God said:

Consider this: There is no penalty. You are not in danger.

There is no danger.
Yes, yes, you imagine penalty and/or danger around every corner. You do not need to wear a knight’s shining armor.

You do not need protection.
You are safe. You are well taken-care of.

Ah, but you choose to be what you perceive as a realist, and you feel pursued by all that you do not want. You make friends with it.

Will you, as a favor to Me, please start feeling safe and secure and know that I forever hold you safe in My arms of love?

The world is fraught with change, and this worries you. Begin to remind yourself that the world is filled with love as well. Love is inevitable. Love is secure.

Love from Me to you is a constant. Love you have, only, you hide so much love from yourself. Perhaps you do not feel worthy, and so you deny yourself security.

You deny yourself love. You give yourself suffering in advance. Perhaps you feel that, by suffering in advance, you are lessening your chances of pain.

Beloveds, what you are doing is making sure that you receive what you consider your allotted pain.

It is like you make a reservation for it, as if you desire a front-row seat, as if you don’t want to miss the performance.

You do not need to draw any kind of suffering to you. If, as you seem to think, pain is inevitable, why, then, draw it to you?

Don’t keep count. Don’t run toward it. Don’t have your arms wide open for it.

You find life scary. Therefore, you are scared. Yet fear does not protect you. Why do you act as though it does?

Fear may well actually draw to you that which you fear.
Give up on suffering. You have learned suffering. You have been taught it.

You were a good learner. You believe pain is inevitable, and so you lie in wait for it, as if lying in wait is somehow a repellant, or, perhaps, that being alert to suffering, suffering will pass you by as a courtesy or as a delaying action.

But the thing is, you tend to wait for the other shoe to fall. What you wait in watch for, often occurs, or you call it to you, and it comes.

Perhaps you consider the world a jungle. Think a different thought.
What you think matters. It matters a lot.

What you think is like a map you follow.

Better to take initiative and chart your course. Draw your own course. Call it a map of your life.
Draw pictures of what you welcome to your side.

Write descriptions. Immerse your thoughts in what you desire. Believe in desires at least as much as you believe in bad news.

Change your ideas. Have different ideas. Offer yourself treats every day. Look at the sun. Watch the clouds roll by. Immerse yourself in the life you want.

Create it.
From the silence of your love, create your life.

To some degree and much to your protest, you do. Life is not all cards that are dealt you.

Even when you have been dealt a rough hand, it is up to you how you are to deal with it. Even when you have real trouble, you have choices to make.

You can choose to elevate your life and the lives around you, or you can feel sorry for yourself and take the line of least resistance.

Or you can stand tall and be strong in the glory in which I made you.
