Lao Tzu received by Jimbeau Walsh
Dear brothers and sisters. I am Lao Tzu, your celestial friend on the way of Divine Love.
The words most commonly associated with me, and my writings are these: “The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step”. And though I was referring to the way of natural love in my days on earth, those of you on the path with me of Divine Love can take a step at a time. For, imagine if, for a moment, you were to enter a very high sphere, so filled with effulgent light that you are, in a sense, blinded and can barely make out the realm you are in. So, you move back a bit, for you can only be where the level of your soul progression is, and my dear ones here, you needn’t worry about landing in darkness, though there are many here who, when they do cross over, will help those who are in darkness and help them into the light and the love of God.
You have taken a step in prayer, that your soul may be transformed, but now your journey is no longer a thousand miles but an eternal one, walking into immortality. I ask you all to acknowledge where you are and when you feel anything, any attachment, any negativity holding you back, pray that it may be displaced by love. For the love of God is the great healer and transformer of every soul, and this is the Creator’s wish for every soul. You have been encouraged to share these truths that you have received in word and deed and very substance with the world. Yet the human mindset that likes to sort things out looks at these encouragements as perhaps a mission, a struggle. What will I say? Can I get others to pray with me? Should I share a poem, a book, or a song? How can I reach the world so in darkness? These are valid considerations. But as you have also been told, you are the truth to the extent that you live it in your souls. You are the way to the extent that your soul is illumined in God’s love. It may seem a cliché to say, “shine your light on all,” and if you did not have this light, there would be some validity to that. But here we are in the presence of God in the showering of God’s love, our souls opening in this moment in joy, in bliss.
So, before you venture out to save the world, be in the love. This humble journey, this prayerful journey, does begin with a single step, and yet it is endless. So, as you walk the earth with the love of God in the temple of your soul, maintaining a prayerful connection, every interaction will be in the flow of grace and in divine guidance. You will always draw us near, and we will lift you up, protect you, and influence you with the divine love in our souls.
My brothers and sisters, I thank you, and my brother and I shall step back in this prayer, in this lattice of light, in this portal of Love Divine, with all my love and blessings to you. I am your brother in Christ, in the love of God, and a celestial angel.
I am Lao Tzu. God bless you.
