"Ye Are The Light Of The World." (Matthew 5:14)

The opposing forces would have us believe in doom. I say, believe in LIGHT! Dream the seeming impossible dream into manifestation. There is a divided camp on earth: those who speak of evil, gloom, and inevitable destruction of this planet. I say, dream of love and peace and work toward it in your life. It can be done! With all our combined prayers we can stop war! Some of the why’s and how to’s are up to the divine Spirit. It is our job to see truth, to flow into God’s will, and to believe there can be peace.

REMEMBER THE EARTH by Merry C. Battles

Remember the earth, when it was new?

Loving and caring as we grew,

Grew in heart and soul and mind,

Accepting each other as divine.

Our spirits were free as the dove,

Gliding and searching far above.

Searching the heavens, letting no sin.

The Lord told us to look within.

There we found creation;

There we found love.

Our hearts were in heaven,

But not heaven above.

We are in heaven, but just don’t know it. You say heaven, here on earth? How can that be with famine, killing, disease, disharmony? All of these conditions are for a purpose. It has been a difficult lesson for us humans. We started as slaves and have now gained our freedom, but are not yet released from the bondage of the mind. It is time to fly! Let those moments of love in your life multiply. Call upon those moments when in fear. Redeem the bonuses you have earned by right living. “It is the time for all good people to come to the aid of each other.”

The doom sayers are doom seers. Let us see the world as we choose to see it. Let us see the waters clean, the earth rich with life - giving nutrients, healing foods for all people, animals, and plants, the air abundant with oxygen and life giving ethers (Chi), the “fires” burning brightly to cleanse and show the way. Start with our own life and dreams. The phoenix will rise out of the ashes, reborn. Know it, see it, believe it…heaven on earth will come. The Cosmos lives inside each one of us. Treat her with respect and she will do the same for you. “Whatsoever you do to the least of my breathren, you do it to me….” (John 4:35)

As I sit here, love goes out from me in an interconnectedness to all kingdoms of earth and the heavens. I see the oneness of all of us: human, angelic, deva, animal, plant, and mineral. I can see our union as one effecting the other, as one string pulled or pawn taken, all connecting us together in the “One Body of God.” All are linked within the inbreathing and the outbreathing of the universe. All are one pulse, the heartbeat of us joined with the heartbeat of the earth. One becomes the other. All life is One in the mind of God.

We truly are brothers and sisters in light. We can become friends as we work together for the good, as we care for one another as a part of ourselves. PEACE ON EARTH and goodwill to all the kingdoms of our beautiful Mother Earth! nn©2009 Merry C. Battles
