The Beloved One: “Many things can happen in a mortal’s life which can leave one feel disempowered. Since these lessons are designed to make you think; I desire to speak a few words on self-empowerment. I know that the ‘market’ is being flooded with different books on self empowerment, which is good, but there is one way which is the most direct way when one feels lost, lonely, disenfranchised and beaten by life, and when a hopelessness sets in, which can leave the door open to self-abuse and mental aberrations. Let Me make it clear to you that in God’s eyes no one is ever lost, for this idea is only in the mind of the human as it leads a life separate from the Creator.

“We need to get down to basics here, and re-state the fact that there is no place to hide in the widest of universes, and therefore no one is ever lost. One only has to open his or her mind to realize this fact of life. They are those who feel themselves to be separate and lonely, who need to be empowered to think for themselves, and take the time to go into meditation to find their way into the Stillness of their heart. It is there were My Guidance and empowerment await. This needs to be experienced to know that this is real. People say: ‘God seems so far away.’ Then one might wonder, ‘who moved?’ This is the crux of the matter, because there can be no separation, except as it exists in the mind of humankind. It is the scourge of the planet that so many think this way, and have been spoon-fed on the fallacy that God is too high and mighty to be bothered with ‘a little me’.

“It is the belief system which is erroneous, and which, quite simply put, lacks trust and faith in the loving over-care of the Creator, and therefore it follows that as a man/woman thinketh, that he or she becomes. It is the law of cause and effect: One starts events in motion in the thought life. Thoughts are living things, due to the energy given to them, and I cannot reiterate enough how, with one’s own thoughts, one can disenfranchise oneself, and disempower oneself. Do go for the Help, which is so freely available to you all. The lost ones will find a home, the hopeless find hope, the unloved ones find Love and acceptance just the way they are, and the weak become strong and find the courage to get going. To each, help will be given. It is the unbelief which keeps this help away.

“Empowerment lies within your own power. The secret is to recognize this, to live up to the hidden strengths, and develop the gifts each one possesses. It is uncertainty and fear which hold people back from realizing these, and then the material lures take over so the spiritual counterpart is neglected and forgotten, which is so detrimental to the balance of the personality. And so, one lands into the maelstrom of addictive habits, and does not think if things could be done differently by making different choices and decisions. It is all in the depth of the thought-life and the ability to become an independent thinker. Become more conscious of your thoughts, as everything can be changed in that process of self-recognition. Muster your faith and look honestly at this process. This too needs sincerity and more sincerity. Think on these matters of self-empowerment.”
