The Spoken Words of Spirit--October 30, 2008

There will be days ahead that many people will wonder why they helped to aid and abet in a bad choice. One of the fascinating things about life is that it can be nullified because all people are given the intelligence to delve deeper into the recesses of their minds. If you can do this and remove your emotions and patterned behavior to really think about what you want, it might surprise you that your future should be dictated by decisions that are uplifting because of a change in your thinking. Freedom is the primary goal that Spirit wants for everyone. We don't care what your religious philosophies are, nor do we care where you live or what your skin tone happens to be. To accomplish a sense of freedom and success, it is vital for you to remember that Spirit, and many people in the physical realm, are always looking to give a helping hand. This is something that you must keep in mind, especially if you are the one looked to as the giver of the hand. Why do we say this? It's simple. While it is fine to give a helping hand to empower people, it is harmful to simply give a handout. All that does is inspire people to have no will to improve on their own. It divides and clutters each person's assessment of how to live their life. It makes people weaker and less enabled to pull themselves up and be a more useful member of society.

We have brought this up because in the years to come, many different issues are to arise that will require more prayer and introspection so that a level of comfort and peace can be achieved. Many of you are once again assuming that there is a political agenda threaded through this message, however, you would be wrong. We are discussing this in terms of your personal lives and the lives of others. This is where you can make a difference and teach yourself and others that sometimes compassionate behavior can actually be debilitating. While giving or receiving a helping hand, be careful not to take away your determination and desire to lift life to a point of self-worth and love of life. In no way are we telling you not to help others. In fact, it is vital for you to "pay forward" so that you can have a peaceful feeling in your heart. Show gratitude for what you have, what is given and what you will give. These are the spoken words of Spirit.
