Default Re: Spiritual confusion...

Sometimes you can't see the woods for the trees

It is a question most people get hit with and there is no easy answer. This is a channeling from Archangel Raziel, maybe it can help, The Keys To Life.





What Is The Key To Life?


"Love is the Key to life for there is no door Love cannot open.

If you deny God you deny your very self. There are those who fear the word God and turn away as in many of your new religions and beliefs – they turn away from the expression of the word God, this is a response based on fear – fear being the opposite of Love, how can you understand the Devine expression of Love if you fear it?

Real Love is the Divine expression of All, it is all things, it is in everyone. There is Love, there is fear, fear is the absence of Love.

There is Light and there is Darkness, Darkness is the absence of Light. There are those who choose Light yet live in fear, how can that be?

You must learn to differentiate and understand the concept of Light, the concept of Love and they joining of the two because the two are in fact one, you can live in Light and fear, this is a failure to understand Divine nature. You can live in Love and Darkness – this is the same thing, both will block your path, it is only when you understand the nature of the Devine, the nature of God can you truly understand who you are and why you are here.

But love can be such a struggle for many of you and that is because you do not understand it. For many, Love brings pain, pain from relationships that for whatever reason failed, failed because an expectation was not met. Love, real Love has no expectations, let me explain.

Like I said before, Love is the Devine expression, there are no barriers, conditions or expectations, there is only Love, that is all there is. You often confuse what you think is Love primarily romantic Love but this can be relevant to all relationships including family. You Love with conditions. You create conditions from which Love will be given and received and should those conditions not be met, you withdraw that Love. With the loss of Love comes pain. Pain should never be a symptom of Love but for you humans, it often is.

When a relationship fails it is though a death has occurred leaving a huge void in your heart. This can cause such suffering and those who are suffering, we truly feel for you for although we cannot understand it – we know only Love, we feel for you and the pain you have to endure.

It is not the breaking of the heart as you say, it is like the breaking of the soul leaving you with that empty feeling. This is because the soul needs to Love to grow.

So why do you feel that?

That is part of the human condition, it is part of your learning – that is after all why you are here, however it is so unnecessary, for deep inside you already know, your soul IS LOVE, it is part of the Divine yet it gets clouded by your misconceptions of what Love is and should be.

This happens when as a child. Children know and understand real Love for the Love of a child is pure and not tainted by conditions yet soon that child learns that certain behaviors bring increased levels of Love shown by the parent and when other behaviors are displayed, Love seems withdrawn and replaced with something much less pleasant! This continues into adult life when certain behaviors bring expressions of Love while others bring the lack of Love, sometimes terminally.

We so wish you would understand this concept and understand that Love, true Love is given freely without expectation.

Ask yourself this: Do you Love? Do you really Love? Can you give and accept Love without conditions?

It is only when this is understood can you really Love for it is after all, the Devine expression that is God and God is within each and everyone of you!

Of all the mysteries of life that should be the easiest one to understand yet you make it so difficult for yourselves!

Love seems to bring so much sorrow and pain and should that occur, we stand beside you offering comfort, offering Love, you just need to request it.

Why does Love fail?

Love never fails, it is your concept of Love that fails. In romantic relationships, Love often gets substituted by need and when that need subsides, so does the feeling of Love. Each and every one of you forms romantic relationships, this is part of the Divine creation. And this can be very intense, you may feel that the person is your as you say, soul mate and while as a rudimentary concept is true, many are destined to end and when it does we grieve with you as the contract you have established between you has been fulfilled.

This contract was decided upon before your incarnation where there is a set of goals to be accomplished as part of your learning – this also includes your Karmic responsibility. Once this contract has been completed the relationship may fail however, you as humans have your Divine gift of free-will to exercise, you may choose to continue the relationship as many do because you still Love, even being unaware your contract has ended or even existed!

Learning to let go is such a difficult thing for you to do and we feel for you, when you were a couple, so were your souls, just as the couple became one entity, it is though the soul does too (although this is not quite the case) nevertheless, the separation of the souls is that which causes such pain and suffering and it can be a desperate time, so hard to move on but that is what you must do.

You cannot live in the past no more than you can live in the future, you can only live in the here and now, the present.

“You often go through cycles of love and pain which remember is the result of your misconception and conditions of love, you confuse that “giddy,” feeling as love whereas Love, real Love manifests as Joy! Find what it is that brings you Joy, that is the path to Love.

One fundamental example of this is the Joy a parent feels at the birth of a child as the child is placed upon your arms, this is absolute Joy, this is absolute Love.

There are many things in life that can bring you Joy, these are for your own discovery, you have been given the tools of searching, you have been given this amazing planet called Earth and all upon it. Find what brings you Joy, this will bring you Love – The Divine expression of God!”



Hope

Hope is the salvation of despair for there is always hope, even in the most difficult of times even when all may seem lost. Do you think you stand alone? Loneliness can bring daggers of pain which stab at the heart but you must realise you are never alone.

Even the Christ felt the pain of despair and the loneliness when all around him was lost for despair will challenge the strongest of souls.

You have an army of helpers waiting by your side, your guides, your guardians and us, the Angels who’s number is infinite, we are at your disposal. But you must ask us into your life for the Law of free-will can not be broken.

Often times you are blind to our very existence yet even those who are without Faith or following call out to us in times of need.

We cannot right wrongs for you, we cannot change the Divine plan but we can give aid and comfort in times of need. But know that there is always Hope for as long as the sun rises bringing forth a new day there is a new beginning. You are the creators of your own life and each day gives you the chance to change, to re-create who you are, to re-create your life.

As I said before, you cannot live in the past, you cannot change the past and you must let go, for to hold on is like holding a hot coal. You must concentrate on this exact moment in time for what you do today will create your future, the future is determined by you!

For all those who feel in despair, take heart for there is always hope, always.

Faith

Faith is a most powerful thing, as it is said in the Bible, faith has the strength to move mountains. While this is of course not physically possible, it is the meaning behind it, if you have Faith you can truly do anything!

Faith is your belief, your belief in God, your belief in Angles and all in the service but just as important is the belief in yourself. If you have no belief in yourself why would any others?

There are many times it would appear your Faith is tested, was the Christ not tested in the desert? Your Faith may dwindle under the pressure of life and some of you may fail, you may lay down your arms and surrender, this brings such sorrow to us to see this happen. Not only do you give up on us but you give up on yourself.

If you can realise and hold Love in your heart this will be the barrier or wall to protect your Faith because he who loves all is surely a Master!

There can be no despair for you if you hold this Love because what you hold is everything, it is the All, it is the Divine expression of God, IT IS GOD!

Charity

It does not matter how hard or difficult your life may appear, there are always those in a worse position than you. Humans are a very charitable people and much good is done upon your planet by the giving of the people. This is one of the pillars of your creation.

But think this – Charity is not about giving money, that is one act of charity, Charity is giving of Yourself! For all humans carry within them the most noble of gifts, that is Compassion. Go through your life with Compassion, it is one way of giving of yourself, giving a part of you to another.

With the increase of compassion comes Empathy – the ability to “feel” for those around you. No life is wasted and if you can enhance someone else’s life by understanding how they feel and by giving a part of you, the riches you may receive in return cannot be measured by any monetary system.

If you all exercised Compassion and Empathy there would be no wars, there would be no conflict, there would be peace and harmony. Compassion is the doorway to Love.

To see the example of Compassion look at the story of the Christ. Did he turn away the sick, the old, the destitute? By showing compassion you show Love of the Highest kind.


You asked what the Key to Life is, well I have told you, it is now up to you to use these three Keys, Faith, Hope and Charity for they will bring you the final and Highest Key and that is Love.

Ascension

There is much talk about Ascension in these times as great instability falls across the land bringing the most tumultuous of changes. Many theories and beliefs exist around this and I would like to briefly speak upon this.

Your planet has transitioned into the Photon Belt and is being bombarded with this new energy, energy which has not been seen on your planet for many thousands of years, just as it brought great change for the Atlanteans, it will also bring great change for you.

The complete fabric of your existence is being unthreaded bit by bit and while this may impress that it is being destroyed think not of it like that. These threads will be re-woven into the next phase of your existence. It is now more important than ever to exist in your Highest Vibration, be the best person you can be – use the Keys I have discussed.

You have all chosen to be here at this time like a mighty band of warriors set to liberate your planet.

There are and will be forces in opposition to thwart every move but fear not for you have the Divine purpose on your side, battles may be lost but do not dwell upon it for a war is still to be won – this war will rage within the hearts of you as your physical paradigm dissolves leaving much confusion. Many of you will fall and this may be considered failing but in truth none fail.

The Light is always available to all and you must use your collective conscious at its highest vibration in harmony for each other. This may be a trying time yet it is an exciting time to be alive!

Do not concern yourself with the question of Ascension for all Ascend. Isn’t the physical death an Ascension?

You see, the question is too focused on Ascension and this is taking your focus away from the real question in hand.

Rather than ask how can I Ascend, ask how can I exist in pure LOVE!

This is the Highest of Ascension, this has been the successful conclusion to many Masters who walked your Earth, aren’t they now called Ascended Masters?

You can start on your path today, that is your choice, that is your free-will to decide.
