sent me Christmas cards and gifts. I would have thanked you personally if you had sent your email address as there were

with your wonderful personal messages of how you look forward to my emails daily. I look forward to another year

Today's Angel Message
==================== Dear Ones. It is a glorious day. We wish you
to share in the joy of living. Have you noticed how children’s laughter bubbles up and seems to engulf them? One has
to try very hard not to laugh when around a child’s laughter. It is infectious and carefree. It is uninhibited and full
of life. Their eyes twinkle, their smiles beam, and their faces glow. They experience fully their joy. As an adult, you are
partially thinking about something else, even in the midst of joy. As you learn how to be totally in the now moment of joy,
you will begin to see your face glow, your eyes twinkle, and laughter engulf your totality. Share the laughter and the joy
and you will be blessed. Now go take on the day and bless your hearts.

guides - and you get Cindy Shelton. Her ability to get right to the essence of you and your problems is awesome. She's one
of a kind!" * www.cynthialeeshelton.com/ *

==========================================
Greetings, Beloved Family! On this day of anticipation, we invite you to feel the stillness of Peace in the air, for that is what this time in your Earth days is most anticipated for. It matters not what, if any, religion you subscribe to. It matters not whether this Eve is the actual date of that Eve when the anticipation began. What does matter is the significance of the symbolism found in the story, for this is the Eve for that Peace that passeth all understanding to make itself known to you. It is to shout so loudly within you as to quiet all your fears, your doubts, your limitations. It is to literally envelop you in its loving stillness wherein you find your Truth, your Empowerment, your Divinity. Rejoice, Beloved Ones, on this most significant and sacred Eve, and welcome the birth of the new day tomorrow! There shall never be another like it, for the sunshine energies are here to dispel the darkness in the soul of all humankind. This Holy Mission is fully manifested in the re-birthing of the Lovelight upon Planet Earth, as represented by the celebration of the birth of that Child of Light in Bethlehem. And, remember that we are all Children of the Light, every one of us, whether we occupy a human or other kind of body, or are in our Lightbody form. For we are all the perfect creations of Mother/Father God, and as such, we have the divine Light of Love within us. We know that sometimes that Light has felt so dim as to seem to be lost or forgotten, but it has been there all the time, even when you could not find it within or in the air around you. Yes, it was there, for you Beloved Ones, have been there, and your presence has made a difference to the World - never more so that now, at this moment! So let us hold hands and sing the songs of the coming of the Light, knowing in our Hearts that Love is infinite, eternal and permanently anchored on Earth. Thank you, Beloved Ones, for being with us and for sharing your Gifts, your Grace and your Love, for you truly shine bright upon the World. It is your sharing of your radiance which empowers the energies of Change. It is You, Beloved Family, who are the true Gifts to the World, for it is You who are lighting up the way out of the darkness and into the Lovelight of the Golden Age! Salut and Namaste!

My Dear Friends...
I know I don't need to tell you that a week from
today is Christmas Eve---a very happy time of year for so many people. And yet, for many others, who have suffered deep loss
or who are facing very large challenges during these says, the Holiday Season can be a very difficult time...and understandably
so. For some people, everything that was important to them has been taken away...
For all of us there comes a time when all that's
left is God...
It happens in most people's lives more than once.
It is that moment when you feel totally and completely isolated. It's that time when you feel, not that no one is hearing
you, but that there is no one to hear you. You are really all alone. There is no one else, even when there is someone else
in the room. There is nothing more, even when there is plenty more all around. There is only you, even when the world surrounds
you. Perhaps especially when the world surrounds you, there is only you.
Yes, there comes a time when all that's left
is God. Nothing else matters. Nothing else has any meaning. Nothing else calls to you, magnetizes you, demands your attention---or
is even worthy of it.
This time comes, it seems to me, either when
you have nothing or when you have everything. This moment arrives when everything else has been taken from you and there is
nothing left, or when everything has been given to you and there is nothing more you could possibly want.
When this moment arrives, it is a great relief.
It is a release, a letting go. And yet, for many of us, there is still a tiny part of our being that yearns for the single
thing that so many of us have never had: complete acceptance and unconditional love.
Somebody love me just the way I am.
We have not been able to find that in another.
We thought we could find it in another, we hoped that we could find it in another, but we cannot. We cannot even find it in
ourselves. And because we cannot find it in ourselves, we cannot give it to another-and that is why we cannot find it there.
For we cannot find anywhere what we have not placed anywhere, and we have not placed complete acceptance and unconditional
love anywhere. We cannot even be okay with the weather, for goodness sake. We can find something to complain about around
everything.
And so, we seek what is not there, for everything
we seek to find in life must have been placed there by us. If we have not placed it, we cannot find it. What we do not place
into life, we do not find, because we are the Only Source There Is.
If we cannot find forgiveness in our lives, it
is because we have not placed it there. If we cannot find compassion in our lives, it is because we have not placed it there.
If we cannot find tolerance in our lives, it is because we have not placed it there. If we cannot find mercy in our lives,
it is because we have not placed it there. If we cannot find peace in our lives, it is because we have not placed it there.
If we cannot find acceptance in our lives, it is because we have not placed it there. And if we cannot find love in our lives,
it is because we have not placed it there.
All these things we must place into Life. First,
into our own life, then into the life of another. Or, for some, it is the other way around. I want to say for most of us it
is the other way around. For most of us, it is nearly impossible to give ourselves what we most want to receive: forgiveness,
compassion, tolerance, mercy, peace, acceptance, and love.
Most of us cannot give these things to ourselves
because we know too much about ourselves. We think ourselves to be unworthy of these things. We imagine ourselves to be something
other than what we really are. We cannot see the Divinity that Divinity Itself has placed in us. We cannot see the Innocence.
We cannot see the Perfection in our imperfection.
Because we cannot see these things in ourselves,
we cannot give ourselves what we most want to receive. Yet, because we are not totally blind to what is good and worthy in
the world, we are often able to see these things in others. We can often see Divinity in others. We can often see Innocence
in others. We can often even see Perfection in the imperfection of others. And so we can give others forgiveness, compassion,
tolerance, mercy, peace, acceptance, and love. We can, but the question is, will we?
Too often, we do not. Because of our own wounds,
we cannot heal the wounds of others. And so we deny our world the things our world needs the most. We deny our world forgiveness,
compassion, tolerance, mercy, peace, acceptance, and love. And when we deny these to our world, we deny these to ourselves---for
what we have not placed into the world, we cannot receive from the world.
Again, let the New Golden Rule be repeated:
What we have not placed into the world, we cannot receive from the world. There comes a time when we realize that we are the Only Source There Is. No one is going to give to us or to the world what we are unable to get to the world, and thus to ourselves. Not for very long. The first place we find this out is in relationship
with another. What we are unable or unwilling to give to another, we will not receive from the other. Not for very long. If
we cannot give the person across the room forgiveness, compassion, tolerance, mercy, peace, acceptance, and love... we cannot
look to the person across the room to give these things to us. For they only have to give what we have given them.
We imagine in relationship that the other person
has what we do not have, and therefore, that they can supply it to us. This is the great illusion. This is a great mistake.
This is the great misunderstanding. And this is the reason why so many relationships fail. We imagine that the other is going
to supply us with forgiveness, compassion, tolerance, mercy, peace, acceptance, and love. We imagine that the other is going
to supply us what we cannot supply to them, and what we cannot even give to ourselves. And then we become angry with the other.
And then we become angry with ourselves. And then. . . we realize that there's nothing left but God. We turn, then, to God.
Please God, give me forgiveness, compassion, tolerance, mercy, peace, acceptance, and love. Please give it to me, so that
I may give it to others.
The world is rapidly approaching this turning
point. We are coming to understand that God is the Only and Original Source. Now all that we need to do is understand, as
well, that there is no separation between God and us. When we grasp at last this foundational understanding, when we embrace,
finally, this basic truth, we will change ourselves, change our relationships, and change the world.
Until then, we will not. And we will wait for
that moment when we realize....that there's nothing left but God. Hopefully, we will arrive at that moment before we create
it...in the most crude of ways possible: by destroying everything else until there is nothing left. By destroying our relationship
until there is nothing left. By destroying our world until there is nothing left. By destroying ourselves until there is nothing
left.
Conversations with God contains a startling statement.
It is something I've never forgotten. God said, "It is not necessary to go through hell in order to get to heaven." I invite
us all to remember that on this day. I invite us all to embrace a new notion about ourselves and about life: not that there's
nothing left but God, but that there's nothing but God.
When we see God in every other person and in
every other thing, then we will have dropped our illusions, we will have stepped aside from our childish imaginings, and we
will treat everything and everyone as if it, she, or he is Divine. And if you don't think that will change your life and your
world, think again. This is the Pathway to the Soul.
Love and Hugs,

====================
My Dear Friends...
I couldn't sleep last night.
I was up from 2 until 6, having another one of
my Conversations with God.
"Tell me about Christmas," I said. "What is it
really all about?"
And I heard, "What do you mean, what is it really
all about? I've told you a million times what it's all about."
So I said, "Tell me again. I think I may have
missed it."
And suddenly my head was filled with a Christmas
Carol - one of the happiest and most triumphant of all the melodies of Christmas.
"Joy to the world," the song began, "the Lord
has come."
But I couldn't get into it. I kept wondering,
what is joyful about the coming of someone who is going to be a lord over us?
God! I said...I don't understand this!
And God replied, "You're right. You don't."
Then God said, "But at least you're asking a
question. And that's good. It's really hard to understand something if you think there are no more questions to ask. You can't
be given an answer if you think you already have the only answer there is."
"Well, I don't have the answer," I admitted.
"So what's the answer?"
And God said, "The answer is that the Lord....who
has come....is not a lord over you, but in you."
These words came to me at 2:57 this morning,
and I pondered them in my heart.
"Then," I ventured, "the Christmas season is
not just a remembering of the birth of a Babe. This is also a celebration of the birth of the Christed one in all of us."
And God answered softly, "yes."
And then I wondered what all the songs, and all
the messages, and all the feelings of Christmas would mean if I accepted this truth. If I really understood that the message
of this season is not about one blesséd being, but about all beings, being blesséd.
Not about someone else, but about us.
About me.
But oh, my gosh, did that sound bad. I mean,
it actually sounded like blasphemy. How could Christmas be about me?
Of all the self-centered, ego-maniacal thoughts!
This is about the coming of the Lord! This is
about the Gift of the Magi!
But, my heart insisted, what if the gift was
me? And what if the Lord HAS come to be in me, not over me?
I know that I can find a place for him over me,
but can I find a place for him within me?
And what would it mean for me to do that? What
would it mean for me to be not only a person who has been blessed, but a person who is blesséd? And for me to think of you
in the same way? What if I saw you as blesséd? Would I act differently toward you?
I'd like to think I would. I'd like to think
that I would be more kind to you. More gentle with my words, more caring with my actions, more compassionate in my thoughts,
more honest in my dealings, more patient and generous and...and more aware of the wonder of you.
And if I thought that I was a blessed person,
would I act differently toward me?
I think I would. I think I'd be more kind to
myself. More gentle with my words, more caring with my actions. I think I'd be more compassionate with myself, more patient
and generous and...and more aware of the wonder of ME.
But is it possible that we are all blessed?
This I asked in the middle of the night, and
the answer came back, stunningly, simply: "Yes."
SOOO, I mused... this is the meaning of Christmas.
That... that which is Christed is born in all of us. Lives in all of us. IS all of us. We simply do not remember this. And
so, Christmas was created to remind us.
Christmas, it turns out, is not about a particular
religion, but about all religions. It is not about a particular person, but about all persons.
It does not matter tonight whether you are Christian
or Muslim, Hindu or Jew, Baptist or Buddhist.
Or none of the above.
When you give birth to the lord within
you, you give life to a wonder and a majesty and a wisdom and a love that can flow from you to all the world, and change the
world forever.
Isn't this the Christmas Story?
And when we live this story as our story, are
our lives not renewed, our separated selves made whole?
Indeed.
Our souls are stirred, our hearts are filled.
And then it is we who bring...joy to the world.
The gift of Christmas is us, fully expressed
and fully realized. It is us -- completely willing and totally ready -- to love without condition, to give without restriction,
to share without limitation, to create without fear, to celebrate ourselves without shame or embarrassment.
It is us, choosing to forgive without hesitation,
to help without being asked, to rush in where angels fear to tread. Indeed, to lead the way for angels.
Ah, to lead the way for angels. That's why we're
here. That's why we've come to the Earth. To be a herald!
Hark! The herald, angels sing. Glory to the newborn
king.
At this moment we can give birth to the royalty
within us...the royalty that we are in God's eyes.
You know, someone once said...if you saw
you as God sees you, you would smile a lot.
Well, this moment, this Christmas Moment, is
a time for smiles. For in this moment, if we really try, we can almost see ourselves as God see us. We can feel it.
You can feel it right now, in your heart.
That feeling is called love.
Your love for life, and all those you love in
this life. And God's love for you.
The Magic of Christmas is that it gives us permission
to take that feeling, to take that love, and share it with all those whose lives we touch.
With friend, and with stranger.
With those who agree with us, and with those
who disagree.
With those who look and act like us, and with
those who do not.
We are invited in this moment to feel this love,
and to give it permanent place within our heart. To be the source of peace on Earth, and goodwill toward men and women everywhere.
We are invited in this moment to walk the Earth
not only as one who is BLESSED, but as one who is blesséd. Not only as the Lord of the manner, but in the manner of the
Lord.
For that is what we are. We are the lord of our
inner kingdom, and thus, of the outer one as well. And when we understand that, everything changes. We begin to experience
the world, and to affect the world, in a new way.
That is the Christmas invitation.
We are invited to begin that experience in this moment.
On this....silent night.
And if we do, we will make it a holy night. And
we will begin to create a world in which all is calm. All is bright.
Joy to the world! The Lord has come. Let Earth
receive her King. Let every heart...prepare him room.
And heaven, and nature, sing!
Merry Christmas, everyone. Love and Hugs,

Bells Are Ringing
December 25, 2010
=================
God said:
Bells are ringing. Peals of love are ringing.
At this celebration of love, bells are ringing in hearts. Christmas Day is a celebration of love. It is a Christ day. It is
a Buddha day. It is a Moses day. It is a Mohammed day. It is all the days of celebration by whatever name they are given.
One holiday is for all. Whatever the holiday’s name, it is for all.
What did all the Great Ones teach? They taught
the peace of love as it stirs in every heart. Christmas Day is a deeper more brilliant Valentine’s Day. Call it what
you will.
Let every day in every country round the world
be a celebration of love. Love is true victory. The heralding of love is true victory. Hail to the King of Love whoever and
wherever he may be. Love is the kingdom for all. Love has no borders, beloveds. Nor should you. Release all those borders
braced in your mind. They do not honor you. Borders do not. Boundaries do not. Limitation does not.
The Great Ones lifted shackles from the world.
In a nutshell, this is what they did. They unbounded the bound. They released the world from its heretofore bonds. Man was
to be free to love, as you are free to love. No more are in the name of protection are borders that limit and delimit citizens
of the world to be instituted. This is My world, and it is your world. No one is to fence it in. The world is not property
to be corralled. The world is to be an open state of love. No one is to be tethered. No one is to be told: “Here, but
not there.”
This is My land, and I proclaimed it for all.
Be a citizen of love, and open the doors of your heart and of the world.
You are here in the world to love. You are not
to imprison anyone, certainly not your own heart. Do not be trained to be callous of human rights, not your own, not others’.
You were born the same as any man, and you have the same rights as any man.
Today, proclaim your right to love. Regardless
of what others do, you have the inalienable right to love. Even if you are in a dungeon, you have the right to love. You have
the right to be who you are, and that means the right to love. No one can take that right away from you. You are the only
one who can take that right away from you. It is natural for you to love, and, under all circumstances, your call is to love.
The Holy Christ did that his lifelong. Where
he saw children, he loved. Where he saw animals, he loved. Where he saw unkindness, he loved. When he saw the lack of mercy,
he loved. Wherever he walked, he loved. He was a man of love, and so shall you be.
Christ and all the other Great Ones were not
fools to love. Not to love would have been foolish. Not to love would have been to deny their Godhood. They upheld their Godhood.
They were men who loved as I do love. They did not disdain those whose vision was less than theirs. Nor must you disdain those
less fortunate in love than you. Keep your heart free to love. Because another imprisons his heart does not mean that you
are to do the same. Free your heart, and other hearts will be so freed.
The Great Ones’ love continues. It never
stopped. Their love is entering your heart now. Let it in. Let it stay. Be ever grateful that you are one who can love, for
that is what you are called on to do. Every man is called on to love. I call on you to love whatever day it is. Be love.
