There are going to be stretches of time where the masses of citizens throughout the world will place themselves in a life of panic. The incorporation of fear that is created by listening to other people's ignorance will only slow you down. There is not legitimate purpose in running your everyday existence on a process of worrying about things that are likely fallacious or engender no helpful aspects. Anyone who wants to live their life with zest and generosity, love and hope, must recognize that fear only serves to diminish the ability to do so.There are going to be numerous instances of zealots preaching the end of the world, while others will shout that if you do not follow some particular ideology that you will be doomed. Ultimately, the empowerment should not be given to them, but remain with yourself and your control to depict truth from fiction, as well as to extract a modicum of commonsense when you listen. Simply because someone is a great orator, or they take such an intense approach in trying to persuade you to believe in their scurrilous actions does not mean you should fall in line like a sheep.
God created you as your own Sheppard. It is you who should be dictating the path to happiness that you want and deserve. It is you who has the power to restart your journey in life any day you want! Imagine, imagine, imagine! What do you see in your future? Is it something good, or something limiting because the arrogance of others told you that you aren't capable or good enough to do something? Quietly think about this as you step into a world that has vibrancy and opportunities awaiting you each moment of every day! These are The Spoken Words of Spirit.

"Anyone who wants to live their life with zest and generosity, love and hope, must recognize that fear only serves to diminish the ability to do so." Letting go of fear gives you tremendous freedom! I think that is what Spirit means when they say we are such powerful human beings with limitless opportunities.
"Imagine, imagine, imagine!" I did! I imagined the world was not gong to end and it didnt'! :) I just have too many things to do before the end!
Thank you Jim, as always. xo
This is a great post about those lost souls who followed a false leader.... These people have been weighing on my mind heavily these last 36 hours. I pray for them and hope this was a wake up call. Life is to be lived, not feared.
For some reason, my prayer I made up a while ago comes to mind for these souls:
"Lord, I pray that I may be a power of example, never a preacher or bearer of burdens and to always remember that these things are possible with you through me!"
With Love & Happiness,
Jeni

God Bless you always,

Yes, we are our own shepherds and there is no "one way" or "one path" to follow to advance our souls. Great message!
"It is you who should be dictating the path to happiness that you want and deserve. It is you who has the power to restart your journey in life any day you want! Imagine, imagine, imagine!

Diane, you have too many people to heal. You are going to stay around for awhile, or until the next "guru" claims he knows when the world is ending.
Jeni, I love the prayer. I might have to steal it one of these days.
Mary, Jim and Liz, my thanks to each of you too.
