that you can forgive yourselves immediately. 

It is amazingly freeing to admit to yourselves that you have made mistakes, because denying or justifying them takes enormous amounts of your energy, leaving you drained, depressed, and experiencing a powerful lack of self-worth. There is also great fear that your mistakes will be discovered – it probably happened frequently during your childhood – and you will be shamed. Any attempt to shame someone, even if satisfying in the moment, will return to haunt you either when you yourselves are shamed, or through guilt when you realize, as eventually you will, how unloving it is. 

If someone errs and it really matters to you, then gently and quietly draw it to his attention and if possible offer to assist him in correcting it. That is loving behavior that can turn enemies into friends, and it will bring you a well-earned awareness of your own good and loving nature. Awareness of your own natural goodness provides you with fresh energy and the motivation to continue operating from your divine center where goodness resides. 

You each have the power to change the world by changing yourselves, and many are now doing this by making the daily intention to be only loving. Sometimes they fail, but quickly they realize and renew their intent, as they forgive themselves for any momentary failures. 

The main lessons that are presented to you throughout your earthly lives are that mistakes are made and need to be forgiven. If you choose not to forgive, you will become eaten up with resentment and bitterness, and then it will appear to you that you are being treated unfairly and so you will tend to lash out at others which will further intensify those feelings. 

Love always forgives errors. In fact, It overlooks them, because they are unreal, just part of the illusion. Only Love is Real!  And in that Divine Truth, you should rejoice! Only Love is Real, you are each Love – presently incarnate on Earth as humans – and Love is infinitely Self-loving. It is God, the Source, eternally loving Its Creation, that is Itself and every one of you without exception. 



With so very much love, Saul.

Communicating with your Higher Self

© Sylvia Shanti Vowless QSM 

How can I develop communication with my Higher Self? How can I receive Its inner guidance? How do I discern whether or not my connection is truly from the God-Self level and not just my ego’s self-talk? These are among the questions I have most frequently been asked in my thirty-plus years' worldwide service as an international spiritual teacher. Why? Because people serious about their spiritual advancement and service are becoming aware that this highest kind of communication and guidance is available to every person. For centuries we’ve been told by churches and gurus that we cannot commune directly with the Divine, but must rely upon intermediaries instead. Even today, many still have the feeling that they’re not good or ‘advanced’ enough to make their own reliable connection, or that it’s better to rely upon other people who are perceived to have the necessary psychic or channeling abilities. 

Now, in this time of great change of humanity’s accelerated evolution, anyone who desires to tap into the wisdom of their Higher God-Self (also known as your I AM Presence) can learn to do so, no exceptions. This Superconscious Mind connection is innate in every person, so learning to invite and allow this inner knowing to come into your conscious mind is simply a choice you can make at any time. There are only two requirements: to know, not just believe that this is your birthright, and to accept that the Holy Spirit - the Divine Presence and communicator within or what the scriptures call “the still small voice of God” - is always available to you even though you may not be aware of it yet.  More powerful and encompassing than simple intuition, it will never lead you astray. 

However, just as one has to develop an unused or lazy muscle, it may take some practice to develop! But the good news is that it’s easier now than ever before. The energies of this century which Masters and sages have prophesied as the beginning of the long-awaited Age of the Holy Spirit, are helping humanity reclaim our inner power and mastery. 

Here are a few guidelines to help you get started - or strengthen your connection. But always remember that very rarely do people hear a voice! Real Divine communication usually comes as a deep “knowing,” a flash of inspired understanding or revelation, or sometimes a ‘downloading’ of awesome, enlightening spiritual information. And remember that guidance from your Higher Self is for you, not others. 

1.  Ask your Higher Self/'I AM' Presence to take charge of this process to ensure that you only connect with Its inner communicator, the Holy Spirit.  A powerful aid is the Decree and Invocation (at the end of this article) given some decades ago by the Ascended Master St Germain to help us with this most important step of mastery in our spiritual maturing and to help raise our energy frequencies. It’s most effective when used every morning at the beginning of your meditation and before asking any question, as it ensures that you won’t link in with spiritually unevolved astral or ET entities. 

2. Learn how to go into a deep meditative Alpha state and practice this daily. When your brain waves slow to Alpha state, you’re able to transcend your everyday thinking, self-talk and concerns that jam your inner 'lines of higher communication.' With practice, this inner stillness enables you to clear the static or interference and activate your receptive abilities.  Techniques like beginning with deep breathing, chanting, or sublime music can greatly help this process.  You will know you’re succeeding, when you start experiencing periods of profound peace or bliss, and when you are unaware of time and even of your body. 

3. A good way to encourage the development of your inner reception is to contemplate some deep spiritual concepts that you'd like to expand your knowledge about or understand, or to ask a question concerning spiritual matters. This higher communication is to help us become spiritually mature - not for asking such ordinary everyday questions as what socks to buy or what to do in mundane matters which are of no lasting consequence!  These things according to the Masters are our responsibility. 

4. If you have the slightest doubt or uncertainty just wait and ask again later. The Golden Rule is to ask, ask and ask again! Ask for confirmation and you will be led to reliable sources. Ask for more details. Using the list below will help you discern if your communication is from the highest level. You can ask for guidance concerning important life-changing or service issues, once you feel confident that your connection is strong and clear enough. 


Discernment is essential especially now during these times of increased interference from lower astral plane and galactic entities, so to test the source level and authenticity, always ask the following questions: 

i) Is the communication or information loving, gentle, compassionate? Connection with your Higher Self/Holy Spirit is never ‘loud’, hurried, angry, judgmental. Ego self-talk, however, can be any of these and often comes in very quickly with an answer or direction. 

ii) Does it leave you with a sense of total peace and calm? Is it freeing, positive, credible, helpful? It will never generate fear, panic, worry, urgency or anxiety. This means it will never be phenomenon-         based such as negative ET’s or spaceships are coming to take over, earthquakes/tsunamis are going to wipe out most of the population, etc. In particular, it will never give an actual date. This is because time is ‘elastic.’ 

iii) Is it empowering and uplifting, leaving you with a sense of absolute rightness, certainty and joy? 

iv) Does it leave you feeling loved, strong, secure and protected?  It will never suggest for example, you have dark energy around you, implants or the like. 

v) Does information received apply not only to your own understanding and growth, but gives spiritual principles and laws? Higher information can be applied to everyone, is always for the highest good of all and emphasizes our oneness. 

vi) In answer to personal questions …….. Does it suggest ways of seeing things, so you can arrive at your own solution or answer?  Higher guidance never tells you what to do, as this would be taking your power and free choice away. I have often found that my question is answered with another question that immediately makes the answer obvious! 

vii) Does it address your soul progress, which is the reason for each life experience? Your Higher Self never appeals to your ego by suggesting, for example, you’re the only one being given this information – you will have a special mission, special powers or fame and fortune – you’re a master, ascended, or of high spiritual status etc.  If the last was true, would you still need to be here?  Richard Bach explains this perfectly in his book “Illusion” …….. 

“Here is a test to find whether your mission on earth is finished: If you’re alive, it isn’t.” 



DIVINE I AM DECREE 

& INVOCATION OF INTENTION & PROTECTION 

Received from Ascended Master Rakoczi/St Germain 

I AM 

I AM all that I AM 

I AM one with the Infinite Mind 

I AM one with the Source of all life 

I AM one with all life forms and they are one with me 

I AM LOVE   -   I AM LIGHT   -   I AM PEACE   -   I AM 

In that which I AM, I invoke only the Light from the Masters and Teachers of the Higher Mental and Spiritual planes and beyond, and I refuse all communication which originates on the Astral Plane or is not working with the Will of God.    I  AM.

God is within you at all times, waiting for you to ask for His guidance

Message from Saul for 3 October 2012 through John Smallman 

Never before in your human history has such an intense and powerful wave of Divine Love embraced you as is now the case. Its influence is being felt everywhere, and the results of that influence are changing hearts and minds in increasing numbers every day. 

For eons you have been seeking, seemingly with little success, the Divine, God, the Supreme Intelligence that created you.  Religions have been established all over the world, supposedly to assist you in your search, and many of them then laid down dogmas and beliefs that supplicants wishing to become members of these organizations had to accept unquestioningly. 

As these organizations became established and politically powerful, power became their reason for existing, and so it became necessary to disparage other religions as wrong, heretical, and offensive to the gods they had invented. This naturally led to wars – just wars to crush those they judged as infidels and pagans – which they hoped to win and thereby increase their power and influence in the world. 

Wars can never be justified, let alone just! For far too long you have allowed yourselves to be persuaded that this is not the case, and then watched or taken part as millions were wounded or killed in insane conflicts between power hungry and arrogant adversaries. It was thought to be honorable to die for a ‘just’ cause, and many rushed to do just that! But the causes over which you have been fighting almost interminably have never been honorable, even though the Emperors, Kings, Princes, Popes, Barons, and Presidents (political and corporate) who ruled you have insisted otherwise. They never revealed to you the real reasons for the wars in which they were demanding that you took part or supported. 

There have always been disagreements between humans, and those who would rule and control you frequently chose to take great offense, when they were disagreed with. But it has been your support for them that has enabled them to engage in wars to punish those who offended them, and you have always been the losers in these diverse and ferocious military expeditions. And even the apparent winners gain next to nothing except in the short term. 

The enormous growth in awareness among you over the last few decades of the insanity of your present system for resolving disputes on any level, is a tremendous blessing that has been partially brought about by the vast media coverage devoted to these issues, which has also presented you with the knowledge of the intense and totally unnecessary suffering gratuitously imposed on those unfortunate enough to dwell within the areas of conflict – unavoidable ‘collateral damage’. . . sorry! 

The wisdom of the saying “When you are in a hole don’t keep digging” is at last finding acceptance all over the world, and people are learning to offer wisdom and compassion to those in the holes instead of burying the diggers as they refill those holes. Because you are all one, issues cannot be resolved by burying or refusing to communicate with those whom you disagree with. Resolution is brought about by listening to one another patiently and compassionately, understanding fully what the issues are, and working together willingly until everyone’s needs have been addressed and resolved. And humanity is now doing this on a scale never before seen, let alone imagined to be possible. 

The presence of the intense wave of Divine Love now embracing humanity is the result of the choice made by so many of you to change your ways, as you began to realize that God is within you at all times, not outside in some otherworldly heavenly domain. He is always there, waiting for you to ask for His Guidance and assistance with every aspect of your daily lives. And He always responds to you, either directly through the Holy Spirit, or through one of the Angels or Saints to whom you address your requests. 

As you can see from the many wonderful changes that are occurring, the Love Wave is very effective. Focus on making it part of your inner lives at all times, if you have not already done so, because each one of you who does, further intensifies it and increases its effectiveness – in ways that you can scarcely imagine – as it constantly helps you along on your path to awakening. 

With so very much love, Saul.
