Guidance From Yusef: Awaken to Who You Really Are

Posted on by

In an earlier post Yusef told us:

Our intent is to encourage the AWAKENING of all Souls to LOVE during the Earth time! This benefits all Souls.  Awakening to LOVE allows that LOVE to bless all. As each one awakens, ALL are blessed in ways that are unimaginable to you now.

The reasons so many go through the day mindlessly, without thinking, are many, but in the simplest term, it is because many are ASLEEP:

  •  to what is really going on around them
  • to their own divine True Self, the Soul,
  • to their own actions, and perhaps more importantly,
  • to the motivations behind their actions.

This unawakened nature allows people to go through the world in a comfortable, status quo-like daze.  Though full of fear over their past and future issues and concerns, they move forward day-to-day fully believing that this is the “norm” for life on Earth.

And so it is for many.  The days go by filled with work, child or elder care, studies for school, or some other activity that we think is our lot or duty in life, while the person is robotically unaware of the unseen world, or the truth about themselves.

The truth is that our Soul, our Divine DNA, is who we are.  We are not our job, our status in the community, or even the body that we wear on this Earth.  To begin to know our True Self (Soul) we must get past the ego personality that we THINK is the real us, and its defenses of pride, judgment, rationalization, and fear.  We need to WAKE UP to our inherent goodness, our ultimate worthiness, and our oneness with the God of Love!

It does help to realize that we are the ones “authorizing” the barriers to awareness; we are the ones who allowed them to go up, and it is only we who can supervise their tearing down. Yusef says, You authorize the forces within you that keep you from Soul communication.  They hold no power apart from that which is given them.

Getting to know yourself is the greatest and most important work you can do in this lifetime.  Not easy of course.  No great discovery is easy.

To be continued….

Guidance From Yusef: Finding the Path

Posted on by

In the previous post Yusef tells us to “sync” our actions and thoughts with our purpose on the Earth.  But how do we know what our purpose is?

We’re told not to actively try to find our purpose. Unknown “To seek the purpose for your life involves the ego and that can actually have a counter-effect”.  We may get derailed by that.  Yusef also says that any step we take becomes the right step.  What…no right or wrong?  (Guidance From Yusef: Finding Our Purpose)

So let’s review…we’re to “sync” our actions and choices to a plan/path we can’t yet see, and even though it’s important to do that, there are no right or wrong paths to take.  Yikes!  An enigma of the Universe.

Why can’t we just see a heavenly light shining on the best path, or get a ‘way-to-go’ for the actions we take? Perhaps a high-five now and then for a decision or choice so we know we’re on the path and following our plan.  Ah, how easy life would be then. All nicely laid out in black and white, or perhaps wild Technicolor….

Too bad the Universe doesn’t work that way.  We have been given free will to do whatever we choose to do on this Earth (actually in the Heavens as well, but that’s another day). (Guidance From Yusef: Our Purpose and Free Will)

The secret then is this—when we align our actions to our internal compass and act according to the beliefs, values and principles that we hold at the core of our being—it is then that we find PEACE within ourselves.  That peace lights up the path for our lives. Then what we are doing comes from what we know to be true and we are not betraying our own inner guidance.  It is to be in a FLOW of sorts, moving to an internal rhythm and compass.  That sense of peace and the feeling of being in the flow are the signs that we are on the Path, following the Plan for our lives.

Don’t misunderstand or think that peace of body, mind, and spirit is necessarily found on the easy path.  Quite the contrary, it is often in the demanding or challenging situations and jobs that we find the most peace and sense of fulfillment.

How do we recognize peace?  It requires a “tuning in”.  It means moving out of the  busyness of the body and mind to get into a quiet space for just a moment to be able to sense it.  I remember going to sit in the quiet beside the ocean once to find the peaceful path before making a big decision in my life.  Another way is to check in with the body.  The body doesn’t lie, and it will let us know if we are in sync.  If there is a discomfort somewhere within, often in the gut, that can be trusted and then we can make the necessary adjustments in our life. (Not always easy to do, but well worth it!)

Remember, we’ve already planned our life circumstances in order to fulfill our purpose. (Guidance From Yusef: Purpose for Our Lives) We just need to be where we are right now, tuned in to our inner guidance for the way that brings the most peace. That will absolutely be the “right” path.

 

Guidance From Yusef: We “Judge” Ourselves

Posted on by

I asked Yusef about the absence of judgment from the Universe.  He reminded me that we humans continue to cling to the idea of a separate Divine Being, or God, that judges us or bestows mercy upon us.  And that’s the issue—our belief that God is separate from us.  God is not separate from us.

We are one with a God that is only Love.  To “judge” us, God would have to be separate from us and punitive which is a human concept, not the divine reality.  God can only be Love.

We do have the freedom to choose our actions but accountability comes with that freedom.  We will lovingly “judge” ourselves when we pass from this earth, by reviewing what we’ve learned in this lifetime, and how we have grown in Love.

YUSEF:
There IS a review of efforts expended on Earth.  There is an accounting of the good accomplished, an account of the soul’s growing.  And there is great love around that.

The heavens rejoice at obedient servants’ behavior.  Obedient to the [life] plan designed.  There is much value individually and for all.  Note, when we speak of obedient, we refer to the “syncing” of your decisions, choices, and actions with the reason [purpose] for the incarnation. Do not put another connotation to the word used.  It is your obedience to your own plan that brings the greatest good for yourself and all.

The review of our efforts and actions is not the same as the threatening, punishing “judgment” that many religions put forth.  Rather, we experience a review of what was learned in the lifetime.  We are reminded that WE planned this lifetime and the more we can follow that plan, the more we will benefit.  Some call the life plan the “will of God”.  More on how to recognize it later….

Guidance from Yusef: Be Light and Love and Joy in the World

Posted on by

This is a truly EXCITING message!  There are many illusions on this earth, and it’s hard to see that who we really are is Light and Love!

There is more to us than we realize—much, much more! We carry the spark of God’s divine Light within our very DNA.  We are a part of God!

Now we’re asked to be open to bringing that divine Light of love and joy into the world, especially at this important, confusing, and turbulent time in our history.  Enjoy this one!  

YUSEF:

Gracious mercy is the Earth’s.  Growing, evolving, rotating forward.  Thus will all come to know the wondrous glories and mercy of One.

All rejoice!  Love is!

Expectations do not serve.  Trust serves.  Love serves.  Wonder and awe serve.  Going forth in joy serves.  Most assuredly when no joy can be seen or found, joy serves.

Earth’s illusions are many.  Reality is other.

Heed well.  BE joy for those who cannot see joy.  BE Love for truly Love is what you are.  And in the Love is Joy.  And in the Joy is Light shining forth.

All else is NOT.   Delusion.

Sing of the Light—streaming forth.  See the Light in others, not with human eyes but with the sense beyond the senses.  Live in Love and Light.

Find the Light and all else will follow.  First find the Light.  The way has been given.  It will be necessary to see the Light in the darkness to come.

Streams of Light pour forth—guiding all.  The way is “lit up” as you say.

Changes are occurring, within and without.  Information flows.  Open the other senses to receive that which is beyond your understanding, that which will assist in the growth and evolution toward All, toward That Which Is, toward the Light.

Beyond the Earthly senses is that which we call you to.  Open further to receive the help/assistance forthcoming.

Rejoice in joy, in love, in trust.  Know that all is as it is in perfect Light.  Open.  See. Be in the Light that others may see and know even beyond what you see.  For through the Light God is and may be seen.

In the doing is the blessing.  In the being is God.  In the action taken out of the being(ness) is blessing.  Blessing that goes out/emanates into the Universes.  Therefore follow the Light of Being to find the active way.  In this is God shown to the world.

 

Guidance From Yusef: Our Divine Potential

Posted on by

We have within us, in our very DNA, a divine spark.  Some call it Spirit.  It is our connection to God, to the Father who is with us still—always connected, never separated.  But many of us don’t see that connection—the Light, the divinity within us.  We are a manifestation of God on this Earth, here for a purpose that only we can do.

We are spiritual beings having a human experience.  We are not humans having a spiritual experience—that’s backward.  The world would like us to think we are inadequate, not enough, unworthy to be called holy children of God, but that’s not the reality.  We ARE enough, and we are supremely worthy because we are a part of and loved by the Source of all that is.  And we have the support and assistance of all the Heavens in what we have come here to do.  Yahoo!!  When we can begin to see that, and accept its truth, then we can pass on that “Good News” to others as we live each moment in the Light.

YUSEF:

Recognition of the holiness, the godliness, Unknownthe spark of Light within each would benefit all [on Earth] and All [in the Heavens].  There is none existing without this divine spark, this “touch” of All That Is, God.  None.  Else it would not exist.

The potential to accomplish the task  set out by God is immense and important.  Thus the living of this day, this moment in recognition is strongly advocated.  The lifetime carries with it opportunity that is sacred in its potential.

The time for negating, rationalizing, denying is over.  The time for recognition, for acceptance, for embracing, for sharing is here.

SEE—ACCEPT—PASS ON.

In the passing on are we there also, assisting in the transmission of the message.  Trust in this, that the seeds within the message will take root.  Fear nothing.  Pass on the message.

Not all will hear.  There is a readiness factor, as you say.  But the seed is sown.  And the potential is there.  Trust.  Seeds can remain dormant to come forth when conditions for the growth’s survival are more optimal.

Share the knowing.  Scatter the seeds.  Those blessed with knowing and seeing and being in the Light—share!  Thus will all and All be blessed.  Amen.

Guidance From Yusef: Potential for Our Growth

Posted on by

The mighty oak tree is within the tiny acorn.images-34  The magnificent butterfly is within the lowly caterpillar.   The great world leader is within the small child.  It is all potential.

Yusef speaks of the potential for change and growth that is within each person. He assures us that even though growth may seem impossible, the potential is there nonetheless.

Who, after all, can envision an oak tree from a small acorn, a butterfly from a caterpillar? If you weren’t aware of the cocoon, could you believe it?  And how can YOU become something more, or different, than you are right now?

YUSEF:

Growth is not a matter of chance.  It is the effort each organism, and each part of the organism, makes to push past the restraining forces.  The seed must push out of its restraining shell in order to become the tree.  The seed pod is often stronger than the new growth straining to be free.  It takes the external force of water or an animal or something else to assist in breaking down the barrier to growth.  To the seed this may even be a violent episode.  And yet the result is the freeing of the life within to grow.

The life you enter [on the Earth] is in itself a restraining force, as most persons believe what the senses communicate and forget that you have a direct connection, a conduit, to all knowledge.  If you could imagine all that is possible, if each person were open to that source of knowledge, it would change life as you know it.  Each person would receive the information they need to contribute to the overall body of knowledge on the Earth.

It is happening more and more, and changes are becoming more dramatic, but the potential for growth is so beyond your understanding right now that you could not imagine the possibilities of life in the full, the “Kingdom” on Earth.  We wish this for you.  We wish to share the great unfathomable joy we know.

Guidance From Yusef: See as a Child Sees

Posted on by

Yusef suggests that we are here to learn who we really are—Souls experiencing humanity.images-33  He refers to that knowledge as an ability to see differently—to remember what is really true.  He tells us that as children we were able to “see”, but as we grew we lost some of that natural sight.  Perhaps that is what Jesus is referring to when he tells us to become as little children.

YUSEF:

For all [Earth School is] a struggle–some choosing the harder way, some more at home in the lessons.  These last are closer—their memories returning.  The fog veil is lifting for them. Their SEEING is different. They see beyond and through what is present.

The seeing uses more than the physical eye.  This involves the mind, heart, and soul.  For it is a remembering of reality beyond the physical eye.

Children see differently until told that they are not really seeing.  They see through imagination—practice that.  It is a doorway.

Love allows the seeing—also another doorway.

Try harder to stay open—yet another key.

See differently. See what is there and yet not seen.

It is attention we speak of.  Attend to each presentation before you.  BE present with your FULL attention and more will become evident.  Great energy is required.  Rid yourself of distraction to be able to focus on that which is right before your eyes.  All is given.  All is shown you.  You have only to SEE it.

Do not judge.  In that much is lost—SO much is lost.  Only be open—take in everything—let no shadow be lost to your observation.

In all things give praise and glory to the One, All in All.

The heavens, too, hum with praise—undercurrent to all movement—the hum of life.

Ever and ever

Joyful, joyful,

Rejoicing always,

Knowing.

 

Guidance From Yusef: Earth School

Posted on by

Yusef clearly answers the question that we humans have about life in other images-33parts of the Universe when he tells us that the Earth is “but one of many” worlds.  We know that we come into this lifetime for a purpose and that there is nothing random about our being born to this Earth. So, out of all the places we could “go” in the Universe, this Earth planet was our choice for this life experience.  Nothing is coincidence!  We are here for a reason–to learn and grow.

Yusef also tells us that many in the Heavens have spent time on this planet, and that it is loved and cherished yet he warns that the Earth is on a dangerous course toward extinction.  He says we have much to learn.

YUSEF:

Your world is but one of many.  Residing in all corners (areas) of the Universe your saying “We are not alone” is more than true.

We eagerly await every chance to communicate the message [of Love] to the Earth.  Earth will not last on its present course.  Earth is precious to us.  Many here have spent time there—most difficult times assuredly, but it is loved as is all creation.  It has been given to humankind to care for.  The offenses against the earth and against man are many.  So much to learn.  So far to go.  The school that is Earth is yet hope for many.

Yusef refers to this Earth as a “school,” and goes on to use that analogy to explain why we have come to Earth at this time. He reminds us that we are students here.  We are here to learn, but just like students in our earthly schools, we all approach that learning in different ways.

As your children struggle with the schools that you send them to—

some struggling to be still…

some struggling against authority…

some struggling to learn…

some at home [in the school], eager and able…

so do you react to the life chosen for learning this lifetime.

As he always does, Yusef once again reminds us that we are not alone, that we have helpers to assist us, and that every moment on this Earth provides us opportunity for Soul growth.  Exciting and challenging!  School!

In the heavens and beyond lies the most fertile ground for growth.  The earth is a testing ground chosen for its ability to refine the entity [person].  It is also an opportunity to encounter others who can assist in this effort.  These others are not always perceived as helpers.  You must recognize that not one moment of your time is lost or spent idly.  Every moment is opportunity for advancement, growth, evolution, and in conjunction with others it increases exponentially.  This language you would understand, however, the growth occurs at even greater magnification than your vocabulary allows.   

Guidance From Yusef: Our Purpose and Free Will

Posted on by

This post is for those who are concerned about what some refer to as PREDESTINATION.

I asked the question.  “What of free will then?  Why don’t we just come to this Earth and do our PURPOSE, the Life Plan that we laid out?”  Yusef has a sense of humor about that.

YUSEF:

Ah, what fun would that be? “Free will” is the Soul’s challenge to itself.  It is the individual’s opportunity.  which-way-to-goThe life path is for individual souls but it is SO much bigger–acting and interacting with so many others.  Intricate are the plans, as in a puzzle, each piece important to the next. 

Free will then tests each soul to grow with its own choices. Each choice does of course affect the whole/the plan. However free will is a “bonus”, an opportunity for Soul to be present to the world in a way that is only possible in each choice moment. The potential for Soul growth in these choice moments is phenomenal.

The Life Path is intricately designed to benefit the Soul and Humankind.  Each [person] has an impact on the path of course, but great is the consequence for the Soul. No choice is totally independent of others, but the Soul impact and potential to grow comes in each choice made.

Following the will of God, that is actually your will, or Life Path, reaps benefits worthy of a king or queen. This path, laid out with great care and consultation, fulfills the purpose for which each has come into the lifetime. Far reaching are the benefits. Doing the will of God, or following your Life Path, blesses all more than you can imagine. 

Guidance From Yusef: Purpose and Choice

Posted on by

Each of us has chosen this critical time in history to be born into the world.  We have an opportunity and responsibility to achieve our own Soul’s purpose, but we also have a special opportunity to help move our world from chaos to peace. It all depends on the choices we make each moment. It’s all about our choices…. And it’s nice to know that there are no “wrong” choices.  Takes the pressure off a little!  (I’ll bet you might have a question or two about that last idea!)

YUSEF:

Awareness is helpful and would be important to cultivate.  The power of the Universe is in each one.  Know this without doubt.  Do not resist this idea or try to understand or make sense of it.  Interactivity, not interdependence, is a key idea.  All paths interact, some at closer proximity.

It is not important that each knows the details of the choices made.  It is important that the choices have charted a path and each choice made creates the path set out.  Wilderness hikers experience this as each step moves them forward toward an unseen destination, each step creating a new energy in its interactions with the environment.

Each choice leads to the next.  What most do not yet realize is that there is light provided to determine the way.  Most are not aware of it.  There are many ways to see the light—all do not have the same experiences.

Any step taken becomes the “right” step.  There is no right or wrong.  Let go of the idea of “right and wrong”.  Options are presented which are accepted or not.  [But] when the step, or choice made, and it is congruent [aligned] with the STATE* of the person, then all is advantage and growth.  The state of the person, then, becomes a contributing factor to the growth, or evolution, experienced as a result of the choice.

(*The state of a person involves beliefs, ideals, values, principles, etc.  When the choices we make align with our beliefs and principles, then Yusef tells us there is opportunity for growth and living out our purpose.)
