Struggle is a resistance to change. The more you resist change, the longer the struggle.
Ponder the value of the struggle, is it worth it. Is this or any particular struggle a worthy opponent? Ponder, are YOU the struggle? Is the only change you are willing to make monetary, i.e. change for a dollar? Is not your value greater than that?
You are Power Manifest…Manifest Your Power!!!

Ponder This...Prayer & Meditation
Ponder your prayers and meditations.
When praying for something, are you ending your prayer in gratitude? Are standing firm in your knowingness, that which you are asking for you are worthy of? Are you asking Divine for shiny things or the deeper question, how can I be of service to my fellow beings?
When in meditation, are you emptying the mind of clutter? The art of meditation is to think of nothing, empty the mind of all thought. I always suggest that you install a metaphorical toilet handle and as thoughts attempt to pop up, flush them.
As the world and its inhabitants are going through deep, philosophical and material changes, why not seize this opportunity to change how you express your devotion. You are the greatest gift you can give to your loved ones and vice versa. Let us return to meeting, touching, talking and expressing ourselves in the purest form of communication. No human is an island, we all; yes WE all need each other. Pray that where you are needed, that you are there. Tithe with your time, your words. Be open to being someone’s ear, shoulder, lap or arms. For surely, one day you may need it. Be warm and generous in your extension and expression.
Today, when you ask someone how they’re doing, pause for their response and listen more to what their spirit is saying and less to their words. We are living in the times that Yeshua Immanuel spoke of, where greater works than he, shall we all do.
You are Power Manifest…Manifest Your Power to be of service and be willing to do the greater works that you are most assuredly capable of. Pray to be of service and meditate on nothing; find the fullness of your spirit in the emptying of your conscious mind.

Ponder This...A ? of Faith
During my morning meditation, Spirit spoke to me and asked me to look up the word faith; the prevailing definition is "A belief or trust in the unknown."
Ponder, when you look in the mirror, do you know you see a reflection or do you trust/believe that it is really you?
As I pondered this morning the weight of the word faith and other words that we use without taking into consideration their true meaning and not the accepted usage of them, I had to acknowledge the knowingness, the IS-ness that is GOD/DESS, Highest Self, and Divine!!!
Trusting is NOT knowing. Knowing IS.!!! Know with the fullness of your Spirit, the center of your being that we re-create and manifest in the physical what we create in thought both consciously and sub-consciously. As I write this, Spirit is saying to you and me, faith, indeed, is a step, a leap even, yet, it is not the journey. We can be of faith, yet, it is NOT where we are from.
We spring from knowledge, some of us forget that upon entry and spend time re-membering our selves. Others of us, intuitively know, yet question why, how, what, do I know? I pose again, this ponderment, if life is the kindergarten of existence, what grade are you in? We were raised from infancy to adulthood, isn't it time to grow you? Is it not time to find another source of nourishment, nutrition for your true self, that magnificent Spirit that is the essence of who we are?
Ponder, are you as diligent and regimented in shaping and sculpting your Spirit as you are with your physique? Become willing to grow to know!!!
You are Power Manifest…Manifest Your Power to exponentially grow the Spirit of Divine that is within, the true reflection of which we are all an extension.
Love and Light,

Ponder This...Give In to Take In
Ponder This...GIVE IN...TAKE IN
There is stillness in the air, an eerie calmness. For those that are doing their work…fret not, for you shall prevail. For those that are stuck, struggling for change, pay attention, for the road is bumpier ahead. What do I mean you ask? The word bitter has been bandied about recently, well, let's ponder that. Are you holding bitterness toward another or a situation? How's that working out for you? The way to resolve the past is to acknowledge its presence, glean the lesson with gratitude, and seek forgiveness, first, from self and then, others if necessary.
Finally, breathe and release.
I see some of you will be inheriting windfalls, while others will see your monetary resources blowing away with the wind. Know that the more you attempt to hold on and tighten your grip, the more control will escape you. You've got to let go to receive more! Again, let go to receive!!! Surely as you are still to be moved, let go to receive. More precisely and concisely, give in to take in.
Give in to Divine Source to take in the bounty of immense blessings that are yours by Divine Mandate.Spirit spoke "Take and pay no heed to those whom only believe that WE help those whom help themselves, for WE NEED NO ASSISTANCE." The only assistance SPIRIT, DIVINE SOURCE, needs from us is to get out of our own way…Give in to take in. Ponder that.
You are Power Manifest…Manifest Your Power to give in to DIVINE and take in all that DIVINE has for you.
Infinite and Endlessly Love and Light to you I send,

Ponder This...Finding God/dess...Losing Religion
Find the courage to lose your religion and dare, yes, dare yourself to find GOD.
In a crowded room, how can you hear GOD? If your preacher, teacher, pastor and priest all speak the same language as you, why then, do you need them to interpret what is allegedly the word of GOD? You have taken what a human has said to be the word of GOD, albeit, in good faith, as fact. Have you ever thought to ask GOD? They say you shouldn’t question GOD, you are not; you are questioning human’s interpretation of GOD. Who are “they” and what fountain of knowledge did “they” sip from? Why are “they” able to hear and translate and you, the lowly deaf ones not?
Ponder, you want GOD in your life on a daily basis, however, you commit, sometimes, to go to church, mosque, parish, synagogue on whatever day your religion dictates. Perhaps, you have a study day/evening where you read the word of GOD. Again, I ask how can you hear GOD? Every day is GODS day! “They” say that where three or more are gathered, there is GOD, as GOD is a Trinity, so too, are you.
Religion, of any ilk is a great path, but, it is NOT the journey. Religion puts GOD literally in a box and requires you to do the same. GOD is inerrant, humans are not. GOD’S word is sometimes exclusive, only for you and at others all inclusive, for all to hear. You were taught to memorize and are able quote from the various boxes of GOD, but, how many of you can quote the source, not the box? I have encouraged you to write the guide to loving you, now, I implore you to write your own guide to knowing GOD, for no one else but self.
Take responsibility for knowing GOD. GOD speaks to you through others when you are denying the knowledge, the knowing that you too can hear. For the tithing community, in your time of need where is your church, do they offer to assist or aide you financially or do they merely offer prayer? When did the Creator/Creatrix of all that you survey file bankruptcy? When did GOD/DESS begin to require you to pay taxes in order to receive a blessing? You want to share the bounty of blessings that is you, that have been bestowed upon you, look around, I am sure you can find many within your community, even within your families that you can give, if nothing else your time.
Ponder the words of our brother Yeshua Immanuel (Jesus) who said “Greater works than I shall you do” and ask am I doing it? Are you prepared to do greater works? Are you, as he was ready to take responsibility? He was born into the Jewish faith, yet, went on his own spiritual journey, adhering to no faith other than that which GOD spoke to him. Are you prepared to the same?
You are Power Manifest…Manifest Your Power to do greater works and to write your guide to knowing GOD/DESS, in all ways, always with harm to none and blessings to all.

Ponder This...Tending The Garden of You
Tend the garden that is you.
Pull the weeds from their roots (unnecessary things and people) even the ones that appear to be pretty flowers(sunshine friends), for they are usurping vital nutrients (blessings) from you.
Till and nurture your soil (spirit and soul). Sow your seeds (thought and energy) and prepare to reap the bountiful harvest that is your Divine Birthright!
Remember, mistakes are unlearned lessons that offer nothing more than hindsight. Lessons offer foresight. Look ahead, think presently, act, no, be your future now! Struggle is a resistance to change, the more you resist, the longer the struggle. We were not created to struggle nor to suffer, those are unfortunate choices we make. Choose now to choose different.
Honor and accept the blessing, first and foremost that is you. Commit to share the blessing of you daily, humbly without the need for accolades. For the true giving spirit asks for nothing in return, least of all acknowledgment. No matter your employment or lack there of, find a way to be of service, for that is truly why we are here!
You are Power Manifest...Manifest Your Power to Grow and Nurture You, to feed the spiritually needy, the soul deprived of love, the heart in need of touch and the ear desperate for a kind word. Do so freely and always be of service to your fellow beings.
That is a garden that will know no drought and be infinitely replinished.
Love and the immense light that shines within you, may you radiate it outward that it may warm the world that surrounds you...

Ponder This...Heeding Spirit
Even in utter darkness there is light. By awakening the supra-conscience you can reveal all things hidden. You must acknowledge your knowledge before you can progress to the next level. Answers abound, they are all around waiting, like truth to be discovered. What would it take for you to shake the burden of your "human" bondage? You must be willing to release all things earthly in order to receive.
Here in this the Age of Aquarius histories secrets are being revealed, likewise on the "personal" level secrets are being revealed.
You must pay close attention to your "dreams" for they are giving you insight for the tomorrows to come. Begin to document them, within a short "time" you will see your visions manifest.Hold true to these things that I say to you for they shall come to pass. You must keep beacons burning about you at all times for the dark shall surely seek you. Don't misunderstand, the dark is necessary for without darkness there can be no rest, no regeneration, indeed no evolution.
Here is where the shaded spirits are now, they can sense the evolution and because they are unenlightened and unwilling to evolve, they have initiated war. There are wars to be fought; they are not of a physical nature. The battles that are to be waged shall be in the spiritual/ ethereal realms. The shaded spirits are attempting to provoke the enlightened/evolved spirits to take physical form, and for this they are not prepared. The bible says as it is above so it is below. The aforementioned shaded spirits, having access to ancient documents, believe themselves know the hour, but they have once again taken it literally.
Highest Spirit speaks in between lines which is how you are to read there conveyances; in between the lines. You cannot be linear in your thought process. Right now there are major separations going on, wives and husbands, children and parents, governments and constituents, businesses and employees. It is being done to allow the higher self to assess whether this/these is the spirit that you want to be with you through this evolutionary process.
Choose wisely; choose not that which looks good, yet, that which is to your highest good, best. Remember, that no human is your source or resource, only Highest Self, the Supreme and Divine IS/I AM Mother/Father GOD/DESS!!
As this is the time of the Divine Mother; Her presence remerges from the depths of human consciousness, watch and feel the might of her displeasure with those who choose to ignore her. Feel the earthquakes, Her contractions as She gives birth to evolution. Watch and listen as Her tears become floods to cleanse. Her sighs, whip winds that churn the sea to reclaim and reveal. What the human calls catastrophe, is but, Mother. What religions call the end of times is linear thinking personified. These are indeed the last days, the last days of confusion, wrong and erroneous use of will. These are the last days of misinformation and distorted truths. The new day is dawning, where true knowledge, knowledge that cannot be found in books, tomes or false temples. This knowledge of truth is written within a very sacred and hallowed temple, Yours, Mine, and Ours. Encoded within each of our Spiritual DNA is that truth, we must remember it. It is imperative that we each acknowledge our knowledge, as we do, share your knowledge, speak your knowledge, live it, breathe it.
The highest love one can give is of the Spirit, no endings, no beginnings only evolution. As you, as I, as we evolve together breathe from the Spirit and true life will never stop!!! Be appreciative, show kindness and consideration to your fellow beings in thought and surely it will manifest outwardly. Be grateful to our wondrous and beneficent Divine Parents, as we are their reflections, how we are to each other speaks volumes on the respect or lack thereof we have for THEM!!!
You are Power Manifest...Manifest Your Power of the right use of Will, to will change for the Highest best for all beings with harm to none and blessings of harmony, peace and love without provocation nor expectation abundantly and prosperously.
