At Christmas Time

At Christmas time - the Christ's Mass - a time of celebration for Christians or those raised in a Christian Society.  It was also an ancient celebration of the emergence from the deepest dark of days in the Northern Hemisphere.  Greeting the light, as we should greet the light of Spirit every day of our earthly life for this is the sustaining force and power of life - of all life.  Spirit is in everything that is; even a grain of sand is no less an evocation of Spirit than mankind.  Praise the beauty and wonder of all creation, give thanks for all that is.  No life is sustained other than by the will and grace of Spirit.  From Spirit you have come and to Spirit you will return to merge with the wholeness of Love and Peace to be at one with the Light of Spirit.  You have the freedom to be and to do what you will, to make of your earthly existence all that you can - to be, or not to be, as you see fit - but remember that you are responsible to all that is, to yourself and to Spirit.  Little wonder that some scorn their responsibilities, waste their opportunities and meander down many paths rather than follow their proper path.  The rewards, however, for those who strive, struggle and succeed is endless and vast.

Atonement is that reward.  To be at one with Spirit, to be at one with self, to be at one with the universe and with all creation.  No void, no limbo, no purgatory, no hell but the purity of Spirit.  When you are told that your loved ones in spirit are just as you remember them but without their ills or disfigurements, that they enjoy all that they did in earthly form you are seeing a half truth.  For your comfort you are given these things in the language of your earthly understanding. The truth is greater than your comprehension and your language is incapable of expressing it.  Be assured that the wonder of the coming experience is beyond your imagining, the closer to the Purity of Spirit you travel you will not need your language or limited understanding.   You will Be.
