A Message from Archangel Gabriel for These Times

Just when did you THINK you would need FAITH

Dear Ones,
You are fish swimming in an Ocean of the Divine Presence of all that is, was and ever shall be; yet you are feeling alone and powerless. Recognize that you are not without power at this time. Know that it is up to you to direct this energy where it needs to go to sustain you and fulfill your needs. This energy permeates all of the Universes. It is the Universal Presence. It just is. It exists as pure impulse, awaiting your direction.

You can personalize this energy, as people have done throughout the ages, as a vengeful God, or the old man looking down from the clouds judging all before they enter the "pearly gates." You can also sense this energy as love and benevolent. It is still you who direct this energy for the creation of that which you desire. Whatever is the focus of your attention impulses this energy to go into that area, thus magnifying it. This is basic physics. Imagine what those dire predictions circulating in the mass consciousness are doing to this energy as they spark the fears you have about your unknown future. You don't see the future so you fear it because it is unknown. It is not as if you ever really did know what your future would bring, and now you are filling your future with the energies of your worst-case scenarios. What possible good can that have in your life?

It takes great discipline to turn your thoughts away from the fearful tales on your TV news and the consensus of the general population. The economic systems seem so complex and confusing. It is hard to understand numbers in the trillions of dollars that are beyond normal comprehension. Add to that the predictions about the earth and the loss of habitat for animals and other species, which may also include humans. Fearing loss of energy, there is mass confusion about how life as you know it, with cars and electricity, can be sustained. This fear of loss of energy is taken literally by the body as each person begins to feel more and more powerless. Is this a resourceful state that can assist each person to create a happy life? Absolutely not.

Here you are swimming in an Ocean of Unlimited Abundant Energy and your greatest fear has become lack of energy. Maybe you don't know how to tap this massive energy source so you can use it in your daily life to fill your energy requirements, and you are not aware of new alternatives, so that makes you afraid. You worry because you don't know how to do it. Consider that how you solve this massive energy challenge facing the world right now may be none of your business. How this global challenge is solved is not a question that helps you stimulate the mental state of balance and harmony that provides for your own energy sustainability.

There are those that do know how, and many more that have studied the way to create sustainable energy for years. There are also those who are accepting the challenge of HOW to spark new exploration and inspired ideas. What is that old phrase -- "Necessity is the mother of invention?" As long as there have been people on this planet they have been solving problems to meet every need. You know this. You can trust the truth of this statement. This is the exact situation facing the world at this time, and those who have already been inspired to the ways of solving these challenges have been ready for years for just this time. The focus of attention is now directed toward solving the challenges of the world, such as sustainability and economics. With this focus of attention, the creative solutions will be revealed. You can trust this. The answers to the challenges are already flowing to those who most need to put them into action. This is the way of energy in the Universe.

And what can you do to most be of service to the solving of your own, as well as the global situations? How does one individual also access this vast universal energy that holds the power of creative solutions to every challenge facing you? Simply put, just when did you think you would need FAITH?

It's easier to have faith when you think your life is going well. Most often people tend to think their lives will continue just the way it has been. When things change, there is a scramble within the mind to adjust to it, and gain a footing. However, stability is not a universal attribute of the energy in which you live, move and have your being. In fact, this energy is constantly moving, flowing and changing. In that you can also have Faith. Your focus of attention is what will attract that very energy to you, as the Law of Attraction states and so many have spoken recently. In this immutable law, you can also have Faith.

So as a grand experiment, you can trust that there are inventive minds working on the challenges apparent in your world, and you can bless their efforts. There is no help in worrying they won't find the answers in time. It is much more useful to your peace of mind if you imagine there are legions of angels and great masters of technology at work to manifest a miracle. There is not any more truth in the "doomsday scenarios" than there is in the previous statement. Truth is all in your perception. So in the meantime, while all these great beings are working for the planet, and you can have faith that they are, focus on yourself and begin to find ways that you can have sustainable energy in your being.

As you are a part of this greater presence of energy, what you do for your own being will affect all others. There is no separation between your inner being and the state of being in the world around you. On that you can have Faith. Knowing that you are a part of an unlimited energy source, you can use this power to bring yourself what you most need. Consider what you think you need and look at the essence behind it. Most of all, the world will benefit when people can quiet their tumultuous thoughts and fears. In this you can have Faith.

It would be extremely practical then to focus on ways that you can do this. If the TV is causing you fear, turn it off for a while. You will not miss any momentous events if you give yourself a short break. You can have faith that somebody will let you know if something big is happening that you need to pay attention to.

Give yourself a fast from negative thoughts. Try substituting a phrase of positivity whenever you notice yourself going into fear and anxiety. You may consider this phrase: There is a Creative Solution to all challenges — large or small! You can have Faith that the grace of Divine Energy is present in this statement and your attention makes it so.

If you feel anxious, notice your breathing. Shallow breathing can cause the body to contract in fear that it will not receive enough oxygen to live. This causes the mind to feel anxious. Taking ten slow deep breaths will miraculously help you feel calmer. On this you can have Faith.

The scientist Einstein said, "All matter is energy. Energy is Light. We are all Light Beings." Using this awareness from one of the great minds of science, imagine Light filling your body with every breath. Imagine being connected to a beautiful bridge of Golden Light reaching from heaven to earth. If you give yourself even five minutes to sit and breathe in life-giving oxygen, imagining you are sitting in a pillar of Divine Light, you will come back from this period of time nourished from the deepest sources of your being. On this you can have Faith.

You are expressing that in which you have faith in every thought, word and deed. It is more resourceful for you to choose to have faith in the greater activity of the Universal Power that exists within and around you in every moment. Within this Light filled energy exists the greatest love you have ever known. Fill yourself with the Power of Divine Love and you will expand beyond all the small fearful ways you have been limiting yourself. On this you can have Faith.

And so it is.

THE INTEGRATIVE FORCE FOR HEALING

A Message from Archangel Gabriel for These Times

Dear Ones,

The seasons are turning and it appears all creation has accelerated. Maybe time feels like it is roaring through your life like a tornado, and a small voice inside you is asking for the world to stop whirling so you can get off. Could this be the voice of your inner self begging for stillness, peace and a space within your being to feel safe, even for a moment?

These feelings are normal when one considers the energies now pervading the planetary grids. It is like putting high-octane fuel into the tanks that power your being. The task at hand is to learn how to integrate these powerful forces of energy through your nervous system. This task will require your focus of attention whenever you begin to feel "over-amped," when you are moving faster than the situation requires and are feeling overwhelmed. The famous "time out" given to children when they act out is appropriate also for that place in you needing to feel safe and nurtured in tumultuous times. This will help you to acclimate to the higher frequencies and use them as opportunities to employ this accelerated energy to empower your life, and bring greater peace to the earth.

Small spaces of time for you to be in silence, breathing more deeply, and remembering that you are spiritual being living in a material world have great benefit. These times allow the greater truth of your experience to be apparent, and help you to attune to what can be called the Integrative Force. This powerful energy is a Divine attribute available now and calling you forward so you can learn to use these profoundly creative energies to enrich your life. As when a wise master commanded his famous student to "use the Force," it is now your time to follow those instructions. Divine Light can illuminate, guide and integrate the higher frequencies within the body. You can invite the Masters and Angels who work with this Light to assist the process, so you can use the Integrative Force to find your pathway through this time. This will enable you to find equanimity within and use your God-given talents and gifts in a new way.

As the planetary evolution continues, the vibrational frequencies will also increase. Divine Love and access to higher consciousness is more available than ever before. However, when accelerated energy frequencies strike an unbalanced emotional state, the imbalance will also become magnified. All that is out of harmony with the flow of Divine Love will surface, and this means that the energies of hatred and fear will be more apparent. At this time, the polarities seem enhanced and extremes of energy are becoming more "normal." There is no point in resisting the facticity of the influx of increased energy. The times in which you live are offering a powerful lesson in learning balance and equanimity.

Each time there is upheaval and disaster on the earth's surface, it is also a reflection of the interior focus within each person. You can see the direct correlation of this truth in your world as the different beliefs erupt into conflict. The fear surfacing within many people is rampant. It is as if the imagination has been taken hostage and sent on a wild ride to worst-case scenarios of doom and destruction. The imagination can be one of your most valuable keys during these often confusing times. When your mind goes into the fearful "what if" tangents whipped by the ravings of biased news reports, mass fears and negative based facts and figures, it is creating your future scenarios. The energy frequencies will flow into the channels where your attention is focused. On the other hand, your imagination can also use this same energy and devote time to creating powerful, positive and joyous "what if" scenarios sending peaceful vibrations into the world to soothe the frayed nerves of the planetary being, while creating a happier future for you. It has been proven scientifically that love and positive thoughts can change the molecules in water. As the human body is made up mostly of water, these loving thoughts will change the structures that make up the brain and the rest of the physical being. Many books have been written that prove scientifically this truth and it cannot be overstated.

There are no obvious solutions to the world as it appears in the scenarios of the fearful mind. Many situations exist where there is little outward action you can take to bring improvement and positive change, which can feel very frustrating. However, what is clear is the need to find more constructive uses for this energy of frustration because it shuts down possibilities. Take time to breathe deeply, ask for Divine assistance, and learn to integrate these accelerated frequencies, so your personal energy field vibrates with a more radiant energy. This is the way positive change can occur organically, with each person finding a place of balance within themselves. One person in harmony with the Integrative Force of Divine energy can become a magnetic power for healing and love in the world.

Common sense is your friend as you navigate this journey of integration and healing. Exercise and nutrition are both more important than ever before. Finding ways to soothe the nervous system and strengthen the adrenals is paramount. These energies are so strong, they can cause destruction in their wake when not channeled properly in your body. Many of the ancient systems of healing from the East, such as Hatha Yoga and Chi Kung are based on the use of energy to bring balance and health. These systems empower and balance the body, mind and emotional state, connecting the inner spirit, and so using the whole being as the path for healing. Exploring new ways to use your physical body through these tried and true methods could bring great benefit now and help to calm the body's systems that are most vulnerable during these accelerated energy periods.

Healing is a journey. You learn by your actions including by making mistakes. It is more important than ever to honor yourself and your choices while forgiving the mistakes of the past. Each person has a very important role to play in the healing and evolution of the planet Earth. As you put your imagination to work creating joyous scenarios of peaceful coexistence and a thriving environment, include a sense of wellbeing within every soul. These will manifest and your spirit will be nurtured.

Do not lose Faith! You are not alone in this journey. There are millions of people who want peace in their world. There are millions of people who believe in the power of Divine Love to bring healing into their lives. There are millions of people who know, with every fiber of their being, that a more harmonious world is possible when efforts are directed to make that happen, within the mind as well as in the material world.

The Angelic Dimensions and Masters of Light are working with souls who have agreed to be a force for good during these times. This Divine assistance is available for the asking. Use the Integrative Force of Healing for fulfillment of your soul's purpose. It can integrate the lessons you have received, your many life experiences, as well as your gifts and talents, so you will have a more fulfilling life. Adjust your thinking, adapt your lifestyle, and align with the beautiful accelerated energies that are blessing your planet now. It is your time to become a blended spiritual person by making these heightened frequencies an integral part of your being.

And so it is.

PLANTING THE GARDEN OF YOUR SOUL

A Message for Spring Renewal from Archangel Gabriel

Dear Ones,

Planting the Spring Garden of your Soul inspires the Grace of the Angels to work in your daily life. You will be making clear intentions for the requirements you need to be happy so you can harvest a more bountiful future. The northern latitudes are experiencing the season of Spring, of New Birth and Renewal. It is time to plant a personal garden within your being. This timely action will bring great rewards as you till the soil of your life, elevate your thoughts and enhance the beauty around you on many levels.

What do we mean when we suggest it is time to plant the Spring Garden of your Soul? It is really very simple. What are the qualities you most want to see manifest in your life? What are your goals and dreams for a joyous future? What needs have to be met so you can be happy? These are the seeds to plant within the garden of your being.

When you plant the seeds of growth and renewal, it can be a fun, creative and positive way to promote a joyous, abundant life. Consider those things you most want to have thriving in your interior garden. Maybe you would like to plant the tiny seeds that lead to Abundant Prosperity? Perhaps you want Harmony in all your relationships? What about planting the seeds for Health and Well Being deeply within your heart so they can grow with zest and vibrancy? The soil of joyous potential exists within you and awaits your attention.

These vast exalted ideas actually require very little time during your busy life, full of commitments and deadlines. In fact, the small amounts of time you give to planting and nurturing your interior garden will enhance every area of your life with a bounty of return. It is said that when a person takes one step towards God, it inspires God to take ten steps toward you. As you begin to remember that you are a part of all Creation, a new sense of gratitude wells up in your heart. This gratitude carries the sparks of Divine Light that uplift your spirit and become the catalyst for new growth within your life. As you look at the beautiful flowering of Nature around you, it can remind you that the same beautiful flowering is taking place within your very being.

Let your imagination soar as you bring forth those magical qualities in which you wish to live. Nothing is too large to dream when it allows the Divine to move though you bringing manifestation of a happier life. Feeling the joy of creating something fun by dreaming big will raise your vibrational frequency and when this occurs the energy field around you expands. Doors will open that you have not imagined possible. It is your open mind and a heart unencumbered by doubt and self-criticism that attracts new growth and evolution into your life. Planting the Spring Garden of your Soul inspires all the help you need to live life in a more joyful way and have your needs met with grace and ease.

Since every new project requires some thought and planning, when you begin your inner garden, make it creative and fun. It could be a beautiful work of art with lots of color, magazine pictures or a painting. The shape your interior garden takes could be a pattern that inspires you. You may even decide just to make a list of those qualities of consciousness you want to experience in your life. The action of writing will assist the energy of your garden. The Angels of Creativity are available to work with you in this project, and can inspire you so it will be fun. When your inner spirit is stimulated in this way, new life flows into your mind and heart, and you feel uplifted. This increased energy flow attracts more joy and you feel happier, which in turn, brings more creative ideas and a sense of wellbeing. It is the beginning of an upward spiral that blesses this garden within you with new empowered energy. Your life will begin to change in surprising ways.

When you see old patterns of thought and action manifesting, and you begin to feel stuck in problematic energies, consider them to be compost for your new garden. Ask the Angels working in your life to help you pull these weeds and transmute old ways of behavior with Divine Light. This will help feed the garden of your soul with loving energy. It is like adding a little water every day to help work the compost of old ways into the fertile soil of your garden. Soon you will see the new sprouts of a different way of being. Rejoice in this vibrant growth knowing that as you respond differently to old situations, you will receive fresh, positive results in every area of your life. By focusing a little bit every day on what you want to see manifest in your life, you provide a new structure so your interior garden will thrive.

The Spring Garden of your Soul has amazing potential to bring you the life you want to experience. Opening yourself to new thoughts and behaviors attracts assistance in ways you never knew existed. This beautiful garden thriving within you becomes a Beacon of Light. Many people will love to experience your garden and help it grow so it will feed more people. This new growth and thriving space within you reaches out to bless the world, and in turn you will be blessed. As your garden comes into fruition, you will find your life nourished in bountiful ways. The company of Heaven awaits you as you begin planting these seeds for your new life. Bask in the sunlight of Divine Illumination, breathe it in deeply and let it nurture the new growth within you. Know the Angels will joyously assist you in weeding out the old ways that no longer work so your garden will thrive with new life.

You are never alone. You are continuously blessed and are being guided as you open to a new way of being.

The fullness of your being will enrich your life's purpose, so your next steps become very clear. There is a flowering beginning all around you, and within your heart. Allow yourself to be loved and nourished as you plant the Spring Garden of your Soul. You are a precious being, worthy of all you aspire to receive. Know deep within your heart that all is well.

And so it is.

WHO IS ARCHANGEL GABRIEL AND WHY SHOULD YOU CARE?

   A Message from Archangel Gabriel for These Times

Have you ever considered inviting an Archangel into your living room? Me either.  But that is what happened back in 1988 when I was frustrated with the direction of my life and praying for my true work to manifest.  One day, without warning, while giving a massage at my home in Hawaii, I sensed a presence heralded by shimmering golden light and a feeling that the floor was shaking.  When I opened my eyes, there was a being standing at the end of my massage table with wings so grand, they seemed to extend beyond the roofline. Did I fall to my knees and thank God for the answer to my heartfelt prayers?  No, actually.  I was so intimidated by the power of this possible apparition, that I just continued the healing work that I was doing on my client and did my best to ignore him.  I heard a booming voice telling me that he was Archangel Michael, and this was even more strange. The actuality that an archangel would be appearing to me was beyond my capacity to compute intellectually, as well as spiritually.  I had been trained in a tradition that advised against taking visions too seriously.

Plus, I had no history, background, understanding nor even an interest in the angelic realms.  

These appearances continued for over a year when I was doing my healing massage work, with me noticing a large winged being, and pretending I didn't.  Although I continued to pray for my path in life, to invite an Archangel into my world was not my intention. In fact I was afraid I had finally gone around the mental bend in the road to the place my family had been sure I was going for years.  Yes, I was a wanderer on the path of higher consciousness, an explorer of spiritual belief systems, a metaphysical truth seeker, and what some called, a hippie.  Never mind that I was over 40 and still wondering what I was going to be when I grew up.  I just knew that I had a path to follow and work that needed a spiritual calling.  I just was not sure what form that was supposed to take, thus the prayerful calls to the Universe.  

Finally in 1990 while meditating in my living room, the now familiar golden light flooded the field behind my eyes, only this time my heart felt like it was melting into a pool of love.  The angel standing before me was nearly faceless the light was so bright, and once again, his wings grandly arched above the cathedral ceiling, but his eyes drew me to him in a new way.  I heard him say that he was Archangel Gabriel and that he had a message for me.  He proceeded to give me a series of exercises that would allow me to receive inspired messages from the Light-filled world of wisdom and compassion.  From that time, I began to follow the guidance, and receive messages filling journals and notebooks with beautiful material over the years.  The relationship I have enjoyed with this beloved being has brought me the absolute knowing that we are not alone in this world, and that our prayers are answered. It may look a little different than we imagined, but we have the help we need if we allow it to happen.

Which brings me to the point, with your complex world and busy life, with the numerous, seemingly insurmountable challenges, facing you individually as well as collectively, why complicate your life with archangels, right?  Why should you throw one more thing into the mix of challenges you see before you every day?  Well, because it just might really help, and most of us at this point, do not have much to lose.  I am just suggesting an experiment.   Try inviting Archangel Gabriel into your life to offer you some creative solutions to the situations facing you.       

I am not suggesting you worship angels instead of Jesus, nor am I asking you to give up anything that is really important to you.  This is not a new religion, or an organized practice that negates any of your beliefs in the Supreme Power. It is only an experiment to see if you might notice a change in perception, or create a new willingness to have more clarity and wisdom working in your life.  The archangels act as principles of consciousness, providing new ways to perceive situations before us, more love to grace our relationships, and a higher level of creativity to use in problem solving, as well as artistic endeavors.  People are asking for creative solutions to seemingly insurmountable problems right now, maybe angelic assistance would be useful.       

At other tremulous times in history, there have been historical accounts of visitations from Archangel Gabriel.  When the Israelites were facing death and bondage in Egypt, it was Archangel Gabriel that parted the Red Sea so they could find their way to freedom.  Archangel Gabriel presented Mohammed with a belief system that inspired his life and blessed millions of people.  When a young woman named Mary heard a whisper in the night, it was Archangel Gabriel telling her about the birth of the Christ Child from within her, so that millions of people could be inspired with Divine Love and Peace.       

Does it not seem as though the times we are living in are as confusing, traumatic, and dire as were these historic moments?  If you feel a bit overwhelmed and lost, it may be time to invite this same presence to bless you and open your way to freedom, inspiration and peace.     

Archangel Gabriel is a messenger from God, and a link to the communication of Truth, Harmony and Balance within all beings.  It is possible for each person to connect with these light-filled qualities in a way never before available.  This is an opportunity to find a new level of inspiration and guidance.  You may not have the same transmission of messages or visions in the way that I did.  It will be your own experience, inspired by the needs of your soul, and answering your prayers.       

The message that seems to be most prevailing in this offering from Archangel Gabriel is that you now have more access to a powerful presence of Love, Compassion and Wisdom.  All you have to do is ask, and then be willing to receive from the deepest resources of your being.  Perhaps calling on the Light of the Angelic Dimensions can assist the evolution of all beings and the planet as well.  It causes no harm to ask for this Light to bless you and your family.  It may even allow a deeper communion with the Angels to bless your world.
