Letter 10 -- Joy Our Dear Blessing Spirits, We spoke to you before of pain–let Us now speak to you of joy. Joy is the essence of Our Lord–He is as filled with the joy of Love as the sea is of water. It is an ever expanding source of Joy that He sends forth as a call unto His children. ‘Come unto My Bosom and rest there whilst I fill your cup with the Joy of My Love.’ It is Truth, Our Brothers and Sisters, that only true Joy exists in that which comes from Him. For He sends forth the call of happiness on those who love God as a shower of sunshine on all who lift their Hearts to Him. Are you aware that Joy is all around you? Do not be so quick to seek it only in the money that you have, or the clothes you wear or in those who love you–but seek it also in His Sister,–Nature. Take time to walk among Her children–the flowers, the trees, the streams, and the animals. Become friends with Her in all Her Goodness. God sings through Her–listen to His voice as He soothes your Heart through the song of the wind in the leaves and feel Him caress your cheek as the breeze gently dances about you. Look at Him at eventide as He shines upon you through His stars and know that He cares as He protects you with the blanket of the night sky. Find Joy in the Hearts of your neighbors. Seek their Hearts and the understanding of them as you go about Loving and Blessing the children of God. Do not be afraid to listen to the woes of the world for therein lies your service unto Him. For as you have become Our Blessing Spirits in the truest sense of the word, we are now asking you to move into the next phase of Loving. As you continue to Bless, in the way that you have found best, We ask that you also now open your Hearts wider still and allow the Joy of the Lord to move through you to others. There is a way in which this shall be done and We ask you now to use your ability to visualize. Close your eyes and visualize yourself as you are communing with another–and following your Blessing, gently place your hand on his or her back between the shoulder blades in the area of the Heart Chakra and to yourself prayerfully say “The Joy of the Lord is with you.” Now see the ray of brilliant Light, as the color of the sun, shower forth from above through your hand into the person’s Heart. He or she may experience some heat, but will probably not notice. Take heed as with the Blessing, that you do not make a judgment as to whether or not this person is worthy of the Joy of the Lord, for he is. For the Lord’s Joy is a healing all of its own as it transcends the healing of all ages. Know that His Love is limitless and as a Mother gives birth to her child the Love of the Lord delivers unto humanity its child–named Joy. Do not be afraid, Our children, to touch others, for it is the Heart and the attitude that determine what is ill or good. For you are now a carrier and a channel of His Blessings and His Joys unto the world. Do not attempt to deliver His Joy without first having been a Blessing Spirit for a length of time to make it a part of your nature. As the Blessings and Joy flow from you to others as easily as a Mother’s love *know then you are a natural child of' God and His heir on earth. If it is impossible to place your hand upon a person’s back, then gently touch him or her upon the arm, shoulder, or hand, and in the beauty of the moment, send forth His Joy. “Touch ye also the little children, for they too shall know His Joy and shall remember in their days of tribulation. For we know not what time shall deliver but know that He will send you His Joy and in it ye shall discover His peace.”
