Guidance From Yusef: Love Counters the Darkness

Posted on by

I have been so terribly SAD because of the actions of the terrorists in the world these days—just sad to the core. I can also feel the fear of my neighbors and friends. Yusef has said that the Earth is “darkening” but he tells us we must continue to love. This I know—love and fear cannot co-exist in the same moment. And it takes great courage to TRUST and have faith in a loving Divine presence with the reality of the violence in the world right now. But it is time for each of us to access that place of faith and trust and send out Love and Light to all those suffering on the Earth.

YUSEF:

We tell you now that the difficulties are worsening. The darkness of fear covers the Earth. Not just the fear that you are aware of—from those being threatened and killed by others—but also the fear of those fleeing their homeland and many others. 

You would like answers and direction for your actions. LOVE—where you are and the best you can. In that loving your Light will shine out. Do nothing to dim your Light. This is most important.

Take action if action calls you. But if the only action you can take is prayer, realize that this is a great gift—perhaps the most healing for the world. Let your prayer go out to all the suffering in the world, both the “terrorist” and those suffering at the hand of the terrorist. Especially offer prayer for those governing. They are in great need of such now.

Love. In every instance. Look for the opportunities in all you do, in each moment of your life. Send/offer each one love. Let love guide your thoughts, words, and actions. You do not realize its power.

We are with you.

 

Guidance From Yusef: Letting Go of Who I Think I Am

Posted on by

Yusef continues the topic of changing from a fear-filled person, to a free-from-fear person. Entering the metaphorical cocoon he tells us requires a willingness to be changed. It all happens naturally as we let go of who we THINK we are. We humans are concerned about our identity, our personality…who will we be on the other side of the cocoon? Will we lose our very selves? What will it be like to be free-from-fear? Such a foreign idea!

YUSEF:

We resume: It is all GIFT for which there is no cost. The only “cost” is ACCEPTANCE/willingness. Acceptance demands a LETTING GO of that which humans cling so tenaciously to—attachment to identity.

The concern is that the personality, that which humans THINK is who they are, will be lost in the letting go. And indeed this bears some truth, for there is a shift in the ‘metamorphosis’ that adjusts the focus.

Identification with personality is: This is ME: I am…white/black/brown. I am this ethnicity, have this occupation, look like this, and so on.

When that is all let go in order to experience the “new” that was in potential already there, the orientation shifts.

The world may see the same body and personality, but you will feel completely different in your relationship to it. It no longer defines you, or IS you. You are in essence not a “new creation”, but rather you now remember who you REALLY ARE, and all is available to you.

You can metaphorically “fly.” And the light shining from within you makes you quite beautiful to others.

Guidance from Yusef: It’s Time To Let Go of Fear

Posted on by

Happy Spring! This post and the next are exciting in their spirit of hope and the feeling of freedom from all the worries and concerns of life on this planet that bog us down. Yusuf is telling us it’s time to let go of fear. Well, that’s easier said than done. But the beautiful new spring growth on the Earth right now signals new beginnings and I think that is what the heavens want us to focus on now. We have all the help we need to begin to move away from fear and move toward the freedom of inner peace and happiness. Yay!

YUSEF:
The joy of the heavens is in stark contrast to the emanations coming from the Earth. This is unnecessary since the potential for joy on the Earth has never been greater.230766536_3adce9b68b_m

The scene is set to move past the influences of fear on the Earth—breaking free as a butterfly would break free of the boundary of the cocoon.

This must be the image put forth. It is time to be free of the constricting bonds of fear. The wonder of that freedom, though new and sometimes a struggle to acclimate to, connects you to the heavens.

Freedom from fear elevates, levitates the soul. More, it allows connection and communion with All That Is (God) in a new way.

Fear is of the Earth. Let go of fear to soar into the heavens while yet on the Earth.

Joy! Freedom!

Guidance From Yusef: Beauty and Joy Counter Darkness

Posted on by

YUSEF:

Such a beautiful Universe! Do not lose sight of the beauty. It is beauty, seen and appreciated, that will counter the darkness.

The darkness does gain in energy strength with your current obsession with fear on the earth. Rather look to nature, to the love that abounds there. As negative energies gain momentum and force it is especially important to find joy and beauty–each day, each moment when possible.

Make this a priority. Beauty. Joy. Gratitude. MOST important.

When the energy of FEAR takes hold within the human psyche it seeks to expand. Rather like a cancer it seeks to grow. Do not allow this. The “antidote” to this fear energy is joy, love, laughter, gratitude. In this energy all blossom and bloom. The heart is energized. This is the “sunshine” that allows expansion and growth on the earth. Fear, the opposite, stops growth, stops expansion. This is counter to Universal law.

EnJOY this day! Find opportunities to be in the beauty of nature and in the presence of joyful souls.

Guidance From Yusef: Forgiveness is Essential

Posted on by

YUSEF:

Forgiveness is essential, fundamental, and foundational.  No growth on the Earth occurs without the generosity of FORGIVENESS. images-9

Forgiveness is a cleansing that clears the Earth plane to reveal the Soul.  Only when you let go of that to which the human nature [ego] clings will you be able to see and know who you are.  This is remembering Home—letting go of that which is not of Home [Heaven].  

Live on the Earth as we live in Heaven. Judge no being and no interaction.  Learn from all; contribute to all. 

The Universe, or Heaven, is different.  Imagine a state where LOVE is abundant to overflowing, not the emotional love [of humankind] that is connected to the body.  Imagine a love so generous that forgiveness is not necessary.  In the Oneness there is no need for forgiveness.  Only in the illusion that you are separate [from God and from each other] is forgiveness necessary. 

Ultimately, perhaps the most important action we can take is to first forgive our own perceived mistakes and imperfections. That frees us to be able to forgive others. Forgiveness is a gift we give to ourselves.

Guidance From Yusef: Fear Nothing

Posted on by

YUSEF:

It is so simple.  Fear is attached to ego.  Get past ego and you will be free. images-8

Ego struggles to maintain a hold on power.  It comes from the beginning of time.  Therein lie the issue and the problem.  When seeking to move closer to God there is no other path.  Rising above the world’s hold on the Spirit/Soul can be a blink in time.  It is attainable.  Move toward this.  Help others to attain it.

Imagine no fear—only joy—only love. Do not be concerned regarding events of the future.  The ‘future’ takes care of itself.  The future comes out of/is dependent upon the PRESENT.  NOW is the important time.  Move through the NOW’s and worry not.  Fear nothing. 

The Blessing of God is upon all.  Judge no being and no interaction.  Learn from all; contribute to all.  Be strong in the assurance we offer.  Fear nothing.

 

 

 

Guidance From Yusef: Fear is Not Real

Posted on by

YUSEF:

Fear has no basis in reality either in this world or the next.  Fear is not of God.  Therefore, when you react to a given occurrence, something actually transpiring, with a response that is based on fear, you have moved from reality to fantasy and are then living in a ‘world’ of your own making, within your own mind—not actually existing in reality.  This of course SEEMS real to you, however, it is NOT REAL.

This reaction/response acts to cut you off from the reality that is God/Source.  The consequences of that are far-reaching and serve no one.

FEAR NOTHING.

FIND GOD/LOVE IN ALL.

The Fear that Yusef refers to in the Guidance is not the instinctive fear we experience when we are in physical danger, such as a when a speeding car is coming right at us.  The fear Yusef warns against is different from these.  It comes from our ego.

Ego fear tells you that the world is not a safe place.

Ego Fear lives in the past–dredging up all kinds of offenses you have suffered, and wants you to wallow in them–telling yourself the same stories about them over and over.  Or it lives in the future–worrying about what might be coming that will unsettle your world.

So, Fear looks like:  anxiety, worry, frustration, apprehension, suspicion, nervousness, depression, dread, terror, panic, despair, phobias, etc.

There is no judgment around any of these fears.  We can all identify with many of them. Yusef merely wants us to realize that they come from our egos and do not serve us. They are not REAL, though they seem very real to us. AWARENESS that they are not real is the first step to letting them go.

 

Guidance From Yusef: Making the leap from FEAR to PEACE

Posted on by

images-1It is vitally important in our world today that we begin to let go of all the ways that fear grips us.  Yusef tells us that it might feel like jumping into the unknown, leaving the place we have grown comfortable with, but that jump into the safety net of peace is well worth attempting. We only need the faith of a small child–that the Father who loves us will keep us safe.

YUSEF:

Fear is insidious, infecting and affecting the entire being.  It causes emotional and physical reaction. The realization of the fearful state is the first step toward release of that fear.

Fear need not be “driven out”.  It does not have that kind of power.  Fear is a symptom that indicates or covers an unwell state.  It can simply be released and it will be gone.  Many hold on to fear, possibly because they have not known the alternative—PEACE.

Releasing fear is like jumping over a chasm or from a building with all the safety precautions in place, and the chance of injury is nil.  But the land or the building are known and there is some comfort in that knowing, however uncomfortable the place.

Faith is the key to the release of fear—faith that the Father loves you enough to keep you safe.

 

 

 

 

Guidance from Yusef: On Fear

Posted on by

For such a human emotion, and one that we are well acquainted with in our daily lives,  fear packs a mighty punch according to Yusef. This is the first of a series of posts on fear.

YUSEF:

Fear is the great evil in the world.  It is a sham, an illusion, unnecessary, and counter to love.  Fear is the block to Knowing and Love from the All, [and] from connection to Universal truth and abundant life. 

Peace and fear cannot coexist. Peace, real peace heals.  It heals all.  Its root is Love.  It is the fruit of Love.  It comes from Love, is the evidence of Love, and produces peace.

The world thirsts and hungers to know real Peace.  Peace is growth producing.  Fear limits, holds back, stops growth.  It is an evil concept that must be reversed for the world to gain peace.

People fear even the word FEAR because they have embraced it as natural.  We do not speak here of the natural physical reaction when the senses encounter danger to the body.

We are referring to the fear that grips the mind, spirit and consciousness, as well as subconscious. The Soul does not fear.

Fear is the emotion of the EGO, that which prevents you from knowing your true self.
