Trust can only happen when you choose to trust another

A Message from Saul by John Smallman, 31 January 2015 

Humanity’s journey through the illusion has been long and painful as you have failed to recognize one another as siblings, as beloved children of God, and instead have engaged with each other in conflict, war, and deceitful practices, due to the fear your apparent separation from God unleashed. For eons you have seen each other as threats and enemies whom you needed to attack or defend yourselves against, and the suffering you have experienced as a result of this enormous misperception has been most painful for you. Now this misperception is dissolving, because so many of you have come to the understanding, through the painful experiences that you have undergone again and again and again, that this kind of behavior can never bring you the peace you are so urgently seeking. 

You still lack trust, and so, rather than loving one another – which is what you will do as the Love field enveloping you penetrates the hearts of even the most fear-driven among you – you are attempting to negotiate non violently to find a path to peace on Earth. This is in fact an enormously progressive step forwards for humanity, because until very recently most believed that the only way to achieve any form of peace was through force of arms and firm suppression of those who could or might attack you. Peace through violence – what an oxymoron! 

Since you started to practice negotiating non violently, it is becoming apparent to all involved that trust has to be established and clearly demonstrated, with absolutely no “wiggle room,” if your negotiations are to have any chance of success. And for many this is a difficult concept to grasp, because trust has been betrayed as a matter of course for eons, when those doing the betraying found themselves in positions of power over the betrayed and “wisely” took advantage of the situation. To trust was seen to be naïve and childish, a laying open of oneself to violation, an invitation to betrayal, something that even small children soon learnt was a very dangerous opportunity to offer to anyone. 

Now, with the Tsunami of Love firmly established on Earth as the environment in which everything happens, and spreading Its influence ever more widely, people are becoming aware of the actuality that the only way to achieve lasting peace on Earth is through trust. Not an enforcement of trust through, for instance, satellite monitoring and military supervision, but just simple unadorned trust that all honor and practice, because it is your nature as children of God. 

In personal relationships, many have been learning to trust one another more and more fully over the last three or four decades, as limitations on the numbers of subjects open for discussion have been falling away, and the resultant openness and honesty have been shown not only to work, but also to uplift and inspire those relationships. That is the effect of Love (capital L), the divine energy field in which all that exists is eternally present, flowing smoothly, abundantly, and pervasively within those relationships without restrictions or blocks of any kind. When Love flows freely like that, joy is the result. In your natural state, embraced by and at home in the ever-present Presence of God’s Love for you, joy is constant. 

Within the illusion, as you struggle with the issues that plague humanity, the apparent lack of your most basic needs – love, acceptance, and recognition – drive you to seek them almost constantly through ego-driven thoughts, words, and actions. You assess others and decide whether or not they can provide for any of those needs, thus making the effort required on your part in getting to know them and have them interact with you worthwhile or not. You are forever looking for a “return on your investment,” and this attitude leads not to trust but to suspicion, the destroyer of trust. 

All are one, there is no separation, it just appears that way, and so lack of trust and betrayal of trust deeply affect everyone involved; there is no escape from lack of trust, because it builds on itself. And so does trust, so do not be misled into thinking that you can beat the system, you always experience what you offer and what you expect to receive. 

Trust can only happen when you choose to trust another and they respond with honesty and integrity. This is the moment on Earth when all the necessary energies are in place to enable you to engage with others with love and with trust and so move forwards and continue on your path of spiritual evolution which is the path out of the illusion. If you pay attention, you will become aware that betrayal, conflict, and war are not the only games on offer. 

All over the world people are waking up to the knowledge that separation is unreal, an impossible state of being, because physical form as you have imagined it is unreal. There is only pure energy, and that energy is Love. But it is a little like electricity, because its use is determined by the user – each one of you using your God-given free will – and is either beneficial to all or damaging to all. 

The simplest analogy is to think of your electrical grids and power systems on Earth. The major ones are either 240 volt or 110 volt alternating current systems. If you provide power from the higher voltage to an appliance built for the lower voltage it will be destroyed. You can think of your individual free wills as multi-voltage systems that can adapt via transformers to power any appliance, but if two of you try to power the same appliance – any kind of relationship – at the same moment, unless you have adjusted your frequencies to be in harmony, then the results can be and often are quite disastrous. 

Trust, honor, respect, acceptance, compassion, and understanding (to name just a few) can come into harmonious alignment; distrust, betrayal, fear, and conflict cannot. The former are all aspects of the divine energy field of Love in which all is contained; the latter are all of the illusion, but because of your belief in it, they can appear very real and can cause you untold pain and suffering. 

The time has come for you to release your tight grip on the illusion, a grip or sharpness of imagery that makes it appear very real, and focus on engaging fully with the field of Love that contains and supports you in every moment. When you do this, stress and anxiety will fall away making room for peace, and the Love that powers and maintains it, to fill your hearts. With peace firmly established there, at the center of your being, you will find yourselves knowing that trust is the way forwards, giving yourselves the courage to offer it and to receive it, as you change the world into the New World for which all have been hoping and praying, just by returning yourselves to an awareness of your true and unchangeable nature and then operating through that state. You are all Love incarnate, and your awareness of that divine truth can no longer remain buried or denied. 

With so very much love, Saul.

If you are having difficulty with forgiveness ask for help and for clarity

A Message from Saul via John Smallman for 25 April 2014 

To leave the illusion behind is humanity's divine destiny, because humanity's destiny is divine. It has ensnared, enslaved, and entranced you all for far too long and your unwillingness to release yourselves from it is all that holds you within it. You have the power and the capability to do so, because you are divine beings, and, because it is your will and God's, you will release yourselves. 

Nevertheless, you are conflicted within yourselves by the intriguing but fanciful opportunities with which it tempts you, and by your desire to find the real meaning in life, a meaning that overwhelms and shatters the unreal dreams that seem to be your constant companions – wealth, security, a lover, and a beautiful environment in which to enjoy them. But the dreams seem so real! This is because you are very powerful beings, and you have made them seem very real, so real that they hid and continue to hide Reality from you, as was your original intent. Hence this intense inner conflict and your endless confusion. 

However, your Divine Father knew that your infatuation with your unreal environment would not last, and that it would bring you untold pain and suffering. So He, at the moment that you built it by imagining it within your brilliant mind, instantly provided everything you need to release yourselves from it and return Home. What He provided was the inextinguishable inner flame of His Love that calls to you constantly to awaken. 

It is that inner flame that has you questioning the meaning of life and which also makes it very apparent that the meaning that you have been seeking – security, survival, wealth, and power over others – is insane, not only because of its divisive nature, but also because you are seeking for it within the illusion. And that insanity terrifies you, everyone is untrustworthy! Therefore, you must constantly protect yourselves, so you build armies and weapons that you then are unable to resist using, further adding to your pain and suffering. 

However, you have become exhausted by the trials and tribulations with which the illusion endlessly presents you, and you are becoming aware, more and more of you daily, that the only way to resolve your issues, your differences, your conflicts is through intelligent and harmonious cooperation. When you do that, you listen to one another without judgment, allowing each to be themselves instead of attempting to change them into the kind of person you think – in your almost total lack of wisdom – that they should be. Then realization dawns that truly there are no differences, you all want only “the peace that passeth all understanding.” And that of course is Love, the Divine Energy Field in which all of creation has its eternal existence. 

It is a state from which you have never departed, because there is nowhere else, but you have imagined and clung tenaciously to an illusory state, and you are now in the process of releasing your hold on it, of allowing yourselves to see that it is unreal, a sham. You have a saying: “If it seems too good to be true, then it probably is.” Throughout the eons of the illusion's enticing siren song to you, you have been chasing within it for something that has seemed too good to be true – safety, security, abundance, and bliss – but how could that possibly be found within an illusion, especially one in which betrayal and deceit are endemic? 

Forgiveness is the way out – of yourselves for being so misled and misguided by it, and of others for their apparent betrayals of you. In Reality there is only Love, and anything in conflict with or opposition to It is unreal. However, you do need to forgive. One of your wise elder statesmen (Nelson Mandela) remarked that resentment is like drinking poison and hoping it will kill your enemies. So, until you start forgiving and releasing any judgments or resentments, you are just consuming poison and making yourselves truly miserable, possibly even making yourselves extremely ill. And, as most of you are probably well aware, modern psychology suggests that to be able to forgive is essential for your general health and well-being. 

If you are having difficulty with forgiveness, due to pain inflicted upon you, unjust judgments made against you, or for any other reason, then when you enter your quiet inner space ask for help and for clarity. Frequently clarity is lacking in one's perceptions, when a desire to withhold or refuse forgiveness is experienced. Remember, all the experiences undergone in your physical bodies are aspects of the illusion; the suffering that is undergone is illusory, because you are all asleep and dreaming. When you awaken into Reality, all pain, all suffering, all injustice, all betrayal will have dissolved, because they are part of that illusory dream. Clarity will show you this now by reminding you of your true nature – you are a being of Love who is One with God – and you will be able to relax into forgiveness, whereupon you will find an inner peace that maybe you have never before experienced or have long since forgotten. 

In the spiritual realms we are constantly at your service, you have only to call on us with sincerity and we will show you the way to embrace forgiveness with love and compassion for the one you wish or need to forgive – yourself or others – thus leading you into a state where the stress of resentment that was confining and controlling you just dissolves. We are here for you in every moment, and we want only to see you awaken into the eternal joy that is your natural state. We know that forgiveness is the quickest way for you to release your hold on the illusion because it cuts through all the other ties and bindings so that there is nothing else to prevent you from sinking happily into God's loving Embrace. 

So, call on us and tell us that you sincerely want to embrace forgiveness, and instantly you will feel the warmth and acceptance of the field of Love that at all times envelops you. It will confirm for you that you are indeed a being of Love who was momentarily lost in the fog of the illusion, a fog that is now dispersing and allowing you glimpses of the brilliance that awaits your inevitable awakening. 

With so very much love, Saul. 

Everyone you chose to meet on your lifepath will appear at exactly the right moment

Message from Jesus by John Smallman for 2 September 2013 

Much attention is being focused on the troubling situation in the Middle East, and this is understandable because your compassion flows to those who are suffering there. But do not forget to focus also on being Love in action all day every day, while not judging those whom you think are causing those problems, because in truth they too are suffering and are equally deserving of your love and compassion. Only a constant flow of Love can resolve that situation, and you who are reading this chose to be incarnate on Earth at this time so, that you could send your love to those who are suffering anywhere on Earth due to military conflicts, or for any other reason. 

Suffering is an enormously powerful distraction that tends to draw you deeper into the illusion. It can lead you to forget to make your daily intent to be Love in action, while those involved in conflicts are frequently so distracted by their own suffering and that of loved ones that they find it almost impossible to enter their quiet inner space even for a moment, where they can access the spiritual help they so dearly need. Your intent to send love to those who are suffering is very effective and does help them to experience brief moments of peace despite the intense distractions of their unhappy environment. 

As you know, the Divine Energy Field in which everything has its eternal existence is composed of Love. Therefore, everything that exists is composed of Love. The limitations that are the characteristics of the illusion are the result of attempting to live without Love, separated from It. The power of Love is infinite, and by entering the illusion and attempting to separate yourselves from your Divine Source, you effectively reduced the power, the life force available to you enormously. Using electricity as an analogy, it is as though all the immense power flowing out of an earth-based electrical power station was available to you, but you chose to reduce it to the level at which it would barely light a lamp. That is why it is in your best interests to wake up. When you do so, you will cease to reduce the power level of the Love that flows through you constantly, and without which you would not and could not exist, but will allow It to flow without restriction of any kind, and you will then know yourselves as you truly are: beings of immense influence. . . of immense Light. 

Awake and fully conscious, you could not even conceive of the way of life that you are experiencing in the illusion. It is truly beyond understanding, and yet you cling to it in fear, unable to conceive of life without it, with many believing that life ends permanently with the laying down of their human bodies. Nothing that God creates dies. Death is an illusory concept. . . merely a move forwards, a progression to a state of being that is way beyond your present severely limited experience of what life means. It is not to be feared. 

The time at which a human lays down her body is not random. Accidents and illness are experiences on the lifepath that you planned, and everything that happens to you is part of your own personal plan. That is not apparent to you while embodied, although some of you are rather good at getting an intuitive sense of what your future path entails. The thing to be aware of is that you are each on the path home to Reality: the state in which Love fills you with the infinite power and joy in which you were created, and of which you are fully and eternally aware. 

You are all destined for eternal joy in the eternal Presence of God, the loving Source of all creation, and your homeward paths have been uniquely and individually tailored for you to encounter precisely the experiences and lessons that you chose, before you incarnated, to undergo. Nothing that happens to you is by chance, although you may well feel that some of your experiences just had to be accidental, because you cannot imagine any other cause. However, once you accept that nothing that happens to you is a chance occurrence, it becomes much easier for you to see and learn the lessons with which your lives present you. And when this happens, you will find life flows more easily for you with far less stress. This is because you have effectively made the choice to accept the situations that arise, instead of fighting against them and blaming others – or God! – for any misfortunes that befall you. 

Wherever it is that you are experiencing life on planet Earth, it is where you chose to be for the lessons that you elected to experience and learn. Where you were born, to whom, and where you live are no more chance occurrences than any other events that “happen” to you. It is impossible for you to understand these reasons, while you remain on Earth as humans, and utterly impossible for you to make sense of another’s lifepath. You have no need to. 

If you meet or become aware of someone whom you could help, then do so; it will be one of your lessons. But you do not need to go seeking out people to help. You may certainly choose to do so, but everyone you chose to meet on your human lifepath – for the lessons that you could learn together or teach each other – will appear at exactly the right moment. Your lifepaths will always unfold just as planned; the fact that they may displease or delight you does not alter that fact. 

Pay attention to each moment by living in the now as consistently as you can. Doing that is the most effective way to follow your paths and learn your lessons with the minimum of discomfort. When you created your lifepaths you built into them all kinds of allowances to enable you to provide for the myriad choices within each and every situation that comes up. Think of all the choices you make, moment by moment, choices you could not foresee, and from which you had to therefore provide alternative routes forward. To proceed most efficaciously, trust the path that opens before you and proceed lovingly and compassionately along it. It is the most direct way Home. 

Your loving brother, Jesus.

Your myriad rules and regulations were established mostly for the sole benefit of those in positions of influence

Message from Saul via John Smallman for 19 June 2013

The divine energy field in which you are always enveloped is having an ever-increasing effect on humanity as the moment for your Grand Awakening approaches.  And it will be a Grand Awakening!  You have all worked extremely hard to bring it to fruition, and the results will most certainly not disappoint you – disappointment is of the illusion. 

Disappointment has been endemic, practically a contagion on Earth for eons, as individuals have mainly lived lives in which their prime concern has been their own survival.  They have grouped together from time to time to help one another when disaster or catastrophe occurred or threatened, but only then.  Otherwise, you focused almost exclusively on ensuring your individual survival, because of the nearly constant state of anxiety or fear that your apparently separated or individual state caused you.  And that is why disappointments were so frequently experienced. 

All Are One.  Attempting to live as though this were not the case has caused enormous suffering – suffering that was unnecessary – as you fought and tortured one another psychologically and physically, believing it to be necessary for your own personal survival.  And it did often seem that those who did not follow those “self-evident laws of survival” suffered the most.  You even came up with a proverb to justify that way of living, namely: “god helps those who help themselves.”  Those in poverty or who had troubles in their lives – sickness, injury, relationship problems, financial problems – were then judged to be inadequate, and were often seen as being appropriately judged and punished by god.  You were each on your own, and may the good Lord help you! 

Even in tribal societies, where it seemed that each had their place and the sense of security that that provided, conflicts frequently occurred with other tribes.  Nowhere in the illusion was it possible to avoid or escape from the need to conform and belong.  Those who attempted to live by standards that were not approved by the majority were ostracized and cast out.  However, since the age of enlightenment things have been slowly changing as scientific methods enabled new ideas to be formulated and new inventions to be constructed that changed forever the way in which people thought.  A backlash against the endemic corruption in political and religious organizations led to an opening to the idea that reform was possible and to be desired.  Since then slavery, the suppression of the rights of women, of minority races and ethnicities, and the condemnation of life styles that were not “mainstream” have all been officially banned. 

Although persecution or ostracization of various groups still continues, awareness that it is not in alignment with God’s Love for any of His children to be so dismally treated is growing, and there are many groups, organizations, and charities working tirelessly to ensure that these unloving attitudes and behaviors are brought to an end through education and the physical protection of those who are endangered by them.  Truly, the spiritual progress, the spiritual evolution that humanity has been undergoing during the last few hundred years has produced some amazing and inspiring results, and that progress, that evolution is developing exponentially.  It is but the beginning of a series of the most magnificent spiritual attitudinal changes in awareness that will bring lasting peace and joy to all of humanity. 

The inflexible and unquestioned beliefs by which so many have lived for so long are finally being discarded.  They were based on judgment, judgment by men of other men, men who had neither the wisdom nor the knowledge to judge anyone.  However, judgment proved very useful to those who sought and obtained power and authority over others, because it enabled them to lay down systems of law and regulation through which they were able to direct and control people and further their own personal agendas. 

Those of the old order, those who have inherited titles or wealth or who have aligned themselves with them, are losing their power and control as it just dissolves or slips from their grasp while they continue to cling desperately to the few shreds that remain. In the illusion, power, authority, and control are dependent on mass support from the people, and that support is being persistently and irretrievably withdrawn. 

People today are seriously and intensely questioning authority and refusing to accept authoritative statements from the authorities justifying that authority (the maxim “Question all authority” is, in relation to humanity’s period of existence on Earth, an extremely new and still very controversial assertion). 

As Love spreads Its influence far and wide, people increasingly start to behave in a manner that is in alignment with It, and consequently, the myriad rules and regulations governing your lives and to which you have grown accustomed become almost completely unnecessary.  It has, in fact, become stunningly apparent that those myriad rules and regulations were established mostly for the sole benefit of those in positions of influence who are driven by their own egoic personal agendas.  Those who hold powerful offices and who abused that power and caused your recent economic woes have basically been absolved from their responsibilities.  While those whom they misled have lost out heavily, been judged as dumb or stupid for allowing themselves to be so misled, and have, as you well know, even ended up homeless. 

And your pundits and “wise men” continue to try to persuade you that this is how the world works, that this is how it is supposed to work, and that you, the people, should just suck it up, get used to it, and stop complaining.  What a joy it is to know that this insane way of living is to come to an end, an abrupt end! 

In your quiet moments, your moments of “unbusyness” just send Love to all of humanity – rich and poor, honest and unconscionably dishonest, abusers and victims – and remind yourselves that doing so is God’s Will because there is no-one anywhere whom he would discard or judge as unlovable.  That outpouring of Love in which so many of you are engaged is changing each one of you and the world.  You incarnated just to do this, so let go of your inhibitions, your feelings that indeed there must be some whom even God could not love, and intend that your love and that of the divine field of Love in which all are eternally enveloped embraces even those poor, unhappy, and misguided ones who have committed unconscionable and horrifying atrocities, as this helps them also to awaken. 

With so very much love, Saul.

You can clearly see the collapsing house of cards that the global financial system has become

Message from Saul by John Smallman for 27 March 2013 

The divine energy field enveloping you is strengthening and intensifying daily, matching your ability to meld with it more and more effectively, and of course its energy is Love, and that is permeating the hearts of those who are opening to It – the vast majority of humans – and helping you to release the attitudes and behaviors, the inflexible beliefs that so many have held for so long.  The results of this are visible all across the world, as new ideas to deal with the major problems and issues facing you are expressed and shared. 

The old, inflexible beliefs and the tools used to maintain them are still in evidence, but their ineffectiveness can no longer be disguised by blaming others for their failure to resolve the issues that they were supposed to solve.  The old order, the established order, has been in control, directing the business of politics, business, ethics, morality, religion — in fact, anything in which people interact together in any way at all — for a long time.  This order has remained hidden in the background while directing the activities of public figures, so that its hidden agendas were achieved unseen, discreetly, and easily. 

And frequently, some of those public figures did act in good faith, believing in the integrity and honesty of these “wise, intellectually brilliant elders” – their mentors and guides in the art of leadership – whose stated aim was to bring peace and abundance to all on Earth.  But of course those hidden ones, the elite, have always had their own completely self-serving, private agendas, and now the real intent of those agendas is being revealed, as more and more whistle-blowers find the courage to disclose the unconscionable secrets to which they have become party by blowing away the veils of secrecy under which so much has been hidden. 

The old order is crumbling.  It no longer has the world in the iron grip by which it has attempted to control you all for so long.  Ironically, your mass communications are at the forefront of its undoing: it assumed that because it controlled the media, the politicians, the large corporations, and the major corporate-religious bodies, it still controlled all the primary information centers and access to them.  It has now become quite apparent that this is not the case, as more and more information of a sensitive nature is becoming public knowledge, disclosing the vast and unacceptable scale of corruption in high places.  The sheer speed of information exchange has stunned those who would keep secret the intrigues and corrupt agreements to which they are party, and which have personally benefited them enormously. 

You can clearly see the collapsing house of cards that the global financial system has become, due to the unconscionable hubris and criminality of those who direct its activities, ably assisted by greedy underlings who proved to be totally bereft of any moral, ethical, let alone spiritual sense of responsibility.  Systems that are corrupt will always implode, and the scale of damage that occurs when this happens can have very far-reaching effects. 

A new system of finance is essential in order for global stability to be renewed and maintained, and a new one has been designed, put into place, and is ready to be unveiled.  Those who have benefited by building fortunes through greed and corruption from the old system — which is now in the last stages of its final collapse due to their nefarious activities — will naturally be barred from holding any positions of responsibility or authority in the new one.  They may well find that their ill-gotten gains will drain rapidly away as a result of being excluded from the new system, which will be totally transparent in all its dealings and activities. 

There will be a certain amount of confusion as the new replaces the old, but do not be alarmed as chaos will not ensue.  It will be as though an old and crumbling highway was closed off as a new one was opened to replace it.  Some will not have learnt that the old one is closed and will find themselves temporarily in a cul-de-sac where they have to turn around and retrace their steps to reach the new one.  But apart from a few minor teething problems, while the change from the old to the new occurs, the transition should be relatively smooth. 

The divine energies that envelop you are easing the fear and anxiety which the sight of the old systems collapsing has caused.  Keep your hearts open, receive the Love that is constantly offered to you, and share it widely and inclusively, yes, even with those who have caused much of the damage if you find yourselves interacting with them.  Blame, shame, and recrimination are not part of an awakened humanity, although those who have caused the severest damage will undoubtedly suffer much regret when they come to fully understand the extent of the suffering for which the bear some responsibility. 

Love is the energy field in which all of creation has its existence.  It is powerful, mighty, wise and compassionate, and It willingly and enthusiastically hugs all who seek comfort in Its warm embrace.  None are excluded, although many may at first feel unworthy and hang back.  But no one is unworthy, and as this becomes apparent by Its indiscriminate and unconditional acceptance of all who approach It, those straggling or holding back will also approach and be swept up into the field of infinite, Divine Love in which they were created. 

With so very much love, Saul.

Release Everything Within Yourselves That Is — In Even The Smallest Way — Unloving

Message from Jesus through John Smallman for 18 January 2013 

You are all most firmly established on your personal paths to awakening, each of which is part of the Super Highway leading humanity out of the illusion and home to Reality. You have all chosen to travel at a speed that suits you best in the moment, and at any time you can change that speed by choosing to increase or decrease it. The influx of new, loving energies, which have started flowing powerfully and insistently throughout the planet, are encouraging you all to increase the speed with which you are engaging your homeward journey, and that makes perfect sense. Why would you want to spend more time in the illusion where you experience so much confusion, uncertainty, and indeed chaos, when you could be rapidly returning home to the everlasting joy of your Father’s Divine Realm? 

As you know deep within yourselves you are divine, spiritual beings having a physical experience. However, part of that experience has been the forgetting who you really are. It was a choice that you made to ensure that your physical experience would seem totally real to you, in order for to you to undergo lessons that you wanted to learn from scratch. If you were able to remember who you truly are, the lessons would be of little practical use to you, because you would already know the subject-matter at the highest possible level of understanding – and there would effectively be nothing for you to learn. And of course that sounds like nonsense, for why would you hide knowledge from yourselves, so that you could become embodied as humans to relearn it? It is indeed a paradox that leads to much confusion. 

The Love from which our Father created all sentient beings is an energy that is infinitely abundant, wise, knowledgeable, creative, and powerful. It can be accessed and used in myriad ways — ways that, in your limited embodied form, you cannot possibly conceive of. It is possible for spiritual beings to choose to work with just one aspect of that energy or an infinite number of them. For instance, working only with power can lead to immense imbalances in understanding and perception, if the ends for which it is used and developed are not aligned with the need for wisdom, harmony, cooperation, and mutual concern when operating only through that one aspect. 

By becoming embodied and having a physical experience on Earth, sentient beings can use the different aspects of the Divine Energy Field individually to learn and understand the responsibilities that go with them and that have to be accepted and incorporated during that usage, while at the same time ensuring that no major damage can be caused by errors or omissions should responsibilities be forgotten or neglected. Basically, games are invented and played, and the consequences that arise then present lessons that, when learnt, lead to much greater understanding and wisdom than could occur without the presence of the limitations that human embodiment entails. 

By becoming humans you have chosen to experience a severely limited state of consciousness for the challenges and lessons it enables you to undertake. It is part of the unreal state of separation that started when you invented and built the illusion, and you have, as it were, to rebuild the divine aspects of yourselves that are not immediately obvious to you as humans, but which are accessible to you though prayer and meditation when you make the intent to be spiritually guided, in order to return home. Rebuild is not really the right word, because no part of you has been destroyed or demolished – every aspect of you was created immortal, eternal, and divine – and never could be, but it is useful as an analogy. 

The experience of being human is so far removed from your true nature that to return to that state without adequate preparation would be shockingly disturbing, because you would still hold memories of attitudes and behaviors you had espoused that are utterly estranged from the loving state in which you were created. It would not be apparent initially that what you were remembering was but an unreal state that had never happened, and to see such unloving aspects of yourselves appearing real would be horribly alarming and disturbing. 

You are Divine Beings, Beings of Love, and it would be totally incomprehensible and reprehensible to see yourselves as far less than that, as beings who could willingly and apparently happily cause suffering to other sentient beings. And in Reality that is indeed impossible, but to have apparent memories, recollections of things, events, behaviors, actions that are not utterly loving, in which it seemed that you had taken part, would be devastating for you — even though they had ‘never happened.’ To imagine situations like that are beyond the realms of possibility for Divine Beings, which is what you are. So, to find yourselves holding such memories, even though they are unreal, would indeed be shocking. 

Returning to your fully conscious and natural state — awakening into Reality — is what you are doing as you struggle with the confusion and suffering of the illusion. The way to follow this path is by releasing everything within yourselves that is — in even the smallest way — unloving, or not in complete alignment with Love. And as you release those unreal aspects of yourselves, which have never been a part of the Divine Being that your Father created, the memories attached to them will all dissolve, so that you can fully awaken into the brilliance, beauty, peace, harmony, and Love that is your natural and eternal state. 

The way home, guaranteed and divinely assured by your ever-loving Father, is through release, complete release of all that is not of God. That is the task in which you are presently fully engaged, and failure is neither an option nor a possibility. You are Beings of Love returning to awareness of that divine and wondrous state. 

Your loving brother, Jesus.

There is no longer any need for you to continue the cycles of reincarnation

Message by Raul for 17 October 2012 through John Smallman 

The divine schedule for humanity’s awakening was established the instant your apparent separation from Reality occurred. Your Father could not let you delve into the mysteries of the unreality that you had invented, and presented as real to your collective mind, without ensuring that you could never get permanently lost there. The Light of His Love was securely installed in each individual who chose to go with the collective into the illusion, and the timescale for your return was laid down, but with an enormous degree of flexibility built in to allow for any diversions or distractions which you might choose to engage with as you journeyed along your homeward path. 

Over the eons of illusory time and place, you have all without exception endured much personal suffering and needless to say, you have also imposed much suffering on others. It was illusory, it was self-inflicted, and it never happened. But the power of your collective imagination is enormous, and you have succeeded in convincing yourselves that your history of deceit and betrayal of, and violence to one another is absolutely real. 

So real in fact, that to enable you to awaken from the illusion it is essential that you completely change the attitudes it formulated and encouraged, and release all beliefs that in any way conflict with your innate ability, desire, and intent to offer indiscriminate and Unconditional Love to all sentient beings. It is innate because, like all of God’s creation, you were created in Love with Love as the energy that empowers and motivates you in every moment of your eternal existence. 

To forgive yourselves for all the offenses and suffering that you seem to have caused to yourselves or to others is the first step that you need to take. Then you need to forgive all without exception whom you believe have in any way hurt or offended you. Many of you have been working on this for numerous Earth lifetimes, and are now also working as Light-bearers and way-showers because, having gone through much of what the majority of humanity needs to address individually, you are ideally suited and qualified to assist others in their awakening process — simply by demonstrating love, compassion, acceptance, and forgiveness in your daily living. 

With the intensifying field of Divine Love surrounding the planet and enveloping each one of you, there is also an overabundance of assistance available and constantly offered to you from those in the spiritual realms to ensure that you succeed in releasing all those inflexible beliefs that have served you so dismally. If it is your intent to awaken — and it is the intent of each one of you to do so, even if that intent is presently hidden below your level of conscious awareness — then you will succeed, because it is divinely ordained. Only a few, who still feel that they are not ready or willing to step out of the illusion, will remain asleep. However, when they are ready to take that step they, like you, will be afforded every opportunity to awaken, and will then do so. No one will fail to awaken, no one will be lost, because Reality allows no loss. 

Knowing, as you indubitably do, that you are divine beings having an illusory experience, then it is also impossible for you not to know that your existence is eternal. Death is just an illusory concept that you have invented to describe the situation that occurs when you make the decision to lay down your physical vehicle and re-enter the spiritual realms. Until very, very recently this normally then involved a self-assessment of the life you had just lived in the illusion, in the presence of your loving and compassionate guides, to enable you to choose and plan a further Earth life that would provide you with the lessons that you chose to have presented to you. 

Always, within the illusion, you have had abundant opportunities to explore and examine the beliefs and opinions that are part of the life path that you had chosen, prior to your incarnation on the earth plane, to experience, and they constantly present you with the appropriate experiential lessons. But frequently you were unable to take full advantage of these learning opportunities because the energy of the illusion is so dense and so dark. 

Now, because of all the work you have done over the eons, and because of the intense and abundant help you are receiving from the divine energy field enveloping the Earth, and because your Father – Who has never ever required, demanded, or imposed suffering of any kind upon you – wants to see your suffering come to an end, there is no longer any need for any of you to continue those cycles of reincarnation that have been an obstinate, intractable, and painful part of the whole illusion. You will finally be completely free — free from the exile you chose to endure within the nightmare that the illusion became — when you awaken, as you most assuredly will. 

With so very much love, Saul.
