“Lunch with Jesus.” Jesus, what do I do when I walk with my enemy and am filled with anger. I feel like tossing a pie in their face. The teachings of love your enemies and pray for those who are deceitful or when you feel betrayed by them. 

I need guidance Jesus for today’s challenges and the complexities of modern-day living. 

Jesus response—forgive the hate and desire to offend. The so-called enemy sounds already offensive. You would be adding more hate. Remember what you give out flows through you first and you feel more hate. Hence, the ill feeling is already multiplied. When we act with hate, we get more hate.

Furthermore, the purpose of walking with your so-called enemy is to learn of and feel their pain. You gain in understanding and empathy. The reality is we all err. Who is the greatest among us? The King?  The Priest. None of us. There is one who is light, love and grace, God.

When you make peace with your enemy you have brought the light of God into yourself, in the expression of love. This love is felt by the enemy. They have been touched by God’s presence, which will remain with them. It’s changed them.

How do we be the greatest we can be when we feel the human collective state as negative, bleak? 

Why do you think I went to the mountaintop frequently. To breathe the fresh, new air. To be in the solitude where I could be clear and receive from God. In this way, I was charged anew with the heights of God consciousness. It takes surrender to the lower and receptive to the finer qualities and power of Abba Father. 

Do good dear one. You are trying. Surrender not struggle. Give in and ponder, open to God thoughts.

The mantra of doing good, give life your all, follow the next highest path you are guided to take can become the music flowing through your soul. Be willing to follow the high path of light. It is lit by God already, waiting for you to keep walking in the light.

Jesus, is this why you freed the penitent thief? To do good and stay in the light on the cross?

Yes. Likewise, if I would have stopped Judas, I would not have had the opportunity to free the penitent thief nor resurrect from the cross. Human consciousness is raised and lightened when we follow the high path–the call of God within us. We relieve ourselves of pain while others are also lifted.

Jesus continued: Rising above is not easy. Here are some guides—When we want to be cleansed from anger, fear, upset, forgive the reason and the person. At the time they neither had the strength or knew no better. 

Let’s make the path of light easier for ourselves and those around us by forgiving on a steady basis. Load up on love in your belly and heart. As you eat food, partake of the holy of holy’s within you, God’s love. Love and forgiveness frees our soul to do higher things and to feel the surge of divine renewal.

We advance not when we become part of the problem. Non-forgiveness locks our soul with another for good or ill. The statement may sound strong yet it awakens us from being lulled in indifference and holding onto unloving practices.

Jesus sometimes I get stuck, feel inactive in following what I know to do. 

I leave you for now with this, for in truth my spirit and power is ever with you. You know from study, from reading and openness to my teachings, you know of Karma and Grace. Karma is of the world. Whereas Grace is of heaven. Each human is first of heaven and has heaven flowing through their veins. We weaken from non connection with the Divine. 

Make the Divine union and uniting with God as often as you breathe. It is possible. Open your heart and attune, ask to know God within and in the very place where you are, in whatever state you are in, including your creative works and profession. Open to the heavenly flow of inspiration, love, strength and presence.

You do this, simply increase your desire and regularity of feeling and taking on God’s color, vibration, surge of light and new life, restored energy. I leave my love, power and presence with and within you always. You can do all things I have shown is possible one with God.
