When Dreams become reality.

We can add all kinds of meaning to the word "Dream", and in most cases there are no right or wrong descriptions.  We are dreamers each and every one of us.  Some people will walk out their dreams, others will simply set them aside and never do anything with them.  The decision as to what to do with your dreams is entirely up to you.  What I'd like to do today is encourage you to run with your dreams, and see where they take you.  If I'm correct, and let's face there are times when I'm not, but if I'm correct, your dreams are going to take you to the exact place you are supposed to be, and at the time you are supposed to be there. 

What some people don't realize is that we dream all day and night.  The dreams that occupy our mind while we sleep are no different than the dreams we have as we walk down a street, or simply navigate the isle at the grocery store.  Dreams come from our subconscious mind, and our subconscious mind comes directly from our Creator.  So if this is the case, and it is, then what we dream is often guidance for our life, for our journey, for our destinies.  Now we can all admit that often we have some pretty bizarre dreams, but the dreams I'm talking about are the ones that tend to motivate us, encourage us, light up our paths, and bring us peace, because we know that we long to have what we dream about. 

Sadly there are many people who discount dreams, as they feel they are unattainable.  I guess this leads me to ask this question.  If the Creator of the Universe, your Creator gives you a dream, is that dream there simply to play with your mind, or as some people feel just dabbling the carrot in front of you, never ever being able to obtain it?  God does not work this way, and the sooner you get rid of this thinking, then the sooner you can begin to go after those dreams.  I'll be the first to admit that I have always been a dreamer. I have lofty dreams, sometimes to lofty some would say.  That's OK, I like having big dreams, and I'm at a point in my life where I expect each and every dream to come to a conclusion, a conclusion that was always meant to be.  

I'm a firm believer that every dream is a stepping stone to our destiny.  If one were to look at each dream, draw a line for each and every one, it is going to give you a guide to certain things. Now many will not believe this line of thought, and that's fine.  In the end we are all going to learn who was right and who was wrong.  I'm just of the mindset that why would we be given a dream just to have the rug pulled out from underneath us?  That is not in God's character, it is simply man's attempt to play with your mind.  When you are walking down the street thinking about having the home of your dreams, the nice car, the ability to help humanity out, my guess is it brings joy to you.  When we think of our dreams we have a never ending smile on our face.  Just for a moment think about what dreams do for us.  Dreams bring us joy. Dreams create in us a hope, a desire, a will to go on.  Why would something that has the ability to bring us joy, peace, hope, and enjoyment, be from any other source other than our Creator?  It's time that we begin to accept that we are being given a blueprint so to speak of things that are meant for us, that we should be going after.  If one can accept this premise then you are well on your way to walking out your dreams.  

It is time we begin to realize that dreams have substance.  It's time that we begin to accept the fact that dreams have been placed in us because there are things we are supposed to do with them, and those things are all about your destiny, your reason for being here in the first place.  Now you can argue with me all day long about dreams, about their meaning, but the energy you expel on that argument could be put to better use going after those things that are meant for you.  Too many people have buried their dreams deep, deep, and I do mean deep inside of themselves for fear of what others would think.  Some are afraid to express to others what is in their heart to do out of fear of what they might say, or even what they might think about them.  Screw those who discount another's dreams simply because they seem out of reach.  There is nothing out of reach to our Creator.  If you have been given a dream, then you will have, at the right time, everything you need for that dream to become a reality.  

My dear friends the time has come to embrace your dreams, accept that they are in you for a very specific reason, and without regard to a specific timeline, know that they will come to pass.  Faith says that it is done.  We may not see the end result yet, but faith says there is an end, and we will benefit from what the end brings to each and everyone.  There is no limit to dreaming.  Some say dream big, some say keep it simple, it matters not.  Your dreams are for you, and while others may benefit from what is going on in your dream world, they are first and foremost for you.  If we are unable to hang on to our dreams, then your future will be one that dangles on the whim of others, and not on what was always intended for you. 

In closing let me say this: look at your dreams and tell me what emotion comes to mind.  Do your dreams bring you a happiness, a joy?  I dare say that we have a Golden Ticket inasmuch as our dreams have endless possibilities.  We can no more limit our dreaming than we can limit our creative abilities.  The only thing that can limit dreams is your ability to believe in your dreams.  Certainly people will try to take you down, make you doubt, belittle your dreams, but if you will stand firm, if you will not faint, then things will come about in the perfection of the Universe.  We have dreams to give us hope.  We have dreams to give us direction.  We have dreams to prove that we are worthy of all good things.  Stand firm, stand tall, and never doubt that what goes on in your dream world is nothing more than a clip of what is to come.  Don't worry about time, don't worry how everything is going to play out, simply believe.  Our dreams are our destiny, and the sooner we can accept that, the sooner we will step out into those things that will benefit everyone.  You have my word on that.

 

Is it time to Celebrate? You bet it is!!

 With what most people have been through over the last few years, few months, or maybe just the last few weeks, I wanted to remind everyone that there is always something to celebrate, and if you can't think of what that is, maybe it is time to fake it til you make it. I talk to numerous people each and every day, and without exception there is always something going on with someone that has tested their patience, their faith, or simply just made them wonder just what in the world is going on with this thing we call life.  What I'd like to do today is provide you with a little encouragement, and maybe get you to realize that there is always something to celebrate no matter where you might find yourself in this moment. 

When we are facing, or in the midst of a struggle, it is often difficult to realize that we should be celebrating what we are going through.  As contrary as it may seem to common sense, like how can we celebrate when something awful is happening, but hear me out.  I've said numerous times that everything we go through is our chance to grow, to mature, to show what we are made of.  There are some who will shrink in a time of adversity.  The true patriot, the victor, will always find the good, the lesson, in whatever is being faced at the moment.  Now there is no doubt that victory may not be the very first thought that comes to mind when faced with a crappy situation.  As long as you do not hold on to that doubt you will begin to see the good in all things. 

I'd like you to think about this:  if we are in fact the Remnant, the chosen ones, who will usher in this next great movement, don't you think that maybe all the stuff that is being thrown at us is nothing more than a diversion to get us to run away from what is truly the blessing in all this?  There are forces out there, dark forces who want nothing more than for us to be destroyed.   Why? Because we are a threat to them.  Our being here right now contradicts their plan for humanity.  Our strength, our power, our undeniable greatness is what will take down the dark forces, and these forces will do anything, and everything to see that we do not succeed.  By the mere fact that we have been chosen should be cause for celebration.  

There are some who will succumb to the darkness out there.  They will not be able to rise above it, take their rightful place, and therefore will loose out on the biggest move of Spirit in our life time, and for that matter in the history of mankind.  We have been positioned here, we have been given sight to see what is happening, and if this does not make you want to dance a jig, I don't know what will.  Certainly we have been tested, but to those who much has been given, much is required.  We should be shouting from the mountain tops how grand things are, in spite of what the rest of the world might be observing.  If we only look at what is in front of us, we are going to loose sight of what is in us.  Did you hear me?  If we only focus on what our eyes can see, we will never fully understand what our spirit is trying to communicate to us.  

I do not want to diminish what some people have gone through.  Many have lost family and loved ones over the last year or two.  As devastating as a loss like this can be, there is a reason, and finding out what that reason is is one way of honoring those who have departed from us. It would be great to fully understand what each of us have gone through in life, and one day we may get to that point.  Until such time as we do, what we can hold on to is the simple fact that we go through all manner of things in life to get us to the point we find ourselves in right now.  We live, we learn, we continue on.  That is the cycle we are in, and that is a cycle we will always be going through.  Sometimes things will be easy, other times will be difficult, but no matter the level of discomfort, the amount of joy we may experience, there is a reason for it.  Understanding this is crucial to your development as a created being.

Often we focus on the things we want, on things we feel we are lacking, when what we should be doing at all times is showing gratitude for all that we have.  Material things in life will come and go.  Truth be told, you can have all the material wealth of the world, and if you are not doing the one thing you were created to do, your passion, your destiny, then material stuff will eventually be an empty, non-fulfilling item.  Much of what we do is spiritual, and not only what we can see, smell, touch, taste, etc.  When we embrace our spirit nature, when we realize there is so much more to life than material stuff, then we will be celebrating life, for then life will be grand beyond imagination.  

It is time to celebrate all that we are, all that we have come through, and all that is to come.  It is time to celebrate because we have been chosen to be here in such a time as this.  It is time to celebrate because we are in fact destined to usher in greatness.  When we celebrate life we are recognizing the significance of life.  When we celebrate with joy, we are recognizing that joy should rule our lives.  When we celebrate all things, good, bad, indifferent, we are recognizing that all things are leading us to our own promised land.  If we are able to celebrate all things, at all times, then how much better will our celebrations be when we finally walk in the upcoming period of prosperity and blessings? 

We must start by celebrating all things.  When we learn to celebrate the small things we will soon be ushered into a time when we can celebrate the big things, the huge things, the unimaginable things.  If we are unable to celebrate the little, we will never get to the big. When you consider how blessed you are to be in this time there should never be a day that you don't celebrate it.  We have been enslaved by dark for so long, we must begin to live our lives the way we were always intended to live.  Each day is a celebration of life, and each day we celebrate the small, we are actually inviting the big.  Do the right thing, be grateful, be joyous, and begin to celebrate all that you have.  Trust me, life is good, and we need to show the good with all those around us.

Do you really Believe? Part II

 

They say that truth is truth.  The question I have for you this day is do you really believe that?  Often spoken that one man's truth is another man's fiction.  I guess the only way we can look at truth, at believing, is to look at you, figure out where things are coming from, and does what you believe in resonate with you, without regard to what others think?  This is what we are going to tackle today, and it is my hope that you will walk away with a new understanding of truth, of believing, and therefore be prepared for what lies ahead of you.

There are countless people who will profess truth, but truth be told, it is their truth and not necessarily yours. When one attempts to push their beliefs on others, without thinking about background, upbringing, or even simple stuff like "who cares", then it is so very difficult to separate truth from fiction.  Just because someone says something is so, doesn't make it so.  Just because someone believes one way, doesn't mean you are wrong for believing another way.  We've all been around those "Strong Willed" people who are bound and determined to get you to see things their way, and until such time as you bow to their wishes there is nothing but what can only be described as conflict.  How many conflicts have been started because one held a different truth from another?  How many wars have started because one group believed differently from the other?  It's time that we realize that we can no longer demand something from someone else because we believe a certain way.

There is no other way to put this, but Truth is controversial.  Why? It's quite simple, people believe what they believe and that's all there is to it.  Now there are some who have changed their beliefs based on an open mind, and once information was provided to them they were able to change directions so to speak, and see things a different way.  On the other hand, there are those who no matter what are never, and I mean never going to change how they think, what they think, and why they think something.  To each his own, but I'd like to think that I am open minded enough that I can be shown a different way.  Ultimately it is my decision what direction to take my beliefs and truths, and no-one else's. 

Truth is a funny thing because there are many people who hide from the truth.  It's not that they whole-heartedly believe, it's that it's easier to stand behind a supposed truth than stand in harms way because you truly believe another way.  When one truly has a belief, when one really does stand on the truth, their truth, then they are, or at least, should be prepared to withstand the arrows that might be coming their way.  The great divide between really believing something, or simply standing behind it because it's convenient, is are you willing to be beat up for it?  Now I don't mean beat up in the sense of taking a fist to the face, but words spoken against you are just as harmful, in my opinion.  Standing in your truth will take personal fortitude.  It's easy to say you believe a certain way, but when push comes to shove, do you really have what it takes to stand up to your "Truths"?  I can't answer that question for you, but it's something you should think about, because the day will come when you will have to prove what you believe in.

What is the dividing line when it comes to truth?  Are you willing to give it all up for what you believe in, for what you believe to be true?  It's easy to say you believe, but when push comes to shove do you really believe?  Are you willing to fall on your sword for what you believe? Are you willing to give the ultimate sacrifice for what you believe in?  When I served in the military I was willing to give my life in defense of this country, now that is truly believing in something.  Many will say they believe, but in the end your actions are going to show what you truly believe.

There are numerous examples of people who gave their life standing up for what they believed in.  I hope and pray that you will never be put into that situation where you have to give your life, but the question you have to ask, are you prepared to do so if required?  I'll tell you what, there are plenty of people who say they will, but when that time came, they ran away like scared children. Now I'm not condemning them, but this is the great dividing line between truth, and non-truth, between standing on what you believe, or what others may have told you to believe.  Which side of the equation you fall in is entirely up to you.  I for one am not going to cast judgement on anyone.  But let me say this, there will come a day when each and every person is going to have to make that decision.  It may be for a simple truth, or it may be something much larger.  I guess what I want to stress to you today is to hold fast to your truths, but make sure they are yours and not someone else's.  Just as I would give my life for my country, for my dogs, for my loved ones, I will give my life for what I truly believe in.  

I'm not going to ask what you believe in, because truth be told, it's none of my business, but what I will do is ask you to make damn sure that your truths are yours, and yours alone.  Others may share in that truth, but they have to own theirs, as you have to own yours.  Will there ever come a time when we will have to decide between life and death as it pertains to our truths.  I hope and pray not, but history is laced with time periods where it was just that.  People have been burned at the stake for their beliefs.  People have lost their heads, hung, shot, you name it, they have been taken in many different ways, but pretty much for the same reasons: theirs was not the other person's beliefs, and sadly those other people could not, or would not accept that fact.  Funny thing about truths, sometimes they are convenient, sometimes they are not.  Will one stand on principle and honor their truths, or will they because of the pressure, because of the mob mentality simply let go of what they believe to fit in, to survive, to simply slip under the radar?  Trust me, if one succumbs to the pressure, as many do, ultimately you will be eaten up with remorse because you will have sold out, and no amount of supposed gain by selling out will be worth what was ultimately lost.

I encourage you to fully understand what you believe in, what your truths are, and then never ever give in to the pressure, the insults, the fear.  When the end comes you can hold your head up high knowing that you were true to yourself, true to your beliefs, and that is one monumental achievement.

Is "Faith" just the new Buzz word, or do you really have it?

Most of us have faith in some form or to some degree.  Most have faith that they will wake up the next morning.  Faith that they will be able to take another breath, or just faith that the sun will rise tomorrow.  This is simple faith.  Truth of the matter is that faith to take another breath is no different than faith to raise someone from the dead.  It simply comes down to how much you believe.  I've heard so many definitions of what faith is.  If you ask one person you will get one point of view, ask another, and you know the answer.  Faith is individual, always has been and always will be.  Some people have the faith to move a mountain while others can hardly muster up enough faith to take that next breath.  What discourages me from time to time is when I see people who profess to have a ton of faith disparage  those who may be a little weak in their faith.  Get off your high horse people.  Others will discover faith in their own way, in their own time, and the sooner you can accept that fact the better you will be.

What I'd like to do today is provide you Scott's views on faith, and through this maybe get you thinking about a few things.  Now I will be the first to admit that I do not have a patent on faith  My faith is challenged each day just like anyone else.  There are days when faith comes easy, and other days when it is nothing but a struggle.  Much of our views on faith are determined by our views on ourselves.  Do we see ourselves as Warriors, as Sages, or simply someone who might just go with the flow of things?  Do we see ourselves as victorious, as victims, as overcomes, or simply existing in a life with no meaning?  Once again, faith all starts with where you are, and never where anyone else might be at the moment. One's faith is as individual as each snowflake.  So let's delve into who we are, and how faith comes from a place of knowing first and foremost.

If one does not understand or recognize the significance of their own design, their own creation, then one is going to lag behind forever.  Each of our creations is a true masterpiece.  We have embedded in our DNA the God Code.  We, believe it or not, have God right inside of us.  Too few people realize this, and these are the very same people who bemoan that things do not go their way, that they are always on the outside looking in.  Does it take faith to believe we are actually much more than human?  Does it take faith to believe that we are spirit first, and we only inhabit this mortal body?  If you can accept your greatness then I will tell you that walking in faith is going to be as simple as walking down the street. 

Often people complicate faith.  They attach all kinds of limits on it.  People will only have faith when certain things transpire first.  Let me tell you, putting out the old fleece when believing for something is not faith.  You can't claim one thing, and base those claims on having something happening before.  Oh God do this, and then I'll do that.  It doesn't work this way, never has, and never will.  Faith is the assurance of things, even when we can't see things in the daylight.  I guess what confuses me is that people have faith that tells them they are going to live forever in heaven when they die, but somehow can't muster up enough faith to have all their dreams and desires here on earth.  If your Creator placed those dreams and desires inside of you, don't you think they are there for a reason?  You don't have dreams just so God can say"Just Fooling".  

I see lots of people who will daily claim faith, but when tried they run for the hills.  Hey, don't get me wrong, there have been plenty of times in my life when I have headed for the hills.  When times get tough your faith will be tried, but keep this in mind, you will always have what it takes to get through, if you have the faith that is.  True faith can only exist when one is totally aware of just how perfect you are.  I know people will say there are no perfect people.  Well, maybe actions are not perfect, but people are perfect, because you are a product of your Creator, and there are no mistakes when it comes to the Creator of the Universe.  We have a strange way of looking at things.  We claim God is perfect, yet we don't hold the same thought when it comes to one of God's creations.  Why is that?  Why do we belittle the things of God, and more importantly, why do we see ourselves as anything other than perfect?  Once again, some of our actions may not be perfect, but let's not confuse actions with design.  Your design is perfect, just as your being here is in the perfection of the Universe.  If one believes in the perfection of God, the Universe, then how can you see yourself as anything other than perfect?  If you see yourself as perfect, to take it one step farther, then everything you go through in life is also perfect, set before you to get you to the place you are supposed to be.  If you can accept all of this then faith is much easier to hold on to, as you finally can recognize that all things work together.  

Faith is a funny thing.  Most people don't think about it until one's faith is tried.  You're going along through life one step at a time, every thing is good, and you don't give it much of a thought.  Stub your toe on something and all of a sudden the earth is about to end. Where is your faith?  Why did you stub your toe?  So many questions, too few answers, at least that's what you think.  In actuality, the answers are right in front of you.  Maybe you stubbed your toe so that instead of getting into your vehicle like it was planned, now you have to soak or mend your toe.  In the process, maybe, just maybe you being late is why you missed the 30 car pile up on the highway, on a route you were just about to take twenty minutes earlier.  Ever think of that?  

When we realize that we are the orchestrator of our reality, that we create with our words, our thoughts, our feelings, then we may begin to believe that we are indeed more than just mortal, that we are in fact infinite beings, with infinite abilities. When one can grasp their own significance, not significance to wave in someones face, that after all is ego, but significance in what we are, then faith is as simple as 1,2,3.  

Certainly "Faith" may be the buzz word as of late due to all that is going on around us, but might I suggest that instead of basing everything on "Faith" that we base everything on what we are.  I am not discounting Faith, not in the slightest, what I am attempting to do is add to the overall equation of who and what you are so that faith is 1,2,3.  We are faith.  By our mere existence we display faith, live faith, offer faith.  Yes there are times when we see less of it, but in that moment see more of who you are.  If you want faith to grow, then grow in your own understanding of your greatness, your beauty, your perfection.  When you walk in these things, you will not be able to be absent of faith.  Trust me, and let me say this again, your faith will grow as you begin to accept the real, authentic you.  You have my word on that.

 

Celebrate Life, no matter what may be going on right beside you.

 The time has come to celebrate all that you have, all that you are, and most importantly all that you have come through.  There's no doubt that recent events in many of our lives have left us wondering just what went on.  I'm here to tell you that we are entering a time of new beginnings, a time of peace, joy, and happiness, and a time when we will look back and thank our Creator for allowing us to be here in this moment.  The road has not been an easy one to navigate, and there were times when each of us was probably asking just what in the world is going on?  Asking and wondering is a normal human emotion, and since you are human, it isn't surprising if you were asking these questions.  What I want to do today is prepare you for what is coming, and in this preparation, get you ready to enjoy a new way of living.  This new life will be completely different from anything you have experienced thus far, but once you stepped onto it you will know that it was always meant for you.

What we have gone through in this life to date is not how it was intended to be, ever!  We have all been held in captivity by forces who wanted nothing other than to dominate us.  Well the tide is now turning, and each of us will be able to live the way life was always destined for us to live.  I will advise you that the first few moments of this freedom may actually startle a few of you.  Why do I say this?  Energetically things are changing all over the planet.  Eyes, spiritual eyes, are beginning to open, and for many, it may be for the very first time.  When one sees through their Spiritual Eyes, there are moments of unbelief.  It's not that you don't want to believe, it's that what you always thought was truth is now being exposed as nothing but lies.  At this moment in time true freedom is yours to experience, and I for one would relish this moment, as it will be a moment you will never forget.

Why am I talking about these things today?  Well I'm talking about it as much for me as for anyone else.  True freedom is when you begin to operate in those things that were placed in you since the inception of your creation.  True freedom is walking, talking, operating as the Spiritual Being that you are, that you have always been, and that you will always be.  There have been many times in my life when I questioned my own sanity.  I saw things differently than most others.  I was the odd one much of my life, and only now can I see that I wasn't the odd one, I was the fortunate one.  I would question the status quo, not to be stubborn or argumentative, but rather because I was simply searching for clarity.  Much of what I saw in life just did not sit well with me, and it took me years to realize that this was in fact my spirit providing the direction that I needed to go in, to get to the place that I needed to be.  We have been conditioned to take as gospel anything and everything that we have been handed.  Well I'm here to tell you that soon, very, very soon those blinders are going to be ripped off, and you will see with your Spiritual Eyes, and what you see will be of such beauty, such brilliance, that you will never be the same person again.

As I get older I am far less likely to simply accept what is being said, and instead follow what I know to be truth, knowing that this truth is never going to lead me anywhere other than where I am supposed to be.  The saddest part about what we have been put through is that we have missed so much of life's true opportunity to spread our wings and simply be free to be our own person.  So many people have been forced to be this or that, only because others did not want to relinquish the grasp they had on you.  We have been made to feel inferior, made to feel subservient.  Don't you dare think with your own mind as that is contrary to those in power who only want to control you. This is what we have had to contend with, and now we will be free from this type of oppression, and we will be free to soar with the Eagles.

We have all been chosen for such a time as this, is it any wonder why you felt like you never fit in?  Justice is coming to this planet, and we are in a very uniques place where we will see justice, not to laugh at it, or roll around with glee and ego, but rather be around to help those who will not far as well as others.  Our work has just begun as we reach out to help those who will not believe what is right in front of them.  It would be easy to say "I told you so", but that would be ego, and there is no place for ego in this new world.  Compassion, love, understanding is what we need to display.  It is only through compassion, love, and understanding that those who remain asleep will finally wake up to what is truly the reality of life.  I have been on this journey for a very long time, and as I have said and written about countless times in the past, life is a journey of discovery.  We are about to discover all the truth that has been hidden from us.  We are about to walk in Glory.  I guess the only question I have for you, are you ready?

It is hard for me to even find the words to describe what we are about to enter into.  Suffice it to say it will be more than you can imagine.  As we learn to see and operate from a truly spiritual perspective all those things that were impossible before will be certain probabilities now.  We have been limited because we were made to believe we were limited.  We have lived in fear because fear is all we knew.  Shortly the time will come when fear will be gone forever.  Light dissipates darkness, and fear comes from darkness.  I won't sit here and tell you that I have conquered it all.  I have struggles just like most everyone else.  What I do have is a grasp of what is to come.  Did I come by this by accident? Not by a long shot.  When we fail we learn, and I have failed a ton of times in life.  Each time we learn we are one step closer to that time when we will have that "Ah Ha" moment and our eyes are opened to the truth.  

It is indeed a time to celebrate.  It is time to celebrate all that you were created to do, and celebrate like never before.  Nothing can, and nothing will stop what is coming.  As I said moments ago, each of you have been chosen for what is about to be displayed for the entire planet to see.  We have been told that this was going to happen, but days would pass and nothing would come into fruition.  I believe we are beyond the point of no return.  I believe that the glory of who we truly are is about to be shown to those around us, to those who do not believe, and to those who want it as badly as you do.  Prepare yourself because what we are about to be introduced to is going to alter your life forever, and I do mean forever.  Peace. joy, and happiness will no longer be something we hope for, wish for, cry out for, it will be what we have to give to others.  We are the remnant, and we have a responsibility to share what we know, who we are, with the rest of mankind.  WE have been given great things, but with that gift comes a responsibility to give back.  I encourage you to give it freely and with a heart to bless the rest of mankind.  Get ready to celebrate for it's in the here and now.
