Heavenletter #4243 The Next Pair of Eyes You Look Into, July 7, 2012 

God said: 

Are you feeling blue? Are you feeling down? Then this is the time to look up. Look up at the blue sky. Look for Me, and you will find Me. You can find Me in the next pair of eyes you look into. You can find Me anywhere and everywhere. Start with the sky and look up. Look Heavenward, and you will begin to feel chipper. Even the idea of looking up will nourish your waning heart. What is feeling blue but looking down? Of course, look up. Look high. Look at something worthwhile to look at.

Heavenletter #4241 The Art of Seeing, July 5, 2012 

God said: 

The Garden of Eden is a metaphor, as all words are metaphors, as everything on Earth is a metaphor. Metaphors hold Truth, and there are great metaphors that hold Great Truth. And you are a metaphor, and you are a great holder of Truth.

That's it! You are a human metaphor. Metaphors in poetry say that two seemingly dissimilar things are alike. Metaphors speak of opposites. And yet there is also likeness. And equality. There is something true. The Truth is that all the people in the world are One. No matter how unique, no matter how opposite, everyone is One, One with you, and One with Me. Oneness, Oneness, Oneness. The Truth of Life is Oneness.

You have heard that life is not about you at the same time that life is all about you. Everything is as you think it is. You are all-important. And yet you are to serve. In that sense, life is not about you.

Life is a reflection of you, and yet life is not about you. It is about service. It is about love. It is not about love to you. It is about love from you.

You can only respond or venture in life according to how you perceive.

God said: 

Be grateful to yourself. Give yourself a well-earned pat on your back. What did you do today that you can be glad about, or grateful to yourself for? Instead of picking on yourself, chalk one up for you.

Do this often. Then you won't need so much input from those around you.

Whom did you smile at today? Whom did you give a kindness to? What doors did you hold open for others? Whom did you give a minute to? Whose eyes did you look straight into? To whom did you say, "Thank you?” Whom did you greet today? Whom did you cross the street to say hello to?

These may seem like small acts, yet they mean a lot, and you can like yourself for them.

Bless someone today, and bless yourself.

Above all, get out of the habit of pointing out inadequacies, yours or others. Whatever you think about another, you compound. Whatever you think about yourself, you compound. If you have generally seen yourself as inept, start thinking about the wondrousness of you. The same for the people around you.

When you want to show love, you may want to show it one way while the one you want to give love to wants to receive love in another way.

Some people make it easy for you to know what they would most like, and some don't. Some might like cash for a gift, for instance, and some never. Some might like cut flowers, and others like a potted plant. Some may like gifts more than anything. Some may care about another form of love much more. The combinations are countless.

It is not that you are to reinvent yourself to suit another person. Nevertheless, what means most to another? This is how it is with love and those you love.
