What I thought I knew is erased when I forgive.
What I believed about the past no longer exists, when I remember the past is not here.
What I think I can count on in a temporary world disappears when the world is gone.
What I know is a product of what I believe and choose to be true in any given moment.
So what do you know?
What will you give your life for?
What is “true” for you?
What will last when you and I are gone?
I know God is the creative power of Love.
I know God (Goodness) is the essence of all life.
I know that Love created me and you to be love, live Love, have Love and give Love.
I know that when I remember this, I am happy and fulfilled.
Life has given me the opportunity to experiment with what I think I know.
I know I choose happiness and peace.
I know I choose to give and receive Love.
I know Love works.
I know when I am giving I feel like I am living.
I know I can die and be born again.
I know that there is a Goodness that provides for me through all things.
I know when I am trusting, I feel peaceful and happy.
I know when I forgive all my judgments that life works easily.
I know that when I think I know, it will be based on my judging mind, beliefs, history and the world,
I know when I am willing to let go and trust in the God, Goodness and Love within, I know what I need.I I know all things work together for Good…when I don’t interfere.
I know that I AM.
How do you know what you know?
It is unchanging.
It is healing and helpful.
It is a blessing to all.
It works for all people and all time.
Consider that our function is really to forgive, erase and undo the world what is not real.
Consider that we are here to undo all miscreations and illusions.
Consider that our learned, fear-based or judging mind is in error and misperceives what is.
Consider that when we see with forgiving eyes and a loving heart, we see all Good and only Good.
Perhaps what I thought I knew was simply the illusion I made up to hide the Truth in me and you.
Perhaps there is only Love.
Perhaps Love makes the world go round…..and creates through us when we remember the Love we Are.
Love created Love for the purpose of remembering to Love,
Betty Lue
You Are A Flower in the Garden of Life
If you would grow to be your best self
Be patient, not demanding
Accepting, not condemning
Nurturing, not withholding
Self-marveling, not belittling
Gently guiding, not pushing & punishing
For you are more sensitive than you know
Mankind is tough as war
Yet delicate as flowers
We can endure agonies
But we open fully only to warmth & light
And our need to grow is fragile as a fragrance
Dispersed by storms of will
To return only when those storms are still
So accept, respect,
Attend your sensitivity
A flower
Cannot be opened
With a hammer

Commitment
As clarity comes to my “new mind”, I realize that it is time to renew my vows to me and you.
When the past is gone, it leaves an opening for a rededication to what is purposeful.
When we “die” to our old self, our schedules, expectations and ways of being, we must choose again.
When we awaken to each new dawn with a new vision, guided from within, we listen to honor the call.
I am here to Love unconditionally.
My commitment is to never quit on Love….loving you and me and All as One.
I am here to serve from the heart.
My commitment is give freely with joy and gratitude always.
I am here to remember Goodness and “Godness” in all creation.
My commitment is to forgive any “mis-creation”, the belief in “what is judged as “not good”.
How does this feel?
This feels simple.
This feels true.
This feels like loving me and loving you.
This feels Good and whole and beautiful.
How does this look?
This looks like fun, safe and easy living.
This looks like what I have done my whole life.
This looks like being whole and happy and free.
This looks like a Good Life!
How does this translate into worldly life?

Loving us all as One…..for so we are.

How does my life work?
*If what I believe is what I see, changing my beliefs changes my life.
*If full appreciation yields more of the Good I value, I can appreciate all Good to be abundant in Good.
*If I can change my mind, what I believe and think and practice, I can change everything I experience.
This sounds like total freedom to be and do, believe and perceive, have and experience what I choose.
This feels like taking complete responsibility for my whole life, inside and out.
This looks like being a co-creator in the lessons I learn and teach, the gifts I give and receive.
This seems like I am responsible for the world I see and have and know.
When I judge what appears to be and what I may have created, I get stuck in the pain and regret.
When I forgive and erase my judgments, I free myself to learn and choose again for what I really want.
When I am confused by other’s opinions, fears and disappointments, I forget my power to choose.
When I know what works because I have experimented with the possibilities, I choose wisely.
My life works when I pay attention to my thoughts, words and actions.
My life works when I learn from everything and everyone.
My life works when I remember to Love myself, mistakes and all.
My life works when I fully appreciate my openness and willingness to believe in Good, to give Good and receive Good.
My life is working for me.
I appreciate my willingness to forgive and to learn.
I respect my resilience and receptivity to change.
I love the Good in me and in All that Is.
Loving how life works!

I Love You
Do you know that I am loving you?
Can you tell that each Loving Reminder is my “love letter” to you and me?
Can you imagine that even without “knowing” you, I can deeply commit to loving you?
Is it possible that without you doing anything for me, I can want to give you everything Good?
Yes, I am loving you.
The more I love my life, the more I want to love yours and ours.
The more I feel inner happiness, the more I want you to experience joy with me.
The more I feel peace, the more I want to share it with you
This is the world I am creating from within.
This is the vision I hold of heaven here on earth.
This is the Gift I have come to share and teach and inspire.
This is the healing and Holy gift I am giving myself and my family of humanity.
I do not need a reason.
I do not need to figure out who to love or how to love.
I do not need to try to love people more or better.
I only need to clear any and all blocks to withholding Love.
Love is my natural state.
Love is being alive.
Love is the life force.
Love is the Joy of our Being.
It is in Love that I find myself.
It is in sharing the Love I Am that I remember.
It is in realizing the gift of Loving that I am connected and at home.
It is in enjoying this Love that I am truly and eternally happy.
When I am distracted, by personality stuff, I need to become as a child.
When I am deceived by listening to the voices of judgment and fear, I need to forgive.
When I am caught up in being busy with doing more, better, right and on time, I need to stop and Be.
When I am lost in the confusion of the illusion, I need to clear my inner vision and let Love lead.
I love you.
I need not know you.
I need not judge or evaluate
I need have no expectations or conditions.
I need only Love.
When I Love, I am free.
When I love, I am at peace.
When I love, I am truly happy.
Thanks for allowing me to Love You.
It is a privilege and honor which I respect and cherish.
Thanks and always Loving You, Betty Lue
LOVE
There is no difficulty that enough love will not conquer;
No disease that enough love will not heal;
No door that enough love will not open;
No gulf that enough love will not bridge;
No wall that enough love will not throw down;
No sin that enough love will not redeem.
It makes no difference
how deeply seated may be the trouble,
How hopeless the outlook,
How muddled the tangle,
How great the mistake.
A sufficient realization of love will dissolve it all.
If only you could love enough, you would be the happiest
and most powerful being in the world.

What Happened and Now What?
Back to Basics: What Happened and Now What?
(July has been a month of healing “crisis” from which I now am emerging to experience my Self and my life anew.”)
This “healing” process seems to be a time of undoing and letting go, a time of “brain-washing” or “innocentizing” my mind. Many times in my life, there has been a call to “step away” from a comfortable and fulfilled life and choose again.
This has included moving from one state to another, releasing several non-profit community holistic centers, I have established, changing from one lifestyle to another,…basically rewriting my life script on a blank page.
Sometime life is so full of “stuff”, there is no room to really see what is purposeful and meaningful.
When we are consumed with schedules, plans, expectations and commitments, we do not choose with total freedom.
Life sometimes begins to lead rather than to be a choice to follow one’s heart and happiness.
And so it is, we must stop and listen, reflect and choose anew what has heart and meaning.
Healing is awakening and cleansing.
Healing is stopping the “doing” and waiting for clarity.
Healing is finding peace within with what appears to be.
Healing is letting go of too much and allowing what is.
Healing is forgiving the past and living in the NOW moment.
Healing is trusting in the process.
Healing is the opportunity to get off the train and choose the next stage of life’s journey.
I am choosing.
I know my life is for giving. I am fulfilled as I give that which I AM and have and create.
Sometimes past choices, commitments and expectations become the impetus rather than what is guiding us from within.
I am here to be truly helpful.
I am here to share the Love I Am.
I don’t need to have answers to know that Love guides my way.
I can trust that the Love and Happiness in me is my guiding light and delight.
And so it is, I remember my calling, my holy purpose and my path as I let Love lead me.
I am changed, made new again, by my willingness to relinquish what I thought was to be.
I am renewed in Spirit and in Love as I let go of my expectations and imaginings.
I am filled with a sense of innocence, curiosity and wonder as I trust in the beauty of each new day.
Every encounter is healing and holy, because I am remembering my Self in you and in everyone.
Yes, sometimes drama seems abrupt, surprising and stops us in order to get our attention.
For me, this “wake up call” was for both Robert and myself an opportunity to remember I am choosing.
I love the life I have co-created.
I choose to continue what inspires, teaches and touches my heart.
These Loving Reminders are a beautiful gift to me and always for you as well.
I am loving you everyday in everyway as I choose my life to be a gift to All.
Life is for giving.
I am the Gift.
It is in giving my whole Self that I realize the Gift I Am.
Blessing be….for the Blessings already are.
Betty Lue
We don’t need a “crisis” to wakeup to the richness of the life we have.
We simply need to pause and take a moment each day to forgive our ignorance, count our blessings and choose to extend love and peace to everyone.
Loving you always.

Focus Only on the Good
When we focus on what we want to “get rid of” or avoid, we give it power.
When we focus on getting away from someone or something, we are looking behind us.
When we focus on trying “not” to be or have or experience something, we make it real.
What we “resist”, persists….in our minds.
What we resist becomes a distraction, detour or delaying tactic.
When we are divided with our creative energies, we cannot be as powerful as when single-minded.
“I think I can.” “I know I Can.” “I can, because I Am.”
The power of creation is in the word, the thought, the activity of our whole being.
I have noticed how much my world is focused on avoiding problems.
When the body is acting out, I can calm it with my loving thoughts, words and actions.
Or I can use my informed worldly mind to analyze, judge, fear and resist.
When I remember the power of the Healing and inspired Mind, I can use thoughts to remember the Truth.
Yes, there seems to be a myriad of ways to distract myself and listen to the world.
Our economy is based on researching new ways to combat and fight off any bad thing.
Our media is sold with the more sensational news items rather than the compassionate stories of kindness.
What if we changed the direction of our thinking to serve only Good, the Highest Good?
What if we live in gratitude and trust?
What if we know that we are always loved?
What if we believe that the Universe, Creative Mind, is always serving our Highest Good?
What if we suspend all judgment and fear and choose to use only Love to clear our mistaken thinking?
When I really look at how I use my time, energy and resources, I see I receive that which I have given.
When I give only Love, I receive only Love.
When I think, speak or act fearfully or defensively, I experience that which I have created.
When I forgive all mistakes in my mind, I choose to give Goodness and Love.
I am forgiving all errors in my mind.
I choose to think always and all ways with the Mind of Goodness and Love.
Loving you,
Betty Lue

To Know Is To Love
Who do you “know”?
Who really “knows” you?
Do you truly “know” you?
Do you fully “love” you?
When we seek to “know”, we invite “Love”.
When we seek to judge, compare, analyze or evaluate, we have chosen to separate.
To unite in Love, is to be willing to drop all separation and experience the union of the Love.
There is no better place to be than to have no blocks to the awareness of Love.
Here in our Loving Union, we simply affirm “Love and Trust and Freedom to Be.”
I love you and you love me, when we simply are willing to accept the other as they are.
The world seems to teach to judge everyone and everything before deciding to LOVE.
When I am judging my condition or state of mind or body, I withhold Love.
When I am doubting myself and my choices, I am divided in my focus and uncertainty is the outcome.
When I forgive my judgments, questions and concerns, I recognize that there is only Peace.
In peace, I am healed and whole.
In Love, I am grateful and certain.
With happiness, I listen with trust and innocence in my heart’s desires.
I remember I am here to Love unconditionally, serve only Good with all my heart and remember Good.
When my mind is focused on the good, this is what I know and see and trust.
When my mind is divided by avoiding or clearing what I have judged, I dilute my focus.
When we remember always and only the Good, the way is clear and we are in Love.
Trust what you know in Love and free yourself to Live your Truth.
Life is Good, when we remember Love!
Loving us all as we remember to Trust in Love.

LOVE IS TRUST
The trust that there is a constant flow of love,
no matter what.
The trust that, in spite of life’s problems,
we believe in and support each other’s right
to live as we choose.
The trust that in adversity,
there is healing and learning and gifts of love.
The trust that under conflict and emotional expression,
there is love
I love you and I trust you.
I free you to be all you are.
and I know you love me too.

Awakening
When we awaken from a dream, sometimes it seems we are still in the dream.
When we awaken from a long sleep, it may take some time to fully get clear.
When we clear what seemed to be, there may be some lingering doubt about what really is.
The new reality does not emerge until we can fully release the myths and veils of the past.
Like an infant coming into the experience of living fully exposed to the world, there is need for sanctuary.
Like a snake shedding its skin, there is a requirement for safety to fully see again.
Life a butterfly emerging from its cocoon, the wings need to dry in the sun.
We each must come out of hibernation and fill ourselves with the nourishment of Light and Love.
Whatever season in which we may find ourselves, we must embrace our current state with compassion.
Time and the flow of nature offers us accurately what is needed for our evolution.
It is right and true to trust in the process and free ourselves from the opinions of others.
Be kind to the One You are in each moment and give yourself the love and support you need always.
*******************************************
Some say this is the time of Ascension.
Perhaps to lift ourselves out of the ways of the world with its beliefs, expectations and considerations is our holy work.
What is it that is True for you right now?
Where are you naturally called to be?
How can you best Love You right now?
Listen to your heart song.
Live your own Truth with kindness and respect.
Honor your whole Self and know You are the Gift!
Loving you,
Betty Lue
The Piscean Age
The Piscean Age was a time filled with victimization consciousness, a time of being at the effect of outer authority, learning to accept the way it was, expressing no preferences, being docile, submissive and humbly suffering in silence, self-martyrdom, giving all for the sake of others, believing that to have less was holy, and allowing the concept of God to be one in which we suffer, pay for our sinfulness and serve others to make penance.
The age past: Have less, suffer more, ask for nothing, wait for heaven. The age of atonement for sins, crucifixion, suffering and sacrifice in order to reap the rewards of the Kingdom of Heaven after death.
The Aquarian Age
The coming Aquarian Age is a time where all will know they are “at cause” in their domain, co-creators with Divine Will, manifesting only that which is good, beautiful and holy. All mankind will awaken to their Inner Authority, the Voice of Divine Consciousness and will follow only that which is for the greatest Good. Happiness, harmony and health will reign as each individual recognizes and expresses their full potential and reaps the abundance of their natural heritage. It will be a time of no guilt, no fear, of choosing what is valuable, expressing the Truth, giving with joy, having everything we want, and of praising God for the perfection of His creation where all live in Love and Peace and Joy: Heaven on Earth NOW.
Transition Period
This in-between time is a period of testing and sorting through. Man is awakening to his divinity, to his inherited right and capacity for choice. As man awakens, great surges of guilt and fear of punishment will flow through humankind calling for forgiveness and light-filled blessing. As man chooses to see his mis-creations without guilt, he will acknowledge the learning value, the needed undoing, and open to the opportunity to choose again for his Highest Vision. Praise God. We are learning to judge nothing, to wholly love and honor ourselves, to give ourselves the highest we know.

Transformation
Can it be that to begin anew, we need to let go of what was?
Can it be that to have a truly transformational experience, we need to relinquish the past?
Can it be that humans have believed the body must die to be “born again”?
Can it be to be filled with new inspiration and wisdom, we must relinquish old beliefs?
Several times in this life time, I have been guided to abruptly step away from the familiar.
In the midst of great “success” and fulfillment, I have been called to leave a comfortable life of ease.
This is another of those “life-changing” or transformative moments.
Turning points are just that…..meant to undo everything to be made new again from within.
How much do I trust in the ever-renewing process of life?
How much do I know I am always perfectly provided for by the Spirit of Life that lives in me?
How willing am I to give up the familiar for the unknown, to live in the present moment?
How open am I to listen within and follow the voice of Love and Peace and happiness in me?
I can see that my whole life has been a amazing opportunity to learn, to share, to help and to contribute.
I observe that my greatest joy comes from learning from everything and everyone.
I appreciate how rich each moment feels when I am fully respectful and grateful for every encounter.
I celebrate the opportunity to renew my mind, body and Spirit with this moment now.
The way of the Tao is change….transformation, ebb and flow, contraction and expansion.
Life is an eternal, ever changing process of natural letting go only to await what is to come.
When I enjoy my own part as observer and fair witness, I can easily see it all as gift.
When I judge I have erred or inter-feared with my thoughts, words or actions, I worry and withhold.
The work appears to be to Let Go and Let Good Be What It Is.
Peace comes from trusting and freeing the process of transformation.
True Joy shines through the innocent wonder and curiosity of waiting with expectancy.
Love lives in my heart when I remember….I Am That Love.
Loving us all as we awaken to remember!

TURNING POINTS
God is always with me.
I have been through turning points in my life--times in which I overcame fear, changed my way of thinking, or found inner reserves of courage and strength. As I look back on these times, I realize I was never alone; God was with me as a guiding hand, a comforting presence and a strengthening power. This gives me comfort and peace.
I give thanks for the turning points in my life, for through them, I have emerged stronger and wiser. I have been blessed with new ideas and attitudes, new ways of seeing the world around me and the people in it. What a blessing to know that God is with me in these moments and in every moment of my life!
You have stripped off the old self with its practices and have clothed yourselves with the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge according to the image of its creator.--Colossians 3:9-10

Waiting in the Silence
A disruption in power sometimes means sitting in the dark.
A spiritual “emergency” calls forth the need to listen for what is emerging.
Being in a state of hibernation or suspended animation can seem like dying to what was.
And “yes” the great mystery of life offers infinite riches to those who trust and wait with wonder.
For one whose life has been guided from within, this has been a time of questioning and curiosity.
For one who has seen numerous shifts and changes in location and focus, this has been a wakeup call.
For one who trusts the loving expansive and healing nature of goodness, waiting has not come easily.
This period of “not knowing” has been a time of no thought, no words, no decisions and no time.
And still I wait.
And still I trust.
I know the answers will come.
I wait with faith in the Divine Outcome.
I know All is well.
I know there is no end to Love.
I know life is a gift of living in the present with gratitude for each moment of Love.
I know I Am loved.
Yes, each and every one a creation of Love itself.
Created infinite.
Created creative in power and peace.
Created beautiful and whole and Good.
We are blessed to be together.
We are gifted to be able and willing to share and strengthen and comfort.
We are loved in our capacity to Love.
And so it is ….we remember.
Loving You,
Betty Lue
Your essence is enough. Your presence is enough. Yet it appears that we live in a world that requires that we do things just to survive. How do you live with that paradox?
When you operate from the basic structure of your own Divine essence and allow what is natural for that essence to emerge (as guided by your spirit), many new possibilities become available. There is an opportunity to experience being filled with the ecstasy of your spirit and the wonder of the Divine Plan.
This requires a basic surrendering of everything you think you know better than your spirit. When you operate from the premise that “Spirit knows best”, new pathways are opened for Spirit to use. Sometimes the requests of Spirit will go against everything you think you know is the “right” way. The emotional body says “no” because it doesn’t feel good. The mental body says, “No, this is not the way I see things.” The physical body fears being hurt.
When you realize it is time to surrender all that you think you know or that you think should be, there is an opportunity for Spirit to reveal more of your Divine Design and the Divine Plan for your life. The openness to jump into the void with Spirit requires that you surrender all personal sire and that you come to the place of knowing that everything serves the Divine Plan. This is an act of Faith. Faith is confidence in your spirit, no matter what the appearance or circumstance.
When the fundamental choice of Spirit takes precedence over all personal desire and will, you operate in a reality based wholly in Grace and Faith. Spirit can then use you in ways that were not possible before.
The bottom line for most beings is that they are here to serve. Some people are very attached to the way they think they will serve. There is spiritual idealism based on the distortions of third-dimensional reality. How could one truly know what the Divine Plan is for their lives if they continue to hold onto what they want it to be? Unless everything is surrendered into the hands of Spirit, you really cannot know anything of real significance. All the rest is just another version of a small story reality based in survival and fear.

Getting Better — Day by Day
Dear Ones,
Yes, I am getting better…day by day.
What matters is that I am here to be truly helpful.
What matters is that I am so grateful to be present in Love.
What matters is that life is filled with opportunities to learn and grow.
What matters is that we have one another to remind us, to support us, to strengthen us.
Both Robert and I spent the last several weeks in a process of hibernation and healing.
In bed, in silence, clearing out physically and letting go of the past.
No consciousness for thinking, reading or “doing” anything but waiting for the renewal.
And now we are waiting for our life script to be “rewritten” from within.
Yes, this was a wakeup call for transformation and renewal.
Life change often comes abruptly….and so this has been.
We are in process….living simply and waiting……..
Listening and learning to be patient.
We are willing.
We are open.
We are trusting.
We are loving you and all that Is.
Loving you,
Betty Lue
From today’s Daily word.
RESILIENCE
I have the resolve and resilience to do what is mine to do.
Although difficult circumstances come my way from time to time, I know better than to let outer situations get the best of me. I remember that wherever I am, God is and always will be.
A child learning to walk will fall on occasion, but he will also get up and try again. The child gets stronger and steadier with every try, and eventually walks without effort. Like that child, I have an inner resilience. If I stumble occasionally, I learn and grow from any seeming mistakes or missteps.
I have the inner strength to bounce back from any challenge. Knowing this, I move through my day with confidence and flexibility. I have the inner resolve and resilience to do whatever is mine to do.
Keep alert, stand firm in your faith, be courageous, be strong.--1 Corinthians 16:13
