MICHAEL – JUNE 9, 2003
Good evening. This is Michael, your Creator Father and
your human brother whom you have known as Jesus. Tonight
a great peace descends upon you. Like a veil gently sitting
upon your head and shoulders, let my peace descend upon
you. Relax into this peace. Feel its safety and warmth.
This is my embrace for you, my child. Feel me, and be
at peace. (Pause)
Will you wear this peace around you when the winds of
change swirl about
you? Tonight I would offer this peace for you to gain more
familiarity with the deep and lasting
impression upon you of being in my presence during the
times of your daily life. And because it is difficult to
feel this peace when your mind is actively engaged in other
pursuits, this is your time to experience my presence within
you as a reminder that I am with you all the days of your
life, and you have access to me and to this feeling of
peace – my embrace – as your protection and
your upliftment in your life at all times. (Pause)
Would you say in your body that you welcome this peace,
or do you perceive there are areas within you that shun
this peace and block it from going deeper into your cellular
being to the very core depths of your body? I would that
you live in this peace all of the days of your life. But
my children, you must desire this and offer yourselves
to me to be opened and to be yielding that this peace come
into those places in your mind where you have doubt or
insecurity, and ask for my peace to warm that place within
you and open your mind to receiving comfort, consolation,
loving understanding, and acceptance. (Pause)
You
see, my children, your bodies have been so conditioned
to fear, so used to living in doubt that my peace is not
always experienced to your soul’s satisfaction. But
that is not my desire for your life. It is only the entanglement
of the world and its not knowing of me and my ways that
intersects within your mind and creates confusion and darkness.
But my peace is everlasting – ever abundant within
you. And you only need to ask for it to come into your
life and I will bestow that, and you will grow into a more
conscious and palpable experience of my peace and give
you great comfort. (Pause)
Once
you have tasted this peace, you know the reality of me;
you feel my presence. This is an invitation to come
into a more satisfying relationship with me where I may
lovingly instruct you, encourage you, support you, guide
you as you live your life. Would you find it comforting
to have this presence with you during your day? And if
you have answered silently ‘yes’ then I would
ask you to make a decision that speaks to the desire of
wanting more of this. “Yes, I choose to have more
peace in my life – I invite more peace into my life.
And I ask for help in maintaining and absorbing more peace
in my life.” This is essentially a faith request
you make. And so this peace you experience is an invitation
to come into the faith within you to more fully and resoundingly
explore the faith journey you make in inviting me into
your life. (Pause)
For this faith journey is a partnership. I will be there
beside you as it is my peace that you know as my presence.
So if it is this peace that is your desire to experience,
then seal your decision with me to invite me into your
life as much as you can, and I will bind my commitment
into that decision to help you overcome the handicaps in
your thinking and in the barriers to your feeling me guiding
you. Your choice is a gift and I return that gift to you
through my help and my presence. My peace is yours, my
children. How you wish to experience this is up to you.
I will pause now and entertain your questions while I
am still encircuited among you this evening.
Student:
Christ Michael, I invite you into my life – your
healing, your love, your partnership, your understanding,
and your peace.
Michael: My son, long have I known you, even the days
when you were struggling in darkness. Always have I been
there to extend my love to you. And you have made a soul
commitment long ago to experience the Father in Paradise,
and I stand beside you to guide you on that journey. You
have by your side two devoted parents who love with a great
and boundless affection.
Your
desire to grow now becomes more mature, as you emerge
from the place of doubt that keeps your growth from fully
developing. As your faith matures, so does your awareness
of your Mother Spirit and me grow within you to trust that
we are nurturing your mind and helping you overcome the
impediments in your thinking that prevent the union with
your Thought Adjuster. Your Mother in Spirit’s presence
weaves you into a greater consciousness of the presence
of the all-pervasive Creator.
The
peace within you is the relaxation of your mind allowing
the action of Spirit to upstep you in those spiritual energies
of Father-likeness – of God-consciousness. By your
choices have you access to all that we can bestow to our
children. Truly, my son, there is no limit to what you
can receive. Receive now with our abundant blessings upon
you and be in my peace.
Student: Does the peace you bring transcend faith and
trust?
Michael: Yes, R my son, it does. But it does more than
that, as it instills within you an ever-expanding emergence
of your identity as a son of God. What greater concept
is there in human thought than the idea of you being a
beloved of the living Creator in Paradise who shares His
entire universe with His children? Could you conceive of
a greater idea than this for yourself? (No)
So what you have asked of me is true, but the transcendence
of faith, trust, hope is the unassailable confidence that
you are beloved child of God, and that you are entitled
to all of the goodness, beauty and truth that is our Father.
And you grow into this through your trust, through your
faith, as the peace instills within you all of these qualities
and elevates your perception of yourself to that highest
human concept of being a dearly cherished child. Be in
your faith more, R. Find that desire within you that longs
for your faith to grow. Can you do this now? (Yes) And
now invite me to deepen your faith.
Student: (Cannot hear question)
Michael:
It is always present, but you know you will need to make
decisions that activate your faith – to choose
for this faith activation to continue to grow your perception
of yourself as a child of the Father. Be in that desire
for your faith to grow now, my son, and I will add something
into you. Relax now into my peace, and let me be in you
more. (Pause) Your faith is growing stronger, my son. Allow
it to develop for you, for you will be making use of every
ounce of it as you continue to grow. My love overshadows
you and my peace is ever-abiding within you. You are my
son, and I love you. (Thank you)
Student:
Jesus, I desire rest – rest in living in
the truth communing with the Father. I desire rest from
the unrealities of the world that I have to deal with on
a daily basis. My soul desires rest from my own false perceptions,
illusions. I desire rest from just surviving and I want
to embrace the fullness of who I am. I’m just tired
of being limited. I want to see the glass full and spilling
over into my family and loved ones lives. I desire rest
from working so hard to fulfill everyone else’s obligations
and forgetting my own soul. I desire to rest in the bosom
of my Father and Mother.
Michael: D my son. Will you trust me now where I am escorting
you on the journey to finding the Father within you?
Student:
I want to trust you, but there seems to be this deep
primal resistance to hang on to my way. I sense that
my identity is wrapped up in this and I’m afraid
to let go.
Michael:
And yet you seek to extend yourself beyond this, do you
not? (Yes, I do) So, your dilemma is how to preserve
yourself but to fully let go. Do you see the conflict?
(Yes, very clearly) What is your choice? And I say this
for you to carefully consider what it is that you are taking
upon yourself now. For you have in all of your discussions
with me asked to be this living vessel of the Father. Whose
identity is more important now to be – the Father’s
identity through you or that which you have come to identify
as yourself all of the years of your life? And this is
your choice. And you do not yet know whose the Father’s
identity through you is. You have a rudimentary idea, but
it is not a fully experiential understanding. The question
you must ask yourself, whose identity is more important
to me?
Student:
I want that identity of being one with the Father – His
identity for me. But how? How can I get there?
Michael:
Have you posed this idea to yourself: “I
no longer have any interest in preserving my self-identity.” Have
you asked yourself this question? Feel what this is doing
in you now when you ask this. Do you have any desire to
preserve this identity? If you have desire then you must
choose, and you must ask your Inner Spirit to help you
see why this idea may no longer be serving you. Do you
understand?
Student:
Very clearly....because it doesn’t serve
me well. It keeps me bound to old patterns and old ways
of thinking and feeling. And I don’t want to feel
that way anymore.
Michael:
Spend time exploring this idea. Feel the weight and desire
you hold within. If it is truly your desire
to acquire more of the Father’s identity through
you, then ask for this resistance in holding your own identity
and desire thereof to begin to shift in your mind so that
you find more of that desire, to feel more of the desire,
to choose the desire to be the Father’s identity
living through you. Be gentle with yourself, be non-judgmental.
This is a very fundamental question that each person must
choose at some point in their lives. I honor that which
is in you now that is opening the path for this choice
to be made in your life. Render this the proper time and
sincerity that is necessary for this new path in your life
to unfold for you. I will be there with you, helping you
step out of the old identity and into the new. Have you
any other questions now, my son?
Student:
As you were speaking to me just now I could sense that
old identity’s grip on me – its fear in
saying ‘what about me?’ I also feel it very
strongly but I also feel it loosening and lessening its
influence. I welcome this challenge.
Michael: And like so many other challenges you have walked
through, do you now know that you will be victorious in
this one as well?
Student: Yes, I do know that it will take time.
Michael:
And my only closing words to you would be to say to embrace
this challenge. For it is a thrilling and
wondrous yielding of your humanness to your divinity, and
it will be a challenge that you will treasure as you see
the faith that you must use to overcome this challenge.
I faced this same similar undertaking that you now face.
It is a challenge that each one of you will face at some
point in your life. For truly it is written that he who
wishes to save his life must lose it. And so, my friend,
I will be there to accompany you as one who walked this
path. And I will be there, my son, to shine within you
the truth – the reality – of who you are as
a son of the Creator in Paradise. This is your destiny
now and it is your time to fully embrace it. (Thank you)
Student:
Michael, I don’t have a question, but I’d
like to thank you for something that happened this weekend.
I was raised in a family and culture where conversation
was a contact sport. It was very exciting but all
too often it ended up with everyone talking and nobody
listening,
and so nothing was really exchanged. You don’t hear
your friend and what he is saying as something unique,
but just as a point of departure for you to get into some
terrible game of one-upsmanship where no matter what he
says, you come up with something bigger or better. It’s
terrible, because you come all this way to visit with a
friend and all you hear is your own thoughts.
But this weekend a number of times I heard this wonderful
welcomed caution that I was getting into that realm, and
it seemed to have a very unmistakable distinct quality
of coming not from myself. I thank you for that. I came
away from a visit with dear old friends just absolutely
rich because I came away full of them. Thank you very much.
Michael:
My son, how blessed indeed you have been to have the
Father Fragment within you that is now able to relay
those words of truth to echo deep within you to do things
the way the Father would have you do them. To find that
place of true friendship, true spiritual kinship, that
gives you the capacity to appreciate another person without
competition, without ego need; to be in that rare place
of allowing the Father’s love to flow through you
and to be perceived by another human being so they can
echo that back to you.
Truly,
you are the ones to be thanked. For have you not been
instructed and encouraged all these long years, and
is this now a time of great spiritual fruit being produced
in your life of which you can see the quality and beauty
thereof? And so, my son, this is what delights this father’s
heart. For you to manifest these fruits now – to
be aware – be proud of your efforts and know that
your fruitful crop is just beginning to grow abundant,
and you have many beautiful fruits to still produce. What
a gift you give to this father. Thank you. (You’re
most welcome, Michael)
Student: Dear Jesus, thank you for this mantle of peace.
Please teach me the next step in your graciousness.
Michael: I would, my son V, that you would wear this peace
around you each and feel it settle more deeply into your
being. Would it not be a most wondrous feeling to be so
permeated with my peace around you as that you felt it
reverberate within the deepest parts of your being at all
times and each moment as you live and breathe? (Yes, it
would) Do you perceive this would be the next logical progression
in my peace enfolding you? (Yes, I do perceive that, thank
you) So, would your question then be to me: how may I perceive
this more fully each moment? (Yes, I think it would)
I would
say to you, become more consciously attuned to me in
your thinking by your invocation for me to share
the small moments of your life with you. In your daily
tasks – fulfilling your daily task requirements – before
you embark upon a certain undertaking, spend a moment quieting
your mind. Ask me to accompany you and to fill you with
my embrace, to feed you with peace that I so long to share
with you. As you practice growing this habit, in time you
will feel that peace knit within the very cells of your
being, to the eventual conclusion that you will resonate
in me and I in you at all times during the day. And you
and I will be as one in this peace that is now in your
body.
Is this something you would find enjoyable to do as you
go about your daily tasks? (Yes, I can see this as an imperative
really) Only if you want this peace to be constant and
consistent possession. Be in my peace as it gains that
familiar quality within you, and you will then remember
to beckon my presence within you. Feel this now, and then
remember, my son, and I will be with you. Does this help
you now? (Yes it does, dear Jesus, thank you.)
Student:
Dear Jesus, I’m about to embark on a new
journey in my life. I need your peace and your help. I’ve
been so busy for many years and now I need the peace. I
am taking a great weight off; will you help me with this?
Michael:
My dear daughter, you only have to ask, and already is
my presence surrounding you in light. The journey out
of the darkness into the light of truth is the only salvation
that can truly free you in your soul. And you walk this
as a human, not alone, but with me. For I am always at
your side. And you have within you a very living presence
of the Father – the very center of glory – whose
actual presence in your mind will help you to find the
better way to perceive your reality and challenges. You
have only to ask to for the light of truth to illuminate
your way through the darkness. Each step you take must
be held with the candle of faith and I will be there to
accompany you. It is the presence of your Mother as the
Holy Spirit that lights the candle of your faith by Her
action, but it is your decision to walk in faith each step
that will truly liberate you.
Be patient with your faith steps. Stay in that one step
and let my peace and the candle of your faith illuminate
your way with confidence and courage and hope, and allow
yourself to feel these qualities weave within and become
truly real and a part of you before you take your next
step of faith. The walk of faith is steady and sure, but
it must be done at the proper pacing for you to feel the
support necessary so you can take that next step. And ever
will I be there to be by your side to uplift you, console
you, comfort you, guide you, and love you as you make your
journey. And I honor your path of faith, and ask you to
rejoice in the ability that you have to walk on this path.
It is a great gift to be able to walk in faith. It is a
great privilege to make that faith journey.
I am adding more awareness of myself into you now for
you to feel my companionship by your side. Each day invite
me to accompany you, and you will feel that companionship
bond between us grow more strong and real. For you are
my daughter and I desire that you feel my love for you
and my devotion to you. (Thank you)
My beloved children, you are all emerging from the shadows
of despair and darkness. My peace is the great comforter
and consolation of your pain. Know the validity and reality
of me and my love for you. You have heard it say that truly
no man comes to the Father but by me, and I am your gateway
to eternity and to all of the love, the joy, the wonder,
the beauty that you can possibly imagine or dare to dream.
My peace is all around you. Breathe into this, my children.
Know me. Come into the love that will free you into your
destinies as children of Paradise. You are in my heart
always. My love is upon you now. Be at peace. Good evening.
