Steps 9 and 10 and About MARRIAGE

*Steps 9 and 10 and About [[Marriage]]

9. It is perfectly all right if this is just for you. Jesus communed with the father often, just for himself. Your nurture is as important as the nurturing of others. (TR had asked for some personal guidance.)

You are overwhelmed by the number of human beings on [[your planet]] in need. You would [[change]] [[society]] to reward [[goodness]] more than [[innovation]]. But who is to decide? Keep praying to know your own [[path]]. One thing at a time, for you are but one important stream in the network of rivers that will some day flood the world with the [[message]] of [[goodness]]. One [[kiss]] at a time allows the [[baby]] to grow into a fully loving [[human being]].

We were at your meeting and yes, we were gathered about you ready and waiting. (TR did not transmit at the meeting.) This is not a disappointment. All is well. Every moment moves according to God's will; in time this takes a start and stop action, choice being so important to the recognition of God's will and the respect of each human being.

Our task is too great for you to try to [[comprehend]]; do what you can and be [[satisfied]], content. [[Contentment]] is the bedrock, [[curiosity]] is the sandstone, [[love]] of God is the [[soil]], and the lava of [[evolution]] slowly [[renews]].

One kiss at a time allows the baby to grow into a fully loving human being.

[[Practice]] is what you need now. You are not [[alone]]. We are with you. If others retreat for awhile it is to nurture themselves, to resuscitate their [[mind]] and [[heart]], bringing themselves back up to snuff as you say. Be tenderhearted toward your absent ones. They do not intend you harm. It is your [[mandate]] not to allow harm to turn you against the ways of [[love]]. Unbearable [[grief]] is the recognition that some things are only known to God and your [[Thought Adjuster]]. Even your need to be [[understood]] can only be brought to them. That is why we say that you are not given that which you can not bear, because God is always with you to hear your [[cry]] and we are always ready to show you the way out of the [[darkness]]. The feeling of unbearable grief is just that, a [[feeling]] meant to push you, [[lead]] you, drive you toward the proper exit, the bridge across your troubles into a [[communion]] of [[light]]; be that light unto others.

Our task is too great for you to try to comprehend; do what you can and be satisfied, content. Contentment is the bedrock, curiosity is the sandstone, love of God is the soil, and the lava of evolution slowly renews.

Do not fear. Do not [[fear]]. We can not tell you enough about how fear is the [[distortion]] of [[truth]]. Your [[reality]] is one of love, but you see only the [[turbulence]] of natural forces working through the thickness of [[time]]; like dark [[soil]] so rich in nutrients, yet without moisture and [[light]] so useless. Let me say this again. You bend yourself to the wheel, daily making life's needs a matter of utmost importance. This is [[necessary]] and true to the task of [[survival]]. But making time for the [[light]] and the living waters to nurture [[the soul]] of your life is what makes the [[grief]] of living bearable. We love you. Our love can only be known if you choose to turn your hearts and minds toward the light that resides within. When you can [[spark another]], or another can [[listen]] to you with our same [[attention]], then you feel relieved, your grief is lifted somewhat, but always for the [[joy]] to be total, you must turn to me, your inner guide, your [[Ta|fragment of God within]], your complete source of [[comfort]].

The feeling of unbearable grief is just that, a feeling meant to push you, lead you, drive you toward the proper exit, the bridge across your troubles into a communion of light; be that light unto others.

There are indeed many [[comforts]] to be found on [[earth]], but you will notice that these comforts are short and must be endlessly replaced. Thus you have the word [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consumerism consumerism]. An ism that must be continued to exist. Our comfort is everlasting. This is puzzling to those who do not know it and so they create [[rituals]] and demand your [[obedience]]. We demand nothing, only give unto you the light that [[heals]], life everlasting. If your friend (an [[atheist]]) believes there is only now, and nothing more, do not [[fear]]. The essential [[truth]] will be [[revealed]] and all you need to notice is the state of his [[heart]], the [[expression]] of his [[love]]. If that is overflowing with the [[goodness]] that you know is ours, then what is there to be concerned about? [[Belief]] is only a [[barrier]] when it does not lead to love. When love is present, beliefs can be like [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_Eggs_and_Ham Green Eggs and Ham], (Dr. Seuss book.) the enjoyment of [[children]], the fancy of adult creation. [[Love]] is what matters. Be at peace with your friend, your brothers and sisters. Preach only [[love]].

Do not fear. Do not fear. We can not tell you enough about how fear is the distortion of truth. Your reality is one of love, but you see only the turbulence of natural forces working through the thickness of time; like dark soil so rich in nutrients, yet without moisture and light so useless.

When you can spark another, or another can listen to you with our same attention, then you feel relieved, your grief is lifted somewhat, but always for the joy to be total, you must turn to me, your inner guide, your fragment of God within, your complete source of comfort.

Do not [[fear]]. Do not fear. You are there, we are here. But the reason for living is to pass love along, here or there, now, then and in the [[future]]. This is the [[song]]; Always always always think with love. Always, always, always [[breathe]] our [[love]]. Always, always, always remember love is the way.

[[Practice]] [[meditating]] in between everything you do. We have all the [[patience]] you need.

My dear beloved one, you must not think that you should [[transmit]] every day, nor that we have a counter in our hands marking off your successes and [[failures]]. Nor a time clock either. [[Time]] is your hang-up, not ours. We have been with you every [[step]] of your [[journey]] and we will not leave you now. Your [[husband]] is well, give him time to [[heal]]. Devina

10. [[Trust]] and you shall hear. All empty spaces between us are filled with [[love]]. You can not push the [[river]], only go with the [[flow]]. These are [[thoughts]] you already know. Relax and allow. Devina

Practice meditating in between everything you do. We have all the patience you need.

We come to all. We are present all ways. I am Legion. You [[struggle]] with my name, and the depth of my [[voice]], because you are unfamiliar with the [[masculine]]. Devina is with you, here with us, but she has stepped aside in order for me to speak with you.

[[Marriage]] is the bringing together of two people of [[different]] strains, different tensions so to speak, different [[readings]] on [[life]]. Some marriages [[dance]], others plod along, some trod the same path but look east and west, separately. The most effective marriage is one in which two [[individuals]], two different [[minds]], learn, as you and I are learning, how to [[communicate]] over great gaps of [[understanding]]. The [[peace]] that surpasses all understanding, is the peace that married [[partners]] often feel after the [[Sex|sexual engagement]], if that engagement has been successful. [[Sexuality]] is important in a marriage for this result, it leads disparate minds and warring [[emotions]] toward [[love]].

TRUST To HEAR

Success in [[marriage]] is like the cloverleaf in highway engineering; several streams of rapidly moving [[goal]]-directed [[energies]] are brought together and allowed to mix, [[weave]] in and out and in between each other, without mishap or the elimination of any one segment or member of the [[traffic]]. The "traffic" in marriage is many fold; [[family]], [[career]], [[self-fulfillment]]; [[fears]], [[dreams]], [[hopes]], [[intentions]]; [[physical]] existence and insistence, death. [[Divorce]] is the [[abortion]] of [[understanding]]; that is, misunderstanding can not be bridged and a new route, or highway, must be taken. You liken it to a crash only because many do not let go in their [[minds]], even as they move on in other ways. To sever such ties includes the [[ability]] to remain misunderstood. That is the [[purpose]] of [[prayer]], to turn your misunderstandings over to God.

10. Trust and you shall hear. All empty spaces between us are filled with love. You can not push the river, only go with the flow. These are thoughts you already know. Relax and allow. Devina

As a woman, your [[focus]] in [[marriage]] is bound to be different than that of a man. Men want to be [[comforted]], women want to comfort. That is an over-simplification, for women cry out for [[comfort]] on your world, but I speak of marriage now, not the other facets of life in which men are required to do the comforting with their [[ability]] to [[protect]] and defend. In marriage, however, a man¹s [[memory]] of "how it was" to be loved and comforted by his [[mother]] in the confines of [[home]] are re-stimulated. And a woman, if she is seeking to generate [[family]], will seek also to make the nest soft. There are, of course, many other kinds of marriage, but your need from me, Legion, is to [[understand]] the comfort your [[husband]] seeks and you so often fail to give. A warm hand on the shoulder, a [[touch]] to the knee, the stroking as if to a child without [[judgement]] that he should be "grown up" already, or different than he is. You can feel the [[strength]] in my "voice" and the [[pattern]] you feel coming from me into your [[body]], yet I tell you that I too need comforting. It is how you [[understand]] [[strength]]. Even the strongest is not invulnerable on your world.

We come to all. We are present all ways. I am Legion. You struggle with my name, and the depth of my voice, because you are unfamiliar with the masculine. Devina is with you, here with us, but she has stepped aside in order for me to speak with you.

The [[partnership]] between you and me will be [[strengthening]] to your [[marriage]]. As you grow to [[trust]] me, you will expand in your marriage. You know you are loved by him, but you must also know that you are loved by him as you are, not as you would like yourself to be, or as you [[hope]] you are [[perceived]] to be.

My dear one, Legion and I will [[support]] your daily life of [[communion]] with God and man. Do not be [[afraid]] to [[wake]] each [[morning]] to a new day of [[unknown]] events. Wake like the birds. [[Sing]] the songs of entering the day, [[love]] in your breast, love tucked under your wings. You struggle with the ways in which you are not like others; does the cardinal attack the wren? wish to be an oriole? No, each makes with the other a [[tapestry]] of [[love]]. Complete the tapestry by being all of who you are, [[alone]], only you, connected and connecting.

Devina: When your [[mind]] is [[tired]] you can not expect us to enter into the same [[dialogue]] as when you are refreshed. Your [[body]] needs care as well as your [[spirit]]. You see, even your hands do not want to type. I do not scold you, only [[caution]]. The physical body wears down. You think you must perform [[miracles]] in order to be [[worthy]] in our [[sight]] and in the sight of others. Miracles are for everyone. Your body is yours alone and only you can keep it alive. Spend time each day giving your [[body]] [[rest]], treating your body with care and [[attention]] as you would give to that which you deem important, and take your body outdoors, into the elements that contribute to your well being as they do to the gardens of beauty that you appreciate. We can not save you, we can only [[guide]] you according to god¹s will. You save yourself by your willingness to [[respect]] yourself and love yourself as you love us. Can you not see? We are on the other side of the [[mirror]], looking at you looking at me. Yes, I am a treasure in your [[heart]] and [[mind]], as you are a treasure. [[Breathe]] in this reality of love. It is a two-way mirror and it is two way love. Alana awaits to speak to you.

Even the strongest is not invulnerable on your world.

Alana: This is Alana. My [[joy]] resides in your [[heart]] each time you take a [[step]] in the [[direction]] of love. This can not be only love that pours outside of you into others, it must also be the love that pours inside, filling up your heart¹s chambers and leading your [[mind]] to [[rest]].

The partnership between you and me will be strengthening to your marriage. As you grow to trust me, you will expand in your marriage. You know you are loved by him, but you must also know that you are loved by him as you are, not as you would like yourself to be, or as you hope you are perceived to be.

Nothing we do is forced. We can not make you, you make yourself, a self-made woman or man who loves God, yearns to know God so much that you choose to give us this time. Yes, it is a [[wonderful]] [[feeling]] is it not? For us as well.

My dear one, Legion and I will support your daily life of communion with God and man. Do not be afraid to wake each morning to a new day of unknown events. Wake like the birds. Sing the songs of entering the day, love in your breast, love tucked under your wings. You struggle with the ways in which you are not like others; does the cardinal attack the wren? wish to be an oriole? No, each makes with the other a tapestry of love. Complete the tapestry by being all of who you are, alone, only you, connected and connecting. Devina When your mind is tired you can not expect us to enter into the same dialogue as when you are refreshed. Your body needs care as well as your spirit.

It is a two-way mirror and it is two way love. Alana awaits to speak to you.

This is Devina. Alana is by my side and Legion awaits your call. He [[accepts]] your [[reluctance]], but he does not [[wander]] far away from you. He is your [[mentor]] now. You simply must learn to trust that because "he" is [[masculine]] is nothing to fear. He is as full of love as I. And always we are filled with the love of God. You have been taught that God is a fearsome HE who tromps across [[heaven]] sending down lightning bolts of correction. This is the [[Correcting time]], but all true correction is made with love. There are those of your religions who would punish the evildoer. This is a mistaken [[idea]] born of a [[primitive]] misunderstanding. Mishap and [[tragedy]] are bearable lessons. You know my love. Would I send a [[plague]] upon your house? Nor would God for he is my [[mentor]] and he does not turn his gaze away when the lessons are hard, His gaze of love is always a warm bath of [[encouragement]] and [[confidence]]. [[Relax]] in his love and stand forth [[renewed]].

This is Alana. My joy resides in your heart each time you take a step in the direction of love. This can not be only love that pours outside of you into others, it must also be the love that pours inside, filling up your heart's chambers and leading your mind to rest.

Legion loves too. The [[masculine]] and the [[feminine]] are so well linked on this side of the [[mountain]] that we are a [[dance]] of [[joy]], every step so well timed it would take a crowbar to pry us apart. This is the [[cooperation]] we would teach you. The [[communion]] between [[man]] and [[woman]] on your planet evolves. We see it bearing fruit. Do not let the sluggish mishaps of daily life turn your face away from the magnificent [[opportunities]] that are in your [[path]]. Your [[partner¹s]] [[heart]] is as strong and yearns for [[growth]] as you do. Keep your eye on the [[goal]], connecting with love to further love. Let both your [[hearts]] [[strengthen]] each one and give this strength to those who come to hear us and learn with you. Legion would speak now.

Nothing we do is forced. We can not make you, you make yourself, a self-made woman or man who loves God, yearns to know God so much that you choose to give us this time. Yes, it is a wonderful feeling is it not? For us as well.

The [[history]] of men on earth is one of striving to [[achieve]] an [[understanding]] that can only bring them [[satisfaction]] if laced with [[love]]. I use that word well. Laced is a term of your [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drug_culture drug mind], is it not? It means something hidden has been slipped in. But [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lace lace] is also the gentle [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doily doily] placed on the table by woman. The frill that lies across her breast, rising and falling as she goes about her daily tasks, ruffling at her chin when the breezes pass. Man¹s [[knowledge]] and [[power]] yearn to be laced with the softer [[wisdom]] of gentle [[love]]. Your [[leaders]] are [[confused]] when such [[wisdom]] is [[rejected]] or turned against them, yet they continue on, stumbling perhaps, but [[hunger]] does not allow for table [[manners]] and [[ignorance]] will make mistakes. Your men are still [[ignorant]] of the love of God as [[equal]] between [[man]] and [[woman]]. This is not a [[social]] concept, as your world would have it. This is the state of your inner realm untouched by all [[history]]. To thread the needle, to pull the curtain aside, is a [[silent]] approach, a [[quiet]] task, the effort of [[contemplation]] and love. Pray for all those in the seat of [[power]] as you do for those suffering the consequences of power misused and misguided. Every lesson [[leads]] us along the [[path]] toward God¹s [[manifestation]] of [[love]].

This is Devina. Alana is by my side and Legion awaits your call. He accepts your reluctance, but he does not wander far away from you. He is your mentor now. You simply must learn to trust that because he is masculine is nothing to fear. He is a full of love as I. And always we are filled with the love of God. You have been taught that God is a fearsome HE who tromps across heaven sending down lightning bolts of correction. This is the Correcting time, but all true correction is made with love. There are those of your religions who would punish the evildoer. This is a mistaken idea born of a primitive misunderstanding. Mishap and tragedy are bearable lessons. You know my love. Would I send a plague upon your house? Nor would God for he is my mentor and he does not turn his gaze away when the lessons are hard, His gaze of love is always a warm bath of encouragement and confidence. Relax in his love and stand forth renewed.

I am Legion. You almost forgot, did you not? Yes, you can "forget" your [[arbitrary]] rules and demarcations when led by love. My love for you is [[total]]. Suffer not your [[fear]] of men with me. I am here that you may know a "man¹s" love as you know the love of Devina. This is an important task on [[your planet]]. We have come to you to teach [[love]], nondiscriminatory love. You must [[discern]] the [[subtleties]], yes, to allow love to pass through, but you must set aside your false walls and allow the curtain of love to blow freely, the infinite [[patterns]] of love to be seen. I too pass through the lace curtain with you hand in hand as we enter the anterooms of God¹s chambers. The [[burden]] of [[manhood]] is on my shoulders, I do not carry it lightly, but the [[joy]] of our [[communion]] in love sends all burden away. I thank you for this [[opportunity]] to dance with you. Legion.

This is Alana speaking. You are beginning to [[discern]] the different [[quality]] of [[vibration]] that is he and me. We will continue to work with you at this. That is all for now. Pass through the lace curtain of love each time you greet another being on [[your planet]]. We ask no more than that you give [[love]] where love is missing. Alana.
