And herein is wisdom.
Our minds must be stayed on.(Deuteronomy
11:18).the
qualities the Creator exemplified when He came
out of the invisible and appeared in the person we know as Emmanuel.
And, He is love:.1John
4:7,8,16.
Never get upset about those
who may be talking about you 'behind your back'. At least they are thinking
of you! Ha ha! What others may think of you is none of your business and
what you may think of others is none of their business.
Staying away from gossip
and criticism helps to keep relationships
alive.
Psalms
69:1-4; 109:2-5. What is
a
way that could be used, if for
example you have to be around someone who dislikes or even hates you or
is perhaps a particularly obnoxious
individual, a bully
who may be bothering you, causing you to fret,
one you have a hard time liking, an obstreperous
coworker, someone who persecutes
you, a bully showing forth in some way that they just don't like you, etc.
or perhaps you may need grace and favor in the eyes of another or
others? Trials are for making us better:.Ezekiel
14:9. God is in charge of the evil as much as He is the good. Learn
why
evils?
In your quiet time, ask yourself
why so-and-so
is on the Earth at this time. See what comes to your mind.
Some people are out to turn
you into worse than they are:.Matthew
23:15 "...you make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves."
Those who are like this are
dying inside due to perhaps a lifetime so far, of desperately
needing recognition and love. Don't present yourself objectionably
as rejecting another. How you show up in the world matters. Keep another
on your side by not returning to him or her what they are being like to
you:.Matthew
22:36-40.
Pray for those who don't
seem to like you and try to turn them into friends. Do not be offensive
to othes:.Proverbs
18:19.
Draw them in somehow, perhaps
with questions of interest about the negative ways they are saying. Or
ask one of those in the invisible
realm to help you with what to say.
Pursue
peace in all your relationships, but if you don't want to 'see' or
sense the soul of those you look at, you are not pursuing peace. Learn
what you are like.
For example, one may accost
you, being upset with something you said that turned him or her down in
some way, something where he or she felt you were putting blame to them.
Bruno
Groening said that every human
being at their
core is good and divine,
even though at times, because of lacking spiritual strength, they take
in bad invective
thoughts and give them out in words and/or actions out of their low
consciousness thinking, causing dissension.
Have an attitude of wanting always to live from the best heart that you
can. Is the way you are, good for you and for others?
Have the attitude as exemplified
in this little story.
Have that same attitude and show it in your manner and in your words as
it helps to turn an enemy into a friend. Why would you ever want it to
be any different?.Matthew
5:44 "But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse
you, do good to them that hate you and pray for them which despitefully
use you and persecute you."
Agree with something true
you can find in whatever negative situation you have ended up in:.Matthew
5:25 "Agree with your adversary quickly, while you are in the way with
him..." Romans 12:18 "If it be
possible, as much as lies in you, live peaceably with all people."
Situation: someone cuts in
front of you when driving; he stops so you can't drive on; you get out
of your vehicle and he does the same; a breeding ground for conflict: You
say to him "Are you ok? Do you need help? Did you have the beginning of
a heart attack and had to quickly stop trying to get over to the curb?"
He says "You're an idiot, I was trying to turn at the next corner and had
my turn signal on and you just sped up so I couldn't get into the lane
to turn." You say "You know, I sped up so I could make the next light,
not to cut you off." "Well your still an idiot and need to learn how to
drive." "Well you're right. I've been called an idiot before when I've
been wrong and I'm still not a perfect driver all the time. Sorry for upsetting
you and causing you to miss your turn."
Situation: someone asks you
for money, maybe some bum and maybe for a couple of bucks. Have a budget
for such things:.Deuteronomy
17:17 "...neither shall he greatly multiply to himself silver and gold."
Matthew
5:42 "Give to him that asks you and from him that would borrow of you
turn not you away.".Always,
if you can, help. Do only good
to others.
It's good to see others'
points of view. It's not good to allow those points of view to negatively
affect you. Be careful what you accept as true. The dark side has many
tricks to keep you off of and away from Christ. Be careful
what you choose. If it doesn't seem to be of love, then it isn't, is
one way to find out for yourself. Another is:.Matthew
7:15-20.
"What about their point of
view? When you become aware
seeing things from another point of view, you become aware of the processes
of perception
and thinking and you'll be able to enter the
structure of control and reality."....Grigori
Grabovoi.
Never strive
with others. Those who you may have inner resistance toward, need your
love sent to them. We are all
connected as has been proven and they will be affected by what reaches
their heart from their soul,
sent to them by you through the invisible but very real spiritual waves,
unbeknownst
to their conscious mind.
Always look at yourself first,
as all you encounter in life is a mirror of the real you, your subconscious
as it is in its present state. Your relationships are a mirror of what
is really you. And you can change the way others are around you by love.(how?
and with great effectiveness).and
intention
in meditation.
Know this first. We project
onto others those things that we can't stand in ourselves, such as, if
you were at heart approaching others with dislike and anger, holding them
in disfavor for no reason or because of small annoyances.(he
cut me off in traffic, obviously on purpose).
Know also that others can only see you within the context
of their estimation
of you and to the degree
of their level of consciousness. For example some with higher levels of
consciousness would have a more favorable opinion of you than those at
lower levels. Taking responsibility provides amazing results when we take
action on that which we have just taken responsibility for. Take responsibility
to
love others no matter what:.Matthew
5:44. Try as best you can to see the other person separate from what
you may not like about them, that is, focus on the person, not on what
you see that you don't like.
One way to correct negatives
within us is to do what ancient Esther did:.Esther
4:15-17-5:1-3.
Others have to recognize
the best part of them in you; they can only relate to what it is that is
in them which they see in you. In this way you are a light:.Acts
13:47; Philippians
2:3 "Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory, but in lowliness
of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.".This
is what we are all looking for in another. This is how to be liked and
this is why we all need intuition.
You allow another to rob
you of any good state of mind you may have by making that peaceful happy
state dependent upon someone else. That is, if they are unhappy, it affects
you negatively. With this dependency, you'll never be truly happy. Life
is for you to manage well your being. Change the way you may have
of interpreting
another's behavior, realizing it's a reflection of what is in your own
subconscious. When you realize this, you can see your mindset being that
of negatives you recognize in others and then do something about it. You
can contemplate
it in your quiet time.
Get to know yourself,
including
your dark side,
in
meditation. Stop running away from yourself to somewhere else in your
mind. The way to love others is to love yourself. When you love yourself,
you need nothing from others, but are open to share in any love they may
have for you and vice
versa.
When you see in others those
things you do not like, they are the things in you that are striking a
cord in you. This is because we are all one at the
soul level.
Deal with it by quietly saying
to yourself "I love you!". Why?
David
also had the same things to deal with.(*).as
most of us today. David's words in these Psalms:.Psalms
109:3-5 "They compassed me about also with words of hatred and fought
against me without a cause. For my love they are my adversaries, but I
give myself unto prayer. And they have rewarded me evil for good and hatred
for my love."
Psalms
38:10-17 "My heart pants, my strength fails me. As for the light of
mine eyes, it also is gone from me. My lovers and my friends stand aloof
from my sore and my kinsmen stand afar off. They also that seek after my
life lay snares for me. And they that seek my hurt speak mischievous things
and imagine deceits all the day long. But I, as a deaf man, heard not and
I was as a dumb man that opens not his mouth. Thus I was as a man that
hears not and in whose mouth are no reproofs. For in you, O Lord, do I
hope. You will hear.(original
for 'thou wilt hear' is just 'answer'),
O Lord my God. For I said, Hear me, lest otherwise they should rejoice
over me. When my foot slips, they magnify themselves against me. For I
am ready to halt and my sorrow is continually before me."
And in a prophecy about Emmanuel:.Isaiah
53:7 "He was oppressed and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his
mouth. He is brought as a lamb to the slaughter and as a sheep before her
shearers is dumb, so he opened not his mouth."
What is real peace for the
world?."Real
peace is not just the absence of war, but the absence of all suffering,
all negativity", "With meditation
the black cloud of negativity dissolves."....David
Lynch, movie director, Oscar nominations for:.The
Elephant Man, Blue Velvet.and.Mullholland
Drive, founder of.David
Lynch Foundation for Consciousness Based Education and World Peace...davidlynchfoundation.org
See the David
Lynch video of him being honored.
In all relationships we
should endeavor
to bring peace to others:.Ephesians
4:3 "Endeavouring.(think
about what you could possibly do to better the situation; one
thing that works).to
keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond.(brings
and keeps things together).of
peace."
As much as you possibly can,
living within the principle of balance,
do things people like, not what they don't like:.Romans
12:18 "If it be possible, as much as lies in you.(Ephesians
6:6), live peaceably with all men.".One
way to do this.
David
of the Old Testament, did not let negative
things he did bother him for long:.2Samuel
12:16-23. David understood that he meant others no wrong and he prayed
for them, that they too would come to know God as he did. In this is harmony.
Those who may be difficult
to like, much
less love, have become that way due to circumstances and mindsets born
of greed, selfishness, confusion, abuse, control of others which is detrimental
to both individuals, neglect mentally, spiritually and/or physically,
etc.,
having caused such horrible evils upon others, being the children and adults
now being saved from the tunnels all over the world where these evil world
controllers kept them, perpetrating.satanic.atrocities
upon them.
No matter how bad an individual
may appear, think of it as the best they are able to be at any time you
may encounter them. And these satanic evil ones who've done such horrible
things to others won't be around for long now as now the
military are cleaning it all up. Trump has supported this effort.
You could think of such people
like this: That they were once a little boy or girl, that they must have
had some bad things occur to them to make them the way they now are.(presuming,
of course, that you have done nothing to cause them to react badly:.Philippians
1:9,10).and
that they have emotional ups and downs which further plague their personality.
When others antagonize
you undeservedly.(an
error you did not mean to have caused),
realize that where they are today is a result of the toll
life may have taken on them, that they were wholly inept.to
deal positively with. This will help you to
deal with such attitudes of the
ego people hold onto, because they see no other way.
Obnoxious
people are really saying 'no one loves
me and I hate it'. By being that way, obnoxious individuals receive
some of the attention.(part
of love).that
all of us need and crave.
Being very kind and showing
care and concern, even as
clumsily as you can, may not have an immediate effect. But consider,
who else is going to treat them that way? Not many. Probably, not any.
Most will repulse
from them.
Consider the wacky
world we live in that we must all deal with. We have the sociologists on
the one hand telling us that it's important to give and receive hugs daily.
And the feminists on the other hand saying "if you touch me, I'll charge
you with sexual harassment".
All of us have been affected by confusion in society such as this. The
demons are 'dancing' around many people's minds. Direct yourself only toward
good. Life at the ego level
can be hypocritical
and just plain nuts.
Your concern for this obnoxious
individual may not make a difference for years. But someday in the future,
that individual will look back and say to him/her self, that "there was
an individual who really cared, one who saw something in me and liked it
and oh how badly I mistreated him/her".
People do change.
Alcoholics
change, sex perverts,
abusers
and crooks do change. Not all of course, but some do. Why not all? There
can be no change unless one has unselfish vision for the future:.Proverbs
29:18. Many decide to change and later fall back:.Luke
8:4-15. And each
of us is responsible for that. Change can be effortless once we know
how.
Emmanuel
told someone.."...go
and sin.(sin
means to 'miss the mark').no
more". He just did not say 'sin no more'.(John
8:11).and
He was not getting after her to 'just go away from me'.
Maybe more would
want to change if we treated them with some love, concern and respect,
showing some hopefulness toward them rather than rejection and took a bit
of time to urge them to go onward in their lives, rather than shove them
away so that we are free to live out our selfish wants:.Galatians
5:22; 2Timothy 2:24.
What a wonderful feeling
to know that you have had a part in helping an individual become better.
You may never see it. The individual may have long moved on from you. But
you
will
be rewarded for your actions of love and concern and helpfulness:.Daniel
12:3. Pray for others, even if you see no
results. When you plant a seed, you may see not results for weeks, then
the plant begins to pop its head out of the ground:.Galatians
6:9 "And let us not be weary in well doing, for in due season we shall
reap, if we faint not."
The gospel.(means
'good news').is
a gospel of peace:.Ephesians
6:15. And we should be at work in our lives ensuring that as much peace
as possible occurs:.Romans
12:18.
Philippians
4:7 "And the peace of God which passes all understanding.(see
original at scripture link).shall
keep your hearts and minds through Christ Emmanuel."
Lack of peace comes from
self. Peace comes from God.
Focus on the spiritual. Saturate your mind with the truths of the Bible
if you feel so inclined. Don't do anything if you are not inclined to.
Listen
to your soul
and adhere to
its quiet prompts that are often overriden in the busyness of the daily
mind; that's why meditation.is
so important. It's your guidance. No listny, no guidy.
Study,
because the way of peace is something we can know:.Romans
3:17; Isaiah 59:8-14. A
peaceful or
warring nature are
things that are learned:.Isaiah
1:17; 2:4.(also
same in Micah 4:3);
2Peter
1:2-4. The way of peace is something
God
can guide us into now:.Luke
1:79. Isaiah
9:7 "Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no
end, upon the throne of David and upon his kingdom, to order it and to
establish it..."
For
others
not wanting that guidance...
So just what
did Emmanuel mean when He said that about peace and bringing a sword?.Matthew
10:34 "Think not that I am come to send peace on Earth. I came not
to send peace, but a sword."
If peace comes from God,
lack of peace has to do with the self's involvement in life.
If the Creator gave selfish
people peace in life so that they were completely and constantly.content,
what need would there be to continue on the spiritual pathway? They may
have no desire to
give to benefit others and because of that, drift into negativity and
you know what
that gets you. In life one is here to learn so he won't lose. To
bad ancient king Ahab of Israel hadn't learnt
that early in his life.
One must learn
contentment.
For this Earthly time, this
is what we are here for:.Matthew
22:37-40. Increase spirituality by giving. Giving
what? Give and you'll get rewarded:.Luke
6:38 "Give and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down
and shaken together and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For
with the same measure that you mete withal, it shall be measured to you
again."
What good is a battery with
only one polarity?
It is useless for its purpose. So the Great Infinite Intelligence designed
things so there would always be contrasts
and balance. Our natures are contrasting; we have low
consciousness and high
consciousness.potential.
You
choose which predominates
at any one time. And so we learn as we go along in life. Be quick as possilble
to learn; one reason
why.
We think in contrasts. We
learn
from contrasts. We know we are good and we know we can do bad.(evil
and good).and
sometimes it takes
the experience of ourselves in life or the learning from errors of
others.(which
is much easier on you).in
order to discover deeper things about ourselves:.Ephesians
3:10,18,19; Hebrews 5:14 to
6:2.
The more you know about yourself,
the more you are able to master
these things of the self. Negatives are there not to run from but to
deal with toward a happy outcome, that being a
reward.
Here it's important to be
in touch with your inner self, the self which fluorishes when
one is still, such as in meditation/prayer
time. The real
self of you fades into the background of living during our busy daily
lives. When we meditate, it's there. It's from this real self that balance
occurs and we can then move forward in life, as the hindrances
of experiences in the world melt away:.Zechariah
1:6 "But my words and my statutes, which I commanded my servants the
prophets, did they not take hold of your fathers? And they returned and
said, Like as the Lord of hosts thought to do unto us, according to our
ways and according to our doings, so has he dealt with us."
We have our
soul nature which whispers to us hundreds
of times a day, but we allow it to be so quickly overridden
with what we have become more comfortable with and those things are ego
concerns, the things of the self we've always had our minds on.
We humans must learn to respond
to God who talks to us through feelings
and through thoughts that well up in
the mind. Talk to God:.Hebrews
4:7. He's right there! He's always calling you:.Romans
10:21 "...All day long I have stretched forth my hands unto a disobedient
and gainsaying people.".God
always listens:.Revelation
3:20 "Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If any man hear my voice
and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him and he
with me." Matthew 7:7-11 "Ask
and it is given you. Seek and you will find. Knock and it is opened unto
you. For every one that asks receives and he that seeks finds and to him
that knocks it is opened. Or what man is there of you, whom if his son
ask bread, will he give him a stone? Or if he ask a fish, will he give
him a serpent? If you then, being evil.(original
is 'having a painful life full of labors'),
know how to give good gifts unto your children.(even
a suffering dad would
still do his best to help his children),
how
much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to
them that ask him?"
How would I know if God is
speaking to me by means of these prompts? If you are trusting in God, you'll
act on the prompts that come to your mind, trusting the results also to
be good. If you discount the prompts, you won't act on them because you
don't trust them and you don't trust them because you aren't sure they
are from God and therefore you should not act on them. So, it's
a growing in trust.
The ego concerns are the
things the beings of the dark side watch for. It's a beacon
for them to come and influence those not of a higher consciousness:.1Thessalonians
5:5,6 "You are all the children of light and the children of the day.
We are not of the night, nor of darkness. Therefore let us not sleep, as
do others, but let us watch and be sober." 1Peter
5:8 "Be sober, be vigilant.(*),
because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walks about, seeking
whom he may devour.".1Peter
1:13-16.
Prompts
come to one's mind.(how,
when).so
it can be determined if one is fit to move on in truth, becoming part of
the great invisible kingdom of Christ. Prompts are for awakening a person
to the reality of his being:.2Timothy
1:9.
This is so because God
never overrides anyone's mindset,
but waits for him to 'open the gate':.Revelation
3:20 "Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If any man hears my voice
and opens the door, I will come in to him and will sup
with him and he with me." Matthew
13:18-23 "Hear you therefore the parable of the sower. When any one
hears the word of the kingdom and comprehends it not, then comes the wicked
one and catches away that which was sown in his heart. This is he which
received seed by the way side. But he that received the seed into stony
places, the same is he that hears the word and anon
with joy receives it, yet has he not root in himself.(not
really sure God is actually him in expression:.Romans
1:16), but endures for a while,
for when tribulation or persecution arises because of the word, by and
by he is offended. He also that received seed among the thorns is he that
hears the word and the care of this world and the deceitfulness of riches,
choke the word and he becomes unfruitful. But he that received seed into
the good ground is he that hears the word and understands it; which also
bears
fruit and brings forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty."
Are we like pharaoh
of ancient Egypt in the time of the Israelites ready to leave Egypt, where
he constantly discounted what he was hearing, seeing and experiencing?.Exodus
14:4. As is easily noticed, ego actions are just nuts!.Exodus
14:23-28.
Exodus
8:19 "Then the magicians said
unto Pharaoh, This is the finger of God and Pharaoh's heart was hardened
and he hearkened not unto them; just as the Lord had said."
This pharaoh was stubborn
and had no integrity.
First, he...The story and the miracles.(Exodus
7:7-25; 8:1-32; 9:1-35;
10:1-29;
11:1-10;
12:1-51),
as well as the amazing pillar of cloud and of fire:.Exodus
13:21.
"The struggle of the spirit
for its true place in the world.(and
what's that?), as well as the struggle
of your soul for personification of the Creator, develop your intellect
and mind control."....Grigori
Grabovoi. The world is a
stage for this.
We are here to fully function
as creators and to do this, it's important to become as the Creator is;
not overriding our personalities, not being a clone,
but functioning with the
same high consciousness character, which allows the Creator-God to
express an individuality of His presence that you are here to express as
you grow in comprehension of higher consciousness. In this way we are the
Creator's expressive personality:.Isaiah
57:19.
One needs to be alert
to each thought that comes to mind and consider what it is that should
be done with each thought. This is making the best of the guidance that
comes to you. Difference between thoughts can be noticed when the overall
principle of love is considered. Love includes many things. Learn
them if you want life to be better for all.
We learn
from our dark side when we look at it and acknowledge it. It dissipates
then. If we shove it into hiding, it just becomes more of a problem.
We see how horrible something
is and decide to want never to be like that and to avoid it, etc. We are
here to think and learn from the contrasts we become aware of. We know
the good because we can see the difference when comparing the opposite.
Some people are away from this comprehension
and may need a storm to awaken them:.Psalms
83:13-15 "O my God, make them like the whirling dust, the wind blowing
the stubble
away. As the fire burns a wood and as the flame sets the mountains on fire,
so persecute them with your tempest and make them afraid with your storm."
We appreciate the sunshiny
still and gentle breeze days so much more after a long bout
of cold cloudy 'angry' weather. Angry
people bring angry weather because all in the multiverse
is connected. Angry weather is due to collisions
in the atmosphere
caused by people trapped in a nightmare of not being in charge of themselves
and so at war with themselves. Collisions in life are caused.similarly.
As Deepak said."The
storm we run from never passes."
We have negative and positive.(example),
high and low, fast and slow, acid and alkaline, life and death, hunger
and fullness, male and female, light and dark, up and down, good and evil,
which is basically under the overview of pain and pleasure; we experience
joy and sadness, we see the Sun giving light, it's hot, moon receiving
and reflecting light, it's cold, fire and water, warm and cold-blooded
animals and on and on.
The Creator uses contrasts
too. Consider the
old and new covenants.being
drastically
different!
Thank God that He is a Creator
of balance. What if He was not? What if He set the weather patterns up
so results would be just snow and snow, day after day, say for 10 months
of the year? After shoveling for a few weeks and seeing no end in sight
to the continually falling snow, you would have to drastically change your
life style.
You may move to where there
was no snow, but what if also it was just so hot that it was dangerous
to go outdoors?
Thank Him for what he has
designed; that life for the most part is relatively comfortable, though
we often complain about inconveniences that seem like big negatives. We
just will never get any big negatives from God.
The tough part of life often
comes from government regimes,
regimes which subjugate
people in various
overt
and subtle ways,
mostly controlling populaces by controlling money in its various forms.
But the Creator is in control of all, has set it all up for his 'human
processing factory', to bring
all to get to
know Him, but each individually in a way which He determines.
Each day has enough evil
in it to cause us to move forward:.Matthew
6:34. But for some it's
sadder.
One reason we see the pendulum
swinging back and forth in this seemingly endless and often trial filled
and frustrating search for what works, what works to get love, what works
to acquire wealth, security, stable relationships and
the
other things we all want, is because we
lack all we need to effectively fashion our individual minds so life
becomes a joy in all areas.
