-real life: It has been said that this life is just the carry on point for continued awakening in an endless journey, the struggle for existence and for hope in this 'womb' of physical existence; but, the next step of life.(for those of love -why?).is the 'real' life; real living that is, in comparison to the life most people are having today. The next step of life is found inside you and it brings a whole new world. You see, just as there are many layers in the invisible reality, so it also is in the physical reality, right here, right now, because all the physical comes from the invisible.

There will be no more tears. There will be no more heartaches. There will be no more of the severe trials, tests and sufferings that so predominate existence here. And, the Creator allows nothing to be taken away that's good.

Without understanding the importance of this next life, a life of transition from ordinary consciousness into higher consciousness, we risk cutting ourselves short of the reward we could have achieved.

Don't be in for disappointments. Trust the Creator. Belief is the key:.James 5:14 "Whereas you know not what shall be tomorrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appears for a little time and then vanishes away." 1Corinthians 15:19 "If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable."

Those looking forward to real living possess constant joy, no matter what this life throws at them because they have assurance for what is next.

-Jealousy: Joseph had a dream which he unwisely shared with his brothers of several women. His brothers were jealous because of parental favoritism and his dreams:.Genesis 37:3,4,8. The solution, his brothers figured, was to get rid of Joseph:.Genesis 37:18-24. And so is recorded the first conspiracy.

Feelings of jealousy and envy come from thoughts that have programmed us to react to situations with feelings of jealously and envy. Like all things there are two sides to them, a positive and a negative. Envy is grieving at the good of another. Jealousy and envy are feelings. And so we should be always on the qui vive for negative thoughts, which are thoughts which hurt ourselves eventually and others probably immediately.

Simply be alert as to what is going on with yourself. The feelings of jealousy.("I'm upset she has that").and envy.("I wish I had what she has":.Philippians 4:11; Hebrews 13:5).are negative feelings from the ego level that can either make you feel inadequate or queue you to have better thoughts, those of higher consciousness:.Proverbs 27:4 "Wrath is cruel and anger is outrageous, but who is able to stand before envy?"

God too has feelings. Where do you think our ability to have feelings came from? The Creator was very jealous over the people He loved so much:.Exodus 19:5; 34:14; Deuteronomy 7:6-26; 8:1-20; 9:1-29; 10:15.

And God is the same today. God so much wants people to experience all the good they can, but like the lesson of Moses, whose attitude slayed him, so can ours.

However God no longer is as He was in Old Testament times because now His jealousy toward humanity has been compensated for by the death of His Son Emmanuel:.1Corinthians 7:23,24 "You are bought with a price. Be not you the servants of men.  Brethren, let every man, wherein he is called, therein abide with God.".All negatives for all time were laid upon Him who came to reconcile all things:.Colossians 1:20 "And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in Earth or things in heaven." 2Corinthians 5:19 "To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them and has committed unto us the word of reconciliation.".Through this, all anger, all sin and all wrath are gone. Why?.John 3:17 "For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through him might be saved.".Colossians 3:11-17.

The whole lesson of the Old Testament was, be of God and things go well or leave off God and welcome again to the 'normal' life, being that of low consciousness.

If we love God there is separation from all that would threaten God from activity of love through us:.1John 4:8-16. To give attention in spiritual things to other than the true God is fragmenting one's attention, thus allowing some 'pin pricks' to get to you. The ancients were like this. At first they mixed their worship of the true God and with idols and then slipped away from God altogether:.1Kings 11:6-11; 15:12-14; 22:42,43; 2Kings 17:9-15.

Deuteronomy 32:16-18 "They provoked him to jealousy with strange Gods, with abominations provoked they him to anger. They sacrificed unto devils, not to God; to Gods whom they knew not, to new Gods that came newly up, whom your fathers feared not. Of the Rock that begat you, you are unmindful and have forgotten God that formed you."
