God’s Will:What is it?


People are often confused by what is meant by the “Will of God”. Many assume God would only want the best for us and would want to keep us from harm and evil. They often question why bad things happen to good people and why only the good die young, while many times the presumed bad often escape the consequences of bad behavior and poor judgment.

Even though it is hard to envision and understand in many instances, everything happens for a reason.Every circumstance in our life is presented for a purpose and given to us so we may learn and grow from it. Sometimes this is a hard lesson to learn and a big pill to swallow.

If one takes the time to look back through their life and is open minded about it, you begin to realize your most important  and valuable lessons in life were realized after and during some extreme hardship you encountered. We learn and grow more rapidly because of our so called negative experiences than from our positive encounters.

One often finds that if the lesson isn’t comprehended the first time, the same learning experience will be afforded to us again and again unit the course is finally understood, we take action to avoid the result of our actions and we move on.

Sooner or later one begins to realize we are responsible for our actions and our reality. Every situation in our life, we

, on some level of consciousness, create for ourselves so we may learn and grow from it.

This is a hard concept for most of us to comprehend when we are walking through the darkness and enduring much pain and suffering. Many wonder why they would voluntarily accept such agony in their life. This is something each soul has to come to terms with in their own way and time.
No one can walk the path for you, no one can fix your problems but you.

Humanity is continuously looking for someone to  rescue them, sorry it isn’t going to happen. Many great teachers have come and gone, and many wait for their return. The Mesoamericans were looking for a savior, when the one whom they thought was “the one”,  arrived he raped, killed and destroyed them.

The great teachers have shown us the way, it is up to the individual to follow their own path to return to the knowing of their power and ability to create the life they would desire, without all the drama.

When a soul suffers enough and realizes it is part of the Godhead, and thus deserves a more enjoyable existence. It will eventually find the way to a path that leads away from all the heartaches of life.

God’s Will is actually our will, he only presents opportunities for our life, it is our choice which one we accept. Regardless of what we choose, every circumstance is a learning experience from which we can learn much.

We all have free will, that is our birthright. It encompasses every aspect of our life. If we have the freewill to choose to have a hot
fudge sundae or a banana split, we also  have free will over every aspect of our life, you can’t pick and choose when to have free will or not have it.

If one chooses to not have free will, that only proves you have it. You can’t choose not to have it without having it  in the first place. God’s will is that we learn and grow and return to our birthright.

Is there life after death? Do we really have encounters with beings from other dimensions and planets? Is there proof?

2012, Are We Looking for a Savior


YOUR FAVORITE BELIZE SUPERSTORE

 

It seems humanity is always looking for a savior, someone to save them from themselves. This concept has gone on forever, from the beginning of time.

Every religion and culture has always looked to the heavens for someone of superior knowledge to lead the way to salvation. Many Christians look to Jesus and other religions and beliefs look to his counterpart as well, many look for some extraterrestrial being to land in a spaceship and whisk them away to a distant peaceful planet to live out the rest of the days of their existence.

At this particular period in time the Mayans are getting all of the press. Because the Mayan long calendar completes its cycle on December 21st, 2012, people again are looking for some miracle to occur.

The Mayas, as well as the Incas and Aztecs were looking for Quetzalcoatl, a white fair skinned  warrior to come and save them. Unfortunately for the Meso-Americans when  Cortez arrived, whom they had mistaken for Quetzalcoatl, he raped, massacred, robbed, and killed most of them.

In today’s world many people are looking for someone in government to “do it all” for them and create an environment where people will have to do very little and have the government provide all the trappings of a successful life without providing any effort.

People around the world and especially in America, “the shining city on the hill,” have forgotten where they came from. They have strayed from the teachings of the ancients. Just as the ancient Mayas and Australian Aborigines strayed and have lost their culture, so has the western world strayed from it’s roots.

There is an old saying that if one doesn’t believe in God, they believe in government, this is so true today, we see it everywhere.People keep putting their trust in elected officials who have the morals and ethics of an alley cat. The only value these officials have is the value of the  vote they can get because government has taken something  from one group that has worked very hard to earn it, and given it to another group who has done nothing but whine, thus making the receiver dependent
on the government and unable to survive without their assistance.

I have come to believe there is no savior, there are great teachers that lead the way, and when we listen to their words and advice, we will achieve salvation and a good happy life, but it is up to us to follow their wisdom. Didn’t Jesus say,”These things that I do, you can do also?” He also said,”The kingdom of God is within.”

We must learn, it is their wisdom and not them personally.This in no way lessens their importance or value, they were all great teachers, but no one can do it for you, you have to do it yourself.

Will there be a second coming? I believe the second coming is a personal thing, we each experience it individually, if a savior suddenly appeared, how would it change things, you would still have to get up and go to work tomorrow, and many would still doubt, the world’s population can’t even agree on whole the savior would be.

The second coming comes from within, God is within, we each carry a spark of God within us. Realizing we are a part of God and that we have direct access to his knowledge without outside assistance is paramount to our salvation and advancement as an enlightened being.

At this period of time in the history of man, there is probably more individual searching being done into the theories behind the origin of the human race, what happens after death, the possibility of life on other planets, and what our relationship is to these life forms, if they do exist. There are millions of people who are questioning the existence of God, who he really is, and what is my relationship with him? Is he someone who mysteriously floats around on a cloud watching and judging us from above like some bigger than life Santa Claus, or is he, like many of the esoteric sciences claim, a part of our inner Self, whom we have constant contact with, someone whom we and everything in the universe are connected and are thus one? Each of us in our own way is experiencing what God is, and thus we are each a part of God, thus we are God! This book is a brief account of my search for my own truth as I know it today, everything stated actually happened, according to my own perception. It has been an exciting search, at times very frustrating, very rewarding, and above all, very fulfilling. My main purpose in writing this book is to show that anyone, even a bashful unfamous country boy can have these awakenings, you don’t have to be rich or well-known to find your connection to Divine Source.

Available in both PAPERBACK and EBOOK formats.

Boynton Canyon:Sedona Arizona


One of the most mysterious areas any where in the world, Boynton Canyon symbolizes everything about the metaphysical world.

Boynton Canyuon
Strange Cloud over Boynton canyon Vortex

Located about six miles northwest of Sedona Arizona, and the site of Boynton Canyon Vortex, one should never be surprised at what is seen or experienced here. It is one of the most powerful areas around Sedona.

Over the years many strange happens have been attributed to the area. Even Enchantment Resort, the popular destination of many and a favorite hangout of the rich and famous, has it’s own history. Gardner Ranch or as it is named today, Enchantment Resort, has endured bankruptcy more than once, reputed to have been built over an ancient Indian burial ground the rumors persist.

Many people have entered Secret Canyon , never to be seen again. The latest, an experienced Park Ranger went hiking and disappeared completely. Search crews searched for days , dogs and helicopters were dispatched , all to no avail. Neither him or any remains were ever found.

A few years previous, a tourist made the remark that the last thing she wanted to do before leaving the area was to take a helicopter ride over the canyon. The helicopter crashed on the way back to the airport, thus it was the last thing she ever did. Be careful what you wish for.

It’s not uncommon for visitors to see, encounter and inter react with beings from other dimensions and planets. It happens almost daily, they can’t all be making it up.

Often times strange noises are heard , with no apparent origin. looking in the sky it isn’t unusual to see things that make no sense at all to the human mind, and many times one isn’t sure if something is seen or not.

Many walk away with either a new understanding of the universe, or completely confused and disoriented.

My main purpose in writing this book is to show that anyone, even a bashful unfamous country boy can have these awakenings, you don’t have to be rich or well-known to find your connection to Divine Source. I began taking notes for this book over thirty years ago, at the time, writing a book was the farthest thing from my mind. My only thought was to have a journal to read over when I got older. As a result, I didn’t record some of my references, many of the references were from Aboriginal and Mayan elders themselves, many of which has been the victim of the ravages of time. Hence my book is short on references, but long on experience, I hope you understand.
