Guidance From Yusef: The Flow

YUSEF:

We speak now of the “flow” as you say. There are many ways to flow—some flow in a work life that carries them day to day (and it may even continue into the night). This is often a flow of anxiety and stress. This is indeed one example of “flow”.

Others may enjoy a “flow” of retirement wherein their days are full—doing as they chose and taking in the slower flow of nature and friendship, or embracing new outlets for creativity or service to others.

The FLOW we speak of is actually entering heaven now.

This flow—using the river analogy—carries one through life. There is awareness of the shallows and depths and rocky sides along the way, yet also the realization that this river is much more than water. This is a RIVER of LIGHT; a river of Spirit, carrying one through life. In this river one still experiences all the joys, pain, sorrows, and trials of life on the Earth, BUT with a sense of being carried, supported, comforted, and led through each experience.

To be in the flow of this river takes more than dipping a toe in the water. It means jumping in fully/completely—with faith and trust—into the river that is LIFE.

It means EXPERIENCING all life has to offer—all life brings. The difference is that when one is in this FLOW, there is no despair, no real heartache, no anxiety. There is pain, but no suffering. There is no resistance to what life brings—only acceptance. There is learning—not sought after, but merely noticed and accepted.

There is joy, sometimes interrupted by sadness, but always returned to quickly—the joy that is always there under the current of life’s difficulties.

There is comfort and support in the flow, and you remember it and turn to it, recognizing there is more to life than turmoil and troubles.

Those in the flow recognize when they are NOT in it, and do their best to return to it. They may need help, especially those new to the flow. Returning is the only way to experience Heaven on the Earth. 

Allow the FLOW, the Heavenly river of LIGHT, to carry you through your life. 

Guidance From Yusef: True Reality

YUSEF:

We remind you again that we are here with you always. You may call us by many names but we are sent by the One (God) to be with you and to assist you. You are much loved and are never alone.

We remind you now to chose Love. Chose Joy. Live in these. Also in Hope. Do not allow the troubles of the world to obscure the Joy that is true reality. Do not allow your joy to be “hacked,” as you say, by other than Love.  Remain in Love, that the world may be saved by it.

The one writing this has learned that each one [of you], choses your own “reality.” We applaud this learning and speak of it now. Do you realize this?

  • You chose what to believe and what to discard.
  • What to remember and what to forget.
  • How to live and how not to live.

Each day, each moment, you make the choice to live in Love and Hope, or to live in fear. Let the reality you live in be of Love, Light, Joy, and Hope. Come back to these again and again.

Do not allow the “reality” of another, or others, become your reality. You have the choice.

Do not give fear (worry, concern, anger, frustration, resentment) your time or your energy. These are not of Love.

We acknowledge the challenges you face in your world. Therefore we remind you again that we are here to assist. Turn to Life-Giver/Love/God—the True Reality. 

Guidance From Yusef: We Are Here To Offer You Guidance, Part 2

YUSEF:

We [Angels and Guides] speak to every one of you. Each of you has guidance for the “best” path through this life. In any moment you can ask us to help, and we will guide you.  

Open the “ears” of your heart. It is the heart that hears us best. The next is the body. Listen to the signals your body gives you. Does the choice you are making feel comfortable in your body?

Very last is the mind, the seat of the EGO. The mind will distort our messages and cause you to want to dismiss them. You may even think you are crazy when you realize you can “hear” our guidance. You can hear us. Do not let your mind tell you that we are not real. That is your mind playing tricks, as you say.

The heart hears and sees clearly. Take a moment to be silent and check in with your heart when making a decision or choice. This can be accomplished in seconds…it does not take long—merely focus. Through this practice you will come to know we are with you always—to help you and guide you.

We know the purpose you have agreed to for your life. That is our “GPS.” We are here to remind you, and assist you to accomplish that purpose. Listen. We are with you.

 

Guidance From Yusef: Freedom to Choose

Note: Yusef has many words for God, but one that I find myself using lately is “Godness.” To me it indicates the ALL that is God, and it removes the sense of gender so common to us. Universe, Source, Father, The Divine, ALL, Godness. Chose whatever term you are comfortable with as you read. 🙂

And for the first time in a long time Yusef offers us what he refers to as “Knowings.” These are short declarations of truth.

YUSEF:

There is a freedom in the “Godness,” as you say, that allows each person to experience what it chooses—to expand and grow based on the choices it makes.

Growing is not an option. All is growth/expansion, or it withers and dies. Thus the direction of growth has a thrust or determination based on the choices made.

We have spoken of choices and their importance. Perhaps it becoming clearer now.

KNOWINGS:

All are a part of ALL. There can be no other.

There is freedom in the ALLNESS [God].

All [God] continues to expand/grow/evolve.

As in all life, the rate of growth is flexible.

Freedom allows choice. Choice is the only way ALL [God] can experience the diversity of expression.

Vibration of the light within each one reflects the choices they have made.

Guidance From Yusef: Light and Color (continued)

YUSEF:

In the color analogy [with white representing God, or all color, and individual colors representing souls], when the color “blue” choses to merge its beauty with ALL colors, it becomes a part of WHITE (God). It never loses itself however; it remains free to be itself—feely joined with all colors and dancing within the white light of God.

There are other choices—to move toward black and be lost in the darkness is a choice. Lost is an appropriate word since the merging with blackness means being absorbed—the freedom of the color/soul to be itself is lost.

There are some persons who make this choice—little by little they move toward the darkness. (As we have said, one choice leads to the next choice.) 

The choice for a soul to enter the metaphorical darkness causes a shuddering in the Heavens. There is a loss felt that all recognize. This is a tremendous occurrence/event/happening. Abyssmal.

Yet mighty efforts continue to bring light into the darkness. When the light is allowed in, then little by little, the souls may remember themselves. This is a dynamic that requires much that you are unable to find words for or understand now. 

Remain in the Light. Grow in the Light.

Guidance From Yusef: On Light and Color

Barbara: Yusef gives us an interesting metaphor for God (white light) and we who are of God (colors within the white light). A little background from science:

White light consists of all colors in the visible light spectrum. Each color retains its hue and shade while still being a part of the Whole-White. For example, blue can be found within white. It can be seen as blue when the white light is passed through a prism, reflecting the color blue as well as all the colors (of the Rainbow).

In Yusef’s example, think of yourself as blue, or green, or red, and God as the white Light. You are still yourself, yet you are at the same time a part of the All, God.

Black on the other hand absorbs all colors. Blue loses its hue and shade when absorbed into black. No prism will reveal a color in black. It is impossible to extract a color from black. No light bounces off black.

YUSEF:

You are all indeed an intimate part of God. There are some in the Light and some yet in the darkness, and some on the continuum between light and dark.

God is an ever evolving force. God, or Pure [white] Light, is accommodating, including, and encompassing all the expressions and shades of Light. 

Think of the “color” white. It is white because it includes all colors. Each color is yet itself, and it is at the same time a part of the whole—white.

Black, or darkness, also includes colors, yet in black the colors are absorbed and are no longer themselves. Black is the absence of the incredible spectrum of color that makes up white.

Remain in the Light.

More coming on this subject….

 

 

Guidance From Yusef: Wholeness

YUSEF: The dance, the song that is both human and divine has been danced and sung by few. Jesus was/is one.

Recognize that your divine nature and human nature are one nature. This may be difficult to understand with the human mind, but remember that you have access to the Divine mind.

Learn to access this. It is YOU in your fullness—human and divine. There is no secret, no skill to learn, no “password.” It is simply WHO YOU ARE in the fullness and wholeness of YOU.

The one writing this acknowledges the presence of OTHER. It is recognized as part of her and allowed to be present.

Each must find their own way to “allow” the presence of the divine, of whom they also are, while in the human nature.

The “difficulty” is only a human thought. There is no difficulty—there is only ease in allowing WHO YOU ARE to be present while in your human state.

Guidance From Yusef: Take a Stand

This is a strong message from the Heavens, received this week. We are called to look at our beliefs and what we stand for in our heart and soul. Further, we are asked to begin to see more clearly, through that soul-lens, what is happening in the world. We can no longer be complacent.

YUSEF:

You are observing the changes we have predicted.** There are many in the Heavens working to call all peoples to stand for their beliefs. Do you know what you believe? What you would take action or no action for? (There is no judgment here.)

Some will take action and be heard and seen. That is their role. Some will stand firmly supportive for what they believe, but in the background. And some will wonder what is happening—swaying in whatever wind happens by. 

There is the way of love and there is the way of evil. Both are active now on the Earth—both vying for time, attention, and hearts. Learn to recognize that which seeks to divide or unite, to sow love or hate. We do not speak of one person or one way. Learn to see.

For those who chose to act, this will be done in many ways. Each will look different. Each one doing what they are called to do. Make no judgments regarding this. All must follow the guidance of the Higher Self.

And this is most important:  In whatever you chose to do—from private prayer to public action—it will impact ONLY if you are following the guidance of the Heavens, not the guidance of the human ego. The ego will lead you in a direction that will NOT benefit—the way of anger, hate, righteousness, and division. This is a law and cannot be changed.

Follow the path of your Soul, Spirit, Heart, Higher Self, God. This path will benefit you and all. This is the path of love and peace. The Angels will guide you.

Guidance From Yusef: Hearing Heaven’s Helpers

Barbara: I have been “hearing” the voice(s) of what I call God’s Helpers—Angels and Spirits—for many years. After my initial skepticism and doubt I finally accepted and trusted in faith that the messages I was hearing were not from me, but from God.

I would encourage you also to open to your Helpers. They are there for you and are speaking to you constantly—guiding, encouraging, and supporting your efforts to follow your Path to God. What an incredible blessing and gift!!

YUSEF:

There are many in the Heavens who wish to speak. Their voices are yet unheard (by humans). There is no “trick” to hearing. Only open to the possibility that there are others—you call them Spirits or Angels—who are present to you ALWAYS! 

It does require a belief, a trust. Some call that faith.

We exist in the Heavens yet are also present to the Earth. There is no VEIL for us. It would however, require a great deal of energy for us to be present to the human seeing. Thus we do not show ourselves in the physical world except in extraordinary circumstances.

You may see us with your intuition/imagination—your faith that God has sent us to you. Your Spirit/Soul knows us. It is your intuition which allows the human and Soul to come together to sense our presence, to “see” us with your mind’s eye. 

The ones most present on the Earth you call Angels. Greet them as you would a friend, and call on them to help you. They are but some of the many [of us] eager to be of assistance to you on your Earth journey. 

 

 

Guidance From Yusef: Seeing What IS

Moving from the frequency of FEAR–Suggestion #2

See what IS, as it is–without the judgments of

  • right and wrong,
  • good and bad,
  • appropriate and inappropriate,
  • scary and safe,…all those filters we were given at an early age.

It is common to go about each day doing what we have been taught–looking, evaluating, labeling, and judging rather than simply seeing.

Science teaches that for every act of measurement (or judgment) of a thing, FAR more of the thing is lost than captured.

As we make–quite unconsciously–judgment after judgment, apply label after label, measuring all through the filters of our long held bias and prejudice, we are in essence squinting our eyes to see only that which sifts through the filters.

How much is lost in the squinting, the filtering, the labeling, the judging?

To be able to SEE WHAT IS requires, at first, a disciplined training to LET GO of the judging. To shut down the filters. To retrain the mind to allow only the EXPERIENCE of the thing without the judging of it. To become vulnerable in the naked seeing of what IS, without fear, without the thinking that we thought was helping us to see rightly.

And then a stark realization–

IT ALL IS AS IT IS. And there is absolutely nothing we can do about WHAT IS. It just IS. We cannot change it–it IS. We cannot manipulate it–it IS. There is no need to FEAR it–only to accept that it IS. That SEEING allows us to chose actions that come from a much higher frequency.

The freedom of that SEEING opens the floodgates…

  • To action when necessary, but also,
  • to appreciation
  • to beauty
  • to simplicity
  • to child like observations
  • to compassion
  • to experiencing
  • to bliss…
  • to God.
