#220 Sat. Jan. 4/14, 8:20am, at home.
Come aside and share this time in My Presence. I want you to know Me even more today than you did yesterday.
Where do your concerns lie?
Let them lie at My Feet and step aside from them and be present in My Presence.
You see if you are wandering off into the future, you are not present with Me.
You can’t be in My Presence and be wandering in your mind into next week or the week after.
Your mind does not dwell in stillness when it is so split --- trying to be with Me who is always The Present to you, or trying to figure out the future which you can’t possibly do.
It is when we wander away from The Present and endeavor, in vain, to figure out or plan the future.
With Me in The Present there is little to disquiet your heart; yet rummaging around in the future does not build a peaceful person.
I am The Present. Stay with Me, abide in Me.
When you go off into the future you most likely are not abiding in Me.
Now, sure you can make plans and that is a natural human thing to do.
But I am cautioning you not to let these future plans dominate your life so much so that you don’t get to abide in Me in The Present.
Usually for you Margo it takes you to worry and false sumations and foolish meanderings in your mind.
Making plans to go somewhere is concrete and suitable to do.
However when you start to imagine what could go wrong -- it is very rarely that we ever worry about things going right --- Right? --- that is when the proper process of your mind takes a turn from planning to supposing.
The supposing is usually – ‘what if’ --- what if this happens?, what if they say such and such?, what if they can’t make it?
Do you see the difference between planning something concrete and then immersing yourself into supposing?
Your mind does not wander well into suppositions that tend to bring on worry or concern which you have absolutely no control about.
Now you just said “If a scientist is planning an experiment and he/she supposes that what if they tried it this way” is that not the same thing?
But you can see it is not. As a scientist you have to make suppositions in seeking the final truth of what you want to find.
However, let Me put it this way. You know the difference.
When anything you plan leads you to worry, fear, anxiety, upset it is not abiding in My Presence.
Even a scientist has to turn over their plans to Me for a quicker solution to their problem or scientific research.
Many don’t and if it leads them to dis-ease you know they are not abiding in My Presence – in The Present with Me.
The more you abide with Me the less you will have to plan and plan and plan. Because when you abide in Me you have told Me that you surrender ALL of you to Me.
And that means ALL your plans too.
You may book a flight to travel, but after that you surrender ALL that is attached to this plan to Me.
Let Me guide you. Let Me be your guide.
We don’t think of it that Way do we but really and truly I am your Guide to the next part of your plan and the next.
So you see I can help you make plans, because I am with you anyway, in charge of your life anyway, so I don’t mind helping you.
It is when you struggle with these plans all on your own and become centered on these, then I can’t get in there to help at all.
Watch the conversation you have in your head. Are you trying to pre-plan things that you have no control over? Such as the conversation you will have next week with someone and you rehearse the different scenarios?
Lots and lots of people do this!
So as you spend time planning what you will say or do, you most definitely are not spending time in The Present with Me and thus a huge disconnect happens.
Your mind is endeavoring to control something in the future --- a conversation that you have no control over – so how absolutely frustrating for the mind.
It is living in suppositions and ‘what ifs’ which do not ground you to being in My Presence.
Those of you used to doing this know exactly what I mean.
How often, and be most truthful with Me, do you sit in the midst of your ‘what ifs’ and in My Presence at the same time?
It is Impossible!
If you are in The Present with Me in My Eternal Presence you cannot be ‘what iffing’.
On the other hand if you are tied up in ‘what ifs’ you are not in My Eternal Presence, present with Me.
You are either abiding in you --- in a dither, or you are abiding in Me surrendering all of your ‘what ifs’ to Me.
So when you start to suppose future events or happenings, check yourself and look around and see if I am anywhere to be found.
You may think you can run ahead of Me but you can’t.
So, why bother? Why not settle down to building up a solid ‘in the present’ relationship with Me and let Me take care of ALL the ‘what ifs’ in your life.
If they start to wander into your mind, throw them into My Arms.
You know, this is almost like trash talk. I don’t want you talking trash and I think most of you do not want to talk trash.
So any trash talk ‘what ifs’ just heave them instantly into My Arms because by doing this you stay in The Present with Me – in My Presence.
I will take on all your burdens --- I have told you time and again so don’t hesitate to put trash talk into its proper place – under the fire of My Intense Love.
Do not let it consume you --- let it be consumed by My Love.
Thank you for coming aside for believing in My Words for you and the World.
I love each person in this World. I want each person to KNOW My Love.
Let these Words of Mine resound around the World.
May you see the Face of God and LIVE!
