Put away your Shield and Armour and lead with Love

This is a nation without trust. Every soul, it seems, in this place is fearful and finds it very difficult to trust another. And they do indeed find some comfort in one another building a tentative condition of trust, one to another, but are always weary of betrayal, very sensitive to the smallest innuendo. It is a very difficult condition to overcome. Most of humanity must deal with this suspicion and lack of trust of another, for there are many who would take advantage and bring pain to others. Yet there are many more who long to love, who long to live in a place of peace and trust and love.
Beloved souls, do not take on this condition of suspicion and judgement. Trust in your Heavenly Father. Allow God to guide you to many souls and give them your love whether they mistrust or not, it is important to give in this way, and never question whether you are worthy or that God trusts you, for this is the negative condition that makes you hold back as a loving channel in the world. Within each one of you, to some degree, is a weariness of others and I ask you, beloved souls, to put away your shield and your armour, to trust in God who will protect you and will guide you, who will arm you with Love and perception and wisdom, strengthening your soul with His Love, bringing the insights required to navigate the world. You will not be hurt. Only when you join into this condition will you feel that way.
You must rise above, being in the world but not of the world. And in this way you become that beacon of Light, that channel of Love. Yes, you are human and there are parts of you that long for recognition, long to be loved, to be embraced, to be trusted. But within this human condition, whether it is truthful or not, many are suspicious; many project these errors and fears upon you and this becomes a challenge in the world. Your persistence and consistency, your strength and your unyielding love will break down many barriers, for many observe you, my beloveds. Many look upon you as an example and they in their human condition, their lack of trust and their shield of judgement, they look to see cracks and flaws within you, and we do not ask you to be perfect, my beloveds, but we ask you to be strong and consistent, to set the bar up high for your behaviour, for what you speak and do, to be in alignment with God’s Love.
For to take on a leadership role you must act within those parameters of behaviour that are consistent with Love, and Light, and Truth, to be true to what you know and to be true to yourselves, to not compromise in ways that cause hurt and negativity to others. And yes, many project upon you conditions that are not truly a part of you and in this way they hurt themselves. This is not of your concern. Your concern is to be close to God each day, to act in accordance to the truths you know, to be a bright and shining example in this world. It requires strength. It requires discipline within your thinking. It requires self awareness of your own motivations and fears and condition.
What will break the mantleel of error that all mankind carries? How will change come in this world? What is required? It is God’s Love, the power of this Love to heal, to transform and change, the power of this beautiful Love to bring you beyond the human condition, elevated above, walking in this Light with your head held high and your intentions always for Love. And with the inflow of God’s Love comes the transformation of your thinking, your motivations, for the hurts and fears, errors and judgements, are challenged by this Love. This Love is designed to expel these conditions within you. But the last vestiges of such conditions remain within your material mind, these patterns of thoughts, these erroneous conclusions, these unloving projections upon another. And it is your responsibility to change those patterns of thinking, those old habits, to catch up with the changes within you, to harmonize those parts of your being with the power of the Love.
It is always your choice and your responsibility to walk in the Truth, to be self aware of your own actions, to not be impetuous in this way of thinking and doing but to be centered in the Love within your soul which will inform your thoughts and your actions. To do God’s Will does not mean to indulge in your old human ways and rationalize them in your actions and say this is God’s Will. No, my beloveds, you must go within your souls and know from this place and act from this place. This is not easy in this world full of so many conditions brought about by these pains, of generations of mistrust, difficulties, hurtful conditions. No, this is not easy, for often you are unconscious of the influence of these conditions upon your being.
This is why you must be diligent in your prayers, in your efforts to be with God. For it is easier to be with mankind in these conditions than to be with God in his Love and we, who support you and pray for you, put our arms around you, we understand the struggle that you have, for the intensity of these conditions in the world are powerful. It is your mission to confront, to bring love, to do God’s Will, to be as pure as you can in your thoughts, and your own condition, to be a channel of Love, to confront the error, to walk in Light, to be an example. And each of you have chosen to be God’s instruments in this world, that choice happened long ago even before you incarnated and each of you struggles to acknowledge this choice that you made in your souls. You question yourselves. You look at what is all around you that is not of God and there is a sense of futility.
My beloveds, it is for you to listen, to act, to love, but not to formulate the plan for the salvation of mankind. No, my beloveds, when you feel compelled and guided, act upon your guidance; do so in love, that is all that is required of you. Do not try and second-guess God, but stride within that flow that you know, that God is guiding you and all will be well. There will be surprising, wondrous events within your life, invitations and, travels, and many souls you will encounter. And as you walk upon this Earth you will teach truth through your example, through the Light that you carry, through the purity of your thoughts and actions as you’re guided by God.
I do not say these things to reprimand you, my beloveds, only that you become aware of the many conditions that you must deal with each day and I know this causes you a great quandary, a questioning of yourselves. And I say: be of good faith, be strong in the Love, be in this Light and all will fall into place as is meant to be. Have faith in God’s plan, His Will, His desire for the best for each one of you, but also His desire to utilize the precious jewels that you are in this world, bringing forth many gifts, possibilities, and Love.
The world is a complex place filled with many complex ideas. The truth is not complicated; the truth is simple. Remember this, beloveds, Love will inform the truth, the Truth is an expression of Love. It does not need to be complex or difficult to understand and when one is truly of faith there is no great desire to analyze, merely to act in accordance to the knowing of the soul. Be simple in your ways. Love one another. Walk your truth, and serve wherever you can in loving ways. This is what God desires of you and all of us; to love, to serve, to be close to Him, to walk the Truth, to give whenever you can, in whatever way is appropriate.
Thank you for listening to me. Thank you for being a Light in the world. I love you all dearly. I am Andrew and I’m with you often and I am so pleased with your efforts and your attempts to walk in faith and in Love. You will become stronger. You will know from that place within, your life will become simpler, yet what you do will be varied, important, powerful and require much from you, beloveds. Yet you will be at peace and you will know you are doing God’s work. God bless you, beloved souls, who are willing to walk the Divine Path and teach of God’s Love. You are loved. You are truly loved. God bless you.
