Beloved ones, it doesn't matter what name you call Me, or even
if you believe in Me at all. While the mind might reach for
explanations, the heart knows that I Am Real. I Am the center of your
life and of your being. I Am the strands of Light from which you are
woven.
If you allow Me now, I will activate your heart, that each
of you might find yourself alive in Me, experiencing the life that I
make and experiencing Love as the truth of your being. Then, your heart
will walk with Me through everything that the world of the mind presents
and you will be free, for I will feed you from this Love and your heart
will free you to live in this abundance that never ends.
This,
beloved ones, is the only shift that must be made. There is nothing that
you need to figure out, for the moment that you allow your heart to
fully open, then your experience of life will change. Until now you have
been perceiving this Shift to the Heart through the perceptual filters
of your ego-mind. When you allow your heart to become the center through
which you live, then all that you see and experience will be founded in
this endless peace, this Love, this beauty and the fecundity of God.
I
Am life making more of itself. I Am Love knowing itself expanded and if
you walk with Me with an active and open heart, then everything reveals
this endless beauty that we create together. Walk with Me as the center
of your life and being and no matter what the world says is before you,
Love will clear the path and bring you everything.
Love will feed
you and bring you all you need to know the truth through the vehicle of
Love, the center of your being that is all you need to fund your life
from pure Creation consciousness, to create as My heart with the power
of never-ending Love. As the open heart of God I Am, you give to
everyone, everything that Love brings forth as gifts to them.
So,
your eyes might see a world that is filled with confusion and your mind
might say that many good things failed, but as the active heart, the
center of Creation, the vision of Love reveals the deeper truth of God
and shows you the miracle of awakening life in every person, in every
molecule, in every atom that dances the joy of harmony engaged in Making
Love, until every breath is stunning in its majesty and you know
yourself as the heart of All I Am. Knowing yourself, then each of you
then knows Me, reflected as the world through Love's perfect vision.
Each
person is revealed to be the mystery of the heart of Love unveiled.
Even those things, beloved ones, that the mind sees as filled with
fearful possibilities, the heart shall show you as the potential of Love
to break free from the cage of dualistic seeing through the recognition
that I Am Love and only Love is Real. I Am the strength that brings
you easily to greater freedom, as you allow the active heart to reveal
the most amazing life and it is your own.
I promise you, My
dearest and most precious ones, as you step in tune with Me, heart
active and open, you can literally walk through mine fields of every
kind -- be they physical, mental or emotional -- and I, God, I who Am
Creator -- shall guide your every step that you might find that right
between the polarities of the ego's world is the beacon of the heart
that guides your every step.
In these times of great change,
Love's perfect guidance, the tender way you hear My voice, the
reassurance of My presence and of your strength in Me will bring you
through every challenge effortlessly. But so much more than this will
always be revealed, for right between the polarities of ego, the active
heart releases the dream of "not enough" -- frees everything and
everyone it touches, brings back the purity of the surrendered life and
the endless effervescent supply of life that feeds your consciousness,
creates true heart awareness and wraps the world in the unity of this
Love.
Step by step I Am present here and guiding you, and bringing
you the gift of Love with every touch. Each life you see, each person
you bless, everything that comes into your sphere of influence is
effortlessly entrained to this perfection of Love, raised up to the
highest and purest vibration of God that your vision which through the
mind has ever been looking down…looking at the world it has made, the
ground you walk upon … that this might fall away in an instant as the
heart comes online.
The heart raises you up from your knees upon
which you have been worshipping Me, be this figuratively or
realistically, and opens you into your endless experience of yourself as
the pure heart of all Creation, the heart of Love, the center of All I
Am. In that instant that is Now, the assurance comes that there is no
question that I Am always providing for you, for what life doesn't
nourish the heart within it?
This Shift to the Heart, this joyous
Heart Activation changes your experience of life right now and brings
you the ongoing moment of pure bliss as you know yourself as the
orgasmic heart of Creation itself and you become the vehicle through
which I love.
Oh, dear ones, you finally know you are My heart
giving. You are ever and always the pure and open conduit of Love. You
are singing forth the truth of every being that one moment in the
presence of this active heart, alive in you, bring effortless
entrainment, bringing every life into its perfect place in the dance and
bringing the acceptance of all these endless gifts.
So if you
find yourself beholding the world in trepidation, if you feel those
waves of fear rising up, if the duality play of daily life hooks you
again, simply return and choose to live the heart, to be the heart of
God I Am, integrated soulfully, so that only Love's Will moves you.
Just
as you breathe, so too do you absorb this Love, taking it in, allowing
it to feed you, receiving Love's atomic power to fuel your life and
letting your active heart bring the expansion of Love and the
consciousness of Love itself, until you are the experience of the
ecstasy of extending this gift of God -- until you feel yourself
interwoven with Me perfectly, until you know yourself as this heart,
this conduit of Love given to you, that you might accept your true
identity and all that Love provides.
What I Am saying here to each
of you is that I Am more than enough. I Am the Source of all you are
and of all you need, not only to sustain your life but to allow the very
riches of Creation itself to burst forth in freedom and to know the
truth as power and beauty, grace and peace and unending Love live as the
truth of your being through our communion, by whatever name you call
Me.
Whatever definitions you have held, dear ones, let this Love
supersede them all through direct experience. Please let Me in. Let Me
come and touch your heart. Let Me electrify it. Let Me throw open the
doorway of heart perception and please, let the Will of Love I Am be
fulfilled in you that the wonder, the miracle and the mystery can now be
present as your life and as the world.
Please, beloved ones, make
room for Me. Let Me come and walk with you. Let Me activate your heart
that you might be truly alive with the atomic power of Love expanding
your boundaries and the explosion, this explosion of Love easily
changing everything -- how you see and feel and how effortlessly you
allow joy, how perfectly you allow the provision of Love to fund your
life, to fuel your every moment and to bring to you the most magnificent
experience of the expression of this Love as your counterpart, the
essence of your heart made manifest that you might see and feel and
deeply know My Love for you…
…that you might give it to all who
need it…this Love…this power…this joy of life that parts the waters of
the illusory world of the dualistic mind and reveals the heart's reality
of Love and plenty that in every Now Moment I might be your guide and
also be your Real identity, the fully awake center of Love.
The
heart of God I Am shall entrain it all, magnetizing every heart to this
miracle and every life to the gift of transformation that just as the
butterfly, you find yourself free at last after all the work of
transforming…that you might realize that this is who you have been all
along, the heart of God, unlimited.
Only your heart can know Me
and it knows Me perfectly, but you have been living with a veil of fear
around it. Step into My presence and say "Yes" that Creation, the power
of life may bring the unveiling, may open up that chrysalis that has so
long held you, that you might spread the wings of your spirit and
rejoice in freedom.
Just remember that in these times that might
seem confusing to the mind, I Am your truth, your center, your
activation of Love and I Am all you need.

From Victim to Creator – Part 2
In Part 1 of this series I shared with you the final and defining moment of how, in October 2008, I came to decide to be the creator of my own reality.Obviously there was a lifetime of events that lead up to this moment and I am now still busy discovering what it means to make that decision.And that is what I want to share with you in this post – what DOES it mean to decide that you are the creator of your own reality?If you were to claim for yourself that you are “an eternal, immortal, creator being of infinite power” then what should you create?
Simply put, I cannot see that it is possible to make a buck in the world of business and still have your integrity in tact.
I found I could also no longer countenance all the endless chasing after money.All the polishing of egos and kow-towing that had to be done to people that I would otherwise not want to spend even a moment’s time with.All the stress and all the worry, all in the interests of a few pennies in my own pocket while I made strangers that I would never even meet much, much richer; the invisible owners of the corporation called “shareholders” that were the beneficiaries of everyone’s labour.
And that was just one area of the life I was living that was not right for me.There were many.Everywhere I looked I asked myself, “if I am a creator being, is THIS what I want to create?”And the answer was almost always “no”.
I didn’t want the city anymore with its mad traffic and all the aggression, crime and frustration.I didn’t want the inauthentic friends.I didn’t want the non-stop social events and wild parties that always ended with emptiness.I became disconnected from all the disconnect.
So the question arose - if this was not what I wanted to create then what DID I want?Given that I now knew for sure I did not want to continue living the life I was living, this was obviously a question that was in urgent need of answering.
Fortunately, I have a higher-self that is very kind to me.By the time I was ready to claim my own creator-status I had already found a way to show myself, in the clearest way imaginable, exactly what I wanted to create.Even though I didn’t know this was what I was being shown at the time.Does that sound cryptic?Allow me to explain:
In April of 2008 (which was six months before that final, momentous decision), Lisa and I were on holiday in an area of my country called The Garden Route. We have always loved it there and had holidayed there every single year for the past 15 years.It’s mainly the indigenous Tsitsikamma (pronounced Tzi-tzee-karma) forests on the slopes of the Outeniqua Mountains (pronounced Oh-ten-ick-wah) that draw us there.But there is something very special about the whole area.On this particular holiday we experienced something that changed us both forever.It occurred while we were on a hike in a particularly beautiful and unspoiled area.At some point the trail took us up a hill, out of the forests and onto a small plateau overlooking a spectacularly beautiful valley with a small river winding its way along the bottom running into the sea in the distance.On any given day, this would be the kind of view that I would stop and marvel at.It certainly was beautiful.But on that particular day, standing there looking across the valley at the forested mountains in the distance, something changed.The world around me was suddenly impossibly beautiful.Now, I could try to describe it – I could wax lyrical about the way the sun poured its light down on the earth like golden syrup.I could tell you that each leaf of every single tree looked like a perfect emerald jewel and that the wind through the grass set up a vibration that sang and hummed in my soul.I could tell you that I believed I could see with absolute and perfect clarity every single leaf and blade of grass right the way to the distant horizon.I could tell you about the quality of the air – that it had become gelid with the density of pure life essence that surrounded and interpenetrated me and all that was around me.I could throw pages and pages of such words at you in my desperate attempt to share with you the pure transcendent bliss of that moment and always I would feel like I am not even scratching the surface of what that moment was like.Perhaps I should simply say that I believe I saw God in the very Life of the forest on that day.My heart was opened and a portal was made there, through which I saw the world.For the very first time ever I really SAW.I saw with my heart and my soul instead of my eyes and my mind.And it was beautiful.It was more beautiful than I could imagine anything ever being.This amazing, mystical experience was beyond my ability to even begin to make sense of.I stood.I stared.I was awed.I felt.I knew.I belonged.
Striving for comprehension my mind eventually came up with an idea of what to do with this experience.It sent the thought out to the forest saying: “I see you!I love you!Will you accept us as custodians?”
And then I gained the presence of mind to wonder what had happened to Lisa.I had no idea how much time had passed since I had last spoken to her as we huffed and puffed up the steep slope.I turned to look for her.She was a few metres away, down on her knees with her back turned to me.I noticed she was shaking.As I approached her I realised she was crying.I got closer and I heard her saying over and over again; “yes… yes… yes…”
In that moment, it felt to me like she was answering my question on behalf of the forest.Or maybe the forest had asked her that same question and she was answering.It felt like Lisa and the whole of the forest and I were all one being and we were all speaking the same question and answer to ourselves:“Will you accept us as custodians?Yes… yes… yes.”*
After sometime – I have no idea how long – we noticed it was getting late and we had some distance to walk to get back to the car.Reluctantly, but with out hearts full, we walked back to the car in a kind of euphoric, blissful semi-trance.We both knew something life-changing had happened but had no way to make sense of it.
I am deeply grateful that Lisa experienced this with me.Partly because experiencing it alone would have made it altogether less meaningful but more so because if I had experienced this alone I would have known that I was now on a journey without her.An experience like this changes you.You are no longer the same person you were before such an event.Everything changes.Certainly your life path and all the things you have previously valued are substantially re-arranged.
And so it was that, six months later, when I hit the crisis which caused me to finally choose to release my own victim status and to begin to claim my own creator-status instead, I was ready.I won’t lie to you, I had a great deal of difficultly and discomfort letting go of victim in all its guises.I am STILL busy with the vestiges of that process.But at least I knew one thing… the most important thing… the thing that would pull me forward from then on.I knew that I wanted to create a life that brought me always to that state of connection that I had felt on the crest of the hill in the Outeniqua Mountains.I knew that I wanted to create myself as a part of that blissful Oneness.I knew I wanted to release those things that drove me into a state of separation and disconnect.I wanted the Light, the Life and the Love.I wanted it all.I know now that what Lisa and I experienced there was a true mystical experience.A truly transcendent moment.It was a moment of perfect Oneness with All That Is.And since experiencing that, the first time, I have known that what I wanted more than anything was to find my way to a permanent experience of that.
It was also clear to me that my Soul had a plan for me and that the forests of the Outeniqua Mountains were a vital part of that plan.I am deeply grateful to The One that Lisa felt exactly the same way.
And that is what we set about doing.
As I write this blog post we have just taken delivery of a huge stack of cardboard boxes.We are just about to begin packing up those of our possessions that are going with us in our move to the Outeniqua Mountains.Yes, we are actually doing it.We are moving.Lisa resigned her job.Would you believe it if I told you that, just before she resigned, she was offered a very attractive position in the South of France?Big money and all the ego-inducements that a sparkling career-path can offer.She turned it down.Would you believe it if I told you that I gave my business away?Two of my employees had shown such passion and commitment to the business that my heart told me that the right thing to do would be to give them the business.I did a six-month hand-over during which time I trained them in every aspect of the operation and then I walked away.Since then Lisa and I have sold our house, sold her zooty little BMW Z3 and are busy selling my Hyundai Tiburon.We are exiting all that.We have found our perfect piece of paradise in the mountains and we are in the process of buying it.As soon as my car sells, we’ll be be replacing it with a 4x4 pickup.We have cashed in all our investments and pulled ourselves out of all the fear based financial tools like insurance and retirement funds.These things are just not relevant to us anymore.We have pared down and simplified every aspect of our lives.The wallet-full of plastic in sharp metallic colours was taken back to the bank for shredding and accounts were closed.We now have one card and one bank account.We even have just one mobile phone between us.No store cards.No open contracts for anything with anyone.The load is light and we are free.
And so I am in strange place.My old life is over.It is behind me.All sorted out and tied off with a bow.And yet I am not dead.I am still here and very much more alive than I have ever been before.At age forty, I feel more vital and full of life than I have ever felt.I feel ready to begin again.I am ready to birth myself into a new life.But this time will be different.This birth will not start with me having to go through forgetting and physical birth and then learning how to be a human in a human society.Instead I will start knowing who I am and why I am here.I choose the stage setting to be the beauty and splendour of the Outeniqua Mountains.I choose to have the curtains go up with me and withmy angel-light lady-love and our dogs finding ourselves in a timber home on our land in the forest.I choose to have the main thrust of the plot of my story revolve around my journey Home.The quest to find my way back to the endless love and unspeakable bliss that calls to me from within my heart.Lisa and I briefly glimpsed it on that day but now I will find my way Home to permanent relationship with it.And when I find it next I know I will not just find a forest there.I will find all of Life there.And I will find You there too.
*If you want to read Lisa’s perspective on this mystical experience you can find her blog posting here.
In Part 3 of this series I will share with you the details of the life I am choosing to create and the spiritual significance of these new choices.You are invited to take a free membership of my website if you’d like to be updated on when new blog-posts are made. You will then also be able to leave comments on blog-posts.
Comment discussion - I'd really like to know if you have had a mystical experience of your own - and if so how this has changed your life. Something else I'd be keen to know is if you have given thought to the life you would create if you are "an eternal, immortal, creator being of infinite power" and if so, how that life might look. Please share with me these and any other thoughts that are appropriate by clicking on "comments" below.
