We offer a happy New Year to all our readers and pray that
Mankind will heed the warnings of a negative and material world, where too many
try to buy their happiness from material sources and where corruption and greed
continue to play a part in the hearts and minds of men and women alike.
There are too many young people who simply
crave to be rich and famous, as they see a celebrity world based so often
without values and those who do good work with their acquired wealth are not
given the recognition that they deserve.
Where there are good people living out
their lives for the benefit of their fellow man, woman and child, the example
that they set is so often hidden from the young, who need to take note and
shape their lives accordingly.
We are here for such a short time really
and many do work hard against the flow of negative vibrations that seem to sap
the goodness and the righteousness from so many. We are too often tempted to take the easy fix;
the simple way that we feel will cause us the least trouble.
In this 21st century of change,
we will see many examples of the old world and way of life being left
behind. New things are happening and new
powers are rising, while others fall.
What was so in the last century has already been modified and not all of
it is for the better.
However there are signs that the naked and
bloody aggression is slowing down and many parties are finding compromises to
their reasons for spreading the killing fields across the world.
The need for Mankind to love and respect
his neighbour is fast approaching and while this is a two-way action of respect
and humanity, we all need to understand that there will always be differences,
but, at the same time, we will have more in common that we suppose.
To live together in perfect harmony is a
big ask, but to respect each other’s views and to be able to see that we share
the same difficulties in our daily lives is a good start. There are many ways that we can share the burdens
of everyday life through empathy and understanding.
Few souls go through life without
witnessing many heartbreaks and sacrifices.
It is from these that we grow stronger and learn how to comfort each
other, because unless we have been through these emotional discomforts we can
be of little help to each other.
Life should all be about what we can do for
others and to use our skills to advantage in their lives as well as our
own. There are many souls, who give up
their time and income to spend time helping souls that are in great need and
many of these are doctors and nurses, who go out to the danger areas of the
world to work tirelessly for the needy.
Not many of us have the drive and calling
to give up so much, sometimes even including their lives, so that others may
spiritually profit by them being in their lives. They work in love for humanity of all races
and creeds, as they know that we are guided by only one ‘God’, to whom there
are many different paths.
Unconditional love was given to each and
every one of us at our creation by the Higher Intelligence. Without conditions we are loved, whatever we
do and however wrong we sometimes get it!
However, we should know that this love is
there for us to use for the Greater Good and, as Spiritual Law teaches us, the
more we use our gifts the more we will be given. This applied to all things and that if we do
harm, so we will in turn be harmed and, if we do good, so we will be rewarded.
As we are all asked to make many sacrifices
in our lives, so we will be ‘tested’ to see if we can still live right and, as
the saying goes, “Cut our coat according
to the cloth”. When we are low and
disrespected, but are listening to the guidance given to us from that Higher
Intelligence, so we will be saved and brought out of our discomforts into a
better life.
Then we will have earned our place in
society and are rewarded from the Godhead according to our merits. Let nobody be disillusioned, there is no easy
fix, but through hard work and dedication we can and do find ourselves helped
into higher streams of consciousness through the helping of others.
It is only for those who have been there
and taken on this challenge without weakening to lower moral and selfish actions
that result in the lifting of our spirit by that Higher Intelligence.
He gave us freewill and that means that we
don’t have to walk in His Light, but we can choose to turn away and travel
towards the Darkness of Ignorance, but we should know that at some point we
will reach out and will need to come all that way back, as we are eventually
drawn by the stronger love and light of Him over the darkness in which we chose
to travel.
There are so many causes that are all
around us and this century will show the need for change as never before, so
think whether you wish to be a part of it, giving and receiving unconditional
love or whether you prefer a more selfish road into the darkness.
