Dear God/Goddess, Regarding the names I use for you, why do I seem to ask for both God and Goddess, it feels best to me when I use both, but why is that? Are you one or the other or both?
Dear Sweet Child, We would like to explain that God or Goddess is not one or the other, but all encompassing energy, ever expanding. However, if you ask for Goddess energy, you can bring forth more of a limited energy, not limited in ability, but more focused. Like the difference between a sun ray that lights up a whole room, vs. a laser beam that shines a pinpoint light on the wall... When you ask for God or Goddess, you have brought the ray more focused, a more focused pinpoint usage. It not so much which name you use, or combination of names, all are powerful in their applied usage. However, when getting specific answers, the laser is more useful. Also, like we said earlier, when you use these names, you are asking for what you feel will be very high vibration answers. It does matter what you are expecting to hear, and also it helps what vibration you are in, when asking for answers. Often if you ask for God, you are expecting a male slant on the answer, and a female slant from Goddess. Again it is YOUR asking and expecting that brings the focused answers from us.
Is there a difference between God and Goddess, if I would ask for one rather than another?)
Well, if you were writing to your father rather than your mother, you would know that there is a difference in them, and your thoughts about who they are, are different. These thoughts have a different vibration, which is similar in regards to the two names you have given us. We are not one name or the other, but if you ask for one then you will be asking through the slant you would expect of that name. We really aren't both names either, but it helps you to use both names, which then broaden the laser beam, more light a powerful flashlight. It gives a more broader slant on things.
We still have all the power of a sun, our eternal energy, in the focused light you ask for, but we tone it down, so as not to give you a really big headache. At least that is the way you responded to our strong energy. Someone else might tolerate it better, but know you are doing so much better over time, in handling more and more energy. It may matter more to the people who read this, what name you believe we are, than to you. But remember, it is not a specific name we go by, but the feeling you get when you hear us that determines who you are hearing from.
If you are feeling good from hearing from us, and it rings true, then that is what matters. We understand it helps to give us a name, but just remember, it is for your sake, not ours that we have a name or names. We are with you always, no matter what you call us, you will feel us deep in your heart. And, you will know when you have touched our energy, when you feel amazing, loving, peaceful and passionate all at the same time. Like when you first fall in love. Remember that feeling, and you will know what it is like to connect fully with us.

Are you really God/Goddess?
Dear God/Goddess, So if you are not what what we think, can you explain what we should think? Are you only “my higher self” instead of God/Goddess?
My Dear Sweet Child, Your higher self is a part of us, just as we are a part of Abraham. You have called us God/Goddess for a long time, and when you ask for those names you bring a connection to you that correspond to that vibration. That is good. We are all vibration, and depending on who is reaching out and connecting, will get messages from us that correspond to the vibrations they are sending out Life is full of vibrations, and we lower our vibration to the level you can hear us. That is why you often get a headache when you are reaching out to hear us. Since you have been feeling less negative emotions lately you have found that there is less fatigue and headache. It is not that we cause the headache, but that there is still a difference in the vibrations, even when we try and match your vibration as much as possible.
Are you really God/Goddess?
Those are labels you have given to the highest vibrations you can imagine. You are tapping into the collective that you would consider being part of that energy, but we are so much more than you can imagine, the part of us who you are talking to, is a part of that highest vibration that you can imagine, that doesn’t mean that that is the highest vibration there is.
Consider that everything is vibrating. everything that you can see, and can not see. And that each vibrates at a certain speed. But the speed doesn’t make things actually separate, but it gives everyone a ability to show up differently. Like different vegetables in a vegetable soup. Every vegetable vibrates differently but they all are part of the same soup.. We are the “soup” and you are part of the “soup” but in order for you to hear us, we allow ourselves to vibrate at a certain frequency to be heard. You can call us what ever you want, but the higher the vibration you expect, the higher you will get.
Still, remember we have to be heard through your filters. Whenever you read any messages from someone else’s or these, you need to run them through some criteria, such as your tummy test. If they feel familiar, feel right in your heart. You know that these messages are coming from the higher vibrations you are hoping for. If the messages contain love, compassion and joy, then you know they feel right. We are like your H2O, because it can be experienced very differently depeding on what vibrations it is. Ice is very different than mist, even though they are both H2O molecules.
We know we truly haven't anwswerd your question on who we are, because we can't be contained or labled, but we understand your need to know. The lables that you give us is for your assistance in understanding our energy, out presence in your lives. It gives you something to grasp and focus on We are more vast and expanasive than you can imagine, and can become as pinpoint energy as a laser beam. We appreciate your attempt at understanding this. For now, be with it, and continue to run these messages by your tummy. and see how they feel.

Am I hearing you correctly?
Dear God/Goddess, The three teachings that have helped me the most, have been these conversations, the CwG books, and the teachings of Abraham who is channeled by Esther Hicks. Anyone who is not familiar with Abraham's teaching can learn more from their web site Abraham-Hicks.com. Often you are saying the same thing as what I hear the other two say. Am I hearing you clearly, or is it strongly influenced by their teachings? The messages seem to be saying the same thing, only a little differently. Can I trust what I am hearing from you?
My Dear Sweet Child, Now that is a good question, it is actually both. The messages from us, and the the other sources you mentioned, are mainly the same, because we are part of the same energy. We are all part of the whole, and depending on who is asking the questions, and who is listening to us, will have a unique slant on things. Of course the knowledge that you have, will come through when hearing us. We actually use your knowledge to form concepts on the subjects that you ask about. We would have a difficult time telling you about calculus and teaching you about it, since it is completely foreign to you. If we want to teach calculus we find a person who will hear us that knows all about that, and has questions on it. Often people’s hunches and new ideas than come from dreams or out of the blue as you often say, are from us. They may not understand that it is coming from us. That is not important anyway, for we are not what you think anyway. (More on this tomorrow)

Recovering Pessimist Part 2
Continued from November 25, 06
Thank you, I really appreciate this help. Can you help me regarding what can I do about things that invlove other people, such as their decisions and actions that effect me. I can’t control someone else, so how do I keep from worrying about what they will do? How does my thoughts affect someone else?
You are always co-creating in your life. This is what is hard to understand. Know that you can’t control others, but your vibrations you send out in the form of your thoughts and feelings, will affect others. And since like vibrations attract like vibrations, then you will know that if you are getting behavior from others that you do not like, you may want to go inside and look at what kind of thoughts and feelings are going out. This is not to beat yourself up. Because that is just more of the same thoughts that create more lower vibrations that go out. Then they will come back, giving you more things to worry and fret about. Can you see how this can compound the situation, and make it even harder to change you vibration?
Yes, so how can I turn my vibration around, stop being a pessimist. Stop that downward cycle?
There is good news, and that is the fact that it works the other way too, the better you feel, the happier you are, the better life works out for you. Like attracts like in this area too. If you can really grasp this Law of Attraction, then you can choose what type of dominant thoughts that you will be thinking. In the beginning of turning your thoughts to positive ones, you might still be getting in your life, stuff you don’t like that was sent out before from previous negative thoughts. That is when it will take some dedication to stay positive. Look for things that you are appreciative of, things that will make you feel better. Also, know that we are always here with you, and if you ask for help, we are there, and can help you feel more love in your heart. Tune into the love that resides deep within you, and know that is who you truly are, the one who wants to experience the joys of life. This is a big focus in your life, so there will be more on this subject, but for now this is enough.

A Recovering Pessimist
Dear God/Goddess, So you know that I am a recovering pessimist. And when I was always thinking the worst, it sure gave me a lot to worry about. It seemed like I was always waiting for the other shoe to drop. I am so much better these days, but that feeling still shows up once in a while. The difference now is that I know all those thoughts will become a self-fulfilling prophecy. At first I didn’t believe that my thoughts created my reality, but I figured, if it is true, then why not think about things I would like to create, rather than worry about what I did not want to create. I have been asking a lot of questions about this, and reading everything I could find on this subject. I have been observing how the average of my thoughts and feelings actually do create similar vibrations that came back to me, sometimes I see it right away, sometime it takes a little longer. I saw the movie “The Secret” and it was amazing, but can you help me regarding why it is still so easy to fret and worry, even when I know all this, and what I can do about it?
My Dear Sweet Child, this has been something that has been part of you for a long time, and it will not be easy to overcome. It has been a long time habit, but habits can be changed. When you recognize that you are worrying, and you are not feeling good, then that is the time to stop, and step back, and ask yourself, can you do anything about the thing you are worrying about right now? If not, then stop and look around and see if there is something that you can feel appreciative and happy about right now. If there is something that can be done, ask yourself if is possible for you to do it now or plan to do it soon, rather than just worrying about it. There are many ways to help you overcome this worring. You have have already done a lot to decrease this in your life, be glad for that.
More on this subject tomorrow……

A Time to Give Thanks
Dear God/Goddess, Here it is Thanksgiving in the US, and there is so much for me to be thankful for. So many times I forget to really take stock, and appreciate things in my life. Why is that? I used to not want to really focus on the good things in my life, because I felt I might jinx it. The more I liked having something or someone in my life, the more I worried about losing it or them. Now I understand that the state of appreciation, of being thankful will certainly not jinx anything, but instead bring more of the things I am appreciating, not that is why I feel appreciative. But why is it so hard to appreciate something, often not really appreciating something until we have lost it, or almost lost it. Why do I so often forget to appreciate many things in my life?
My Dear Sweet Child, We welcome you. At this time of year, one tends to take stock and focus more on who is in your life, wanting to be around friends and family. Thinking about what you want to get them for Christmas, if that is your tradition. Even if you don’t follow this Christian tradition, often the whole world will feel a difference around this time of year. There is a slight different energy that is created by so many people all over thinking about family and friends.
You asked why you often don’t appreciate things as much as you would like. Life is full of busy times, and often you can get very busy, but have you not noticed that the happier you are the more appreciative you are? You did chose to be in this life and in this body, to be able to appreciate things. And, in order to really appreciate things you have to have the opportunities to have all choices in life. Life can be appreciated for life itself. But having the contrasts in life, allows you to experience the state of appreciation fully. Like you said life is full of choices and often someone doesn’t appreciate something until they lose it or almost lose it.
It can’t be good to have to think or have that experience of losing something to really appreciate it, how can you help us to really get there without having to dwell on the losing part?
Well, on this day of Thanksgiving, what happens when you give thanks?
All I know is that I feel better, feel more loving. This day is all about giving thanks for everything in our lives, especially friends and family. But it can be very hard for some people, it can be very painful if someone can’t be with their loved ones, or is homeless and there isn’t much to be thankful for. Are these some of the forms of contrast you were talking about? Could you explain further?
Life is full of opportunities and choices. No matter what is happening, and what or who is or is not in your life, there can always be something to be thankful for. We do not say you have to be thankful, this is not a have to, only a wonderful way to raise your vibration and feel more love in your heart. Think back to some of your favorite memories, a time when you were really touched by something. Were you feeling the feeling of appreciation at the time, or a form of it? These feelings are very close to your true state, your Soul. These will be times you will remember well, the times you have given thanks. That is why we are suggesting to give thanks, and appreciate the moments and people in your life.
You will notice that the more you appreciate these things, the more things you will have to appreciate, and that just adds to the wonderful state of connecting with your Soul. You are this way in spirit, but you wanted to come to this body and life, to have all the contrast and choices to know what it is really like to appreciate something. A small example could be getting a hot shower after camping for days. You might take a shower most everyday, and not really appreciate it, but after going days out in the wilderness getting cold and dirty, doesn’t that hot shower feel exceptionally wonderful? Your True Self is always experiencing wonderful things, but your Soul likes to get a full experience of appreciation. So take this time to stop and allow your Soul to live life fully, and know how lucky you truly are to get to be there, and experience all you do.
I give Thanks to you, for this connection and creating a venue to share these words with others. And all that is in my life.

Self-preservation
Dear God/Goddess, can you help me know how to deal with my body and mind, especially when it strongly wants what it wants and I know that is not even good for the body. You would think that since the body has a self-preservation mode in it, it would be the one to want to take care of it, like eating right and exercising.
Good Morning Sweet Child, it is good to connect. That question has some complicated parts to it. You really do have programmed in you to know what foods are good for you, and a desire to get up and move. And to get the sleep the body needs. However, it is also programmed to find ways of feeling pleasure. And it does not like feeling pain. This program of finding pleasure and avoiding pain, can at times over-ride the knowledge of what is in the long term good for the body. Also, if the body has been eating a lot of things that taste good, but are not good for the body, the body starts developing a taste for them instead of the better foods.
When you are eating only healthy foods, and avoiding the high sugar, salty and fried foods, your taste buds will change. And you will start craving fruits and nuts and stuff like that. It goes the other way too, if eating a lot of sugar, you will start craving more of it. This is part of the pleasure/pain principal. It usually is up to another part of you to decide what it truly pleasurable and painful. What you really want to experience. None f it is really good or bad, but what works. Remember, the Free Will, so you are able to choose from all the options out there. Who is deciding that the temporary pain from exercising, will eventually give you pleasure later on? That could be either your mind and or your Soul. We could spend hours and hours on the subject of your mind, so for now know that your mind is a tool for you to work with, and it is not the real you. When you are wanting to change some habits that you know are not having a good effect on your health, it might be helpful to ask yourself in the moment you are about to do something that you know is not good for your body, can I get some pleasure from something else, and can I get some better benefit in the long run, if I do or not do this now.

Body/Mind/Soul Connection
Dear God/Goddess, well, I see that my body and mind seems to have a strong hold over the Soul. Why is it that my body wants to sleep, eat sweets and not exercise, and mind likes to worry all the time, and watch stupid TV shows!!!
If I exercise, do chores, eat right, avoid sweets and alcohol and get up and write in the early mornings, I know it is so good for me, but it sure is pushing against my bodies desires. And thinking positive thoughts seems to be against what my minds wants to think about? Does the Soul like a challenge, is that why we jump into these bodies that often make it hard to get past these bodies and minds desires, and why are these desires so strong!!! They especially get stronger when I give in and give them what they want. And usually those are not what is good for me!
Dear Sweet Child, so many good questions, we welcome you pushing through wanting to go back to sleep, even right now it is calling you! This is a good example of overriding what the body wants. Your body would rather be sleeping, and often it gets what it wants. But before we go much further, we would like to make clear that these three parts are not as clearly separate as it seems to be discussed here. The body/mind spilt isn’t exactly a direct split. The Soul is also not a complete separate entity while in your body. Some times you can feel the difference, but they are all married, blended in a way that tends to blur the edges of the separate entities of the three we have been discussing. It is like a melding together that was created at birth or around there, when the Soul took on that body and mind. It also took on the history of the ancestors of that body, and it all became a blended unit. That is why rarely no one part is in complete control, except, like in the case when the body is filed with so much numbing substances to over-ride the other parts of you,.
The Soul is here for expression and growth, it takes on the body and mind to allow it to be able to do that. But it is not in the Soul’s nature to over-ride these other parts of you. It is a subtle influence, especially if the Soul itself hasn’t developed enough to know how to direct the other parts into a more spiritual life.
The spiritual life has to be truly chosen, with all the other options to choose from. Then the Soul gets the true joy of choosing that life. But in order to have a true choice, other options have to be available.
How can we recognize the Soul and give it full expression and growth?
Good question , to recognize it, it is kind of like recognizing your conscience, but it is not a parent in a scolding way, that is your mind. No, your Soul gives you love and compassion, joy and freedom. When you are feeling these things, you are in touch with your Soul. Compassion for you and others can give you insight to the plight of getting along and the blending of all your parts.
When you die, the body falls away first, you step out of it like stepping out of a space suite the astronauts wear. That part goes quickly, and not mourned for, because like the astronauts, they feel released from that tight constraint of the space suit, and they know that suit is not them. The mind that came with the body, can have lingering affects after death, especially if there was a clear identity with the mind that was established during that life time. But you will eventually drop that off and re-connect with who you truly are, the watcher of it all. Reach into yourself now, and feel yourself, who is there? When you hold your newborn child, or see a beautiful sunset, or that moment of falling in love, when your life is full of wonder and joy in the moment, that is when you are in touch with who you really are.

Does the Soul like a challenge, is that why we jump into these bodies that often make it hard to get past these bodies and minds desires, and why are these desires so strong!!! They especially get stronger when I give in and give them what they want. And usually those are not what is good for me!
Dear Sweet Child, so many good questions, we welcome you pushing through wanting to go back to sleep, even right now it is calling you! This is a good example of overriding what the body wants. Your body would rather be sleeping, and often it gets what it wants. But before we go much further, we would like to make clear that these three parts are not as clearly separate as it seems to be discussed here. The body/mind spilt isn’t exactly a direct split. The Soul is also not a complete separate entity while in your body. Some times you can feel the difference, but they are all married, blended in a way that tends to blur the edges of the separate entities of the three we have been discussing. It is like a melding together that was created at birth or around there, when the Soul took on that body and mind. It also took on the history of the ancestors of that body, and it all became a blended unit. That is why rarely no one part is in complete control, except, like in the case when the body is filed with so much numbing substances to over-ride the other parts of you,.
The Soul is here for expression and growth, it takes on the body and mind to allow it to be able to do that. But it is not in the Soul’s nature to over-ride these other parts of you. It is a subtle influence, especially if the Soul itself hasn’t developed enough to know how to direct the other parts into a more spiritual life.
The spiritual life has to be truly chosen, with all the other options to choose from. Then the Soul gets the true joy of choosing that life. But in order to have a true choice, other options have to be available.
How can we recognize the Soul and give it full expression and growth?
Good question , to recognize it, it is kind of like recognizing your conscience, but it is not a parent in a scolding way, that is your mind. No, your Soul gives you love and compassion, joy and freedom. When you are feeling these things, you are in touch with your Soul. Compassion for you and others can give you insight to the plight of getting along and the blending of all your parts.
When you die, the body falls away first, you step out of it like stepping out of a space suite the astronauts wear. That part goes quickly, and not mourned for, because like the astronauts, they feel released from that tight constraint of the space suit, and they know that suit is not them. The mind that came with the body, can have lingering affects after death, especially if there was a clear identity with the mind that was established during that life time. But you will eventually drop that off and re-connect with who you truly are, the watcher of it all. Reach into yourself now, and feel yourself, who is there? When you hold your newborn child, or see a beautiful sunset, or that moment of falling in love, when your life is full of wonder and joy in the moment, that is when you are in touch with who you really are.

Resistance to getting up early
Dear God/Goddess,
Good morning, these messages have come through best in the early mornings, which is a problem for me, because that is not my best time. Any one who knows me, will know that I am not a morning person!! So this leads me to my first question.
Why is my body so resistant in getting up early in the morning? Why, even when I know that meditating, eating right, and yoga is so good for me, do I often have such resistance to them?
Dear Sweet Child, it is good to connect on a more direct basis. We are always here; all you have to do is stop and listen. But we will not interfere, as you know “Free will” is one of the laws of the Universe, which is a gift to you. We capitalize Free Will because it is a very important law, and we want to make sure you see the importance of it. Free Will is the only thing that allows you total freedom to all things. And when you, as a Soul, is fused with a body and the mind/personality, your Free Will is with all three levels of the Soul, body and mind/personality. From now on, when we say mind, know that we are referring to the combined mind/personality part of you.
Going back to your question of why you aren’t getting up in the mornings to write, or doing other things you know would be good for you, know that your body first, and then your mind is using their Free Will and over ridding your Souls desire, and our gentle prodding’s to write. We can let you know we are alvalable, but because of your Free Will we will never force our presence on you. Fatigue is not your natural state, it is where one or more of your lower energy feelings is draining your body from your natural higher vibration vitality.
But why does this writing leave me fatigued at times?
Regular fatigue comes from the lower vibration feelings, such as sadness, worry, or frustration. The fatigue you are experiencing when connecting to us, is because you are not used to being in our high vibration. If you are in a wonderful feeling state when you connect with us, you will not feel this fatigue. And some of the fatigue is the fear of what you might hear, or the fear of loss of control by the mind and body.
The body doesn’t always lead with the things that might be good for it. It has to be trained, just as training for a marathon requires vigorous, consistent and frequent trainings. If left on its own, the bodies’ Free Will would not go through this vigorous effort. So now we are getting to the levels of Free Will of the body, the mind, and the Soul. Actually it isn’t quite that simple of three divisions, but for the sake of your language and understanding of these terms, it is OK at this time to label them this way.
Mind and body go with the temporary life you are in, the Soul is what lives on, but your Soul is a combination of this incarnation and all the other incarnations you have had where you have bee infused with other bodies and minds.
The Soul is what lives on after the body dies, but the body and mind can influence the Soul depending on who you feel is the real you. Who you associate yourself with during this life, will determine how much the body and mind will affect your Soul.
So many of you are lessening the body and minds affect on the Soul, which is gives the Soul great joy. The Soul is who you truly are, but when it takes on a body and mind it becomes integrated with all three and with each of the Free Wills available for the body and mind, and the Soul yearns for the ability to lead in the choices you have in your life.
Then why would the Soul want to allow the body and mind to have a Free Will if it yearns to lead?
It is like entering a contest, do you get more joy and excitement from winning if there was an equal opportunity to not win, rather than an automatic win? Isn’t it more fun and thrilling to win when it wasn’t a given? That is why your Soul likes to give it the opportunity for the Soul to lead is not a given. And to make it extra challenging you put yourself on this planet full of opposites, so there are so many variables to choose from. So when the body, mind and soul have a Free Will of their own, which one will be the strongest in your life?
