God’s
love for humanity is beyond any concept that can be imagined while you
are enclosed within the illusion and entranced by it, as so many of you
are. Yes, there is much that is wrong, unsettling, and that causes
suffering as you experience life in the illusion, but that does not
prevent you from being entranced by it. Even those of you who know that
you are experiencing life in an illusory state still find it almost
impossible not to identify with your body almost all the time as it
makes its constant demands on you – sleep, nourishment, healing,
entertainment, distraction, movement, etc.
The
illusion is very convincing because it is a mass belief system about an
illusory environment that all of humanity chose to engage with and
maintain. When someone realizes this and attempts to draw attention to
the insanity of it he is quickly ridiculed and told that it is he that
is insane, a nutcase. He may even be institutionalized or arrested if
the “authorities” believe him to be a threat to himself or to society.
And
of course, within your illusion, there are indeed some who are more
disturbed than most and who do need to be restrained for their own good
or for that of society. Frequently, however, the boundary between these
two states is very difficult for you to sensibly discern, and this
increases the suffering of those who are already feeling like social
outcasts when others judge them and find them wanting.
Many
of you do try very hard and spend much time mediating to relieve and
reduce the disharmonies, the imbalances, the conflicts, and the
disagreements that occur in your families or in society at large, and
this is most commendable – it is love in action – but the fact remains
that the illusion is an illusory state from which you are to awaken.
Until
that happens many issues will continue to arise that disturb and
unsettle you, and it may well seem to you that to attempt to assist
others often only aggravates a situation. Just remind yourselves that
this is not the case – every loving thought, word, or action has very
far reaching beneficial effects even though they are not apparent to
you.
To
behave lovingly and to address and release unloving behaviors and
attitudes is the path to your awakening, and never before in human
history has such a vast multitude of humanity trodden this path
together. That is why there is so much joy in the spiritual realms, and
why so much assistance and love is pouring down on the planet at this
point in your evolution. Because of this there is absolutely not the
slightest possibility that humanity will be unsuccessful, and so your
awakening is guaranteed.
Do
not be unsettled by the bad news, the suffering, the unfairness, and
the conflicts on which so many, no doubt inspired by the constant
outpourings from the mainstream media, appear to be focusing their
undivided attention. Enormous changes are occurring in preparation for
the moment of your awakening, and because that involves the dissolution
of the illusion it often appears that things are going steadily from bad
to worse as you are constantly informed about the growing number of
woes and disasters all over the world.
Part
of the reason for this influx of bad news is that those who would run
the world and control you see that they are losing their grip. They are
frightened, and they want to frighten everyone else into believing that
only they know how to solve the issues that are threatening worldwide
stability. Then they believe that they can reestablish their
self-awarded or inherited pre-eminence, and take the power that ordinary
people willingly or unwillingly give them when those people accept that
that is their role.
Do
not be fooled by these fear-mongering tactics, their sole purpose is to
convince you of your inadequacy and their brilliance so that they can
continue to try and run the world solely for their own benefit. Their
days are numbered. They no longer have the influence, the competence,
or the support to maintain their authority structures and the
self-centered agendas that those structures support, and it is those
that you can now see are on the verge of collapse.
God’s
plan for your awakening, for your return to full consciousness, and for
the dissolution of the illusion is moving forwards precisely as He
intends, and nothing stands in its way. You are going to awaken into
the glory of your true and divine state, and your joy and amazement will
be wondrous. Remind yourselves of this frequently throughout the day,
and relax in the knowledge of this divine truth.
Your loving brother, Jesus.
