On this day of your life

I believe God wants you to know ...

... that nothing is ever as bleak as it looks.
Everything, in fact, is a blessing.

I know, I know... that is sometimes very hard

to believe. How can a sudden, calamitous event in one's life

be a blessing? It takes a longer view, I know,

to see this wonderful truth. Even a diagnosis

of a terminal illness could be seen as another gift

from life when experienced from a particular perspective.

It is an opportunity for us to express once again,

at the next highest level, Who We Really Are.

And, if it turns out that, at the Soul level, we have

indeed decided to leave our present physicality

in this particular way and time, that, too,

would be an expression of our Highest Self.

And so, all "calamities" are blessings, not yet

understood by the Mind. God knew this was a good day

for you to hear this...
