The Truth about Universal Medicine 
I love the simplicity, purpose, and power in this blog, short, and to the point.
No ‘ifs’ or ‘but’s, just YES.
I love how our creativity can never re-write truth no matter how hard we try. It’s like, just surrender.
“How will your children ever know who they are if you are not fully you..?” How will anyone know who they truly are if we don’t take steps to live from our soulful essence as consistently as we can? It is a beautiful and very real responsibility.
Thank you Joel, as a Son of God the responsibility we are holding ourselves to shall always increase or expand, as our awareness of this fact expands within us. So finding our Godly feet and moving in the most loving ways will always be expansive for our awareness, thus reflecting this deepening level of Love to others.
It is incredible what we can do if we drop the reality we have created for ourselves.
Whenever I am looking for respite or relief it is a give away that I am not feeling my usual joyful self.
I love what is highlighted here – however much we try to dodge the fact, there it is presented to us in the next moment again and again: we are each a son of god, a point of light that can make a true difference in the world.
Yes realising that we are points of light that can make a difference stops the given up attitudes of ‘I can’t change anything’ or ‘ what’s the point?’
We are not always responsible, maybe we need to start living as the son of God we are, ‘we are each a son of god, a point of light that can make a true difference in the world.’
We can so easily get preoccupied with the busyness and push of day to day life, but no matter what the task or responsibility is, there is always a way that we can attend to it lovingly.
Oh, those buts. A three letter word with so much power to delay the truth of who we really are; sons of God. I used the “I need to attend another Universal Medicine workshop before I am ready to truly be me” for quite a few years before I woke up to the fact that my delay was not only harming me it was harming others. If I hear myself use ‘but’ these days it is a sure sign that I have not been consistent in my claiming of what I have to offer the world.
All the excuses in the world make no sense when we connect to being a Son of God.
Oh dear!, you are debasing all my excuses. What now? Nothing left but being the son of God and get on with living it.
The more distracted we are the further we delay finding the truth of who we are.
Time to drop all the excuses and just let ourselves be ourselves.
Return to who we are in truth, no buts, ‘we are each a son of god, a point of light that can make a true difference in the world.’
“You are a son of god, a point of light that can make a true difference in the world.” – yes but I still want to be irresponsible and create my own world of problems and issues.
You nailed it Joshua, because we are addicted to individuality.
Yes but…our spirit rejecting to live being a Son of God in full.
Love it Joel, short and succinct.
It’s kind of ridiculous that we make so many excuses to hold on to ways of being that we know deep down don’t work for us, instead of just embracing all that we are, and living from there- an easier and simpler way to be in the world, and perhaps that’s the point: we won’t let go and embrace the simpler, fuller way of living until we’re sick and tired of the way of living we’ve created and the way we’ve always done it.
I agree Bryony, it is absolutely ridiculous, but (there’s that word again!) we do just that. So, I have to ask myself, why have I been so scared of living the amazingness of who I am? After all, if each and every one of us lived the fullness of the amazing beings we all are, what an amazing world this would be.
It is crazy Bryony, holding onto a way of living that clearly does not work.
We are a ridiculous, and not so intelligent race of human beings; how long will it be before we embrace who we are in truth, and live with the joy and simplicity that then shines forth from there.
We keep ourselves so small when we don’t connect to the truth that we are a Son of God. Thank you Joel for such a simple yet powerful message in this blog.
It’s true, we have so many excuses but all we need is actually supplied because we are only vessels, and each vessel has equal access to expressing all that God is. As you say Joel all we need to do is stay connected to the right source and let the love through.
That is key, the source of energy we connect to, and so allow to run our bodies, ‘all we need to do is stay connected to the right source and let the love through.’
The excuses are not excusing us to not be who we are, even if we try hard.
I can feel how we try to buy ourselves time by coming up with as many yes-but’s as possible, but each time we come back to the same truth, and in fact we have not gone anywhere. It’s just God’s amazing genius how we have been allocated the concept of time. He knew we would be like this, didn’t He?
This really exposes the set up of life and how we constantly look forward to the next thing instead of looking within and bringing that out.
Eventually we will run out of “yes, but’s”. It is however important to see how many ‘but’s’ we put in the way of living who we are.
On first read I could relate to some of these excuses. Today, I could shake my head and say ‘not anymore’ however especially today I’ve had a whole bunch more of but’s come up. Regardless of what they are, they all feel stifling.
The fact the there is a ‘yes but’ shows there are two different energies, two different qualities we can choose to live by that are hugely contrasting and monumentally differing.
You have exhausted my ‘yes buts’ here Joel, I totally feel I am going for it and will remember this blog when a ‘yes but’ finds its way in again.
This is lovely Joel its so beautiful to read how the truth dissolves any excuses or doubt.
This is lovely Joel , living the light that belongs to all. What an opportunity .
We are the Sons of God and our responsibility is clear as to whether we are willing to live who we are or live who we are not, silenced and cloaked by the illusion of comfort that is found in the world of creation.
So True Joel, I have run out of excuses and it is time to stop and be part of the order of the universe and all the Love it shares.
The world and humanity needs us to live in our fullness, ‘You are a son of God, a point of light that can make a true difference in the world.’
No excuse in the world could ever fully justify choosing to not be love.
The spirit is a master at finding reasons and excuses not to reconnect to the full expression of the Soul.
Yes it sure is Victoria however never can it truly be the master, as we, our body and Soul, hold the upper hand in that our body will always reflect how uncomfortable it is to exist in disconnection to our Soul, to the oneness of all and God. We only need to be open to it’s ever-present guidance.
The spirit is all about delaying our return to the Soul.
I love this Joel, the breaking down of all the excuses for the question is how long can we choose to deny who we truly are? And why would we want to live life being anything other than who we truly are?
No more time for excuses (if there ever was). It is now time for the Son of God to grow up and become a God.
This is interesting
Brilliant – the laugh-ability of the human mind verses the grand multi-dimensional beings we are.
No matter how many excuses I have, God’s message is the same.
That’s true – we can build our whole life on excuses but ultimately we can only ever at best temporarily evade God’s message, it remains no matter what.
