4-41. When you are ready to see the beauty of all of Creation reflected in a single flower, you will be ready to behold everyone you meet as a reflection of the Love that God forever has for us all.
That which is of a surface level of reflection is rarely that which is equally ascribable to the depths of the infinite Beauty of Creation. The analogy of the flower and the Love of God is simplistic, yet powerful in that a flower is an immediately obvious beautiful aspect of Creation, one that appears to be far less functional than it is aesthetically pleasing to the eye. Yet even its functionality is potent indeed, allowing for a cradling of its supplicants, providing them with nourishing nectar while they carry its pollen across so many unknown fields and vistas. The flower is a simpler example than some, because it is so very clearly a creation of beauty. Yet should that be the definitory schema that is solely employed for the purposes of evaluation and recognition of the infinite Beauty of All That Is? Should that which is of the surface be all that is regarded, thusly ignoring all that is functionally robust but visually repugnant? Such a manner of judgment serves not to reveal all that is the hidden beauty of the interrelationships and conjoined purposes of the myriad webs of interconnectedness that support so much of that which lives on this planet, for the utility and necessariness of the decomposers is equal to that of the flower, even if the slime molds and biofilms of the world of nutrient recyclers seem so very repugnant indeed. Such simplistic rejections of beauty in all of its forms serves not the observer or the observed, for so very much is lost when a singular process of judgment is employed and all that is not immediately capable of meeting its requirements is then cast aside, wholly out of hand and without regard for the more subtle utilities that are absolutely necessary components of a healthy and functional ecosystem. So too are the aspects of the Children of God, their auspices often unrecognized and their alignments with infinite Beauty, disregarded when they are not readily apparent and in a state of conformation with standards that are abstract and arbitrary indeed. It is not with eyes that All That Is can be Seen, for the very limited section of the spectra electromagnetic radiation that physical eyes can resolve is tiny indeed. In the same manner, rejections of revelations that are accessible only through the heart serve not the reviler of their opportunities, nor the objects of scorn that they turn away from, for all that lives is a reflection of a Beauty of Perfection that has no limitations. Cursory and surface level distinctions and delineations of acceptability and rejectibility are useless in the extreme, for they vary with the ages and can never be relied upon to present anything at all that is a direct reflection of the Love of God or the Perfection of Creation. That a flower is readily apparent as a beauty that all can enjoy is easily accepted, yet the depths of the hearts of many of the Children of God do not always give up their secrets and potent lustre with quite with the same rapidity or simplicity of presentation. Indeed, a great many now incarnate Children of God believe themselves devoid of any Light at all, and so will actively seek out the shadows of their own minds, believing beauty and acceptability to be the ambit of others - never to be in alignment with themselves or their creations. Such is a tragedy indeed, for no Child of God is exactly the same as another and all are capable of expressions of joy and creations of Love that are not simply unique - they are inexpressibly invaluable. Freedom is not found in massive financial wealth, unassailable good health or hoards of adoring friends, all clamoring for a moment of your attention. Freedom is ever-present and eternally accessible, but it arises from within - never as some form of conditionality with that which is, or is not. Beauty is not of the body or of the mind, for both will alter as time passes, while you heart remains just as certain of its own innate value and worthiness of the Love of God as it has been since the “time” before time began to unfurl as a great walkway of infinite possibilities and all of their constituent expressions. That which you withhold from yourself you will be unwilling to see in others. Note that you are never unable to see that which remains seemingly hidden - you are always possessed of the ability to look beyond all presupposed limitations to See the essence of another Child of God. But you will be steadfastly unwilling and so you will not See that which is as it is, for you will be continuously creating your inner perceptual world as a reflection of what you believe to be true, rather than what is actually the Truth of Love. This is not a condemnation of your election or a rationale to be used in abrogation of your innate responsibility to accept what it is that you have chosen to see - it is merely the reality of limited and self-similar perception, now effected in form and for the purposes of supporting a worldview that is comfortable and generally unchallenged by almost all that occurs in the world of form. But are you satisfied with just this? It is enough to see what you believe you wish to see of the world, and then to abandon all that could be in favor of the comfort and security of prejudging all that might arise, so that all opportunities to look beyond the fundamental, inherent and inalterable limitations of your ego become the final summation of all that you believe possible, even as an unimaginably more vast world simply passes by your fleeting and unfocused gaze? These are your elections, but much more than you expect turns upon what you choose, for you are possessed of the ability to transform seeing with the judgments of the mind into the Sight of the heart, one that excludes and presumes nothing at all, so that the Beauty and Lightness of Creation can be recognized as existing in all things, at all times and with regard to all of the other Children of God that you share space with upon the face of this world. They are not dissimilar from you. If you were to step inside of their liminal and unlimited heart-space for just the briefest of instants, much would be unfamiliar. But the love that they have known, both that which was received and that which they freely gave - that would be infinitely more intimately familiar than your mind has any ability to conceive of or express in any form at all. Love binds all that is Love to Love in a Perfect reflection of the Love of God, for all that is of the Beauty of Creation is alive and vibrant within the annals of your heart. You are not asked to be circumspect in your application of your innate ability to look beyond all barriers and to see beyond all limitations - these are great and mighty abilities indeed, and they can transform all that appears to be repugnant or rejectable within the world of form into yet another unique and infinitely important expression of the Beauty that is innate and inseparable from Creation, from God and from the Truth of Love. Seek not to be shown all that is Real in a manner that has direct reflection in form, for no matter the immense variety of manners that form can occupy, it is not at all a sufficiently vast vehicle for all of the expressions of the Beauty of Creation to be manifest within. There is so much more than just the surface level presentations of any other Child of God. Great wells of love and unexpressed joy remain hidden in the depths of their hearts, all of which are gloriously and intensely beautiful, no matter how much their possessors desire to keep them hidden, lest they be “lost” in a manner that the ego presents as possible but that God assures will never occur. No Child of God is a greater or lesser expression of the Love of God - all are equal and maximal, in that they are all infinite in scope and unlimited in their ability to present what it truly means to be the Beloved of God. Seek to see them not as their surface might appear, but look again with the perception of your heart, and all that is of sight will be transformed into the Seeing of the soul, allowing you to Know them as they are, and to Accept them as God does. They are all unique and beautifully different flowers of Love that spring up from the fertile loam of the Heart of God. Allow their Light to blossom before your Awakening sight, and you will know that they are just as Beautiful as you have always been and will always be.
