[Joanie]

Well, John. I will answer your first question like this. If you were to go into a room and pick out every item you thought would look good and lovely in another room, what would you do? Would you take the items that were beautiful? precious? markedly different from the rest that you already possessed? I dare say you would choose the ones that were meaningless and drab.

So, we have your choosing indescribably beautiful, precious, and markedly different objects to be placed, or repositioned, elsewhere for a later date. Well, what do we do now?

OK. Now we have fun. (smile) It comes to the time when we move our objects over to the next room. Some have a definite place for them and others do not. So, we place the ones that have a definite “home” and position them just so. The others we hold onto for safe keeping.

It is here I will say that others are now entering your room. What to do? Who will enter? Who goes astray and knocks something out of position? Do you allow them to touch or handle the objects? We see there are many variables when it comes to protecting one’s valuables. It is easy to place them there, but it is not so easy keeping them in one place for that long.

We see a long list of variables. They include:

1) Wandering off into the sunset.
2) Making decisions that suit others better than yourself.
3) Enjoying time for other things when it is the object at hand that requires attention.
4) Calculating how much risk is involved in arranging yourself around the objects vs. just being near them, with them, around them, in front of them, etc.

We see you are a bit confused. First, we must say that you are here to schedule events at certain times in your lifespan. You place them in various locations along the timeline so you can see how to help yourself grow and learn and possibly change for the better. If the objects, or events, that are placed on the timeline do not feel absolutely necessary to experience once you have stepped on that timeline spot, you can choose not to experience it.

Now comes the question about other factors. The “others” take it from a different set of rules. They come in to show you they are there, that they count, that they are here to be noticed, that they might want you to experience them. I dare say you have been seen in these scenarios when someone comes along and says, “Hey! Look at me! I am RIGHT here!” So, you look. You pay attention — because they made themselves known to you and they wanted your lovingkindness, attention, and purposeful mastery of a situation. I will define more what I am saying here. The person wants you to consider that they are worthy enough of being recognized. They want you to make a shift — a shift on your path — for the better. They ask you to choose whether you are able to go deeper into a problem with their being tagged along for assistance.

Now, we have the Master that comes to change the game plan. The object or event that was put in the new room now has the attention of a Master. The Master wishes to not only hold the object, but also discuss it, revel in it, and help you gain a better understanding of it. Why should you NOT ask for the Master’s guidance? Because you would like to remain exactly where you already are on your path along the journey. Take me, for example. If Joanie didn’t want my input, she would have thrown my ideas out from the moment I introduced myself to her. Then, her path on the journey would look quite different from how it does now. You see?

We all make up rules for our respective games we play here on Earth. If you and I wanted to collide and change the scenery, we most certainly could. And if you and Joanie wanted to add more variables so you both could grow, you could, as well. You see, we all move at a fast rate, unbeknownst to most who walk along in bodies here on Earth. It is the challenge each one faces to find a way to continue growing, shifting, changing as variables shift and sway with the breeze.

We find ourselves at your question about whether the final outcome of a scenario can be affected by multiple variables, for example winds, tides, moons, stars, etc. These “unforeseen” variables do play a plart in the outcomes of your respective plays. If we left out any other unforeseen variables, it is because we didn’t see them coming. (smiles) They, the unforeseen, come out of nowhere to the average person — the one embodied here on Earth. To you all, it is as if something hit you and you remark, “How could THAT have happened?” We tell you that it COULD happen, MAY happen, and WILL happen. There are so many forces unbeknownst to man/woman that they will be unable to comprehend the invisible players in the game here.

We would like to say that you are listening, yet you are not necessarily hearing us. We want you to know that although you have made some definite decisions about who, what, where, why and how your game will function, the rules do change when unforeseen variables are put into play.

Now, we wish to tell you that the answer to your third question has already somewhat been answered. What we do wish to say is that your memory is very good and serves you well, John. What about telling us the many ways you have made choices that went wrong/sour? THESE are the things we wish to help you with. You see, when one puts an object or event on the Path of One’s Life and the scenario backfires, it’s HERE that we get to examine how one could learn from this and determine whether another, more appealing outcome could have been directed, produced, acted and written. What do you say, John? Would you like to share a moment or moments so we can help you see where you could learn more so they never repeat again?

I believe this is where we bid you farewell for today. It is our utmost pleasure to serve you here, our dearest John. You are a Light to us and you shine on our visages, bringing us such Joy and laughter and good times.

With Love,

David and the Divine Ones

Please take the time to email friends and post on Book-of-Light, both on Joanie’s Healing Sessions and David’s Guidance regarding how you have come to notice, tremendously notice, that your interactions with others has opened up the possibility that these relationships are to work through past life issues in this present lifetime.”

This information is directed at you all: “Please, friends, consider looking at your friendships, relations with co-workers, loved ones, departed souls, and even pets, to see that they come into your life in order for you to learn and grow and shift and reconsider all that has transpired over the course of your lifetime here today.

Oh, John! What a perfect response! I see how you took this piece for what it was meant to do — to move one in the direction of, first and foremost, creative challenge of thought with respect to your present mindset. If we all stood in one place and did not move a muscle, we would feel lame and aimless. Aimless in this case would mean directionless. If we choose, instead, to move out of our present mindset to another viewpoint, we can challenge old ways, old traditions, and grow and expand.

You, my dear John, are not content with sitting OR standing in one place.

Now, with respect to your body. Your body is and is not following its own set of instructions in order to live and work and play. It, on the one hand, chooses to live independently of John and function as a well-oiled machine so John can go about his days. On the other hand, John’s body needs your input in order to carry out its tasks more efficiently.

So, I suggest you consider that you do, in fact, play a large role in the outcome of your body’s responsivity to all there is in relation to its workings. So, instead of feeling so far removed from its workings and goings on, you might want to consider knowing it as a friend of yours. You can acquaint yourself to it and it will be glad. (smile) As you get to know yourself this way, making the connection that it is actually your friend and not your foe, you can begin to alter the way you envision illnesses and their beginnings.

So, if you have an ache, you can say, “Hey, body! I found out I’ve got an ache. Can you help me with this? I need a little help from you.” Then, sit back, connect with your body, smile, and feel your loving body’s response. Put Love and Light from your heart into the ache. Then, thank your body, your Higher Self, God and all the Divine Ones who watch over you and dearly assist you daily in your healing. If you do this, you will find that aches such at the one you just addressed can simply disappear.

This is a matter of “mind-ing.” Mind-ing takes practice. We often see you all emotionally caught up in your aches and this does not serve you. Therefore, we believe that moving to the place of beliefs, in your minds, is where your power shifts and you gain a better sense of how to manage illnesses.

I take it you are here to tell me you have done this before and it has not worked. I resopnd to you, dear John, that we all have tried this, at first, and failed because the concept was not that we were very familiar with. I say to you that it takes practice — this mind-ing of illness, aches, pains, and so on.

I believe you will have questions for me as I am always here to serve you, my dear friend.

Blessings to you and your family and loved ones.

With Love,

David and the Divine Ones

What We Do For Ourselves and How We Can Be Even Better 3/28/11

How about the first time you found yourself in the middle of a storm? Yes, a storm. Well, when you find yourself in the eye of a storm it is very quiet and peaceful. The winds have died down and all the tumult has subsided — for the moment. Then, the winds pick up and you find yourself again faced with fury, anguish, longing, desirous lust and all the things that brought you to this stormy place. I say that you created your storm and that the storm didn’t just happen to fly in by you.

It’s here I’d like to challenge your beliefs. It is here I would like to offer my take on storms and their manufacturing. If we look off in the distance, can we sometimes see a spectacle taking place? I mean spectacles such as yourself in the midst of a longstanding argument with another, or a rift between you and another, or even a misunderstanding that occurred. Well, if you can envision a far off problem on the horizon, then we have set the stage.

Now, we come to storm creation. What does this entail and how does one get to manufacture one such storm? I will tell you that the storms that are generated are generated by you and that you see all that comes with the package: manipulation of the truth, electing to ignore options that will quell or abate its movement in any direction, the belief that a little bit of drama can’t hurt, the notion that all people have problems, the desire to hurt or anger another, the issue that some folks just don’t get it, the release of frustration by being cantakerous and allowing the brewing of the problem to play itself out for purposes that fulfull desires to hurt or destroy others, and the wish for everything to disappear so as it never happened in the first place.

I say all these possibilities for you to look deep inside yourself and envision just how you might create storm activity for yourself. I am not suggesting you do these things. And if you do do these things, I am not suggesting you utilize all of these methods of storm manufacturing. What I will say is that I believe that many of you have feelings of sadness inside and this sadness can make one imbalanced, veering off course.

Veering off course is what is to be addressed now. Shall we look at that? If you have ever been on a boat, you will know what it feels like to sail smoothly across the water. To veer off course is to go against what you are supposed to be doing, which is remaining in direct alignment with your purpose — your desire to be balanced and determined, despite what is happening around you. For those of you who wish to be in imbalance, this talk will not serve you. For you see, you enjoy stormy days and nights; they rile you, yet you fancy them, too.

If I were to take a guess as to how many times a person has chosen to listen to another for guidance instead of listening to their own internal guidance system, I would tell you that the number of individuals participating in this game of mind-tricks is astounding. You will see that you actually are able to move through storm manufacturing with others’ assistance. Yes, others can join you on the production line.

We see another variable here — the use of “anonymous donors.” What is meant by anonymous donors? Those who put in their two cents, but really haven’t been asked for help by the original “stormer.” We see donors everywhere. They come in the form of homemakers, giants in business, “looking glass experts” (you know — the ones who can see right through you), “triple fudge sundae experts” (the ones who offer “fatty” information, yet it doesn’t stick), and the “revelers” (the ones who cheer you on as you go upstream, sideways, or due North when South was your destination). I share these anonymous donor examples so you can see that you often bring in extra material to pad your pockets with more than what you were originally carrying. Thsi is not for me to say that what you bring into your life is bad or destructive. What I am saying is that instead of minimizing, refuting, or turning a situation around, you move it further to a place where it cannot be so easily rectified.

It is here that I will talk about your habits. The habits might include talking too much about it, generating steam by thinking too much about it, taking too much time in your day to replay it over and over again til you are blue, or making peace with it by ignoring it. These are common habits of the “stormer.” Do you see yourself here? If you do, then you are learning how you generate storms for yourself.

It is easy to forget, minimize, rationalize or just plain imagine that something else really occurred instead. Yes. It’s easier to do just that. Why? Because so many do not wish to feel discomfort. Why feel it? Because, as I shared in “How To Cure,” one must walk through fire in order to come out unharmed and more learned. One must consider choosing to feel pain in order to grow and shift and change and expand.

So, you have a choice. Do you engage all of these factors that contribute to storm building, or do you consider what is before you and address it head on? I say head on is the way to approach everything you do. For when you see what is before you, you can make decisions that are real and genuine and smart and just and everything that would help keep you in a place of balance and alignment. You see, you are really the only one who drives the ship, the vessel on the water course. You’re the one who gets to decide everything from water management to barnacle cleanup to hull washing. It’s you who gets to man/woman the boat and steer it in the direction of Higher Truth and Highest Goodness for your Self. When you choose to look at a problem head on, you will be able to make clear decisions that lead to happier outcomes. I say this so you might consider a brighter, more simple method to your daily managing of affairs.

“How simple,” you wryly respond. I answer you, “It is simple if you say it is, visualize a happier outcome, and believe that what you are envisioning came true for you. (These are the Laws of Creating Reality, which I discussed in “How One Can Manifest Their Healing.” When you apply those principles, you will be able to create happier outcomes as compared to when you engage negative factors that impede positive outcomes from manifesting.

We feel this is the time to stop as you can see how one is clearly able to produce more havoc than when they first started out on their daily journeying. We also see you have learned a bit regarding “How To Create The Perfect Storm.” It is for each of you to decide how you would like to ride out your problems: stormy or on due course — for Home.

With Love,

David and the Divine Ones

[Joanie]

John,

I see that you are in pain and this is part of your daily experience. You must know, first, that you are greatly loved and we wish you healthy days and nights, always.

Now, let’s see if we can envision a John that is pain free, shall we? Let’s imagine that the man who has many illnesses no longer suffers so greatly. Let’s imagine a time when you are actively happy and your body is reeling with excitement when it considers another day out somewhere. So, with that vision put out there for you, let me say that you can also imagine not feeling badly about your situation. You can imagine going to the doctor and having him or her tell you that you are doing the best that you can do. If it pleases you, you can also imagine being in a place where no one even discusses your illnesses and you are left completely responsible for the outcomes, OK?! (smile)

So, if you were in charge of your health, might you consider imagining being well? Well on all fronts? If you can imagine this, then, let me say that this is truly possible. I do not recommend you stop medicine or doctor appointments. What I will say is that you can begin to lighten your load by taking new steps in the healing process.

“What would that look like?” you ask. I will tell you that you can now begin learning how to heal yourself without anyone doing it for you. You can begin by believing this is so. Then you can trust that the poiwer of the mind is a great tool for healing. If we all believed this, there would be no health problems.

So I say to you, John, that this is possible and you can envision healing yourself if you choose to do so. First, be clear about what you want to say. Then, when you state it, make sure that what you are envisioning is exactly how you wish it to be. If you wish to be pain free, then state this. If you wish to be less dependent on medications, state this. Whatever you state, say it with emotion from the depth of your heart. This helps move the energy along so the idea or concept can manifest itself.

So John, what do you think of this idea — the power to change your present state of being? It sounds pretty neat, yet you appear doubtful. So I will say again that this concept — the concept of manifesting your reality, or Reality Creation, is more powerful than any tool you have ever held before.

If you wish to hold this up to a mirror, you will find there is no hidden message. It is straight up David talk (smile). I repeat, it’s just me sharing what I Know from Here. (smile)

I bid you Happy Creating, my dear friend!

With love, always,

David and the Divine Others

Passion and How it is Involved in the Manifestation of One’s Healing 3/12/11

One need not be an expert in the way they go about living their lives to the fullest. They need only have the determination to be a good student. If one were to examine all they are capable of, they would find that they have more to contribute to their own life’s chapters than they are aware of. If an individual is unaware of their capabilities, they will not fourish to the extent that they wish to. They will wither somewhat on their journey and find that all they had been looking for did not, in fact, come to be for them.

I say that one can look beyond what they see and recognize that there are hidden aspects in their person that need awakening. This awakening of the spirit is essential if one is to move more fully into their experience in their current life. Without the realization that they have these capabilities — the capabilities to grow and flourish — they will remain at a status quo.

It is here that I wish to discuss the concept of Passion. Passion is a word that is associated with physical desire. I am not referring to this idea. I am, however, wishing to discuss Passion as it relates to “those embodiments of desire that can bring one or move one forward from a place of rest to a new place of growth and understanding.” Passion lies deep within us. We all have a need, a yearning for more. Yet some are hidden from their own passionate calls for more. They do not know of this place where their Passion resides and, because of this, they do not call it forth. If there is no place for it, it cannot exist.

So, I have decided to call upon you, dear reader, to go deep inside yourself to find a place that might be Passion’s “house.” Your house lies in a place close to your heart where Love resides. You see, Passion and Love are genuine friends. They need each other. Truly they do. When you encounter something or someone you truly love, you might become passionate about it or about them. The house “around the corner” from the House of Love is the House of Passion. Enter this place and welcome yourself. You might feel like a stranger, yet you have been here before in your unknowingness. I wish to share that you might find it a bit strange doing this exercise, but it is very important if you wish to learn about Passion, feel it, and use your Passion to manifest healing.

As you walk through the House of Passion, come to a light and turn it on. You will be delighted at what your eyes gaze upon! You will have encountered your dear friend, Passion! Introduce yourself and ask how you can better meet its acquaintance. Within a short time, you might feel its fury, its deep longing for more within your soul. (I have found that your honoring these deep feelings is important. Passion comes across as unbalanced, yet in viewing Passion objectively, one finds that these feelings are perfectly in balance — perfectly “passionate.”)

When you have felt the feelings of deep yearning for more, ask what you can bring with you from the House back to your soul’s “surface” — the place where your outer world resides. You will be guided beautifully as to what to take with you for the sole purpose of making magical healing happen later in your days ahead. Go away with your prizes — your gems of wisdom and return from whence you came. Adorn your spirit with the desire for more. You will understand then that your journeying into the House was necessary in order to learn Passion’s secrets.

As you awaken to the realization that Passion plays an essential part in creating your healing, you will see that your throughts about wanting to feel better will be added with feelings of want, as well as of mirth. The combination creates that of Hope and Joy. When one looks upward as they visualize their healing, they tend to draw healing towards themselves. Passion’s role is key in that if one is not positively hopeful about their desired outcome, they will not be able to see their desired outcome create itself. One need, instead, motivate their Passion in order to create their healing. Pure and simple. Without Passion, healing is questionable.

You ask, “I have experienced healing and have never felt Passion.” I answer this, “The Passion you felt was deeply set back in your consciousness. You were unaware of the role it played in your healing.”

I offer the “Passion concept” for you to have the opportunity to raise it to the surface if it lay motionless for you elsewhere. With the more conscious awareness of Passion and its role in the healing process, you can be better able to manifest better outcomes and see your desires play out how you wish them to.

If this is something you wish in your present journey, I recommend doing this alone at first. Sitting quietly in a comfortable place is a good start. Remove all distractions and follow the aforementioned exercise. If you wish to contact Joanie about this process, please do as she is able to guide one through an exercise such as this.

I wish you much happines as you journey here. It is a wonderful life to have — a gift to treasure always. May you be blessed with finding the Passion that motivates your heart and mind so that your healing is completely and utterly breathtakingly fruitful.

With Love,

David and the Divine Others

How One Can Manifest Their Healing

1/3/11

This is a beginning of a time when we shall see things more clearly, more evidently than before. You will learn that all is spoken for reasons that you weren’t acquainted with before. All your past experiences were interwoven in time with other ideas and manifestations of conscious thought. You will soon be able to encounter new ways of using your brain so that you can manifest more for your Higher Good. Without even thinking about something, you will be able to prepare your table smoothly and effortlessly and accomplish all you desire within what would appear as a flash to you. Remembering that you are a powerful Creator Being will help you reach these outcomes successfully.

I tell you this because this is soon to come for you. You will need to understand this concept first, however.

If you wish for a certain outcome, you need not think about it much — you just need to focus your attentnion and let the process unfold Divinely.

This way is different for you because you are used to thinking and doing and reading and listening and (on and on and on…).

I say this lovingly, yet sternly because this lesson is a difficult one to master. We have all had to learn this lesson. It is as a baby must learn to crawl and then walk, so should you need to learn how to manifest your creations wisely and quite effortlessly.

Do you have any questions?

Joanie: How soon after I put my focus of attention on a desired outcome does it take for my manifestation to appear?

David: This depends on what you have asked for, how strong is the desire, whether this is for your Highest Good, whether you truly wish the outcome, how realistic the outcome is in relation to your present set of circumstances, and how clear you are with your stated objective. Do you see there are many variables that affect your outcome?

Joanie: Yes, I do. I have another question folks might ask you. Why does one not receive what they have asked for?

David: They are not receiving possibly because it is not for their Highest Good. They do not see themselves as worthy, perhaps. Their self-diminishment is the obstacle between themselves and their prize. Their intention wasn’t strong. Their stated objective was not clear. They were not open to allowing it to be received.

Joanie: I see there are many reasons here. Do you have recommendations for others who wish to heal and manifest a healing state? Many people wish to start anew or revise how they are asking for health and healing.

David: I suggest that one sit quietly and ponder why they wish for something. What is their goal? Visualize the goal and see yourself being this way. Being new and fresh and healthy and wise and well and wonderful. By being in this future state, you can actually transport yourself to this new reality. One’s new reality is the focal point that draws the person there until they are one with their creation. It is a matter of practice and refinement. You are living in an age where things are not expected to simply appear without much arduous effort. One believes this is work — that this is quite difficult to achieve. In fact, it is really quite simple after you recognize how one can be an obstacle to their receiving their desired outcome. Clarity of focus is essential. Letting go is necessary so as not to push the effort — we in the Universe are here to aid in your efforts, too.

Joanie: So, there is a certain amount of Divine Assistance that plays a part in healing outside our own manifestation efforts?

David: Very much, yes. There are assistants assigned to everyone. You call them spirit guides. They are your gut instinct that drives you this way or that, depending on whether you are listening. Many make decisions regarding what they wish to change that are not for their Highest Good. Guides aim to connect the person with that part of themself that wishes to feel better. It is each individual’s task to walk steadily, think clearly, and live healthfully according to the values they possess. Balance is essential. We guides attempt to connect with you in order to bring you to a balance point of knowing and seeing and feeling and listening. When one is in balance, whether they are connected with their guide(s), they can achieve new levels of health and happiness. This is healing. This is what is meant by living!

Joanie: Can you talk a bit about whether one must feel passionate about a desired outcome in order for it to manifest?

David: I can share that the feeling of passion can move the energy along in a way that is direct, flowing and steady. The concept of passion is for another discussion.

Joanie: OK. Please talk about one’s feeling unworthy of healing, whether it be conscious or unconscious, and how this is an obstacle in the healing process.

David: This all folds under self-diminishment. One must work through issues of inferiority, self-blame, guilt, unforgiveness, despair, fear and shame. These are all ways one diminishes their Self. Whether the work is done with a therapist, friend, partner or healer, these issues are necessary to be addressed for the healing of one’s spirit. Manifestation for one’s Higher Good may be put aside as the healing of self-diminishment is of foremost importance.

I see this is a bit circular, so let me clarify. One must be in a state of balance. Guides are here to assist in helping one become more aware of imbalance and the steps needed to move towards balance. Self-diminishment is an obstacle towards manifesting. The aforementioned aspects of self-diminishment need be addressed to bring balance and harmony to the individual. Blocks will be eliminated. When one is in balance and feels worthy, manifestation comes with greater ease and enjoyment.

Joanie: What if a person wishes to manifest balance, as well as the elimination of self-diminishment on all levels?

David: Then their focus of attention is simple: “Please restore me to balance.” Or, “Please remove all obstacles that contribute to my self-diminishment.”

Joanie: This is very simplified, yet what we spoke about earlier sounds more complicated.

David: The readers will understand my words. They will know that healing takes time and there is some effort that must be expended in order to move through fire. “No pain, no gain,” as you say. Yet, this task is not really about pain as it is about the discomfort of moving from Point A to Point B. For most folks, this is experienced as painful.

Joanie: I have known this to be true.

David: Do you see how one can manifest their healing?

Joanie: Yes, I do.

David: Then this will be enough for today.

Joanie: Thank you. Your words are clear and powerful. I know they are offered with love.

David: As always, with love.

[Joanie]

Hi everyone,

I was guided to post some pieces that I channeled from David. It is at this time that they are to be shared with you:

1/2/11

It has been many ages of pain for many people who reside on Earth. They go through their various life phases and are unaware of what is happening to them and through them. All the while they sit and wait for something to come along and cure them. They, in fact, are their very own cure.

How to Cure

Curing is a term that you use frequently, yet no one seems to be able to show what they mean by the term. Many individuals who state they are cured have simply found rememdies to allay fears or diminish symptoms. What is wrong with this concept that is so terribly misconstrued is that to “cure” is to walk through the fire unharmed and be stronger than before. This does not sound simple, I know. You want to hear something easy and more understandable. You long to be offered a magic pill or instrument or potion that will bring about Divine healing without moving much of a muscle. Again, this is understandable. You came here to experience pain(s) and your burdens grew too many. How could one walk through fire unharmed and come out stronger on the other side? I will tell you:

Imagine you are in a meadow and the breeze is blowing against your face. You feel no pain, just the pressure of the wind. Then suddenly a gust comes along and you are thrown off your feet. You feel hit and assaulted by this sudden assault. What to do with the feelings surrounding this? One might curse the wind. One might put their fists up in rage and shout angry epithets. One could become fearful of sudden short surprising moments. All are possibilities.

If we looked at another way of handling this, we could find a way to prevent ourselves from becoming hurt– becoming a victim. It would entail some creative thinking, stemming from the belief that we create our reality, we can harbor feelings and they can either work to our advantage or disadvantage, and that there are forces at play that are guiding us for growth on many levels of the soul.

What would it take to change our thought patterns? Does one desire a better outcome? Each person gets to choose the path they take in their soul’s health and happiness. Why would someone choose a different path? Because the path they are on is leading them to chaos, to sadness, to illness — dis-ease — and, therefore, to their ultimate demise. Demise in this context would mean their soul’s diminishment of vibrancy and aliveness.

Joanie: So, what would you suggest, David?

David: You have the ability to reason with yourselves and others. This is a gift that has been given to you. You came here by choice and can return by choice. Why not make choices regarding the quality of your existence?

Joanie: This is not easy for many.

David: What one does with this information is entirely up to them. They see a car coming and they jump out from the middle of the road. Simple. Other scenarios might not be as cut and dry, but you see the point. One can choose at every turn, every step. This is the key to curing oneself.

Joanie: We can choose to heal.

David: Yes. This is what I am saying to you. If a person does not feel well, they can choose to feel better. They can make decisions that are for their betterment, for their soul’s health. Happiness is a choice. So is health. So is misery. So is uncertainty. So is salvation. Do you see? This is my message to you on this day.

Joanie: Thank you, David, for this powerful and clear message.

David: I know there will be people who will answer, “Easier said than done.” I will reply, “This is a choice — to say, ‘It is easier said than done.’ One chooses to make their road to healing difficult if they believe this to be true. ‘This is easier than one thinks’ is another way one can choose to approach healing.”

Joanie: I see that this is about choice. We choose whether we wish to heal. We choose our illnesses and our burdens.

David: That is why I am here to share a way out — a way through the fire to feel stronger on the other side. There is simple beauty in healing. If you go inside your heart you will know this beauty.

Joanie: I have been to this place…

David: Then ask your readers whether they will choose to walk through fire unharmed…

Joanie: I will. I will ask them this very question.

David: Thank you for allowing me the entry point to share my Knowing for your planet’s healing.

Joanie: Your welcome, David. I offer myself to you as a channel and healer in Service of All That Is. I love you and thank you for your assistance.

David: Until our next meeting. I love you, too, dear friend.

Joanie: Dear readers, might you consider walking through fire unharmed?

Hi John,

The Law of Attraction is a spiritual concept. It is based on the premise that what one thinks about and “emotionally charges” with desire will come to fruition. The thought can create the form. For example, if you desire to own a cat, you visualize owning a cat and add your feelings of desire for this companion.

Your desired outcome is hinged upon certain factors:

– Whether you have asked on behalf of yourself or someone else
– The strength of your desire
– Whether this is for your Highest Good
– Whether you truly wish this outcome
– How realistic the outcome is in relation to your present set of circumstances
-How clear you are with your stated objective

If you do not receive what you wished to attract or create in your life, it may be due to these variables:

– The object or concept or situation is not for your Highest Good
– You believe, whether consciously or unconsciously, that you are unworthy of receiving the desired outcome
– Your intention wasn’t strong
– Your stated objective wasn’t clear
– You weren’t open to allowing it to be received

The “mentality” needed for utilizing the Law of Attraction involves:

– Sitting quietly and pondering why you wish for something. What is your goal?
– Visualizing the goal and seeing the object, concept or situation fully in its future state. By BEING in this future state, you can actually transport yourself to this new reality.

This takes practice. If you embrace the Law of Attraction and believe that you can create your reality — your experience via your thoughts — you are already into the game! With clarity of focus and not pushing the effort (I like the expression: You cannot push the river), you will find yourself experiencing many synchronicities with respect to what you wished for and what appeared on your doorstep later.

Happy Attracting!

John,

Your response was perfect in and of itself. I am markedly impressed by your curiosity, as well as your love of learning. Keep exploring all facets of the life experience as you know it now. You will find gems coming ’round every corner for you each time you peer around a corner.

May your newfound gems of learning shine brightly on your path.

Forever a friend in learning,

David

[Joanie]

John – The One who brings about change in us all because he writes from his heart,

I meant no harm when I responded in this way. Joanie is smiling now as she knows I was being very playful with her. We have this type of relationship and it is one of open conversations and very amusing discoveries. Lessons are sometimes learned through humor and jest.

Please know that the words that I bring forth are truly and Divinely inspired. I mean to illuminate points for the sake of learning, and teaching these concepts sometimes involves going to places of greater resistance. So, in Joanie’s case, she can take a “bat swing” hard. I mean hard!

You see, John, the guide that is with you offers you pieces that resonate with your being — your personality. I would be safe to assume that the humor I exhibited here would not be the type of interaction you would prefer receiving from your guide. Instead, you would probably like messages and signs that are a more “unique fit” to who you are in relation to learning and seeing things in a new perspective. Each person’s guide assignment has been carefully chosen and the matches are completed when both parties agree that the decision is a good one. Work begins at the pace that the soul wishes to set. Options for learning opportunities can be created before incarnation, as well as afterwards. We see both before incarnation and after incarnation planning essential for the soul’s growth.

Joanie takes things quite literally at times. It is I who illuminates her path with shining gauntlets for her to be able to laugh or rest. She works very hard each day and my brightening it with loud and raucous ranting of this nature pulls her away from her tendency to be in a still and serious place. I help keep her in balance when she goes there.

So, you see, dear John, that my way with her is truly a loving way of interrelating with her. If she could not handle this manner of relating for learning’s sake, I wuld not feel right offering her guidance in this manner.

I so humbly respect your words. I see you cherish your friend. She knows you are a dear and she appreciates your kind, thoughtful, and caring words on her behalf. Therefore, please accept these words as they are offered to you sincerely and genuinely.

With Light, Love and Friendship to You,

David

[Joanie]

Well, folks. This is where I have to say that I truly have fun with Joanie. She is a laugh riot when it comes to asking me questions. I love her dearly and all who are reading this must know that she is a brilliant Worker in the Light. She thoroughly tickles me with question upon question. It is my job to keep her informed so she is a very knowledgeable person here. So, with that introduction, I want to share what she recently asked me:

Joanie asked, “David, please let me know: ‘Of the books that I own, which ones should I read in their order of importance? I would like to read what is most important first.’ “
Well I found this incredibly funny because all books are important and I do not know what is important to Joanie. I know what is important to me.

Here is the lesson: If you find yourself stuck and you ask for guidance, who do you ask? Your friend or neighbor or fiance or lover or apartment-mate? Or do you ask yourself what YOU think?

I ask this because most often we look outside for answers to certain questions that oftentimes lie within us.

So, Joanie has allowed me to put this out there for all of you because she is, well, let’s say “a good sport.” I really admire her spirit. So, this is my response to her:

READING:

Please read the following in this order —

I’M OUT OF MY ROUTINE AND I WANT TO GO BACK TO THE WAY THINGS WERE — ORGANIZED YET FRETFUL, SCARED OF COMMITMENT YET WAITING FOR THE PERFECT MATE, TIRED OF LIVING THIS WAY YET SO GLAD ABOUT IT, AND FUNNY THAT THINGS GOT SO COMPLICATED. DID I MAKE THIS HAPPEN?! by Tell Me Another Reason Why Things Didn’t Work Out As Planned

I hope that you all see that the flavor of this response is not like any I have ever given Joanie. She understands that it is best to ask herself a question first before looking outside herself.

I wish you all many blessings of Peace and Happy Intentional Loving,

David

[Joanie]

David repsonded to John’s question: Do you have a favorite place to go and relax?

“I do, dear John. I do. I love to be with my friend, Serena, who is my spirit-in-love-mate. We travel to destinations that are beyond the realms of your imagination. She and I concur that the most fabulous journey we have taken was to a place called Occipital 9. That is WAY past Jupiter, near Saturn, and around the bend from Uranus. This destination point finds us many times in wonder and awe of all things that exist in this universe. When we travel to this place, we are taken by a sense of contentment, Truth of What Is, and the Knowing that we are together for a Divine reason. We cherish being here and we hope to return there soon. When we decide to return, we will have a spectacular vision from there of your Earth. We can see you from all destination points, yet it is from this vista that we thoroughly enjoy our being there when you are here. Does this make sense? All we have to do is look at your world and know that all is well and good.

We see you struggling through this Knowing of All That Is, yet we do not wish for you to feel that you must Know this all at this time. There is SO much for you to learn about that you must know that you can pull in some, sit back and relax in your un-Knowing. We will take care of what you need to know before you return to us (smile). And when you return, you will have SUCH a glorious time seeing all these wonders of Creation (smile).

With Love and Devotion,

Hi,

I couldn’t agree more with Zingdad. John, you are right on target and your words resonate strongly with me. David came through and passionately shared:

This is where I come in and add that the words being spoken here about rescuing and healing are perfect in that they allow for others to consider that what they are to do instead of “rescuing” is to “allow.” If one ALLOWS, then another can choose to SHIFT their energies to another framework. When one pulls back from their tendency to rescue and chooses instead to take this allowing stance, not only are they refraining from a drama that serves neither themselves nor another, but they also permit both themselves and the other the freedom to continue being in the same place they found themselves in. This is not to say that one must ignore another and allow them to drown. Now, that would be foolish! I am saying that allowing another to flounder a bit is important for their soul’s growth opportunity.

Why do people find floundering so uncomfortable? Because it involves pain, and pain is what most others fear. We believe that you should be aware that pain is extremely important a concept to experience in order to learn many great lessons. Without this expansion of one’s present state, one would remain stagnant and one would become immobile in their life’s experience of all that is for you here on Earth.

So, I say that instead of fearing pain, one may consider accepting this as an aspect of the human experience. It is part and parcel with other things that one faces in life. If one wishes to feel Peace, they place themselves in a peaceful environment. Then they experience all that is part of Peace within what they are enrapt in at that moment. If one wishes to experience Joy, they might place themselves in a situation that would bring on the experience of this Joy concept. The same would be true involving the desire to experience Pain and all that one can learn from this aspect of the human experience. If one chooses to shift themselves out of the “pain phenomenon,” they are short-changing themselves of a vast array of life lessons — everything from joyful abandon afterwards to silence to shifts in beliefs to recommendations of books to read to genuine delight to remorse to acceptance to believing in oneself and all that comes with that (!) to everything one could imagine one could learn after experiencing something as painful. Why would one want to eliminate all these wonderful experiences that can flourish within one’s life just because they have fear?

“I will continue to support one’s choices, whatever they decide in their moments of truth.” “I will accept whatever my loved one decides, as their path is not mine.” “I will continue to walk alone, as I see myself separate and different from another.” “I see all on my journey as beloved, and I send them my healing Love and wishes for brighter days ahead.”
You see, when one offers another these blessings, they are not only affording another the space to live, breathe and work within their respective framework, but they are also allowing them to be the powerful creator being without interruptions and interferences of the “rescuer kind.”

When one experiences their own dramas, they can breeze through their pain at a different rate — at a level that is unhindered and not laden with another’s mark. The “breezing” is a metaphor for a breeze that is soft and airy without particles of dust blowing through it. The rescuer offers particles to a breeze, and without the rescuer at hand, the breeze is clearer and lighter and unblemished. THIS is the type of pain that is optimal to be experienced for one’s soul development. Then one can “breeze” thorugh and feel as though they were able to learn the lessons by themself. This is more powerful an experience.

We would like you to know that the power in the pain experience is unlike any other. This is why you have chosen to experience life here in a physical body. You have forgotten this as the Veil is before you. When you return, you will remember how you craved the pain as it brought you ecstatic revelations. We know this might not resonate with many and we also know that this might confuse many. However, we offer it to you in this inscription for you to remember why you are here and how you may Serve yourself and others with respect to the “rescuer drama.”

Thank you for taking your time to listen to our words. We offer them with Love and Devotion to you all.

David and the Divine Others
