The Second Bible, a compendium of Wisdom and Knowledge.  Will it be enough to heal the world of its transgressions of imagined sin?  Mistakes, yes, many have been made, by every nation, by every man, woman and child.  But will they learn to do things better, differently, with a new view in mind?  For peace, prosperity and love for all, not just the so-called deserving few.  For God makes no junk, She never has.  And the time has come for us, too, to end the ceaseless, unending quest for more, more wealth, more cars, more stocks and bonds.  For everything visible can be denied, lost in fires, vandalism, too.  Robbers can come and steal the wares, but gifts of the soul are immortal indeed.  And what are these gifts, so rare to find?  The gift of serenity and peace of mind, seeing the perfection in it all, God’s Guiding Hand, His Great Plan.  Humanity will not self-destruct.  God has ordained Enlightenment.  When will it come?  Where will it be?  That, dear Ones, is up to us.  Ignore the Messenger, the Prophet of Hope, and all such plans for greatness will be derailed.  For God never overrides the free will of man, and that has been our Fall from Grace, Amen.     

Prayer connects one to God.  Faith keeps one aligned with Him, and Gratitude opens one up to the Vibration of God.  God is greater than any circumstances we may encounter.  And All Things Good are possible through Him. 

Part of the illusion is that only certain people can hear the Voice of God.  That rabbis do, but not their congregation, that ministers can, but not laypeople.  That is part of the illusion of power and of God’s Grace, for God speaks to all who seek in truth and humility.

We all have an obligation to the Earth, for she clothes us and gives us our daily bread.  And we must band together in cooperation, competition has reigned for long enough.  None are superior, nations or races, yet all are different, with lessons to learn.  Some are cold-hearted and dictatorial, some hot-blooded and volatile, some feel disenfranchised and rebel, others used and abused.  All have much to learn to do things differently, that’s why cooperation is now necessary.  For hasn’t competition also bred hatred and war, competing for resources of others?  And do we really want to continue that pattern?  Haven’t we learned enough from war, hot or cold?  Cooperation is now a requirement.

God has brought us to the brink of the Abyss, to look down into the disaster that we can create or we can avoid, all with the choices now made.  We can turn the corner or plunge to our death, in war and civil plunder.  Or we can return Whence we came, back to the Heart of God.  It is our choice to make, free will it is called.

The Past is wiped away, the slate clean.  What will we create with this day?  For Peace beckons the world over, for people are tired of wars and killing.  What will we do tonight before bed?  Will we kneel and pray and ask for forgiveness?  Will we ask for wisdom and Guidance, too?  All is possible of me and you.  And a New World will we create on the Thoughts of God.

New Energies are permeating the Earth to make our shifting easier, to shift from the ego, the thoughts of man, the thoughts of separation and greed, to the thoughts that will benefit Humanity.  And God will be praised. 

It is not a coincidence when lives intersect, for good or apparent evil.  For all have a Life Plan of this or that, all Divinely Guided.  Some choose to ignore, and chaos it is called, yet some stay true to form.  And they are the ones who lead lives of greatness, in whatever form.  For wealth is no parameter of success, certainly not in God’s Eyes.  Is the world a better place because you are here, might be a better question to ask.

We have created many things that no longer serve us:  Suburbs and long commutes, strangers raising our children, alienation in our cities, towns and suburbs.  Global warming, waste and extravagance.  The time for wisdom has come.  The time to end our throwaway economy has come.  We need to do things differently.  It is time.

God is the only one who sees the “Big Picture.”  God is the only one who can lead us to happiness, joy and satisfaction.  And using our strengths of wisdom, insight and intuition, and with the paradigm shift that is now being created, we can begin to live lives of satisfaction and joy.  And our children will bless us in their hearts for our courage.

We’ve made a mess of things, but it’s nothing that God can’t fix.  We just need to do things differently.

Corruption in Government, jobs lost to sweatshops overseas, guns in schools and spousal abuse.  Will politics ever change this?  Republican or Democrat, it will still be the same.  We need a fundamental shift in our consciousness, and political parties have nothing to do with this.  We need God back in our hearts and minds, where He’s been deleted for too long.  The minority has ruled this country for long enough, and we can see the results.  We are a nation founded on God.  Republican or Democrat, nothing will change until we welcome God back. 

I propose a new goal for the 21st century, radical though it may seem:  Happiness.  Somewhere along the way we have lost it.  In our mad rush to accumulate more and more, more cars, more education, more wealth, we have become less tolerant, less altruistic, more selfish and shortsighted.  We have forgotten about the needs of others and of generations to come.  We have become too self-serving and too self-absorbed.  And it is hurting us all.  We cannot continue on the path of materialism we have created.  The pendulum has swung too far and must return.  Balance and moderation and all it implies must be the new guiding principle.  That, and a new faith in God will bring us what we so desperately need — meaning in our lives.
