The Speed of Your Progress is Determined by You

God bless you. Your friend Orion is here. You are well aware that the journey toward soul awakening and development has many signposts and markers upon it. Indeed, these markers cannot be sidestepped, but each one must be reached and accomplished before one is to move on to the next. Yet, the speed of this, the pace of your progress, is determined by you and the efforts that you make, the prayers that you have, the desires that are within you.
You are part of a process of which you are in control and yet that process is often a mystery to you. Some of you are well aware of the progress you are making and the markers that you have achieved, while others walk in faith and live a life in faith, seeking to express the Truth of Divine Love in whatever area, whatever capacity you are able. In this you see the changing perspective, the expression of your self, your soul, rising up and being a part of your consciousness. Thus that change becomes evident or not, depending upon your willingness to adjust your thinking and doing to be more in alignment with what is truly within your soul, rather than continuing to feed and reinforce mental concepts and constructs that are past patterns and comfortable places for each of you.
Yet, we implore you to change, to adjust, and to do so as rapidly as you can. This is not easy for you. I know your earthly plane and all its expectations and edicts of behaviour, etc, that are very much a part of your daily life. Yet, those of you who are taking the road less travelled must face these challenges daily. As you continue to face those challenges, you are expediting the integration of your material consciousness with soul consciousness. As you do so, change is inevitable. Consciousness must shift. Thinking must shift. Awareness of who you are and what you are, as well as what you are doing in the world, must all come into alignment with your conscious self.
My friends, you continue to struggle in many ways. Yet. you have the great Comforter of God’s Touch upon you. You have angel friends, stellar friends and Celestial Friends all arrayed around you, cheering you on, being here to support you, love you and uphold you. We see the end goal, although that goal shifts because there is eternal progress. Yet, we see these markers in front of you and hope that you will achieve them quickly and release those conditions, those attitudes and mindful states that hold you back from them and to be free, free of these conditions, not only for now, but for eternity.
The process of the great gift of Divine Love continues to have its effects upon you. Whether you are aware or not, these effects are present and will leverage you away from conditions and situations of mind that are not in harmony with God’s Laws of Love. Essentially, you are learning a way to love that is not common in your world, a way of being that is not common. You continue to explore these things, often with one foot forward and then a half step back and then two steps forward and possibly two steps back, etc. This is the human condition and the way of human endeavour and progress, but you are continuing forward and will do so with greater strides as this great gift from God builds within you. You come to accept this gift, integrate and live the truth of it.
So much more awaits you, my friends. So much more is necessary in your progress, though you have made great strides. Many of you have been engaged in this journey, this trajectory forward of soul consciousness, for many years. Yet, your focus often remains within the material and so that progress is very slow indeed, very different from where I come from, where the progress of the soul and its transformation is rapid because of the environment which sustains us. You live in a very different environment indeed, an environment that is contrary to this growth. Hence, you require all of the support from us, all the blessings from the Creator upon you in order to remain steady in your journey. Often that journey is one of hesitation and steps that are not sure and full of trepidation, but you do so in faith and you do so because you have and you feel that support around you and with you.
We continue, my friends. What signposts do you think you have passed? What feels different for you? How do you mark your progress? These are important questions you need to ask yourself and come to a place of acknowledging the efforts that you have made and the efforts that I am sure you are aware you need to make. This conscious effort is crucial. There is no other way to do this, but to do so in a way that acknowledges on all levels what is needed, necessary and expressed in your life so that you may move on. We are encouraging you because we have an agenda, as you know. God has an agenda. Your angel friends have an agenda. We rely upon you to move toward these things willingly and consciously. If you ignore this and rationalise that your progress is swift and that you are indeed free of all conditions and obstacles in your life, then you have engaged in a mental illusion that brings you within its thrall and ideas of who and what you are.
This you must avoid at all costs, my beloved friends. Be realistic. Be attuned. Be true to your soul and its condition. In this dedication of awareness and perception, you will be empowered to move forward. You will have all that you need in order to do so, but the illusions of the mind are not a part of this process. True honesty and integrity is required and needed each and every day, each and every breath, so that you may move forward in ways that will, quite frankly, astound you and surprise you. Yet, many things are coming into your world, into your lives, that will bring greater challenge and you need to be stronger. You need to be clearer in your perspective and further along your journey that you may have what is required to cope with these severe changes and challenges.
This world of yours is not an easy one and it continually brings forth its challenges. It continually adds further darkness to your lives if you allow it to do so. Yet, as you have been told, God has a plan to eradicate these conditions and to bring light, further light into the world. You are all a part of this plan, if you elect to be so. We continue to encourage you and to be clear in our descriptions, guidance and perceptions, so that you are aware and can apply yourselves in the fullness of your soul, desires. Even mental attributes will encourage you forward.
Much is asked of you, my friends. You ask much of yourself. Indeed, with the power of Divine Love within your soul, the awareness that comes as a result of this and as you empower yourself in the ways that you have been taught and directed toward, then success will be yours. Success will be measured with each day, success that will truly change you and bring you to a place of greater harmony and light and love. The journey is simple, but the road that you take often is not. As we continue to encourage you and guide you, we hope that the road will be straight rather than meandering and cautious, but truly an expression of the bravery, focus and desires of your soul to move forward in soul, awakening, perception, brightening and clarity.
May God bless you on that journey, my friends. I am Orion. I say all of these things because I love you so and I am cheering you on, as are so many, as you continue on this road, a road that often requires great faith and trust, bravery and focus. God bless you, beloved souls. God bless you in Love.
