The Melchizedek Chronicles – So what can little old you do to Save your Soul?

Often times I run into people who want to talk, talk about life, world affairs, politics, fears, or even the hereafter since I seem to write about it.  There are a lot of potential seekers of Truth out there who want to do the right thing.  Instinctively they know the life they are living cannot be what God expects of them.

Yet they feel inadequate, insignificant even, when I tell them to talk to God or Jesus.  They respond that God or Jesus are Divine beings, with billions of people to worry about not to mention the politicians, nations, cultures and bad people walking the earth.  What could I possibly say to God without sounding like a fool and why would God or Jesus even want to talk to me?

I truly understand their dilemma.

When you are one Soul in a world of 7.7 billion Souls, what chance do you have of ever being heard?

No doubt, it is hard to identify your importance to the Creator and his Son, particularly when you think like a human which we are prone to do.  Here we are, surrounded by billions of people who seem to have no interest in God, the cosmos, and beyond.  Few in that mass of humanity indicate any foundation of divine inspiration to fall back on.

People are almost afraid to encourage others to pursue a path of hope, joy, and compassion for others because there is so much fear and anxiety engulfing them from the negativity projected by those around you.

Collective consciousness is a powerful force for good or evil as it has no moral compass itself but is dependent on the free will of the people feeding it.  When the collective consciousness is devoid of divine inspiration, it is quick to embrace the malaise of the masses we encounter daily.

Most days, if we were to assess the spiritual evolution of humanity, your conclusion would lead you to think humanity is stuck in a quagmire of epic proportions running counter to the teachings of Jesus.

Most days your conclusion would be right.

Now, as long as you are dwelling on observing people, try dwelling on the example Jesus gave us when he walked the earth like you, without the designer clothes and smartphones of course.

When you think about it, Jesus faced a much more hostile and dangerous challenge back then.  In his day the collective consciousness was every bit as negative as today, and the accumulated fear and outright hatred was directed at the bullseye on his back.

The Son of God came here on a mission, to bring about a paradigm shift in humankind without the aid of modern technology like smartphones, WIFI, the Internet, social media, television, news distribution, transportation or any of the marvelous advances in science and technology that spoil us today.

There were no live podcasts of his beautiful message, no videos of his talks, no interaction of Jesus and people on YouTube, no news media coverage of him, no documentaries, books, CDs and certainly no reporting of his inspirational message.

Social media in his day was word of mouth.  If you did not see him in action, or know someone who did, you knew very little about the Son of God.  Jesus was only able to spread his message as far as he could walk, to the next village.

If you were fortunate enough to be a witness in the crowd, you saw a handsome young man, calm, smiling, filled with hope and joy, brimming over with love, compassion and empathy for everyone, most certainly a man of destiny.

He spoke Truth, often using parables rather than direct attacks on the listener to make a point.  The real attention grabber, however, was his strange way of working miracles that defied the human belief system, yet reinforced his message of love to the masses.

Yet Jesus was born into life on earth knowing full well of his impending death at an early age, 33 years old, at the hands of those very people he loved, tried hardest to heal, and sought to awaken to the light.

There was no hint of ego in this kind soul from Nazareth and no hint of bias in his attitude toward people.  He embraced and often healed young and old, rich and poor, Jewish Sanhedrin and lepers, Roman rulers and the blind, and now and then an occasional dead person.

Jesus was not an orator who spewed fire and brimstone to get attention or make a point like his cousin John the Baptist, the Zealot.  In spite of the fact Jesus knew his tragic fate he never projected fear but hope and understanding, love and finding your way into the light.

Oh, he knew his destiny, and even when all his apostles abandoned him at the end, leaving only his Mother and the Magdalen at his side, yet he still accepted the most horrific torture and death imaginable.

Still, when the moment came, even in a world devoid of any and all technology and communications, millions of people around the world experienced it with him.  At the moment of death, the evening sky turned pitch black, giant fingers of lightning exploded throughout the horizon, where it was light it turned dark and where it was dark it turned light all around the globe.  All the continents of the earth started shaking violently as earthquakes ravaged the lands.

For three long days and nights people hid indoors, terrified of the storms and the weather anomalies everywhere.  What was really going on outside?  If people went out during those fateful days, they might have witnessed a glimpse of Heaven protruding from the Heavens.

The sky was filled with millions and millions of Angels in formation behind their leader Michael the Archangel as the legions soared, swooped, and blazed across the horizon in joyous celebration of the death of Jesus and the fulfillment of the ancient prophecy about the Messiah.  For there could be no miraculous Resurrection of Jesus until he first died.

Today, two-thousand years after his Crucifixion, Resurrection and Ascension, billions upon billions of people know the story of his life.  They know the sacrifice of Jesus so that we may find the Truth in his message of redemption and salvation for all the children of God like us.

Next time you think of how insignificant one little soul like you may be in a sea of billions, think of what Jesus taught.  He said we are no different than he, we are all the same children of God, and we all have the same ability to heal the sick, raise the dead, even move mountains.

One little star in the vastness of a black sky is like a beacon of hope in a world desperate for truth.  Its brilliance pierces the black void drawing our attention away from the depths of darkness and into the ray of light from the heavens.

If you really stop and think of all the miracles of creation it took to create a single, functioning human, you might realize the significance of your being.

If you open yourself up to the possibility that even you are the beneficiary of the Creator’s miracles, you might start to understand the love it took to create you in the first place.

Now, if you were the Creator and created a human from nothing, whose functions and potential remain largely unknown even to this day, would you walk away from your masterpiece?  Of course not!

You want it to succeed, to reach its potential, to radiate the goodness, joy and happiness inherent in it.  The Creator gave you an unlimited imagination to inspire you, a free spirit to motivate you, a Son to show you the path home, and a Holy Spirit to awaken you to the love of God, and the desire within you to help others find their way home.

Seek the Truth and it will find you.  You are never alone and never forgotten.  God will never give up on you.  For you are one of God’s precious children.  Now, talk to your Father will you!

A Message to Distressed Roman Catholics and People of all Faiths

What to do about the crisis in the 
Roman Catholic Church

The Roman Catholic Church is the largest religious denomination in the world with over 1.5 billion members.  Never in the history of the Church since the time of Jesus over 2000 years ago has the plague of scandal from within threatened the very existence of the Catholic Church.

Ever since the recent revelations regarding sexual abuse within the Church the news media, many of whom have consistently demonstrated a bias against God, Jesus, the Catholic Church, and Christianity in general, have been feasting on the controversy.

In fact, after two years of incessant bashing of candidate for president, then President Trump, the media have honed their skills at fanning the fires of fear, hatred and bigotry.  Sad to say they have grown quite proficient at it.

The Pennsylvania Grand Jury report is a perfect example.  St. Peter’s Square in the Vatican was rocked to the foundations with the revelations currently in the news.  It only took a couple of days for former Vatican officials and ambassadors to be discovered by the media who started demanding the current Pope Francis resign.

Almost lost in the media feeding frenzy was the fact there have been no instances of abuse since 2002, sixteen years by my count.  Add to that many of the breaking news cases were identified long ago, and some dated back from eighteen to seventy years ago.

Make no mistake, the nature of the abuse is sick, evil and intolerable.  Even Pope Francis says those guilty of the deeds or guilty of covering up the deeds should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law and guilty parties must face the most severe punishment possible.

What most news stories fail to mention is that the State of Pennsylvania criminal code has a statute of limitations extending twelve years and all recent cases discussed are way beyond the statute.  In other words, nothing can be done in either criminal or civil courts to punish the offenders who have ruined so many young lives.  The statute of limitations has expired.

Simply stated, it was never the intent of the news blitz to prosecute criminals, it was an attempt to discredit the institution of Christianity in general, a nefarious movement that has been underway for decades.

So, what can the Catholics do who are absorbing the shame and fear of the media campaign against all religions?

Well, perhaps they should listen to the words of the founder of Christianity, Jesus.  Whenever one has a crisis of faith, they have already ignored the sacred teachings of Jesus.  Faith, first and foremost, is the goodness of the Father and the teaching of His Son Jesus.

Faith that the miraculous creation of Father Creator, meaning our world, our Sun and Moon, our galaxy, our cosmos and even ourselves and our souls reflect the perfect love of the Father for all his Creations, including us, all of us.

As for organized or institutionalized religion, that was never part of the world Jesus described.  There was no hierarchy of religious leaders, no pecking order as to who was closest to God.  There was never any discussion of the church and the representatives of the church acquiring property, wealth, power or status within the institutional religion.

Quite the contrary, Jesus encouraged everyone of any or no faith to speak directly to the Father, to acknowledge the perfect love of the Father in creating us, and to recognize Jesus came to give us a path to eternal salvation.

That path would lead to the Holy Spirit coming to help us as happened to the Apostles and Magdalene at the Ascension of Jesus.  If we recognized the love of the Father, and followed the path Jesus showed us in order to live the will of the Father, we would once again become One with the Creator.

The “priests” Jesus recruited were married and single.  His disciples were men and women.  No massive cathedrals or monasteries were needed to find God and no religious hierarchy stood between you and the Father.

Now, do you really think God would create all that is to us, including you and me, then give us a free will and soul, and billions of years later turn his back on us?  I mean, he even sacrificed His Son for us to help awaken us to remember the path to redemption and salvation.

Maybe if we were not so busy trying to play God in our everyday lives and cultures and even in our religions, things might be quite different.

Maybe if we demonstrated our Faith in the Father and Son by living a life of love, joy and compassion as Jesus advised, perhaps the Dark Side might not have so easily confused us and been able to snatch control of our souls and make humans carry out the sordid acts of the Dark Side.

Make no mistake, evil is running rampant because we are losing the anchor of Faith in the “Father’s Will.”  Our fear empowers the Dark Side.  Only by taking back that power can we defeat the Darkness we manifested in the first place.  That is through Faith.

Finally, do you think an all-powerful, all-loving God would abandon you in your hour of need?

Jesus said to pray to the Father, or pray to the Father through him.  The Holy Mother Mary said pray to God through the Rosary for the good of all God’s creation.  The Magdalene and Apostles spread the same message after receiving the Holy Spirit at the Ascension of Jesus.

To find Grace you must have Faith.

When you regain the Faith you have lost, as the potential is always within you, you will remember and know.  At any moment the Father can act through miracles or whatever else it might take, Divine power and intervention, to fix the mistakes of mankind and our misuse of free will.

Pray for divine intervention to heal the earth and the people.  Pray that our world leaders will help fix the problems of the world.  Pray that those who lost their souls to the Dark Side and spread hatred and fear can escape the clutches of the Dark Side.

Pray thanks to the Father for the opportunity to live his Will --- then live with joy, forgive with compassion, and always remember, this lifetime is but another test and step toward eternal salvation.

The Art of Mediation - Melchizedek Style

Melchizedek Style

Find a space offering a safe haven, harmony, Oneness and peace with minimal electronic devices, minimal noise, and minimal distractions (no cell phone).

Create a unique environment within your safe haven with books, quotes, objects, sacred stones or artifacts, photos or other items that trigger your joy, peace and tranquility.

Begin transitional breathing exercises to reduce your anxieties, fears, blood pressure and pace of breathing.

One exercise I was taught requires you to inhale deeply through your nose four (4) counts (seconds), hold your breath for twelve (12) counts, and exhale deeply through your mouth for eight (8) counts.

The point is to rapidly expand your lungs to full capacity by intensely breathing through your nose, then empty your lungs by intensely exhaling.

Repeat this cycle rapidly ten times without stopping.  Then rest and try to feel the heartbeat of Mother Earth that binds you to her.  Obviously, it works best when undertaken in nature but it can be felt inside as well with practice.

[If you are in nature you should be sitting and barefoot to magnify your experience.]

Allow yourself to relax, deeper and deeper, and imagine becoming one with the life force and soul of nature, and see all of the intrinsic parts, from earth to water, land to sky, and everything occupying them.

Then recognize, witness or imagine the infinite multitude of miracles it took to create you, and to create all of Creation.

Marvel at the explosion of creative thought it took to create you and your beautiful world through these miracles.  Acknowledge the Perfect Love of the Creator when generating the explosion of thought resulting in you, and in all of creation, by returning your deepest expression of Love to our Creator.

With your acknowledgement of the Creator’s love, and your thanks by returning your love, you seek to unlock doors to open yourself to the higher frequencies of the Earth’s plane of existence.

Then talk to God, pray through words, thoughts, images, or conversation.  Ask the Father and Holy Spirit to help you find the path to Jesus who waits to show us the way to achieve Oneness with Father Creator.  Jesus lights the path, the Holy Spirit illuminates the soul, and Father Creator waits for our return.

Ask and you will be heard.

Seek and you will find.

Follow and you will be One again.

Amen…
