Summary: do not concentrate on the transient but on the eternal, don’t compare yourself to others but to God, don’t condemn yourself, we must walk in humility and dependence on God, not seeking nirvana, only in God can maturity and self-knowledge be found.
My children, I love you and bless you, My Spirit and angels minister to you constantly, providing you with all you need to receive your eternal inheritance, but this is not the case for those under the lordship of another, those of the world. It grieves Me to see so many who consider themselves so wealthy when they are, in truth, destitute, so many believing themselves to be clothed in such finery when all they possess are but filthy rags. They concentrate on the transient, not the eternal, surrounding themselves with riches which will run through their fingers as grains of sand, for all that is built on avarice, envy and bitterness is an abomination to the Father and has no place in the eternal realms. Yet they may still gain their salvation and their inheritance, if they would but turn to Me, but they are caught in the ways of the world, reckless, ever hurtling deeper into deception and blindness, never stopping to consider eternity, their consciences darkened to love, deadened to Me, caring not for the Father’s greatest and most beloved creation, instead concentrating on fleeting glory and worthless trinkets. They have far to come, already consumed with envy, greed and bitterness, defiling all they touch, abhorrent to the eyes of the Father.
But you My children are different, a new creation in Me, My Spirit in constant accord with yours as you become more aware and more repelled by the defilement of the world, living by a higher standard, not comparing yourselves to your peers but to Me, setting no lower a standard than perfection itself. But My children I implore you, do not become downcast when you fall short, for My grace is sufficient and offered freely to those in need, so all may ultimately match the radiance of My character, conforming perfectly to My image.
Always remember that each one of you is precious to us and never enter into the sin of self-condemnation, for all who are in the light appear dark and sinful, and those who consider themselves fair reside themselves in darkness or half-light. Is it not easier to hide blemish and deformity in the shade, where little can be seen and My ways easily be flaunted. But by being in the light you bring Me much pleasure and honour from your simple act of choosing Me, coming to Me, for the repenting of your sinful behaviour, for drawing on the benevolence of My body and blood, for allowing Me to sanctify your souls. Yes, you who walk in humility and dependence on Me are much blessed, far more than those who follow their own path, looking within themselves to calm their own soul, untouched by the conviction of My Spirit. These people may feel they have discovered nirvana but I tell you most solemnly they will find the seed of Adam bitter and defiled in the time of trial, being helpless, alone and condemned. But you My children shall be in Me, I shall shoulder your burdens and bring you into unity with one another, your cares and your woes shall seem as nothing, lost in the sense of fellowship and warmth. Your lives shall radiate with My glory, never becoming dry or stagnant, but ever coming into My presence, ever stretching out for My embrace, flowing, flourishing and fruitful. Yes, it is only in Me that maturity and self-knowledge can be found, only by reaching out to the hands that made you. The answer does not lie in your own soul but in the arms of your Creator, in being part of the new creation in Me, burning with My sacred fire, ready to receive all I have to give, knowing and accepting your true worth in Me, united, fragrant and fruitful for all eternity. Amen.
