Whatever we behold, whether it is for ourselves or in this world, it can become.\u00a0 What that means is if you can envision something for yourself or in this world, and it is real in how you look upon it, then it can be made manifest.<\/em> – John Morton <\/p>\n

This article first appeared in the New Day Herald in November 2011.\u00a0 It seems as relevant today as it was when it was first published.\u00a0 Following the article is a beautiful blessing John shared in March 2020. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Whatever we behold, whether it is for ourselves or in this world, it can become.\u00a0 What that means is if you can envision something for yourself or in this world, and it is real in how you look upon it, then it can be made manifest.\u00a0 Sometimes when we see something that is coming from a higher manifestation that has yet to become, it may look as if it is not here yet in this world.\u00a0 Yet, we can behold it as if it is here while knowing it has yet to manifest in this world.<\/p>\n

When I behold something as if it is already here, I am also conscious that I am being shown from the Divine. As I am being shown, I can behold it as real and true. The weakness we might have is to doubt what we behold.\u00a0 You might say, \u201cThat cannot be true\u201d or \u201cThat is too good to be true.\u201d You might even have all sorts of justifications for why you should doubt what you behold.\u00a0 Why would you doubt what you dream of and what you know in your heart of hearts?<\/p>\n

What you may find is that you are actually being asked, \u201cAre you ready?\u201d or \u201cDo you want to choose this?\u201d You may simply say, \u201cNo, I am not ready,\u201d or you may give reasons and justifications.\u00a0 Why search for justification for what would fulfill you?\u00a0 We do not need justification for following our heart of hearts.\u00a0 We do not need to justify or explain what we behold that comes from our divine knowing.<\/p>\n

Another experience of beholding may be that you sense it intuitively, but you have not been able to actually see or envision it yet.\u00a0 The Spirit will not inflict upon you.\u00a0 So, what you behold may appear unconsciously and be moving through levels of consciousness that are not readily seen or perceived.\u00a0 Once you can handle the awareness in your consciousness, then the awareness will appear to you here and now.<\/p>\n

There is also a surprise factor in beholding what can become because God is the kind of guy that likes surprises \u2014 the good kind. Have you ever had an experience where something really delightful and wonderful happened, where something happened that you really wanted maybe even more than anything you imagined?\u00a0 Then you realized, \u201cHey, that is what I was wanting, but I was not conscious enough to know that was actually what I desired.\u201d\u00a0 Somehow your conscious self was distorted so that when you were shown what could become, it seemed different than what you thought initially.\u00a0 Yet, what has become manifest is actually better than anything you could have imagined.\u00a0 What has become is actually a surprise to you, and yet it is what you truly want in your heart of hearts.<\/p>\n

It is important to allow ourselves to see what can become.\u00a0 The kind of seeing I am talking about is of the higher, greater good that can become the highest good.\u00a0 So, be sure to ask yourself, \u201cWhat does what I am beholding ultimately become so it is complete and done for the highest good?\u201d<\/p>\n

When we look to completion spiritually, something has to move. What comes from above, must move to below or you have to go from below to above.\u00a0 Above and below have to meet up eventually.\u00a0 Consider a situation where you realized, \u201cLook, either you go or I go, but someone is going here because the way it is right now, it cannot stand.\u201d\u00a0 That is the reality of something that is of an incomplete nature. It cannot stand. It must move into a complete nature where our spirituality and humanity are aligned.\u00a0 Once we are onto that awareness, that is a sign for us to relax and be patient, to let go and let God.\u00a0 We can realize, \u201cOh, this is going to complete itself regardless.\u201d<\/p>\n

It is not necessary to worry or be concerned that something is not going to work out. It is going to work out eventually.\u00a0 It is just a matter of when and how.\u00a0 We have some influence on that completion process because we have choices in how we create and move into cooperation. So, it is important to accept and do our part in cooperation while remembering it is all in Spirit\u2019s timing and ways.<\/p>\n

There is another part to beholding what can become that is done in spite of what we do.\u00a0 Remember that God is in control and we do not need to be in control.\u00a0 If you attempt to be in control, it will not work anyway.\u00a0 So, you might as well relax, cooperate and go along with the program.\u00a0 Have a good time doing whatever it is you are doing, knowing that God is in control.\u00a0 Some things are going to take place that are inevitable. They will occur whether we are laughing or crying.\u00a0 You get to decide how you want to go through each experience.\u00a0 It is up to you \u2014 laughing or crying. It is your choice.<\/p>\n

We are going to have a better world. You can have a better world for yourself and whoever is coming after you.\u00a0 So, take more authority in how you relate to others, so you set the tone for how people conduct themselves with you.\u00a0 Start choosing those who conduct themselves in the ways that you want to be treated.\u00a0 Choose into the loving and honoring of each soul that comes your way, including yourself.\u00a0\u00a0 As you behold what can become, it is important to love every aspect of yourself.\u00a0 If you are in a state of denial towards some part of yourself such that you pretend you do not have a certain quality or behave or think in a certain way, you are doing a disservice to yourself.\u00a0 You are cutting yourself off from an aspect of yourself, and there is going to be disturbance in your house. A house divided does not have long to stand.\u00a0 It falters.\u00a0 It comes down.\u00a0 The same is true for your personal house.<\/p>\n

All parts of yourself come from the Divine, and God loves all of Its creation.\u00a0 What is the message then? Love all the parts of yourself as your beloved children. Love the parts of you that are growing up and that you find still become distracted or distorted.\u00a0 Help those parts see what is on purpose for you as a soul learning and growing in this world.\u00a0 Honor those parts. It is like honoring children who want to run out and play.\u00a0 You want to allow them their freedom and to enjoy themselves.\u00a0 However, if you are on the interstate highway, that is not such a good plan.\u00a0 So be aware of when it is time to allow parts of you to play and when it is not because it would not be for the highest good at that moment.<\/p>\n

As souls who are learning and growing in this world, we are all light actions.\u00a0 We serve the light action by cooperating with how the light is serving us in the moment. Part of that is to be conscious and aware of the opportunity that is here with you in each moment to learn and to clear yourself and to fulfill your purpose as a soul in this world.\u00a0 You are designed for that.<\/p>\n

Choose what is clear for you rather than choosing into distraction, disturbance, ineffectiveness or losing focus on what is in front of you to do as your best choice. When we are on purpose, there is a connectedness and sense of integration rather than a feeling of separation.\u00a0 I call it being unselfconscious, which can seem like you are not even thinking. You are just in a state of doing that is more like a state of being.<\/p>\n

There is no disconnect between who we are and what we are doing other than we are human. However, there is a friction factor in our humanness that has a lag, but it is a natural lag. It\u2019s a God-created lag.\u00a0 Our place with this lag is to accept it, honor it, love it and enjoy it.\u00a0 So, we can enjoy the way we do things that are silly, foolish or nonsensical.\u00a0 That is just part of our humanity.<\/p>\n

How does God regard those aspects of our humanness? God loves and appreciates it all because we each are the only one that does our own.\u00a0 So, love yourself completely because there is a special love there from God that is just for you.\u00a0 It is a complete love that has no limits.\u00a0 When I remember God\u2019s love for me, I do not have any issues. I do not have any dissatisfactions, worries, or fears. I am just full of love, enjoyment and peace. There is no sense of \u201chave-to.\u201d\u00a0 There is nothing going on like, \u201cThis is wrong. This is not good enough.\u201d<\/p>\n

A way to remember God\u2019s love for us is to stop criticizing in ways that are judging.\u00a0 Instead, be gracious and forgiving.\u00a0 Also, remember our natural disposition is to be courageous whether we are venturing into the known or unknown.\u00a0 Courage, valor and bravery are invincible; they are qualities that have no fear.\u00a0 Your courage can come upon fear and see it, but it is not something to slay. Courage is much more a knowing of our nobility and what is right for all and then choosing to uphold that through the courage in our heart.<\/p>\n

Have the courage to be willing to participate in what is right for all. To be right with God is to see the good in all because that is God\u2019s view.\u00a0 We are the ones that sometimes, somehow forget, and that forgetting can go on for quite some time. So, ask inside, \u201cLord, open my eyes that I may see and remember the goodness.\u00a0 Allow me to behold what is for the highest good.\u201d<\/p>\n

You may find yourself asked, \u201cWell, are you prepared to see? Are you prepared to love what you see? Are you going to attempt to take your disturbance and condemnation into what you see?\u201d God will not allow that. So, when you free yourself of your judgments, God will let you see and behold what can become.<\/p>\n

That is the perfection of the Lord. To see truly what God sees, we must be in a loving state.\u00a0 When we are not in a loving state, we do not see what God sees. It is as if we are blind, and what God knows is not known to us.<\/p>\n

Remember that when you step into your trust and your faith, the Lord is with you. That is really all we need to know. Wherever we are, the Lord is with us.\u00a0 The transition from beholding to what can become is simply overcoming our fears, doubts, and those things that we would place upon ourselves as limitations. As our heart knows the truth of who we are, then we can stand strong and move past our perceived limitations.\u00a0 We can act with courage to see the face of God, knowing we can and will see the face of God as our fulfillment.\u00a0 Where do we see the face of God?\u00a0 In the place where that knowing is present which is within.<\/p>\n

Turn from the mind and the sensual experiences into the beauty inside which is a consciousness that can appear as nothingness.\u00a0 Then wait.\u00a0 What are we waiting for? We\u2019re waiting for whatever that moment is when we awaken, knowing we are here in this world to awaken and see God in every moment.<\/p>\n

This physical world is not meant to fulfill us. It is meant to usher us into what is next in our learning and becoming who we truly are in spirit.\u00a0 \u00a0As we realize that, we can have a sense of preparedness that as we walk and survive in this world, we shall not fear. That is the truth. So, if we are frequenting in fear, we are moved out of our courage and natural knowing. \u00a0We are out of sync with our true self.<\/p>\n

Remember to stop the fear and choose to trust in the Lord.\u00a0 Find the frequency within you that is peaceful and beautiful.\u00a0 What we find as we discover our Godhood is that with God all things are possible.\u00a0 All the human factors are transcended in the God factors which reveal all is one, all is love, all is glorious.<\/p>\n

There are things in your life that are meant to reveal who we are. Those things that are meant to be moved and shifted. \u00a0What can be shaken will be shaken, but what cannot be shaken and will never be shaken is our divine nature. So welcome that which disturbs you and shakes you because it is your liberator.\u00a0 Embrace your learning and clearing process.\u00a0 Our choice is to behold who we truly are and become our divine self freely and fully.<\/p>\n

When we can love and accept ourself and our life experiences regardless of their conditions, we are free. \u00a0In the exact moment that we understand all is good is the moment of our liberation. \u00a0We see through the eyes of the Lord and behold from the Divine what can become.<\/p>\n

Spiritual Transcendence<\/h4>\n

Dear Lord<\/p>\n

We welcome Your presence this day<\/p>\n

Full of blessings<\/p>\n

Full of the consciousness of the highest good<\/p>\n

We open ourselves again to be aware of whatever is present<\/p>\n

So we bring You our concerns, whatever they are<\/p>\n

We find that everything is embraced<\/p>\n

And also in a movement that is lifting, clearing, balancing, healing<\/p>\n

And whatever is needed, wherever it is needed, and for whoever is needed<\/p>\n

We are in the consciousness of the Beloved<\/p>\n

In that consciousness, we have great altitude<\/p>\n

And in this perspective of the higher consciousness<\/p>\n

We can see the beauty and grace<\/p>\n

And know that whatever is going on in the world is momentary, always changing<\/p>\n

So we bring our attention, our focus, into what helps, what lifts, what comforts<\/p>\n

Also that we have compassion<\/p>\n

This compassion is for whatever is difficult<\/p>\n

Whatever is challenging, confusing<\/p>\n

We send this compassion to our own consciousness, our own selves<\/p>\n

To whoever is near, even if we do not see them<\/p>\n

And whatever is near, if we do not see what that is<\/p>\n

You remind us that we always have the opportunity to call forward light and love<\/p>\n

To come into that presence called the Holy Spirit<\/p>\n

That it brings us in the absolute truth, the living truth, the eternal truth<\/p>\n

We give thanks to rejoice<\/p>\n

That we still can find the cause for celebration<\/p>\n

Especially as we can see into the transcendence<\/p>\n

The nature of who we are spiritually<\/p>\n

That transcends whatever is going on in this world<\/p>\n

We find that presence that is relaxing, assuring, and bringing our strength<\/p>\n

In this consciousness, we have the experience You are always with us<\/p>\n

You also lead us in the ways that are serving the highest good<\/p>\n

You let us see<\/p>\n

You let us hear<\/p>\n

You let us feel<\/p>\n

Whatever is serving this Presence<\/p>\n

We give thanks that this is being done through the Christ, through the Traveler<\/p>\n

In that Presence that is in all levels<\/p>\n

We experience also Your rhythm that comes and goes<\/p>\n

Moves in perfect ways and perfect timing<\/p>\n

And endures through all conditions<\/p>\n
