No man is a stranger to one who knows God

My God, may I ask You. The above quote* is very special.  Would You like to comment on this? 

Nice quote, My son, and all the way to My heart.

Because you are all children of God and, as a result, all brothers and sisters of each other, meeting someone who is a complete stranger can become a great experience.  

When prejudices, fears and unfamiliarity are leading, it becomes difficult.

How easily does a stranger become a scapegoat. And the stranger experiences then on his turn hatred and prejudice in this unknown country.

But it can also go the other way around. 

It will be a revelation to man, when he meets someone he does not yet know, and then comes to know him, and then will experience and discover that much can be shared, that it can become a meeting between two hearts. But that is only possible if both people search together for what unites them or like to be surprised by what they do not know.

But for someone who knows God, has really come to know God, he has become a student in the school of love. And then you can come to love your fellow man, also and even strangers. If you know God, no one can be a stranger. Especially when you remember that you and that stranger are children of God. How easy do you get then a fraternal or sisterly feeling for that stranger. 

So just ask a believer how he views strangers. Or he is then the hands of God on earth as he speaks with love about the stranger. Or he automatically has to come clean if he does not really know God by hating strangers. 

My blessings to you all

The GodlikeMan on earth

My God, what a fuss between religions about Jesus being the most important one or Mohamed or Buddha or Krishna or Babaji and whether they are the only son of God or whatever discussion mankind can perform. This discussion does not exist in the spiritual world. Would You like to comment on this?

I like to do so.

Every religion has its own idols, always lifelike, vital, great spiritual beings, who gave the example, who were in contact with the higher world. And these beings thrilled the people, so greatly, so profoundly, so powerfully that they still have followers long after their death. And that is very good and necessary, and wished by God.
What does man cope with on this beautiful but dangerous earth without inspiration, without an example, without a grand being who has preceded him and has shown him the path?

In the spiritual world all these great prophets and saints are united in one consciousness, namely in the consciousness that is the perfect wish of The Father-Mother God. And this consciousness has been manifesting itself in thousands of forms among the people and for thousands of years. And this consciousness does so in the most diverse forms of (in) perfection and the most recent appearances are not necessarily the most perfect one.

But all this comes from the consciousness of the GodlikeMan*.

And if a man on earth has an appearance of a prophet, hears a voice, gets a revelation that fits in his religion, then is is always the GodlikeMan who appears and takes that form that this particular man needs.

And every religious man addresses his idols, whatever name they use, whoever one adores, no matter how true or false his religion is, DIRECTLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY to the GodlikeMan. Even though this praying man gets his own associations, sees his own images and hears things that only fit in his own religion.

But it remains the appearance of the GodlikeMan, the consciousness of God the Father and God the Mother Who have materialized Themselves among mankind into the GodlikeMan, truly Son or Daughter of God, expressings Itself to mankind.

And there will be once a time when every man has direct communication with his or her My God and no longer needs intermediairies and thus develops himself to that one assignment namely to realize God on earth and to approach the consciousness of the GodlyMan.

And know that all the prophets and saints in the spiritual world do not have that discussion that mankind has about them on earth. And this is an understatement of God.

My blessings to you all

Jesus in my life

I have been "busy" lately with inner silence and sober living and self-control and purity. I do not want to call it chastity, certainly not, but it comes closely. And now throughout this period of preparation for Christmas I'm practicing meditation and reading about Jesus. Maybe I exaggerate a little bit, after all I have a tendency to proportions of everything or nothing, oh this intense way of life really tricks me sometimes. Haha especially if it about negative emotions, then God sees me grumbling.

But now Jesus, oh Jesus, what are You special, Your wonders, Your example, Your love, the conversation with Your Father, Your generosity, Your suffering.

Even if only 10% would be true, then still it is all impressive.

And one day when I just drove home from a family gathering and when I was musing on Jesus, I got so overwhelmed by the presence and closeness of Jesus, that I started crying for half an hour just out of emotion, happiness, love for Jesus, gratitude to his increasing presence in my life.

I have been impressed for days.

Oh Jesus, great love, great comfort, great support, great example.

I thank you, thank you, thank you.
My good God, would You like to comment on this?

My son, how could I not want this?

You have been touched for half an hour by the living Christ in your life.
But let no one who follows Mohamed, or Babaji or Krishna, or Buddha or any other great spirit, any other great son or daughter of mankind, any other Son or Daughter of God, let no one think, oh there you have another Christian, just a Jesus fan, that does not apply to me.

For to them I say, Your God spark, Your God, God Itself:

This is meant to be for everyone, this being touched on earth by God. For the Christ consciousness is nothing else than the Father-Mother God who impresses Itself on earth. It is the incarnate Eternity, which shares Itself with the earth-bound beings. It is the Kingdom of God, Allah, Brahman, Yahweh, the Almighty, the Eternal, the Unnameable. And that Kingdom is impressing itself on earth to man.

Every man can and will experience this. Here or later. On earth or in eternity. Every man will experience this, may experience this, can experience this, many men are indeed experiencing this, even if they give a different explanation to it.

And know this: the simple man who has let go just for a moment all his earthly attachments, who has put aside his ego, and who has opened himself just for a moment humbly to God, that simple man is that moment equal to Christ. Is that moment Son or Daughter of God.

You were it for half an hour, keep going on. And be blessed, My son.

My blessings to you all

The creature consoles the Creator

My God, though all religions may be what they are, so before Easter I would like like to go the Catholic way. I came across this sentence which Mother Mary is saying against Jesus her son just before he is facing his torture and his death:

“Because we know that our obedience comforts the eternal father. Oh! For me in particular what that thought is! I, a creature, have been granted, to console my creator!”*

Would You like to comment on this?

My son, how could I not comment on this, the great subject for God Who has mankind under Its care? This is the fascination of every Spark of God Who is working day and night for the spiritual development of Its earthly creature. I will love to go into this.

You console Me when you

• think of Me
• your heart opens up to the suffering of a fellow man
• lighten a person's life by your affection and jokes
• become silent at the beauty of a flower
• acknowledge My power and strength, when you think about life
• you nourish and cherish and protect your beautiful body from decay and addiction
• read in a conversation with someone between the lines of his words and suspect the hidden suffering and secret vulnerability
• forsake your ego
• you feed your personality by letting Me on the throne of your inner self
• behold My will and laws of more importance than the world with its allurements

In short, if you diligently listen to Me and obeys Me.
You are blessed for bringing the world in memory of this phrase.

My blessings to you all

Following Jesus' life as example

My God, I would like to say something?

In this Christmas season in which commercialism has taken over humanity I would like to reflect on Jesus' life, on his example as a human being.

This Christmas season may have a pagan background and actually be a celebration of the birth of the light. The Christmas tree may be pagan. The date of the birth of Christ may be wrong. What does it matter?
Actually only one thing seems to be important, Jesus was our example.
A man of love, a man of wisdom, a courageous person breaking conventions. Someone who was always willing to go to his Father for support and consultation, for trust and silence, for prayer and rest.

What would we quarrel if he is a creator of a cosmos, or son of God. If he is one of the great prophets or the Prophet. Will he ever box our’s ears that we did not know or did not believe him, did not acknowledge or understand him? He will only want to know if we tried to follow his example? Only tried so?

I am fed up with those religious conflicts, and that bickering, and whining about what to believe. I am really fed up with it. I do understand the atheists, who do not want have anything to do with religious fanatics who box each other's ears with their full or half-truths. Well, probably You will understand what I am getting at.

My son, it’s really something you are saying.

Jesus was a true man, a clear thinker, a true worshiper of God, a man of courage, a champion of justice. He was averse to hypocrisies and untruthfulness. He loved everybody being vulnerable, young or old, poor or sick, ugly or criminal. He knew in every person the promise of God to every man, to be allowed once to join the celestial meadows. And for this he served two goals on earth: to glorify God and to bring man closer to God.

And do not blame mankind, My son, she's just on the road.

And rest assured, mankind still has to go a long way, from animal to spirit, from struggle to surrender, from the outer to the inner, from earth to heaven.

God is man nearby on his path. Every person, at every step.

Jesus made great strides, but slowed his pace to join every human being.
In that sense he is Godlike.
For God slows It’s pace to bring along every human being.
For God knows man is pursuing only ONE course.
ONE course, ONE goal, ONE path, ONE promise.

My blessings to you all

Let go of a worldly attitude

Got Jesus?‏@JesusGracesDo not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. -Rom 12:2 Geretweet door God Loves

Would you like to comment on this tweet?

How can mankind make this possible? By renewing your mind (thoughts and feelings, in fact your attitude).
It is so simple that it is difficult for you all.

The old-Greek saying: "Panta rhei kai ouden menei”, or “everything is flowing and nothing is remaining”.
The ego is clinging to thoughts and they become dogmas and doctrines.
The ego is clinging to feelings and they become sentiments.
The ego is clinging to relationships and they become attachments.
The ego is clinging to affairs and they become fixation.
The ego is clinging to things and they become materialism.
Is it possible for the personality not to grasp anything, or rather after grasping letting it go again?

Yes, it's possible.
And what you are requiring is: insight and free will.

Insight.

That everything in your life is flowing towards you and may flow away again.
That you are so vulnerable, if you want to hold to everything.
That you'll stay uncertain, if you keep clinging to certainties.
That all is when it is. It all will come, when it comes. It all will go, when it goes.

The free will.

By constantly grasping and understanding the limitations and the misery of this grasping.
By letting go and experiencing freedom.
By surrendering and feeling how everything is flowing again.
By letting life happen to you.
By not wanting to interfere all the time.
By being ready to live empty-handed.

“Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind”

Tell Me, My son, what are you experiencing, when you are leaving the spinning wheel of the personality and are switching to the silent axis of existence, when you are welcomed in My Milky-white Bosom ?

Actually there is nothing whatsoever, there is silence, there is emptiness. There is absence of my personality. There's surrender, there is rest. There is Your overall presence of trust and love. I can no longer find myself then, I am all alone with You, You are, and I may experience It. Anything like.

This is the Kingdom of God on earth, silence and surrender and love, available for who has the insight and has the will to It.

My blessings to you all
