We see with our mind. If we are asleep, we see a dream. If we are awake, we see the Truth. 

As a sleeping embryonic soul, our physical eyes are part of the image of our dream self, as is all our body. Therefore, our physical eyes don’t see truth, they see the dream our mind projects. Our physical eyes are simply the projectors of our mind’s thoughts. As a sleeping soul they see a dream, just like the image of our self in a night dream sees the dream and not us sleeping in a bed.

As we awaken from the dream, we recognize that all we’ve seen and thought was true, was only an illusion. True vision comes from within, where our mind’s eye is able to see the Truth beyond the illusionary reality. It’s here we perceive the Light by learning from the Spirit of Truth. As our mind awakens to the Light of Truth, how we perceive through our physical eyes changes. This change in vision brings about our metamorphosis from a sleeping embryonic soul to an awakened soul, a fount of living waters, a gate for the divine thoughts of God.

In this metamorphosis of mind, we begin to see the dream as unreal. As our mind’s eye fully opens to the Light, we begin to see reflections of peace as our physical eyes begin to project peace. We transition from darkness where what we see within and without is void of Truth, to the Light where what we see within and without is one with Truth.

Our individualized will determines what our mind’s eye sees.

The turning of our will from serving and manifesting the darkness of the dream (fearful thoughts) to serving and revealing the Light (divine thoughts) is central to the metamorphosis of our mind.

Our individualized will is the center of our thinking mind. It’s the decision maker our mind follows. It judges what is good and bad, right and wrong, true and false. According to its judgments, our mind projects and manifests the reality we see. It’s the realm of choice, and we chose what we see.

Our mind can be governed by fear or divine love, it’s the choice afforded by our free will. When it’s governed by fear, we walk in darkness unaware of truth. When it’s governed by divine love, we rest in emergence and experience the reflections of Truth.

As part of our development as an embryonic soul, we experience a dream of darkness that our will may know and freely chose divine love. As we return to the Light, we are simply becoming aware of who we are as one made in the likeness of God. We learn from the gentle voice of the Spirit of Truth that divine love resides in the present moment. As we rest in emergence, we can abide in the present moment and experience the peace it inherently possesses.

In emergence, we make a free will choice to become an observer to see all situations as divinely orchestrated. We no longer judge the present moment but greet each moment without complaining, welcoming instead the entrance of peace.

Emergence is a supra-conscious act of the divine Mind because it orchestrates our present moment for the highest good of all. This level of orchestration far exceeds anything an individualized mind could create. When the mind is full of the Light of Truth, it sees every present moment in the peace the Truth projects. The will no longer seeks to create a specific form based reality, instead it rests in the knowledge that the supra-conscious will create a reality of ever-present peace.

Initially, it’s a challenge to rest in emergence as we push through fear. Fear tempts us to judge our present in a negative light and seek to physically change it. But the Spirit constantly reminds us that our reality changes from within, not without. As we direct our will to no longer serve fear, our present moment is revealed for what it always has been; an intimate reflection of our Creator’s divine love. This perfection of orchestrated thought that creates harmony and peace for all only occurs when we rest in divine emergence, where we are a gate to divine thought. In this, we pass through the narrow gate of metamorphosis and return to the Light.

We followed your River of Life until we returned to the Light. This is the Righteous Reign. 

For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. ~ 1 Corinthians 15:53

As we meld into the divine Mind, we experience a natural, logical and systematic integration. The divine Mind (mind of Christ) isn’t a spiritualized idea beyond our attainment, but about becoming who we truly are and always have been. It isn’t fantastical or magical, but a real metamorphosis of our mind, giving it ability to process divine thought. It’s growing in soundness of mind through a transformation into the spiritual realm (thought-system) of abundance. Divine thoughts conveyed through this mind are able to translate the reality around us into eternal peace, harmony, and joy.

The source of what we see is our mind.

As an immortal fractal of the divine Mind, our mind is like an open gate to the one divine Mind. In this, we are each the creative consciousness center of reality. True vision comes from the divine Mind and has the ability to transform our reality from things to fear, into a reality of peace and harmony. Vision shapes energy into the reality of forms we experience. What we see begins with what we see within. What we see within defines our thoughts. Our thoughts and the energy they project shape our reality and all our experiences. Thus, true transformation begins with perceiving the Truth which then our thoughts and the beliefs support. Transformation through our thought life is how we engage the divine mind we all share and embrace its power to transform us from the inside out.

Because our thoughts create our reality, other people and situations appear as we inwardly perceive them. They are reflections of our thoughts and thought energy. What we experience does not often appear immediately correlated to our thoughts, but it is a result of thought energy. For example, if we cater to fearful thoughts in one area, we’ll create fearful experiences in other areas. This connection often goes unrecognized to the sleeping mind as it doesn’t clearly see how it is creating its reality. We are the source of the fear energy thus we are the ones creating situations to fear. The reality follows our thoughts. Our reality isn’t separate from us, it is a projection of our minds. By the renewing of our minds, our realty can be greatly altered. If the reality was the cause of our experiences and not our thoughts, we would be in inescapable bondage.

• If we complain (projecting thoughts of dissatisfaction), we continually create situations to complain about.
• If we rush (projecting thoughts of lack of time), we create situations where we never have enough time.
• If we are unforgiving with anyone (projecting thoughts of guilt), we suffer from a poor and degrading image of ourself.
• If we think in lack whether physically, emotionally or spiritually, we experience lack.
• If we hold fearful thoughts, we create fearful situations.
• If we extend hurtful thoughts, we create things that induce hurt.
• If we think we are vulnerable, we create harm and suffering.
• If we condemn, we create reflections that induce more judgment.
• If we have attack thoughts, we create a reality that attacks us.
• If we are dishonest, our reality is dishonest with us.
• If we have a taking mentality, then our reality takes from us.

Mindful Spirit-Led Practice

Our reality and our experiences change through the renewing of our mind. A prayerful, spirit-led practice retrains and reorients our mind to see differently, therefore create a different reality. As we daily sit with the Spirit of Truth, our minds receive divine thoughts. Throughout our day, the Spirit will bring these divine thoughts to our awareness as it retrains our minds according to Truth. As these divine thoughts come to mind, we are able to replace contrary thoughts with Truth.

When we complain about our present moment, it’s because we fear what it might bring. By being lead by the Spirit, we learn to rest in emergence where divine thoughts can be conveyed and experienced rather than harboring fearful thoughts about what we experience or perceive. Initially this rest is difficult because fearful thoughts have owned our mind. Yet, the present moment is where we experience the expressed love of God. When we rest in the present rather than complain, we become consciously aware of God’s love which drives out all fear from our thoughts. When there is no fear in our thoughts, then we will not create anything to fear in our reality.

As the Spirit connects us to the divine Mind, our mind is transformed and able to convey divine thoughts. God’s divine thoughts begin to flow through us, and in this our reality starts to become one of unalterable peace, invulnerability, harmony and joy.

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

~ Romans 12:2

As we gaze into the Sacred Looking Glass, the living light from the Holy Altar illuminates our mind transforming our thoughts into liquid gold. We enter a metamorphosis marked by the rumblings of transformation as our mind methodically becomes united with the four pillars of the Altar of Truth (Divine Self, Timelessness, Law of Love, Emergence).

Truth begins to illuminate our mind to such a depth and degree that it transforms us from the false image of our self into expressions of our true Self, an immortal fractal of the divine Mind. Up to this point we understood concepts of Truth (the purpose of our prodigal journey), but now we become reflections of Truth. During this metamorphosis, light invades the darkness, truth consumes the lies, divine love drives out fear, forgiveness replaces judgment, and perceptions of illusions become knowledge of Truth.

As we meld with the divine Mind and rest in emergence, we gain victory over the lingering illusions in our mind. Illusions exist because our beliefs support them. Thoughts, energetic projections of our beliefs, extend out from us and give shape to the reality we perceive. In emergence, we stop catering to illusions. The past no longer determines our present moment or future, and we no longer seek to control or govern our future. Emergence is a present-minded state of being that allows our thoughts to become divine, which create reflections of eternal peace and joy.

In emergence, we no longer pay attention to the forms of reality originally created by our discordant thought energy. Instead, we attune inwardly to the energetic vibrations of Truth, which extend gratitude outward. We no longer appease our fears through the multitude of idols established to protect and defend ourselves. Instead, we turn to the Truth within by which we create nothing to fear. As we rest in emergence, the divine Will moves through us in ways beyond our conscious awareness and fashions our present moment in the perfection of peace and harmony for all.

As our mind shifts from dreaming to waking (from illusion to Truth), we experience metamorphic rumblings signifying our transformation. Our mind experiences an energetic confrontation of our two opposing belief systems that manifest as rumblings in our emotional and physical sensory experiences as it tries to decipher its truth:

Is our truth what we perceive with our bodily senses even though it counters what we’ve been taught by the Spirit OR is our truth the revelations we’ve received from the Spirit of Truth despite what we see? 

These metamorphic rumblings result from our mind’s struggle between the apparent truth of the perceived reality and the teachings of peace revealed by the Spirit of Truth. It’s a “David and Goliath battle” between the core beliefs of these two opposing thought-systems; most significantly that love is conditional (unkind) verses love is unconditional (kind), thus it’s a “war in heaven, the realm of love”.

Because of these rumblings our beliefs come head to head in which only one belief system remains standing. Despite the illusion’s taunting, our faith, which has been perfected in Truth, overcomes the illusion. No matter now real and powerful the illusion appears, faith enables us to rest in emergence (the divine orchestration of our present moment in accordance for the best interests of all).

These rumblings fill our sensory experiences to cause us to engage our will so we transition from one spiritual realm (thought-system), to the other. They require us to push into Truth in a way we otherwise couldn’t, but in a way that is necessary for the metamorphosis of our mind, from which all of reality is manifested. As we rest in emergence instead of running to our idols, these rumblings serve to awaken our mind. It transitions from creating a dream where we suffer the effects of giving and receiving conditional love, to unveiling the Real where our true Self only gives and receives unconditional love. For a mind that has abided in darkness where love was unkind and created endless witnesses to this belief, the mind is seemingly at war within itself as it questions and tests its true beliefs.

These rumblings are a powerful and deceptive tactic that appear to affect the wellbeing of ourself and others. Striking at the very heart of our belief system, they taunt and tempt us to find peace in idols. These illusions are physically experienced, therefore the only way they are overcome is through divine emergence. The Truth we hold is able to defeat the apparent realness of these strong delusions and replace them with reflections of peace.

Our mind resists letting go of what it currently believes. The mind learned to believe that what it sees is true, yet its has been taught by the Spirit that what it sees actually violates Truth (i.e. fear, suffering, pain, lack, death, decay). It’s a very difficult transition for the mind. However, the blessed gift of emergence, where the mind is fully given over to divine Truth, assures that we will no longer create a reality according to our old belief system. All we once thought, believed and held onto erroneously as truth is released, cut off, and purged.

All things become new.

For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world— our faith. ~ 1 John 5:4

Our true meaning is contained in the meaning of God.

God’s meaning is our meaning. We give expression to Truth and Divine Love (the Spirit essence of God) in ever expanding fractal components (where the meaning of the whole abides in each part). In this, God is all in all. We accomplish this expression through the Law of Giving or Creating Gain/Eternal Growth, which manifests eternal Life.

Many have searched for their own personal meaning, which encompasses the desire and search for purpose, value and significance. However, true meaning can’t be found in a reality of illusions and dreams; where what we physically see isn’t Truth, but images created by our thoughts cast upon the screen of our sleeping mind.

Seeking true meaning among illusions causes us to endlessly search for meaning where it isn’t found. It sends us on endless attempts to try to fill that void with finite imaginings whose fleeting fulfillment leave us empty and feeling meaningless. In this confusion of what is Truth and what is illusion, we apply erroneous meaning to the reality around us, and as a result we blind ourselves to Truth. We sought for what can only be found in an awakened state. So if you are feeling this reality is meaningless in itself, you are right. This acknowledgement can be a step toward finding the highest meaning you could possibly possess, the meaning you possess right NOW and always have.

The meaning of the embryonic sleep, the dream, is to perceive in darkness what we can’t in the Light. The embryonic sleep’s purpose is to reveal God to us, and to know our true Self, which is God’s Self, in a way not possible in the Light, because in the Light we and God are indistinguishable to our conscious experience.

The only meaning of the darkness is to know our true Self, which isn’t the false image we created of ourselves in our dream. If we seek meaning among the images of our false self we remain lost in the darkness of sleep. The deep knowing that we are created by God, and yet the apparent disconnect from being God’s magnificent expression is present to prompt us to seek beyond the illusions for our true meaning, thus our true Self.

As a fractal component, containing the whole in the part, we had to see beyond ourself to our Creator so we could truly know our true Self thus our Creator. The only way to see beyond our Self, who is the Self of God, is by a reality of contrast to that Self. Otherwise we would not perceive God and though we would be created in perfection, we would not contain the meaning and fullness of God’s expression. We would not perceive divine love’s sovereignty over us and through us, thus we would be unable to experience joy from intimacy with of God. This knowing of God’s Self as our own, in oneness, comes through the contrast of darkness, and allows us to fully partake of the divine Mind. In the awareness of our shared divine Mind, we eternally expand and grow, i.e. possess eternal Life.

Our true meaning is to give God expression.

Without creation God remains unformed and uncreated. To give God expression we need to be one Mind with Him, thus recognize we are a fractal component of the one Mind and not a separate “perfected” mind, which we would have been without this temporary dream state. As a fractal component, we possess all the characteristics of the whole, and we eternally expand through fractal multiplication. The union of the Spirit of Truth (God) and our individualized soul (consciousness center), expresses our and God’s shared meaning and purpose; to eternally extend creation in Truth and Divine love.

Do you see how valuable, precious and sacred you are? Whether you see it now or not, you are, NOW. This Truth can’t be altered as your true meaning can’t be altered because it is one with God’s. To become aware of your true meaning, you have to look beyond the illusion, which is reality as you currently perceive it. You have to remove all the meaning you applied to it in error and seek its true meaning, and in doing so you find your own. If you hold onto the meaningless as meaningful, you stay asleep. If you embrace this Truth, you will see yourself and all your reality in a new Light, one that leads to eternal Life, and has meaning beyond what you ever imagined.

Our perception determines our experiences in the dream. What and how we perceive with our mind’s eye, we create in the dream reality. It’s a “reality” that reflects our thoughts back to us, and our thoughts are our experience; emotionally, spiritually, and physically. Our reality reflects the meaning we give to it.

For true forgiveness (release from all pain and suffering), to occur within us in all its healing power, we need to see that we can’t be harmed or cause harm. The present moment always allows a release from pain by welcoming divine love’s creation of perfect harmony and peace that sends us onto a new trajectory. However, with blindness to this ever-present gift we needlessly “choose” to stay in our pain and suffering. When the ability to harm and cause pain is real to us, it’s difficult to truly forgive ourselves and others, but when we see it as a faulty perception of our minds, we find a deep release whereby we cease to create harm and pain. Can the Self of God (our true Self) be harmed or cause harm? No, and as we awaken out of the reality of pain we created in error, we experience our true Self and this Truth.

What we believe we experience. Who we believe we are, we experience. The meaning we choose to apply, we experience. In this dream reality, we experience our thoughts, not Truth, unless our thoughts are of Truth. We are the only ones that subject ourselves, emotions, bodies and reality to pain which we do by our free will choice. We can make another choice.

To see ourselves as invulnerable and invincible is to choose to see our true Self as revealed by the Spirit of Truth, otherwise we are holding onto an illusion we’ve made real to our mind thus experience in our reality.

The Truth sets us free. In the awareness of Truth there is only divine love in which there is no pain or suffering. When we rest in the emergence of divine love in the present moment, we cease to create harm and pain and in its place we create harmony and peace. As we awaken, we experience a reality that increasingly reflects this Truth.

Love is Light.

As we accept the bountiful gift of emergence, we become the Altar of Truth and its radiant Light. The gate of Heaven stands open for all to enter into the divine love of God.

As we look back on our prodigal journey, we see its perfection. We didn’t know its end, though we felt its call. Every step, struggle, pain, disappointment and what we thought we lacked drove us up the mountain of Truth until we found what we were seeking and our journey’s end. The Spirit of Truth was our most brilliant guide, who for not one step left our side. From the vision at the mountain top, we see our journey was the most loving path we could have walked. Its end is the beginning of awakening into divine love, which we give to all through emergence. We are beyond grateful.

In the present moment of a timeless mind, we only experience divine love as our present moment unfolds in the perfection for the highest good for all. Divine love fulfills every need perfectly rebuilding, restoring and renewing. Where there once dwelt illusions of lack, loss, compromise and sacrifice, they fade in the dawning Light of our awakened soul. All that were bound are now revealed as limitless and free.

Now we begin a new journey unfolding through emergence.

As we awaken to the Laws of Truth, our Mind is set free.

As we marvel at the shining pillar of Truth upon the Holy Altar, our mind’s eye is filled with a joyous sparkle as we realize our mind is freed from the reign of darkness. In the undeniable Light of Truth, the dreaming mind loses all power to continue to create an illusionary reality.

Whatever thoughts the mind believes even if they aren’t of Truth, it projects and creates. Thoughts are strengthened by laws that support them, whether the lower laws of the dream or the Laws of Truth. The more deeply rooted a law, the more definitively it’s believed and expressed, therefore the more difficult it is to uproot. For example, the lower law that all must die is deeply engrained into the dream’s thought-system, it’s strongly believed and therefore consistently expressed.

The lower laws of the dreaming mind contradict Truth, which is only possible in a dream. Established by erroneous past learning, lower laws only exist because the mind believes them. Their source is darkness, the absence of Truth, therefore they have no true source. Once the mind stops believing them, they lose power, and cease to create an illusionary reality.

Along our sacred journey, the Spirit of Truth methodically reveals to us the Laws of Truth, by which our divine Mind functions. These higher laws have always existed because their Source is ever-present Truth. However, until the soul began its prodigal journey to the Light, these Laws remained unknown. In its dream state, the soul believed a contradictory thought-system based on lower laws, which put the soul under an illusionary bondage that caused great suffering.

The function of the Spirit of Truth is to transform our belief system from the lower laws to the higher laws, which give expression to our true Self. This transition isn’t simple, because our false beliefs are deeply rooted with many “witnesses”.  These witnesses are faulty projections of the dreaming mind, but the sleeping soul doesn’t know that until it begins to receive revelation from the Spirit. Then it begins to question everything it once believed and with this openness of mind, it begins to grow in the awareness of Truth. The Spirit’s perfect and systematic instruction reveals an integrated thought-system based on the Laws of Truth. Because our mind can’t believe in two contradictory thought-systems, as our faith increases in the higher laws, our belief decreases in the lower laws. We remain under the Spirit’s perfect tutelage until our mind obtains an operational awareness of the thought-system of Truth in which we join in oneness with the Spirit and create according to the higher laws.

As our mind’s eye awakens to the singular Source of the Light of Life, the Altar of Truth, a monumental shift occurs in our mind. We clearly see the Laws of Truth extending from this true Source. Simultaneously, we see the lower laws are not of this Source. With our faith perfected in this Holy Light, our mind comprehensively denies the illusion its physical eyes behold because it plainly sees it has no source. In a quiet moment of infinite power, the mind makes a transformative shift at the root of its belief system, ending the continuous manifestations of illusions.

Upon our mind’s release, our deliberate and methodical integration into the higher laws of Truth commences. Through emergence, as our conscious awareness is joined with the supra-conscious (our shared Mind with God that is beyond our conscious awareness), we begin to create according to the Laws of Truth. Freed from the lower laws, our present moment trends upward as it is orchestrated for the highest good for all. As we rest, the supra-conscious in its quiet power unfolds the perfect present moment, like the gentle yet all-powerful ascent of light into the darkness. This power of emergence resides in the pre-creative space at the origin of our soul, beyond our awareness. We don’t know what the next moment will bring, but we know it will increasingly reflect our true Source, and this magnificent unfoldment is our eternal joy.

As the dream fades and Eternal Peace emerges, we experience ever-increasing favorable present moments because Peace emerges through us. The Laws of Truth create what the lower laws never could; a free Mind that creates peace on earth and good will to all.

The Laws of Truth in relation to the lower laws they override:

• Law of Truth: Only Truth is real and nothing else exists; only in an illusion is Truth not expressed.
• Law of Holy Birth: All must awaken into the true Self, all can not die.
• Law of Life: Life is a multiplication of Truth, not a decent toward death.
• Law of Holiness: All are holy as an extension of God’s holiness, only a false image can be unholy.
• Law of One Source: Truth is of the one Source in the eternal present, not the past.
• Law of Oneness: What is done for one is done for all, nothing is done in isolation or separation.
• Law of One Will: Our will and God’s will are one in the same, our will cannot override God’s will.
• Law of One Mind: Souls are united in one Mind, souls are not many separated minds.
• Law of Love: Love is always good, and never tainted by fear.
• Law of Extending Love: Love extends from endless joy, not from sacrifice, compromise or loss.
• Law of Emergence: Only divine love is expressed in emergence, fear has no true source.
• Law of Creation: The creative power of the soul is emergence, not effort through physical forms.
• Law of Projection: Reality is projected from the mind, it is not separate and outside the self.
• Law of the Eternal Present: Only the present moment exists, the past is not extended into the future.
• Law of Giving: What you give you receive, there is only gain and never loss.

As we move into the Light, we become the Light.

The false idea of our self covers our mind putting us into a deep sleep. Like a dense fog, this false image distorts all our thoughts, perceptions and ideas of what is true and what is real. When our source of truth is past learning, then we look to the world to tell us who we are and we believe it. It’s speaks numerous lies that we accept as our truth, that we are weak, frail, vulnerable, sinful, forgotten, abandoned, limited, unloved, unworthy, little, insignificant, finite, bound to the past, and the list goes on and on. Lost in this darkness, our minds construct a false image from which we project and perceive a reality reflecting similar traits. The voices of our illusions speak loudly, convincing us we are sick, bound to decay and death, victims of fear, and destined to suffer.

When we begin our sacred journey into Truth, all we once believed as truth becomes unraveled. As we sit in the power of stillness and go deep into the present moment, we hear the gentle Voice of the Spirit of Truth telling us we are nothing like the image of ourselves we imagined. As he breaks through our layers of darkness with revelations of Truth, he calls us out of the mist of meaninglessness and madness, and into the perfection and peace of our true Self.

As we listen to the Spirit of Truth, little by little we leave the lies of the illusion and advance toward the Light of our true Self. This Light is hidden in the darkness created by the fearful thoughts our false image creates. We continually run from our frightful false image and cover it with anything the world tells us is desirable and acceptable. The Spirit leads us right through these false coverings and our fears, giving us peace and strength to face our most challenging and seemingly unshakeable illusions. After persistence down this winding prodigal path forsaking all we once learned in exchange for the revelations of the Spirit, we begin to deeply comprehend the nature of our true Self. This awareness prepares us for the passage through the narrow gate, the borderland of universal forgiveness, through which all the illusions are stripped from our mind leaving the shining revelation of our true Self.

By giving divine gratitude we release the lingering distortions of our false self and joyfully accept the perfection of emergence, from which our true Self arises. All the voices of the illusion we once heard become distant echoes as our minds ascend to the reality of the Real. These voices which once told us who we were have no place or power in the Light of the True and Real.

As we approach the Altar of Truth, its Holy Light is like a sacred looking glass that reveals our true reflection for the first time. Lost in the darkness with no true mirror, we only saw ourself according to the reflection of our imagination. We believed ourselves to be all sorts of things and accepted those imaginings as true. Now, we marvel as we gaze into the face of Christ, which is the true face of every soul. In the Light we know we ARE the Light, and we become a looking glass for others to see their true Self. As each one looks upon their beautiful reflection, the Light of Truth expands into creation revealing what has always been but our sleeping minds could never perceive in the darkness: we are the glorious likeness of our Father.

As the Light of Life shines into creation, peace is restored to the souls which God created as His Self, His temple, His eternal joy, His ever-present love extended into eternity, and wholly one with Him. All fear is senseless and unreal in the divine presence of our true Self. From this moment of seeing our true reflection a new reality begins to emerge, one flowing from the divine thoughts of our true Self, who is the Self of God.

As the dreamer slept, the Christ came in one, because the one were many.

As the dreamer awakened, Christ came in many, because the many were one.

Our awakening power is divine gratitude.

Gratitude is the power to change the forms in our reality. Divine gratitude changes finite forms into eternal forms.

The creative power inherent in the divine gratitude of our true Self is limitless. When this gratitude is given in unison with gratitude for emergence, we awaken the power of the resurrection within us. Emergence is the shining of God’s will, as our own, into the present moment.

Divine gratitude for emergence acknowledges we correctly perceive and therefore know God’s love, and fully embrace our will and His as one in the same. When we recognize the true nature and Light of his love flowing through emergence, we respond in gratitude, which returns this love back to him. This completes the perfect gift exchange with our true Source, enabling the Spirit of Truth to manifest in creation through us.

In our transition from the illusion to the Real, divine gratitude is our creative choice that engages the resurrection power. This is the power of the Spirit of Truth (Christ), whose Spirit dwells within our true Self. Through gratitude, this life-giving Spirit awakens our true Self through whom a reality of eternal peace emerges.

Emergence is the creative act through which we experience our Creator’s ever-present divine love. It is the one Will of divine love perfectly orchestrating our present moment to perfectly fulfill our desires and our purpose. It’s the only way to manifest our desires without sacrifice, compromise, conflict or loss and for the highest good of all. It engages the supra-conscious Mind of God which creates in a perfection far beyond our conscious awareness. As we give gratitude for our true Self and emergence, our present unfolds in divine harmony.

Emergence is how we create in unison with the Mind of God that we share. As we rest in the eternal present, the supra-conscious creates through our thoughts in a magnitude, detail and intricacy that infinitely exceeds our conscious capacity. Our conscious awareness is a very small part of our creative Mind, yet a highly significant one. Our conscious choices lead to the creation of Light or darkness, Truth or illusion. Depending upon our choice, we either create harmony from the supra-conscious, or disharmony from the sub-conscious, the storehouse of erroneous past learning. One choice manifests reflections of our true Self, and the other images of the false idea of our self. Both choices ripple out to create, either a reality of eternal peace or a dream of fear.

Emergence allows us both to receive and give divine love, which are gifts of infinite value. It’s the experience of receiving divine love through the perfect manifestation of our present moment, and the experience of eternal joy as divine love flows through us for the highest good of all. Gratitude for this emergence is gratitude and acceptance of the divine potentials inherent in God’s love. It’s the creative act from which our thoughts emerge from our true Source, altering the forms of reality. Where universal forgiveness opens our mind to the Mind of God, gratitude extends the divine potentials from this Mind creating a reality of eternal peace.

Yet, in the dream, we learned to fear emergence. When our source of truth is past learning, we believe fearful outcomes can happen unexpectantly in our present moment, causing us to fear and resist emergence. Fear cultivated from the past overlays the present moment like a thick fog, it obscures the divine nature of the present moment and makes it something to fear. Fear causes us to enter into conflict with our present moment, blinding us to God’s love inherent in it.

Resisting a divinely orchestrated present moment layers it with discordant energy (control, fear, conflict, resistance, anger, blame, attack, and complaining), which creates what we don’t want because we aren’t seeing rightly. In response, we hoard up all kinds of armor to protect ourselves from what we fear emergence might bring. This protective stance feeds fear and we continue to experience fearful outcomes. With a state of mind opposing emergence, the true nature of God’s love isn’t seen or known, therefore we can’t experience what emergence has to offer and our oneness with God remains only a concept. However, divine love never shies away from childish rants. It remains unwavering and every moment affords us an opportunity to make another choice, to give divine gratitude instead of giving into fear.

Transformative grace illuminates our vision to see through imagined fears and recognize the Light of divine love inherent in the present moment. In response to the Light, we give gratitude for emergence and all fear ends. High vibrations of divine love extending from our gratitude consume lower vibrations of fear and begin to change the forms of reality. Through gratitude we transition from a fear of emergence into its joyful acceptance, until eventually we no longer perceive fear, and peace is all we know.

Emergence, without the layering on of fear, enables us to partake and give of all the gifts, blessings and eternal treasures the present moment offers. When we give consistent gratitude for our true Self and the emergence of divine love, we experience the power of the resurrection, and the Kingdom of Peace is created through us.

“And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent.” ~ John 17:3

A grateful spirit of Truth is a powerful spirit, one who brings forth miracles.

Along our journey of enlightenment, we learn of the nature of our true Self, which is made in the image of God. Divine gratitude is inspired by this Truth and as this gratitude consumes our thoughts it creates beautiful and unexpected miracles. Divine gratitude is an enlightened creative act by an enlightened mind. It’s the transformative power of the Light Bearers, who by their shining are able to change reality from the unreal to the real.

Gratitude produces vibrational energy of incredible creative impact on the landscape of reality. For those awakening, it’s how the Truth of our divine nature we see with our mind’s eye gets expressed into reality, transforming it from darkness to Light.

Gratitude for the Truth is divine gratitude. When gratitude is given for Truth, it’s a living creative energy of tremendous power. It’s energetic vibrations change the forms of creation, so Truth is expressed in reality, initially appearing as miracles until a reality of Truth is formed. A miracle is a reflection of Truth where there once was an illusion, Light where there was darkness. Miracles are born from our thoughts of Truth extended into reality through divine gratitude and are manifested through the creative act of emergence.

Divine gratitude is the means and end to our awakening as we transition from the unreal to the real. It translates the Truth we received from the Spirit and can perceive with our mind’s eye, into outward expressions that reveal the Kingdom of Peace.

Being an embryonic Self, through whom the Kingdom of Peace is created, the first revelations of Truth we receive is our understanding of our true Self and its oneness with God. Because Truth is ever-present, the spiritual attributes of our true Self are also ever-present. Therefore, we can be sincerely grateful for the Truth we’ve been taught about ourself and everyone else, in every moment, all the time. In this understanding, we always have an abundance to be grateful for, regardless of what the illusion may be reflecting around us. When we extend Truth into creation through gratitude, despite the illusions, everything is touched with Truth’s life-giving energy, and the illusion begins to fade.

Even in the dream we can see the effects of gratitude upon our physical reality, as seen in Dr. Emoto’s water crystal studies. However, the dream’s foundation is fear, a state of mind that evokes minimal and inconsistent gratitude, and even so gratitude for an illusion is gratitude for nothingness. Therefore, gratitude doesn’t exhibit its true potential until we begin to understand our true nature.

During our awakening, where we are in a mental transition from the illusion of our false self to our true Self, there are times when the illusion feels like it’s closing in on us as we actively push through its darkness. At these times our mind can habitually retreat into perceiving the illusion as true. As a result we can tailspin into despair and complaining, two energetic vibrations that create disharmony. In these moments, we can instead choose to give gratitude for the understanding of our true Self. Even though gratitude may feel half-hearted, it remains sincere and therefore effective because Truth is ever-present regardless of how we feel in the moment. Our choice to give divine gratitude becomes a transformative power that brings our mind back to the Truth and fills our reality with Light.

Because our thoughts extend outward and create, this exchange from complaining about the illusion to gratitude for Truth is powerful beyond our imagination. We can’t hold a thought of gratitude and complain at the same time, and the one we choose, we project and create. Do we choose to see our false Self or our true self? Do we choose to see the illusion or the Truth? Do we choose to see darkness or the Light? These all are the same question with the same answer. Again, what we choose is what we create. Choosing to give divine gratitude lifts us above the illusions our physical eyes perceive, where we feel subservient to the illusion, and welcomes the Truth into our mind giving us sovereignty over the dream. In this sovereignty, divine gratitude reshapes the landscape of our reality into expressions of Truth.

As we practice divine gratitude and it grows more consistent, like a dawning light in the darkness, we bring Truth into the Illusion. In this dawning Light, the Kingdom of Peace emerges as our true Self extends its miracles.

If you can see the Truth of divine gratitude, you will want to consistently practice expressing it until the Kingdom of Peace is manifested. This is the high calling of the Light Bearers.
