Good morning. God morning to you.

How would you feel right now if you had $7 million in your pocket or in your account or in that app on your phone that you knew you had access to, but that you were just choosing not to spend it right now, just sitting, listening to this, or walking down the street, or driving, or eating, knowing that you have $7 million in your pocket? How does that change your relationship with that moment, your relationship with your thoughts? How do your thoughts, the temperature of your thoughts, change? Most of your thoughts are about survival, are about money. That’s the state of our collective mind.

A lot of the Law of Attraction teachings have you feel like you have it, to fake it to make it. What I’m telling you is that there is no one there to hold the feeling of having it or not having it. There’s only having. There’s only Love. And all you’re doing is unseeing yourself, unseeing the one who is trying to hold or visualize or affirm or practice harder spiritually to attain something materially.

It does happen. Seemingly, it appears that way. The Presence of God appears as supply, as provision, as manna, as water from a rock, as Jesus under the rock, in the rock, as the rock everywhere. No matter where you look, He’s there. He is. Love is. And so we move from that egoic, feel-good practice of, “Let me feel good. Let me feel wealthy. Let me pretend. Let me ramp up the Love because what’s here, this Love that I have become aware of, isn’t enough right now. It’s not doing enough for me. The ROI, it doesn’t make sense for me. So I need something else. I’m still thirsty. I’m hungry.” Your eyes are hungry.

And then in that silence, no eyes, no hunger, no thirst. You’ll never thirst again when you become aware as the living water. You are not there. You were crucified with Jesus. Christ is there now. Only Love is there now. And Love has no needs. Love has no thoughts.

What is the silence of Love? Amma says that’s the only way you can interpret scripture, understand scripture, is in the silence. That the silence is the real scripture. That silence, that stillness. Once you learn the art of stillness, of stilling your mind, everything happens spontaneously and effortlessly. Franz Kafka said the world will offer itself to you to be unmasked. It has no choice, and it will roll in ecstasy at your feet. And you stop chasing it when you know it is not there. Smoke and mirrors. Chasing illusions. An illusion chasing an illusion. That’s why you haven’t made it. That’s why you feel stuck. That’s why you’re in a loop. Because you think there’s a loop. There’s no loop. There’s no you to be stuck. There’s no world to be stuck in, no body to be stuck in.

Jesus showed us that. No body. The tomb was empty. There’s an emptiness here that is full to the brim with Love, with a Light that is unlike what you see with those eyes, but you can hear it and you can sense it. And paradoxically, you can spend it and build with it and share it, eat it, all the things. It becomes all the things.

You have to forgive yourself by knowing that you’re not there. You have to forgive the others, not for what they’ve done seemingly. They knew not what they were doing. We were taught that, but it’s hard to hear. But if you know that they’re not there, that you’re not there to be hurt or to be victimized, to be taken advantage of, to be underestimated, undervalued. If you can see that they’re not there, only Love is there, that only God is there. Letting that essence replace the scene, replace that person entirely. You see with the eyes a person, but you feel God there. You feel God here, where you are, where you seem to be sitting or standing. Only God is there. You get replaced too. Becoming aware as that, that’s the provision. That’s the answered prayer. That’s the prayer.

But when you are back on the scene, you need things. You need everything and you’re begging, but you have a Father that would not require you, does not require you to beg for your daily bread. You receive it. You receive your inheritance, but you must forgive. That’s the seeming block that’s there. You’re still thinking you’re human. You’re still thinking they’re humans that can hurt you or help you. Forgive them. Know that they are only Christhood there.

In Wake Up to Love, someone shared a screen capture yesterday. I can’t quite see what page it’s on, but I say a note on forgiveness: “If you’re having a challenging time becoming aware of, sustaining, being, and spreading Love, it is because there is a belief present that you are guilty, unworthy, or need to forgive yourself or others. Right where that thought is, the state of forgiveness is. Those thoughts of ‘I am not there yet’ are sounding, appearing in the always present state of forgiveness.” Sit back up into forgiveness, into the remembrance of truth. The mind can’t think at this altitude. It’s quiet up here. The silence is forgiveness. The silence is everything. Everything that you’re trying to get to.

Then the mind comes in and says, “But I can get it for you. Let’s meticulously create ridiculous plans and schemes. Let’s manipulate the scene. Let’s use the material world to manipulate the material world.” It will never work. I’ve heard it akin to painting the walls of your room and the room is on fire, like moving new furniture into your sinking ship. It’s nonsensical, but that’s what we do. But not anymore. Not you. Not me.

One of the biggest enemies to hearing God’s voice in your life is busyness. Busyness of mind, thinking, thinking, thinking over Him, talking over Him. Even in the thinking, you can hear the silence. You just shift your attention, that little millimeter right next to the thinking, right next to the thoughts, right next to the sound, is the sound, the word. And then it may have you move. It may have you start making videos again like it had me do. I hadn’t done that for a year, and you just feel impulses. You hear that impulse, and there’s a part of you that won’t want to, that will resist. And it’s at that time that you must be obedient.

So I invite you to recognize in your life right now what you might be resisting, what you might be hearing, but not acting on. Because on the other side of that, there’s something, probably something that human you think you are wants, whatever it is you’re afraid of, or that gives you anxiety, frustrates you. If somebody brings it up to you, you want to shut it down. That’s what you need to do, and keep people around you that can talk to you in that way, that bring things to you until you do them. Because we’re all waiting for those words, the sentences that you have, the songs that you have, the poems that you have, the paintings, the business ideas, the non-profits, the service that is your soul. Deliver it so you can deliver us, the rest of yourself. Make time for it.

There is no time. There is no you. But get up earlier if you need to. Stay up later if you need to. Act like that is more important than whatever it is keeping you so busy. Whatever excites you, do more of that. Whatever helps others, do more of that. You know that feeling you get. That is the GPS that’s lighting up the excitement. That’s a sign. Do more of that, and do less of what doesn’t make you feel like that. Do less of what makes you shrink. Do less of what makes you have to put your mask back on. If you feel like you have to dress a certain way or look a certain way or do a certain thing to be around a certain group or to join a certain thing, don’t do it. Stay solo, stay out of it, and be with God.

And God will place you where He wants you. And He will place you there in the form that He wants you there, while you remain entirely aware as the formless. Your form will be fed and cared for greatly while you’re being formless, while you’re absent from the body and present with the Lord. Nikki’s sitting here on the mic. I’m with the Lord.

I love you. And we’ll chat soon.

I know what it feels like to wake up with a pit in your stomach and thoughts that are racing. I also know how to turn God up, and that automatically turns the thoughts down. It turns the anxiety down. You don’t have to carry this anxiety today. You don’t have to carry it alone. Every week, I hold space for private one-on-one spiritual direction intensives where we go straight to the heart of what’s keeping you from peace and pray through it together.
