My Dear Angel Friends, Here is an angel I once painted. I will take her picture and post her in different ways as time goes on...in the meantime, here is an angel message written on a misty morning here in Austin. South Austin. Not so long ago I lived in Southern California, so I am still in the south, whatever that means. The mourning doves and the birds are greeting the morning as flowers blossom in the pleasure of springtime.
Dearest One,
As you are all One I greet you as One. As angels we know we are one. Angels are not puffed-up with grandeur. We do not have to prove we are unique and special. Angels already know this, for we exist within the Great Knowing.
Just as the individual flames of many candles each burn in their own unique way, so does each angel. So do you, but you do not yet know this. If you are reading this, we assure you--you do not know this.
As a candle flame can exist alone, so can you. So do you. Each flame has the same properties--the ability to give light and warmth, to inspire awe and wonder, to still the mind of one who gazes into its depths.
A great fire can also do this. If you were to watch a fire burning down a house or a forest, you would know this. You would become aware of the magnitude, the power of what happens when many small flames become one.
Angels know this. Angels know this about God. Angels know this about angels. Angels know that their combined energy gives out great warmth, light, beauty, and power. Angels know that you do not know this, and so angels are gentle and compassionate with you.
Just as you are afraid of a forest fire, a house fire, so are you afraid of your own fire, the fire of God, the greatness of your own being that can be experienced when you surrender your ego individuality to the great Oneness. You are afraid to become one with the Oneness, so you stay small and weak. You let yourself stay hidden in the darkness.
Let yourself instead merge with the greatness that is God. Let yourself burn in the great Light. You will not become less. You will not become less of who you are. You will become more. Much more. You will rejoice. You will sing as the angels sing. You will know yourself at last, also as you are known.
With endless and fascinating love, Your Own Guardian angel and all the angels who burn as one flame in your heart forever.
