It's strange to feel heaven and yet not be able to help others see it unless they're ready. I pass up talking with people who like to dance with words about what "it's all about." They are full of opinions and beliefs, having fun stretching their mental muscles. That's okay for them, but that dance holds no meaning for me. I have walked through doorways to something so much more, that makes me hungry for even more.
If I tell you that the most profound joy and goodness imaginable is but a taste of God's nature, will it have meaning for you? Can you let go of ideas like God is punishing you when something painful happens in your life, so you can draw from God what you most need, so you can go through the experience with Divine support? Will what I share with you help you stop focusing on "sin", "sinners".... and help you know that the most profound holiness and goodness is part of you--is your Divine nature. The inner core that is Divine and pure in us can be ignored by us, but it doesn't change that it is there. And if we focus on it instead, express it, we will be touching what is Sacred in us. We can't touch that without touching God and experiencing the Divine qualities of God.
When Jesus appeared to me, I asked what he meant by "sin." Jesus told me that sin was an act of "unlove" toward yourself or another. I could not imagine that the answer would be like that. But there it was. How God thinks of sin. That answer makes it easier to look at our actions and see them for what they are--are they loving or not? It puts the focus on what we need to look at--what are truly loving actions and what are not. Recognizing that can lead to growth and much more. It gives us a focus, a measuring stick on whether we're really being spiritual as God means "spiritual." It makes it easier to identify where we are stuck; where we go off track; where we need help.
There was no condemnation in Jesus about the word "sin." It was just a fact. To sin means to commit an act of "unlove." So if we are all sinners, then it means we need to know more about what spiritual love is so we can clearly understand it and live it. And that is the spiritual journey.
Love is the fabric that all of Creation--people, animals, everything, are tied to spiritually. For our Divine natures to truly blossom, then our foundation must be strong in understanding and knowing what spiritual love is, and living it. And when we go off track, to recognize it and discover why we went off track so we can change that behavior or way of thinking, and move forward again.
Our minds cannot "create" what Spiritual love is. It exists, whether we live it or not, because it did not come from us. It is the tie we share with all things. If you can let go of your opinions, beliefs, ideas and go to God and ask to be guided and shown what God means by spiritual love, you will free your mind to receive an Answer bigger and better than anything you have been taught or believe. God wants you to know. Ask.
Happy New Year. May this posting give you food for thought. ...Batyah

Hello Batyah,
I enjoyed reading this wonderful post. Your words, "I have walked through doorways to something so much more, that makes me hungry for even more." -- certainly resonate with me! I too, have walked through those doorways. In fact, I have even painted a picture of one of them.
I will look forward to reading more from you. Thank you for sharing your heart.
Blessings to you ~~~~
