4-40. All that was Real before time began is also Real now. God's Love for you existed before time began. As such, God's Love for you is Real now and it will be Real forever. In this certainty, you can safely rest.
Eternity is not intelligible. Eternity is not a concept to be bantered about or a rationalization to be justified. It is not conditional, limited, temporal or conceivable. Eternity extends beyond all of the inherent bounds of perception, imbuing All That Is with its fundamental nature of applicability to everything, at all times and everywhere, without any aspect of Creation being at all restricted from accessing and Experiencing its Grace. However the emphasis on the transformation of individual experience into that which is universal in scope is of the utmost importance, for all that is believed to be personal, and thusly inapplicable to another Child of God, must be left behind if one is to expand beyond the singularity of experience, becoming increasingly able to Experience the Nature of Eternity not as a concept, but as a diffuse Reality that is ever-present and infinitely accessible. Nothing is denied Eternity, and no Child of God is asked or expected to be able to maintain any semblance of order or continuity absent its infinitely expansive support. Almost all that occurs within the world of form is conditional, and thusly is censured by the nature of rote patterns of expectations, all of which are based upon aspects of prior perception that are believed to be applicable to present-moment experiences. This is not to be faulted, for absent the ability to filter sensory information into massively interconnected webs of associative categorization, little sense of anything at all could be derived from the massive amounts of instances and occurrences that arise and dissolve constantly throughout all of time. However, the unconscious ability that all minds possess to exclude that which does not fit into any readily apparent pattern that has been previously experienced does have a deeply blinding effect, insomuch as it prescribes a certain level of attentionality for some instances while equally excluding others before they can even arise to the threshold of direct consciousness. All that is lost in this process is frequently devoid of any direct utility, and so no genuine lack of value occurs, but there can at times be a discarding of relevant experiential input that would otherwise be of great value to the observer. Lacking sufficient present-moment awareness, it is often the case that the “average” and sleeping Child of God will gloss over that which could be transformative, simply because it is so new and so emergent that their minds automatically label such inputs as irrelevant or so outlandish that they are discarded and thoroughly forgotten. Love is not as this, as the genuine Experience of Love bypasses the mind and proceeds directly to the heart, unraveling yet another glommed on layer of conditionality and subjectability to beliefs in limitations and impossibilities that the mind will frequently attempt to ascribe as some fundamental aspect of existence, when it is merely a belief structure that is learned and then repeated, endlessly and with no value at all. It is absolutely possible to reengage the mind in the service of the heart, allowing the natural instinct of genuflection towards the unlimited Nature of Love to reign as the most important and overriding impetus of all forms of perception and the basis upon which all decisions are evaluated and then undertaken, but this forms such a reversal of the “normality” of everyday thought patterns as they exist at this time that it is a rarely elected and even more infrequently employed reformation of consciousness. Yet its benefits are legion and infinitely transformative in what they can offer to an awakening Child of God, for while the certainty of the mind is forever circumspect and predicated upon the receipt of justification through evaluation of sensory input, the heart needs no such validation. The heart is always infinitely Aware of the Love of God, no matter how strong the disconnect between one’s heart and one’s mind has become through years of dissociative training, achieved through trusting one’s evaluative prowess and deriding instincts as being useless or inapplicable to all situational arisings, no matter how confusing or seemingly irrelevant they may be at the time of their first occurrence. At and in its essence, time is limited and limiting, simply because it progresses through certain patterns and it serves effectively to allow for all that can occur to be splayed out over time, rather than simply bunching up together in one great instant of unfolding, during which all that can be becomes manifest and then subsides again. Such an occurrence would be effective, in that less time would progress while all possibilities were explored, yet little direct transformation would occur for the Children of God who participated in such a tumultuous conflagration of probability, for they would benefit much more from having copious amounts of time to experience all that can be, as well as contemplating what such an array of potentialities might imply for them directly. Thus, Love waits in abeyance of all that is thrust up against it by errors committed within time, allowing all to unfold as it will, regardless of its innate utility or utter lack thereof. That which was Real before the necessity of time became manifest - and even such a statement is inherently limited and recursively self-defining, as there can be no necessity when no time can progress, let alone even “exist”, as much as time can be said to have an existence - will remain exactly as it was during all of the seemingly disparate instances of time that unraveled from its origin, remaining steadfast and Certain in a manner that this world of form in no way lends itself to becoming or maintaining. That you are the Beloved of God is Certain, and will never alter. That you may or may not, as of yet, be willing to accept such an infinite and eternally applicable Grace is not certain, simply because you are possessed of a Will that is Free, just as the Will of God is equally unrestricted. That you are able to be willing to transform the initial inklings of the veracity of this Truth into a Faith and with a Light that is Eternal has never altered - you are always and eternally possessed of the ability to shed all that is restrictive in any form, for it has always been only by your own hand and with your own election that you have become seemingly anything less than All That Is. Rest is an appropriate designator for what the transformation of experience in a time-limited and physically-oriented perspective will entail for you into the Experience of the Peace of God, for what is there to rail against or charge as being incorrect about Creation when you are Loved beyond all possibilities of limits, nay on even beyond all of time itself? What can you assert is incorrect about a Safety that is ultimate and eternally applicable, when such a reassurance can be yours to remember again, just as soon as you are ready to release all that you believe to be conditional about Creation? There is only Love, and all that is not of Love is not Eternal. That statement brushes up against the beginning of a release and a relief from unnecessary and unneeded suffering that is so great that that it will transform all that is restricted within your mind, allowing you to take ever further and greater strides back towards God and away from the prevarications and predilections of a mind beset only by its own presumptions of its True Nature. Rest as you wish, and when you wish, for there is nothing at all that can divest this world - or any other aspect of the Perfection of Creation - from the Love that was the Source of All That Is. You are an integral and indispensable aspect and act of this Love. You are not forgotten by God, no matter the extent to which you have believed it might be possible for you to forget your Creator. Such Grace this is, such infinite Beauty and such manifest Truth, now and always available, predicated solely upon the turning of your mind away from conflict and towards the infinitudes of certainty that your heart has retained for you, a gateway of infinite Light that was never closed - it was merely forgotten for just a very brief moment indeed.
