Happy New YOU
Sunday is Message Day on the blog. Monday through Friday we look at contemporary events and day-to-day occurrences at the intersection of Life and the New Spirituality…but on Sunday, we reserve this space for a specific teaching derived from the...
This is excellent. I'm trying to mastered such a philosophy in my walk.
I loved this post! Especially the hopping part. :^)
And the way to hop into the new year is to come from the place of Hoping and Believing and move into the place of knowing what we always wanted to be true really is true. I am both the creator and created. The perceiver and the perception. As such, I have the power to choose and create a new reality from my highest thoughts and feelings of love not fear.
"The Hope which became Belief has become Knowing. I suddenly Know—simply KNOW—that this is How It Is. I know it, because the IT that IS this, I Am. The Perceiver and the Perception have become One.
The Creator and the Created have merged. Unification has occurred. We are, I am, All of It is, ONE.
Do you understand what I’m saying here? I sounds like I’m on drugs, right? That’s the problem with spiritual clarity. It can be very difficult to share your thoughts with others because you start to sound crazy. People will think you’re hopped up. Heck, I look at what I just wrote and I think I’m hopped up.
Yet maybe it’s time for just that. Maybe it’s time for all of us to hop up to a New Level."
Yes! I am ready. Let's all Hop into a New Year together!
Happy New Year Everyone!
Love and Peace,
Michelle
Yes, Happy New You to everyONE!
Wish me luck or peace.....as I am having surgery Jan. 3 to remove 4 screws from my ankle fusion site (5/07). I just found out that my now former doc put stainless steel in my ankle, when I am allergic to nickel which is in the stainless! Hopefully by removing the hardware, my ankle will heal and most of the continued pain since the fusion will subside. Keeping my fingers crossed!!!
Love reading Neales and everyONE's posts here...it has helped keep my sanity in a mostly numb world out there.
Off the subject, Wisdum, you are right about never sending a steak back in a restaurant!!!! many employees are frustrated, so I wouldn't take any chances!!! LOL
I like to say, Happy New Moment!!!
Hugs, Suzy Ohio

HAPPY NEW GOD
Hi, Neal my name is Martin and i am 28 years old and live in Austria. I grew up in a social enviorment where the only thing that you should believe in was the Bible and going to church and being repentfull was the only thing to do to save your lost soul.
Lucky enough was my mother a Candian women who before coming to Austria and marrying my Dad had seen a lot of places in the world and seen a lot of things to believe in. So she always left me a choice to choose for myself, going to church on Sunday or watching Cartoons. Guess what i did. Well i still love Cartoons.
Anyway, all my life i felt the good in this live, when i was junger i could only describe it as the good that i felt and saw in many things. My mother was always a good teacher she once told me not to judge anybody for their color of their skin or their religion or anything, she said you have to get to know that somebody before you can see who he is. I sort of always kept that in mind, but i still have to admit that i have been racist and judging many times in my life. In my life i always felt that there was something else.
Life was like a big Puzzle for me. It was like i saw all the pieces but they wouldnt fit together. I tryed hard to put the pieces together but the pieces kept changing. I always knew there was an answer to my problem. CWG gave me an answer. The answer is "Every piece of the Puzzle is the same and always was". CWG reminded me that God is everything and God can not be anything else but everything. I knew that before but somehow i just could not see it. So know I finally put together all the pieces and saw the whole Picture in its greatest greatness of Itself.
I must thank you for reminding me of what i always knew. I am and always will be everything and anybody there ever will be. God is now. Thanks again, Happy New Year and i wish you a great Journey home.
Martin

Happy New YOU
The message is: no matter how badly things may have gone, no matter how bad I may have been, that was ‘Then’ and this is ‘Now.’ A New Day has dawned, a New Moment has arrived. It is the Golden Moment of Now, wherein which all things are possible, all things are forgiven, all things are made new.
** The old saying was “Today is the first day of the rest of your Life !”
January is the Month of Hope. Hope is the first step on the road to Mastery. There are three in all. They are: Hoping, Believing, Knowing.
** For me there is only one Master, and that is God, whatever you may call Him/Her
The Time of the Light has arrived.
** Interesting “The Followers of the Way” said that over 2,000 years ago with holding up Yeshuah (on a cross/tree) as the Truth, the Light and the Way !
The Eternal Flame has been placed within you. It is you.
** Not exactly . . .The Eternal Flame is your soul/spirit, and you are a costume for it. As the Bible says “We hold a treasure, not made of gold, in earthen vessels, of wealth untold”
The Christed One has been born again as you. It is you.
** The word Christ, means- to be rubbed on, to be touched by (generally, considered to be God) We are ALL a Christ, or we would not exist or have Life. Then we have the perceived “The Christ” who Christians consider to be Yeshuah, who came to set the standard of the Word for Love . . . and that would be Uncompromising, Unconditional Love.
I am not so good at forgiving myself.
** And that is rooted in Paulist Roman Catholic Guilt . . . and they had the nerve to term that Roman-ce. In counseling they recommend that you write all the BS guilt down on a piece of paper (or many pieces !) go out in your backyard, dig a hole, throw it all in there, set it on fire and bury it ! . . . Amen !
It is self-serving to forgive oneself.
** Of course it is ! But don’t let me stop you . . .”I have come to set you free” (Yeshuah)
Indeed, you cannot know anything without serving it.
** For me there are some things I would not serve myself, like being in prison . . . “Render unto Caesar, that which is Caesar’s, and unto God, that which is God’s” (Yeshuah)
Service is the experience of Knowing, in action. This is how we come to Know God.
** I thought it was in having Conversations With God, or as I like to put it “Do you have a personal relationship with God ?”
Serving God is, of course, Self-service.
** Uhhhh . . .whut ?
Through the process of serving God, we come to know that we are serving the Self
** Uhhhh . . .was that a bit vise-versa ?
There is nothing but the Circle, there is nothing but the Cycle, and it is only a question of where we are, now, on that never-ending revolution of the soul.
** This might surprise you, but with God everything is a unique experience. There has never been anything created the same (ergo, evolution/adaptation) There was never a previous Neale, nor will there be another Neale !
We are revolving, and as we experience each revolution we see more clearly that it is a Spiritual Revolution, producing a Spiritual Evolution. We are doing much more than simply “going around in circles” here. For the soul, revolution is evolution.
** Uhhhhh . . .would the revolving be as the earth revolving ? Or are you suggesting that God is going around in Circles ! (have you seen the Zeitgeist Movie, it sounds like you have !)
the Circle is not a circle at all, but a Spiral.
** How about a double helix, like DNA . . .cool!
It is like a Slinky.
** Cool! . . are we getting into “Come to Me, like a child !”
Remember the Slinky? What a wonderful childhood toy. Pushed together, crammed together, it looks like a circle. Only when it is expanded does it reveal itself to be a spiral.
** Just a little deeper perception here, it looks like a tube to me, but that just my perception ! And expanded it looks like a spring ! . . .in fact it is a spring ! Cool ! From God, springs forth Life . . .and it goes down steps too ! Cool!
The Hope which became Belief has become Knowing. I suddenly Know—simply KNOW—that this is How It Is. I know it, because the IT that IS this, I Am. The Perceiver and the Perception have become One.
** Are you perceiving that you have become God ? . . .hmmmmmm
The Creator and the Created have merged. Unification has occurred. We are, I am, All of It is, ONE.
** and so, you’ve come to this conclusion with “Hoping to Believing to Knowing” ? hmmmmm
Do you understand what I’m saying here? I sounds like I’m on drugs, right?
** Or perhaps you need some kind of counseling, or just read the Bible (it really helps with hoping, believing and knowing !)
this next 12 months the year that the world itself changed forever.
** Guess what, that happens every single day, since the beginning of Time !
Remember today that you are not your Yesterdays.
** I like the saying “Yesterday is gone, tomorrow never comes. There is just today, and that is a gift, and that’s why they call it,The Present”

Dear SuzyW,
I am sending you love and peace and praying that your surgery goes well. I know it will.
Keep positive thoughts and it will turn out just like you want.
Thank you for all of the uplifting posts, by the way! They are always so delightful to read!
Love and Peace and Happy New Year,
michelle
p.s. make sure you eat lots of green vegetables after the surgery because it helps aid the tissue repair faster :^)
Re - SuzyW | December 30, 2007 10:11 AM
In my backyard/playground we alWays pray for those in need. If you don't mind ...
Father Yahweh, we call upon You, for one of your children in need, SuzyW/Susie Ohio. We know that You already know what is needed in this world and for Your children, but we "ASK" - for it is in the Asking that we receive, in the Seeking that we find, in the Knocking that the door is opened unto us. We call upon You to touch and heal her, make her whole, healthy and well, that she to may become a living testament to an all powerful God of Uncompromising, Unconditional Love ... Amen!
LUV 2 U / LUV 2 ALL /Have a Happy New Year !

I have just read the book "Home with God" and I loved it! It says a lot about what I have always believed was true about God and the afterlife and taught me a lot I did not know. I am on a spiritual journey right now and plan to grow better spiritually in 2008 and this book has already begun that plan. Thank you Neale for sharing your wisdom and experiences with the world to give people a better understanding of who God really is and what he wants us to know!
Happy new year, new beginnings and a new you to everyone!
Take care and God bless, Christy

** Just a tip from an old man I knew (98) He said things that grow above the ground are only for energy. Things that grow underground are for body building and repair. That would be all root vegetables, like potatoes, carrots, radishes,garlic, ginger, gensing etc, etc, etc ... BTW peanuts also grow below the ground, but are not really nuts, and they are high in protein !
This is also interesting
APIOS AMERICANA. "Groundnuts" are the only nut in the world that grows below the ground (peanuts are not nuts by the way!). The plant sends shoots into the earth and form pods. Allow this to develop for 2 months (the plant will turn yellow). It is a highly nutritious plant in that it has 2 1/2 times the protein of an egg (..which is considered by some to be the perfect protein).
I don't know whether there is any scientific evidence to support this, but this guy lived to be 98 ! Also Jack La Lane (98) says, when asked about his longevity "Don't eat anything man-made !" ... (I don't know where we get the idea that we can produce something more healthy than God !)

Thanks for the nice thoughts and nutrition advice!

Wisdum, are you talking about peanuts here? I am a new vegetarian, and am trying to learn more about protein sources. I'm told soy is good, only if it is fermented like MISO. And Michelle, I love vegetables!
Happy new year to you ALL!

Re - SuzyW | December 30, 2007 10:03 PM
Wisdum, are you talking about peanuts here?
** No, I just found out about "groundnuts" myself (that's how God works in my Life) The info is from a web site I came across, looking for nuts that grow below the ground, as I was trying to give you more info. I also found out that peanuts are not nuts. If you search APIOS AMERICANA. "Groundnuts" on the net, you will find a lot on them. It amazes me that this is another one of those best kept secrets ! "It has 2 1/2 times the protein of an egg (..which is considered by some to be the perfect protein)." (that's a wow! for me)
I am a new vegetarian, and am trying to learn more about protein sources. I'm told soy is good, only if it is fermented like MISO. And Michelle, I love vegetables!
** I love vegies too ! Did you know that the water that is on top of yogurt is all protein ? I used to pour that off for years ! Most people think that protein is meat, that is incorrect, protein is a collection of amino acids, you can check that out on the net also (I love this WWW, you can search almost anything, about anything !) Also Whey is also protein ... remember "Little Miss Muffet, sat on her tuffet, eating her curds and whey" You can buy whey in all health food stores, and even Wal-Mart and BJ's (cheaper there) I mix it in with my cerial, and even as a coffee lightener!(no trans-fat) You can put it in anything that you want to make higher in protein. There is another body builder called Creatine.

Wisdum and SuzyW,
when I had to have ACL surgery due to soccer injury, I was told by the doctors to eat lots of leafy green veges, and I think simply taste delicious.
Wisdum, thanks for the heads up about peanuts and things growing above ground and protein in general. It is interesting to think about how food sources affect us, our bodies and our minds. (Another miracle nutritional substance for me is B-100 complex vitamin capsules. And speaking of amino acids, you can buy the free form kind in the health food stores too, but get the complete).
That was a beautiful prayer, Wisdum. :^) thank you.
suzyW, I have been moving toward vegetarianism too. I still cook meat for everyone else. Have you ever tried Boca Burgers? They are sold in the frozen food section and are delicious and are made from soy. I think the trick with getting enough good protein is striving for "complete" protein like combining grains with legumes. I went to the health food store the other day and bought a jar of miso and sea vegetables (wakume or something like that!) which are still sitting in the refrigerator. I will have to really make those in 2008 as New Year's day is always reserved for Black Eyed Peas for luck in the coming year with the delectable "Hoppin JOhn"--a southern tradition!
Happy new year again everyone,
Love and Peace,
michelle

Wisdum,
**Hi Michelle, wutzup?
thanks for the heads up about peanuts and things growing above ground and protein in general.
**Your absolutely welcome !
It is interesting to think about how food sources affect us, our bodies and our minds.
Right on! I am literally being kept alive (I should be dead), by a regimine of whole foods and supplements. About three years ago I almost died, a victim of trans-fat (which the gevernment,health,and pharm industry always knew, but kept silent about for the "Lust for money" thing !And now still can't admit it, because they would be liable for all the deaths and extreme health costs !)
(Another miracle nutritional substance for me is B-100 complex vitamin capsules. And speaking of amino acids, you can buy the free form kind in the health food stores too, but get the complete).
** That is also a part on my self-proclaimed diet (I'm thinking about posting it on my Community page ... it surely can't hurt you !)
That was a beautiful prayer, Wisdum. :^) thank you.
** On my blog site, we have all kinds of people from Born agains, to Atheists, and we have a very successfull prayer rate ... Considering God's sense of humor, which nobody thinks is one dam bit funny, except God ! (and me too !) I think the trick I pull on everybody, is the same as I did here ... by putting the prayer here, I suckered everybody that read it, world wide(no matter what their religious affiliation, or none) to pray for that person (how cool is that !) BTW, my sign off is also a prayer (hah!)
