STAND BY ...

Are you reading the headlines and feeling helpless?  There is much you can do.  Stand by this blog ... Within the next few days you will be given your opportunity to take action just as Sanaya advised in Friday's message, "Take a Stand for Love." 

Out of Ignorance

A weapon is nothing but an inert mass until the holder of that weapon makes a choice to use it.  This is free will.  Once that choice is made to harm another, any weapon will do.

Life is sacred.  Why is this so, if life is eternal?  All life is an expression of God, and God is, indeed, Love.  You are part of That.  Your brother and sister are part of That.  The little ant that walks on your finger unaware that you exist is part of That.  You go on and on into eternity, existing for the very purpose that God is Love and wishes to experience its true nature through you.  To use free will to express anything less than your true nature shows ignorance of who you are and why you are here.  This ignorance is not to be condemned, but seen with compassion.  If the ignorant were able to feel compassion, they would not be ignorant, nor would they be capable of harming another.

Your task is to help all to open their eyes and see the sacredness of life.  Killing does not end life, but it does end the opportunity to grow in loving and to express love here and now.  In your grief, may there be awakening to the reason you are all here, and may more love be felt as a result.  In this way, may good come of this expression of ignorance.

A Call to Action

You must save yourselves.  You pray, “Oh, God, help us!” yet God has already given you all the tools.  You have a voice, you have a pen, you have eyes, and hands, and feet.  Put them all together in the many combinations they can form to form a movement.  Take back your world, which you have given away through neglect.

There is only one Power, and that is Love.  You have been given that in abundance, but you put it by the wayside in favor of the passive route.  Love is both a passive and an active Force.  It is ever-present, but it must be used as well as felt.  God has given you the tools to save yourselves.  You can continue to ask God for help, but God has been answering you all along.

You are an active co-creator with God.  Use your power to re-introduce into your world the only Power that heals.  Be the solution and the change you wish to see.  Use your God-given power and heal your world.

Note from Suzanne:  The guidance is flowing, and a plan is forming rapidly.  Stay tuned for how you can make a difference ... Ask to be guided, yourself, and be ready to share your thoughts.

Take a Stand for Love

In the wake of the latest school killing ...

Take a deep breath and step back from your sorrow.  You cannot think rationally when focused on irrational thoughts.  First and foremost know that those who have passed are fine.  It is their families who will suffer, as will all of you.

This is a mass sickness you are witnessing, not the sickness of one human, but the effect of a very large cause—the sickness of a society.  What is sickness, but disorder, disharmony, and disease?  The natural state of life is order, harmony, and ease.  What has caused such dis-order, dis-harmony, and dis-ease so that you are repeatedly witnessing the callous taking of multiple lives by one human?  It is the mass belief that such killing is acceptable.  “Oh, no!” you cry.  “We do not see it as acceptable!”  Truly?  Then why is it that you allow the majority of your television and theater movies to include mass killing?  Why do your young children play video games in which points are earned for the taking of lives?

Millions will mourn the deaths of these children.  To numb themselves from feeling further pain, they will sit in front of a television and watch more killing.  “Oh, but that is only fantasy,” you say.  And the fantasy begins as young children watch animated movies where life is given no respect.

You come to this earth to learn to love.  You are given free will.  You think you live in an advanced society, but how far have you advanced in your capacity to love?  You are not much more advanced than your cavemen.

Many will want to take away all of the guns.  This, my friends, is a band-aide.  Other weapons will appear until the root cause is treated.  You have lost respect for life.  Your ancient civilizations reached this point and ceased to exist.  Will you reach the same conclusion?  We do not wish to instill fear, but it is highly likely at the rate your society is going.  You are given free will to choose.  Do you choose to teach love or hatred?  You choose to teach love in your churches one day per week.  Your children go to school and return to homes where parents and children view scenes of violence together and call this entertainment.  Where is the teaching?  It is a great responsibility all of you have, and many have abdicated this responsibility.

You look to your leaders in times of crisis and cry, “Fix this!  Do something!”  The problems begin much closer to home.  There must be leaders in the homes, at the level of the family unit, with daily discussions of love and respect, along with the demonstration of the same to all human beings.  All must learn to respect life and to teach only love.

How do you turn this around?  Take a stand for love—not against hatred, not against violence, not against guns.  Those hold no true power.  Take a stand for love.  Teach each other that only love heals. 

It has taken your society decades to reach this point.  You are quite advanced technologically, yet oh, so very lacking in the fundamentals.  It will not change overnight. 

Become a crusader for change.  Espouse love and respect.  Become a leader from a place of love, not from a place of anger.

This is a sickness you are dealing with … an imbalance.  Will you put a band aide on it or seek a total cure?  Will you go into isolation or put on a surgical mask and walk into the heart of the dis-ease with the antidote?

Look upon these critical incidents as symptoms of a cancer that will ultimately cause the death of your society unless and until the mass consciousness changes from one of apathy and disrespect to one of love.

We are sending all the love in the universe from beyond the veil.  Those who passed are enveloped in it now.  It is you who are left to take a stand for love.

A State of Mind

Lonely is a state of mind.  Why are some content to be found only with themselves, whilst others experience sadness and at times even panic?  Go back, back, back in your personal history as a human, but only for your own enlightenment.  We do not wish you to dwell in the past, but to visit it for understanding.  What did you learn to tell yourself long ago that gave you the need for others' presence in order to feel safe?

You are safe and loved now.  This is one of your greatest tasks--to learn and know this.  Yes, it is delightful to be in the presence of those you care about, but you are deeply cared about at all times.  Sit in the silence and ask to feel fully how very deeply you are cared for.  These are not mere words.  We pray that you will do so.  Ask for this experience, and when your prayers are answered, you will begin to crave these sacred moments of silence when no other is around.

Seek balance between enjoying others and being alone, and never again fear loneliness.

Discernment (A big "wow" moment today!)

Discernment … determining truth from what is not truth.  Can you look at a field of beautiful flowers and pick out the weeds?  Are you sure?  What constitutes a weed?  Is it a judgment or a knowing?  To practice true discern …

Note from Suzanne:  And here I am given a true example of discernment as the message abruptly stopped.  There was nothing there.  It was a completely different feeling (connection vs. no connection).  At first I was confused, then the words began to flow again, and I “got it” – I understood that they were giving me a living example of today’s lesson …

… now pick us up again.  There.  Very good.  That is discernment.  It is often quite subtle, knowing what comes from spirit and what comes from ego.  Sit in the silence regularly and ask to be guided night and day.  Then, when the guidance comes you will be able to discern, “Is this a flower or a weed?  Can these words I safely heed?”

In the Stillness

“Be still, and know that I am God.”  This phrase you have heard before.  And have we not shared with you the phrase, “I am That”?  And now, hearing this, some of you will want to run out and do what you call “playing God.”  You will want to control all situations, for you reason, “I am That!”  In fact, being a part of That calls for just the opposite.  This is the part referred to as “being still.”  Be still and allow the greater aspect of the self—the part that has no need to control—to be in control.  Hmmm.  Yet another paradox.

Ego wants to control.  Spirit unfolds in the stillness as all parts of the All work together, not just one individual aspect.  Surrender to the knowledge that you are a part of That, and allow yourself to be guided … gently at times and unmistakably at others, but always from the stillness … that place of peace, not angst, that speaks to you softly and says, “All is well.”

Unleashed

There, on the wings of a butterfly you fly, for you do not die.  All is illusion to the physical eye.  There is no such thing as a pure blue sky.  Do you ever stop to wonder why?

Nothing truly is as it seems.  Do not let this confound you.  Perception is reality, so immerse yourself fully in your present reality, but do not become chained to it.  It is not the only reality.  Would you like to walk on the clouds in a world where the sky is violet?  Would you like to fly?  Just you wait. 

Does this sound fantastic?  How does the world appear in your dreams, where anything is possible?  Unleash your dreams here and now, where more is possible than you imagine, for you often fail to dream big enough. 

Unleash your imagination and fly.  Ride a butterfly across the sky.  There’s far more to living than meets the eye.

Only For a While

Saying goodbye is never easy when the one who is leaving is dear to the heart.  You miss one near to you in proportion to how much you love.  Celebrate your grief.  It is a sign that you have loved fully.  Yes, it is painful.  Of course you do not want to feel it, but would you have missed out on the joy as well?  Feel the pain, but do not hold onto it.  Wash it through you with your tears at the rate that is right for you.  Then you can get back to the love, which will always be there.

Your loved one is going away for a while, as will you some day, and then you will be reunited.  No separation is forever, for there is no such thing as forever, only spaces in between in which to know the full depth of feeling.  Celebrate the ups and downs, for they are all part of life.  It does go on, allowing you to love and love again.

You will see each other again, for love does not die. 
It is just a temporary goodbye.

Turning Pages

And in the end, there is only one thing that matters … did you grow?  That is why you are here.  Happily, growth comes naturally, so there is all likelihood that you will succeed in this chapter of your life.  Note that we call it a chapter, for there is no final chapter and no real end, merely a turning of the page for a new beginning … a cliff-hanger, we hope as you eagerly anticipate more to follow, with greater growth in the ongoing story of you.

Learn all that you can while you are here.  Soak up the lessons.  Grow greatly in your capacity to love yourself and others, and yours will be the greatest story ever told.

Exposure

Every day you walk about in a body is a Halloween.  Which mask will you wear today?   You are given this costume to learn.  You can use it any way you wish, for along with the body-costume comes free will.  Will you use it to hide behind or to shine behind?  Will you allow your true nature to peek through the two holes at the top of the face mask, or will you put a false smile upon the lips?

It is uncomfortable to wear a costume for too long.  As the true self grows, you can no longer stand to wear the mask.  Some day you get to the point where you must remove it completely and expose your self.  As long as that is a frightening thought, you are not quite ready, and that is all right.  Peel it back bit by bit or rip it off … at your own speed.  Working toward that goal is why you are here.  Be patient with yourself as you peek out from behind the costume.  Recognizing the costume for what it is is a step in the right direction.

Ever-Present

Do not allow your fears to consume you.  This is quite easy to do when you forget you are spirit in human form.  In the forgetting, ego takes over, and ego loves fear.  It holds you prisoner.  When you are tied up in your fears it is difficult to feel your true nature and to express it.  Love is held at bay whilst you fret about what is yet to come.  Perhaps the things you fear may come to pass and perhaps they will not.  What is happening now?  Are you fully present now?  Can you take a deep breath and be fear-free for a few moments?  Now carry that feeling with you to the next moment.  Was that so bad?  The future arrived and here you are again, now.  And how do you deal with now, now?  In the same manner.  Take a breath.  Be present, and remember who you are.  All else will come and go, but you as the love of God are ever-present.

Equilibrium

Balance … equilibrium … this is so very critical to your well-being.  Yes, we focus quite often on how your thoughts affect you, but how many of those thoughts come from a level you do not perceive?  How often do you find yourself out of sorts for no known reason?  This is quite likely the subconscious mind at work.  Do you ever wake up and feel out of balance when outside it is a beautiful day?  What happened in your dreams to have affected you this way?

We encourage you to install a barometer of sorts … one that will gauge your level of peace from moment to moment.  Bring more awareness to your waking, conscious state so that you can clear out the dust that is throwing you off balance. 

There are myriad ways to do this cleansing, and all involve the conscious use of your consciousness.  To clear your energy field you must first be aware that it is cluttered.  Slumber no longer.  Wake up and take charge of your equilibrium.

Note from Suzanne:  Do you live in or in the vicinity of The Villages, Florida?  Are you a regular follower of Sanaya's daily messages?  Have you never attended or only attended one or two live channeling sessions with Suzanne and Sanaya?  If you answered "yes" to all of the questions above, please email me at info@SuzanneGiesemann.com. Ho ho ho! 

In and Out

In and out, in and out.  The body is a perfect instrument for taking in what it needs and excreting what it does not.  You do this with the breath, with your water, with your food.  Even when you cry, you excrete toxins through the nose and eyes, refreshing the body.  Do not diminish the importance of clearing the bodies -- mental, emotional, spiritual, and physical.  All moves in a cyclical fashion, coming and going.  When energy gets jammed up and dammed up inside of the body, disharmony results.  Keep it moving.  Move the physical body in exercise, bringing in fresh air.  Flush the body with pure water, replenish it with health-giving foods, and feast upon joyful thoughts.  This is the prescription for wellness. 

In and out.  Breathe in the goodness of life and exhale that which no longer serves you.

Greater and Greater

Joy such as you have never known awaits you.  This is the point of life.  Are you not ever learning?  What do you learn?  Greater and greater knowledge, wisdom, strength, coping skills, and so on.  The point is:  learning is about “greater and greater” ... constant upward growth. 

All of life is about learning to express your true nature, which is Love.  Joy is experienced in this expression.  You may slip back a bit now and then in your learning, but always the thrust is upward and onward.  And so, greater and greater joy awaits you. 

But wait!  Are you not now wiser than in the past?  Have you not grown?  Do you not have the capacity to love even more now than in the past?  Of course you do.  So enjoy this moment fully. Sit in the joy, but know that greater and greater joy is guaranteed.  Yes, of course there will be great challenges along the way.  You are facing some now, but amidst the pain there will always be a glimpse of the joy that is ever-present and ever awaiting.  That is Life.  Enjoy It.

On Spirit Guides

Note from Suzanne:  I received an email this morning from someone who lost a loved one and wanted to know:  Do our loved ones become our spirit guides? 

Sanaya Answered:  Yes, some do, but not immediately, as you would know it.  There is a period of adjustment as they learn to operate in their new reality.  It is a period of great wonder, and for those who may have suffered in human form, a period of rest. 

They do take on tasks in the other reality, but this is not considered “work.”  It is the joyful fulfillment of service.  If there was a strong bond between you in human form, there will continue the desire to help from the other side.  And so, they will, indeed, watch over you and do their best to guide you without interfering in your life lessons.

Understand that all humans have one or more guides who accompany them for the duration of their stay in a body.  Others come and go as needed, performing various tasks.  Your loved ones with whom you have walked on earth fall into this latter category.  Call on them for help as needed.  Ask them to be at your side and to guide you, and there they will be.

In the meantime, you are never truly alone.  Your guides walk with you always, holding you up when you have no strength.  Call on them often, for they are all the more present when you ask.  They stand by, awaiting your call.  In this way you show your acknowledgment of their presence and allow them to help you even more. 

Always remember, you are more loved than you can imagine.

Perspective

As you prepare for one you love to pass to the next chapter of life you struggle.  It is not easy for you to let go.  They are off on a new journey.  For them it is a fresh start, to be filled with wonder.  For you, you are left with a new start as well, filled with absence, if that is how you choose to see it.

See with new eyes.  See through their eyes and rejoice in this passage.  Walk at their side in your mind’s eye and marvel at the wonders.  They are still alive … perhaps not in the sense that you know here, but more fully alive than ever before.  Feel the love that surrounds them.  Is this not what you have always wanted for your loved ones?  Rejoice.

You grieve only for yourself.  Do you see this?  Shift your consciousness to that of your loved one, and there can be no grief.  Envy, perhaps, but your time will come.  In due time.  For now, a small shift in perspective will make your journey less challenging.  It is all about perspective.

We love you so very much.  There is no need to suffer.

Allowing

There is not just you in this world.  And yet, you think that all others think as you do.  When they say and do things that would not have been what you would say and do, you are shocked, affronted, disappointed.  “How could they do such a thing?!”

They could do such a thing for they have free will.  They are here to express Consciousness, as are you.  You call it “playing God” when one tries to control others and events.  You are not in human form to play God … you are in human form for God to play as you.  There is quite a difference.

You play as God in form, but you are not the entirety of God.  All of you make up aspects of the Great Spirit, and as such there are billions of modes of expression.  How others choose to express their Godliness is up to them.  That is the beauty of it all.  Allow, allow, allow them to do so.  When others make choices and decisions contrary to those you would have made, allow these expressions of Consciousness, knowing that all is in Divine order. 

Sit back, breathe deeply, and observe the expressions of Life in peace.
