Christmas

 

We will be completing part two of the initiate at work on Friday January 11 at 1 PM.  It is required that if you are planning to participate in this class that you have complete part one as the material we will be covering including exercises will be of the advanced nature.

 

The major part of this class will be completed during the first one-hour time slot we have available and we will move to another subject, which I will announce later For the second part of the work.

 

In the meantime, I would like to touch on the subject of the gift. There are a couple of things worth noting whereas the following statements are pretty well self-explanatory and self-substantiating.  In addition, these statements I will be using the term God in the generic form. The first statement, “The Love expressed by the Whole and/or God is evidenced by every breath we take whereas each breath is the gift of Love itself”. “The proof is with each breath we receive we have the ability to work a path of Light and Love, and/or Darkness and/or Hate”.   No judgment here, just complete acceptance and permission to take any action you choose. Because of this, we do become responsible for actions determined by our understanding of those actions. With this in mind, we also must realize we cannot be held responsible either personally or by others for what we do not understand.

 

 Therefore, this next statement also holds true. “If you wish to expressed the Light within, then make everything you do a gift”. You see as you are exercising this quality from within yourself as you are also expressing the Love and Light available to every one of us. Now where this gets interesting is that in this process we are actually redefining our reality granting permission for those around us at all levels and activities to do likewise. We must also recognize because of challenges we require for our development, not everyone will always treat us better. However, those having a propensity to do so will have our permission to carry on a more constructive interaction with us.

 

It is important to recognize that while not necessarily guaranteed as we may have challenges we must face, but by testing these actions and/or procedures, you will find the tenants in this letter to be self-validating.

 

Make every loss you experience a gift. After all, it is through your breathing you are receiving of the ultimate gift that allows you to have all these various experiences. As you consider to do the same you will also become familiar with the act of exercising the gift; whereas validation of the twenty-third Psalm basically states in part, “my cup overflows”, and we can see by the evidence presented herein the statement is quite correct.

 

I would like to suggest the concept of considering something a loss to be an act of futility when every breath we receive contains within it such a great treasure. The treasure is so vast complete and numerous of which we “swim” in it every day causing us to take it for granted, and be without value. Therefore, we only have a propensity to into consideration things of value being of the intellectual and/or of the physical attributes. Yes, it is true and sometimes in business or other activities, we experience difficulties with losses and/or gains of material things.  These are a matter of normal activities each of us are challenged within our lives at various times.

 

While it is natural for us to lament a loss, it is important to remember to realize the loss is only temporary.  Lamenting a loss for an extended period only defines one’s Reality were only loss is permitted by our Reality. Repeating the describe pattern until you decides to do something different. If one were to consider a loss as a gift, then the event is no longer loss but rather a gift whereas the individual defines a condition confirming their cup truly does overflow. 

 

As you can see, as we draw our attention to the abundance spiritually and/or otherwise being of the Constructive nature, our Realities automatically adjusts in our life becomming abundantly constructive and loving. It is up to each and every one of us to do our best to carry on this activity.

 

I also find it is quite necessary to remind you that when you do have a particularly bad day or you are in one of those foul moods, these too are temporary and are likely the result of not having enough information to do things differently. Therefore, cut yourself some slack. Remember, like the natural cycle of summer to winter, our successes and failures will carry those very same cycles. By changing on how we define our world, will discover ways to make the successes more prevalent and the failures and/or setbacks diminishing their importance in our lives.

 

After all, we are a carrier of Light. This is verified by humanities natural propensity to help others in trouble has been evidence throughout history when disaster strikes.  After all, Love is all that matters, everything else is secondary.

 

In the bonds of the work I am,

 

Charles
