You Have Chosen To Remember

April 29 - Making the Choice for Joy Get your free daily inspirational messages via email - subscribe at https://www.chosentoremember.com/subscribe/ ... In every moment, the choice between joy and judgment is ours to make, thanks to free will. We have the ultimate power and responsibility to make our day, and thus our life, brighter, more joyful and peaceful — or darker, more judgmental and chaotic. Our day starts off as a blank canvas, with many brushes in front of us to choose from. Two such brushes are joy and judgment. In each moment, we choose which brush to use. When we choose to pick up the brush of joy, our canvas becomes an expression of the love that is our true essence and nature. When we choose to pick up the brush of judgment, we reap the darkness that our choice sows. This is not done as a form of punishment, but to help us better understand how our choices are coloring our experiences. Today, let us recall that, in every moment, God’s gift of free will gives us the right and ability to begin anew. In any moment, we can choose joy over judgment and thus peace over pain. Today, if you find yourself aligned with the ego’s judgment-centered mindset, do not put yourself or others down. Instead, use it as an opportunity to practice using free will to align your mind with your loving essence and nature. The life you desire to create is always just a choice away. The brushes of forgiveness, peace and joy, as expressions of Love, are available for you to choose from in every moment. You make the final choice of which brushes to pick up and use, and thus what kind of day you will create and experience. Breathe deeply, choose wisely and create the kind of world that you would love for your children to inherit. ...

April 28 - Remembering Your True Value Get your free daily inspirational messages via email - subscribe at https://www.chosentoremember.com/subscribe/ ... Regardless of how you have been programmed to see your life, you and every part of it has been of, and is of, value. If you experience something, then it has served a purpose. Rest assured that the Divine, being Love and All, can and does use all for good. All of your experiences come to you in order to help you grow, heal and awaken. In truth, Love and its numerous expressions are what are valuable. They are all aspects of your eternal essence and nature. Anytime you are thinking, feeling or expressing love through any of its forms, you are aligning with and reinforcing your true treasure. Your true value and treasure is the love that you are, have always been and will always be. Your true value and treasure is not something that can be taken away from you. Today, let us recall that we are God’s treasure, love in physical form. Our divine essence and nature is what is truly valuable. Today, let us no longer doubt our worth or value. Let us shine our love and light bright, in our own unique ways, in order to remember who we truly are and our value to God and this world. Being all One, let us be sure to see everyone’s worth and value. By doing so, we will reinforce and strengthen our own. The more we get to share the love that we are with others, the more we will understand how incredibly worthy and valuable we are. The more we recognize, share and trust in our value, the more worthy of God we will feel — and the more we will then allow God, Love, Light, to flow through us and throughout our day. ...

April 27 - Every Day You Create Your Own Individualized Workshop Get your free daily inspirational messages via email - subscribe at https://www.chosentoremember.com/subscribe/ ... No matter what dark, tumultuous tunnels the ego tries to have you travel through, as God’s creation, you have a natural pull toward the light — toward a more balanced, peaceful, forgiving, joyous and loving life. Every day, unconscious of it as you may be, you and God have co-designed the journey you are now on. You and God have co-designed an individualized growth workshop to help you heal and awaken. For example, if you have bought into the ego’s darkness and are supporting its tool of judgment, then you will bring someone into your experience who will help you work through that delusion. What or who you bring into your daily experience is all a part of your personalized spiritual growth workshop. It is designed with your specific growth, healing and awakening process in mind. Today, remember that each situation and relationship you experience is part of a sacred and individualized workshop that you have co-designed with God. God, being Perfect, only creates perfectly. Whenever you doubt yourself or your workshop, simply remind yourself that you have co-designed it with God. Everyone in your workshop heard your soul’s call for help and healing, and courageously answered your call. These are the people who are in your life now. Offer them your gratitude, not your judgment. In essence, they are a gift from God to you, and you are a gift from God to them. The sooner you realize this, the sooner you will have gratitude, peace of mind, joy, compassion, harmony, forgiveness and understanding as your companions. ...

April 26 - The Illusion of Judgment Get your free daily inspirational messages via email - subscribe at https://www.chosentoremember.com/subscribe/ ... The ego’s judgment-centered programs and mindset have no control over you – other than the control that you give to them. Knowing this, when other people judge you, say to yourself what a great man once said, “Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.” Then simply forgive their misperceptions of you. Let go of their judgments of you — and of your judgments of them for judging you. For what could the false concept of judgment possibly be when God is Love, Truth and All? There can be no opposition to Love which is All. Thus in truth, there can be no such thing as judgment. If in truth there is no such thing as judgment, then what need would you ever have for it or to defend yourself against it? Judgment of self and others is simply a sign of one who has temporarily forgotten their true essence and nature. Today, let us recall that because God is Love and All, judgment, placing itself in opposition to Love, cannot be real or true. This makes judgment illusionary in nature. We enhance or diminish an illusion’s effect on our life by how much we focus on it. Today, when a judgment of self or others pops into our mind and demands to be recognized and fed, we simply decline its request to enter by overlooking or forgiving it. If we feel that we are not yet able to do that, then let us visualize handing our pain and anger over to God, and visualize and feel them dissolving before His mercy and light. Then let us pray for those who have judged us or for those whom we have judged. If we cannot yet do that, then let us ask God to do this for us until we can feel and understand the wisdom of our Divine path. ...

April 25 - Receiving Peace by Seeing it in “Others” Get your free daily inspirational messages via email - subscribe at https://www.chosentoremember.com/subscribe/ ... Today, when we interact with people, let us take a moment to acknowledge that they are not in our presence by chance. They have been gifted to us, and us to them. We can reach a higher level of consciousness by acknowledging that what we see in each other is a reflection of our own internal condition. What we project onto others is based on how we choose to define this world. This awareness helps us better understand the false beliefs that we are holding within that are separating us from the state of peace. Being all One, it is what is within us that we can see projected onto others. Being God’s creations, in truth, all we can ever be is the Love that God is. And peace is an expression of God’s love. Today, let us practice increasing our level of peace by offering it to others. Before we have contact with anyone, let’s remind ourselves: “Above all else, peace is my goal for this interaction. Knowing that we are all One, what I offer others, I reinforce within myself. What I offer others must first flow through me. Thus, it is I who is responsible for my own level of peace or pain. Today, let me thank, not judge, those who are helping me practice choosing peace instead of pain. As I make the choice for peace, I strengthen and reinforce my sense of being worthy of peace. Now I know that being One with the state of peace is a reflection of my own choices and efforts. Now I know that those who challenge my peaceful state are simply helping me practice choosing, and thus reinforcing, the peaceful person that I want to be.” ...

April 24 - The Relationship Between Forgiveness, Setting Loving Boundaries, & Being Taken for Granted Get your free daily inspirational messages via email - subscribe at https://www.chosentoremember.com/subscribe/ ... The more you choose forgiveness over judgment, the more you are choosing peace over pain. The more you make the conscious choice for peace, which is an extension of the Love that created you, the stronger your foundation and conscious connection to God becomes. The stronger your foundation, the more confidence and trust you will have in your own decision making skills. The more confident and trusting you are in your own decision making skills, the better, more loving and self-loving parameters you will set. The better, more loving and self-loving boundaries you set, the less others will be able to take you for granted. The less others can take you for granted, the less they will try to take you for granted. The less others try to take you for granted, the fewer people you will have to forgive. Today, let us recall and reinforce the idea that forgiveness and setting clear, self-loving boundaries are not mutually exclusive. Forgiveness, setting clear boundaries and not being taken for granted are all expressions of someone who loves and respects themself. Because we are all One, someone who truly loves and respects themself can set boundaries while still being loving and respectful to others. This in turn will help bring the world to a more loving and respectful place. When you are being self-loving, such as through the act of setting clear boundaries or making sure that you are not being taken for granted, you are not being weak, mean or selfish. These are acts of self-love; and because we are all One, these acts not only benefit you, but they also benefit all those around you. ...

April 23 - You are the Gatekeeper of Your Kingdom Get your free daily inspirational messages via email - subscribe at https://www.chosentoremember.com/subscribe/ ... There is a kingdom within you, that only you can rule. Today, let us start to take greater personal responsibility, for being the gatekeepers of our kingdom. Let us ask ourselves, who/what are the inhabitants/thoughts, that we are allowing to enter our kingdom? For it's the inhabitants within our kingdom, that provide the fuel and energy that powers our words, feelings, emotions, actions, reactions and interactions. It is us who must decide what kind of support we offer any specific thought. If we place our time, focus and energy, on a thought, it grows. By growing the thought, it becomes a bigger part of our day, and if we continue to support it, it then becomes a bigger part of our life. It is the thoughts that we allow into our kingdom, that end up shaping our experience and destiny. Today, let us start to really notice, how much power we have, over the life and destiny that we create and thus experience. The more you realize the true power that you have, the less willing or interested you will be in judging this world or those in it, the more peace of mind and joy, you will begin creating and thus experiencing in your life. Love, is the primary expression of our Creator, the more we choose to create as He creates, the more empowered and fulfilled, we will feel and become, the less others judgments of us, will affect us. The less others judgments affect us, the more we will see how little reality and strength, the ego’s judgment based mindset has over us, the more in control we will feel, and the greater and more responsible guardian of our kingdom, we will become. ...

April 22 - Why We Sometimes Feel Lost and Confused Get your free daily inspirational messages via email - subscribe at https://www.chosentoremember.com/subscribe/ ... Imagine, equating your life to a dream. During a dream, regardless how real, frustrating or scary it seems, most of us do not realize that we are dreaming. It is only after we awaken from the dream, that we fully realize the illusionary nature and absurdity of the dream. Equally so, in life many times we ‘act’ like someone who deep down inside we know we are not. When in life we live in fear, or when fear’s expressions such as judgment, stress, anger, resentment and hate, seem to consume us, we are actually living unconsciously, asleep within the dream. When in life we choose to be right instead of happy, hold unto resentment instead of freeing ourselves through forgiveness, condemn others instead of have compassion for them, these are all symbols that we are asleep within the dream. Today, let us recall, that feeling lost and confuse, does not mean that there is something wrong with us, or that we are not wise, spiritual or good enough, these feelings are simply symbols that we remain asleep to our true nature. All the experiences within the dream have brought us a this place within our minds, where we now desire to awaken. Understanding this, let us now offer them our gratitude for their participation in our dream and in our awakening. When you offer gratitude to all those you once judged, this is a symbol of an awakening mind. Gratitude, peace, clarity, are expressions of Love, of the awakening mind. The more we choose to align with any of the symbols of the awaken mind, the less lost and confused we will feel, until one day those lost and confused feelings, will fade away. ...

April 21 - The ‘Act’ of Anger Get your free daily inspirational messages via email - subscribe at https://www.chosentoremember.com/subscribe/ ... If you feel anger towards another, you are not actually angry with them, you are angry at ‘your perception’ of them. When you ‘act’ through anger you are unconsciously disagreeing with God/Source, that highest part of you who only sees your sister and brother as His perfect creation. It is in such a mental state where inner conflict and confusion results and where you will feel unsure and off balance. Enough time spent in such a state will result in increasing levels of anxiety, fear, and internal conflict and chaos. It is by supporting such states with your time, energy and focus that peace will seem more and more difficult to reach or find. We are all One, our truth is loving, compassionate, and forgiving, thus when you are not seeing another in this manner, it is because you are not fully aligning with your highest self. Today we practice listening to our highest self that is always calling for realignment with Source, for becoming the expressions of love, compassion, and forgiveness. It is when we begin to listen to the truth within that anger begins to dissolve and clarity, balance, and peace begin to once again shine through. ...

April 20 - What Time Is to Eternity Get your free daily inspirational messages via email - subscribe at https://www.chosentoremember.com/subscribe/ ... During a dream, I placed a towel onto the surface of a deserted, endless beach and it became a symbol to me of what time is to eternity. A symbol of what judgment is to forgiveness, pain to peace, and condemnation to compassion. The truth within us is eternal — forever changeless in its perfection. Yet the ego thought it noticed a blink in eternity’s eyes and decided to call it time. Within the illusionary concept of time, we have been programmed to believe that we are something other than God’s eternal loving essence. Having bought into this fairy tale called time, we have also bought into the characters within the fairy tale. Some of these characters go by the names of judgment, anxiousness, anger, resentment, fear, hate and revenge. None of these represent our eternal nature. Today, let us practice recognizing some of the symbols of time and eternity. Time is a symbol of the ego, of the body, of what seems to wither away, die and be no more. Eternity is a symbol of God, the everlasting loving essence that flows through and fuels our souls. Judgment, fear and a desire for separation fuel the ego’s mindset. Peace, joy and union are fueled by love, by the eternal in us. When you are aligning with any of Love’s expressions, you humbly represent God on Earth. Today, if you find yourself out of alignment with the Divine, do not despair or judge yourself as unworthy. Instead, use this self-awareness to remind yourself that you are somewhere you do not belong. Then take a deep breath, become present and align with your eternal loving essence. ...

April 19 - You Are Never Alone Get your free daily inspirational messages via email - subscribe at https://www.chosentoremember.com/subscribe/ ... You may sometimes feel lonely, but you are never alone. It is because God has whispered in your ear that it is time to awaken, that you have now chosen to open your eyes. As your eyes open, you see that every time the sun is birthed from the ocean, She trustingly and lovingly delivers into your waking arms, a brand new day. When its light brightens your face, and its touch warmth your heart, it is Source that you are feeling. Every breath you take, is Him sharing with you, how much you are needed here now on Earth. And so understand, that there is not one breath that you have ever taken, without God’s knowledge. Remember this, and know that you are not alone. The journey you are now on, is the one that you have co-created with God, and so every step you take, He takes with you. Today, let us recall, that it is possible to feel alone, but that it is not possible to be alone. God is Love and All, and so anywhere you are, God is. Feeling lonely is just a symbol that you valuing the ego’s mindset more than God’s. God is All, and therefore, the ego’s world is nothing, and so if you are focused on nothing, then yes, loneliness will appeal to you and appear to be real. Today, use the feeling of loneliness, as a personal call from God to you, asking you to return home to Him. If you can start using the feeling of loneliness in such a manner, it will become a way for you to leave a darken mindset and return to being at One with The Light. The more you dismiss the ego’s mindset and connect with The Whole, the more normal, natural and right, it will feel to be One with The Whole, and the less alone you will feel. ...

April 18 - Building a World Without Fear as its Foundation Get your free daily inspirational messages via email - subscribe at https://www.chosentoremember.com/subscribe/ ... Today we practice letting go of fear. Stress, anger, resentment, and thoughts of revenge, are all forms, extensions and expressions of fear. The ego has taught us that these expressions are ‘normal’ and ‘natural’ solutions to our experience, yet where has the ego’s ‘solutions,’ its dead end roads ever taken us? Today let us try the opposite of what has taken us nowhere we desire to be. Today when the ego calls out for anxiousness and stress, we reverse the ego’s thinking and see them as our personal calls to develop greater trust in God’s plan. When the ego calls out for anger, resentment, and thoughts of revenge, we again reverse the ego’s thinking and see them as our personal calls to practice forgiveness. This practice will help us build a new foundation. Today all people, places, things, are providing us the time, material, and opportunity needed to build this new state of mind. Now instead of allowing fear to be the focus of our day or the reason we cannot sleep at night, we offer gratitude to, and develop appreciation for, all people, places, things, who have volunteer to help us shift our perceptions, heal, and build this new foundation. ...

April 17 - Overcoming the Idea of Death Get your free daily inspirational messages via email - subscribe at https://www.chosentoremember.com/subscribe/ ... Your birth was not your beginning, and neither shall your death be your end. As God’s creations, extensions and expressions, we are what He is, and thus if God is eternal, then so to are we. God is Love, and thus this is who we are, this is our eternal essence, and the more we make the conscious effort to align with our eternal essence, the more we will realize that this is truly so. Today, let us make the conscious choice, to begin to overcome the idea of death, by first setting aside the ego’s illusionary old paradigm. Our eternal essence, our true nature, has nothing to do with dust, and so the truth in us will never return to dust. Our eternal loving essence, was long before it chose to be in a physical body, and it will be, long after it chooses to leave it. We need not die, to start reflecting Heaven on Earth. Today, let us recognize, that in every moment, we make the choice, consciously or not, between being a representative of death or of Eternal Life. Let us today, practice becoming aware of some of the symbols that represent death and Eternal Life. Judgment of self and others, frustration, anger, anxiousness, hate, resentment, and revenge, all these are symbols of death, symbols of one who has bought into the ego’s mindset. Love and all its expressions, such as those of peace, joy, compassion, forgiveness, and charity, are all symbols of the truth in us, of eternal life. Free-will allows us to choose, in every moment, which road to take. Today, if you find yourself on a road that you do not want to be on, do not despair, simply recall that you have free-will, and thus that you can always, simply choose, once again. ...

April 16 - You are the Author of the World You See Get your free daily inspirational messages via email - subscribe at https://www.chosentoremember.com/subscribe/ ... When you awaken you will recall that you were the author of your dream, not just a victim or a lonely figure in the dream. When awaken and the understanding of Oneness returns, she remembers that the figures in the dream are not separate entities from her, but actually extensions and expressions of the dreamer. If the dreamer has a peaceful mind, she will see and interact with more peaceful figures. If the dreamer has a chaotic mind, her figures will appear more chaotic. All the pain, suffering, stress, and anxiety in our minds are caused by our reactions to these figures, figures that we ourselves have helped define. Once the lesson that we are simply reacting to figures in our dreams is recalled, we will forgive and released them from all we thought they did to us. We recognize that, because we have done this to ourselves, we also have the power to undo what we have done. Today let us awaken to our true power by remembering that we are the authors of our dream, and thus have the ultimate say of how we choose to act, react, interact, and participate in our world. ...

April 15 - Aligning With Your Life’s Purpose Get your free daily inspirational messages via email - subscribe at https://www.chosentoremember.com/subscribe/ ... Only you can accomplish what you have come here to do. Set aside the world’s definition of success and failure, for they are both but delusions within the ego’s mindset, that we have been programmed to believe as more real than the perfect and sacred journey that we have co-created with God. Instead, make the conscious choice to focus on what personally aligns you with Love's expressions, such as those that brings you peace, joy, passion and fulfillment. What do you personally enjoy doing and are passionate about? What in your heart, mind and soul, brings you the most joy, peace and fulfillment? Every day take steps towards answering these questions, moving in their directions, and slowly you will begin to clarify your true calling, what you personally came here to do, your life’s purpose. Today, all that we are being ask to do is to focus on creating as God creates, through love. Whatever it is that personally aligns you with that loving sensation, is what you have come here to focus on and share. Know that however it is that your individual and unique expression of love chooses to manifest, that it is perfect for you and for this planet. No longer focus on what anyone else says that you should or should not be doing with your life. They do not know, for that knowledge is only within you, place there by your Creator. Trust this, that all the tools that you need, to do what you came here to do, are within you right now. Your divine purpose is already One with your heart, mind and soul, placed there by the Creator of the Universe, for you to deliver as a gift to this world. ...

April 14 - Consciously Freeing Ourselves from the Past Get your free daily inspirational messages via email - subscribe at https://www.chosentoremember.com/subscribe/ ... Today, let us not extend the past into the present and thus create a future like our past. Let us no longer allow the ego’s dark or negative thoughts to be given free rein to spoil our day, nor through our focus on them, give them the fuel and power, to take hostage our nights. Those darken and negative thoughts, are now in the past, where they belong, and the past in reality is gone, it is no more. It is only when we drag our past into the present, that we give it permission to rule over us. When this occurs, it is not us who are living our lives, it is our past programmed-self that is living it for us. Today, when the past tries to knock on our door, asking us to judge and condemn ourselves or a brother or sister, let us overlook the ego’s request, and allow God’s unconditional Love to answer. Today, let us practice becoming consciously aware, of when we are experience the eternal gift that is the present moment, or when we are stuck dragging the past into the present. When we are in the present moment, we find ourselves aligned with and experiencing Love’s expressions, such as those of peace, joy, compassion, forgiveness, hope and healing. When we are dragging our past programming into the present moment, we feel judgmental, frustrated, angry, stressed out, worried, resentful, jealous, hateful and revengeful. The idea is not to punish ourselves when we find that we are not in alignment with the present moment, the idea is to catch ourselves quicker and quicker when we are out of alignment, forgive ourselves and others for this, and correct our path to again align with the now. ...

April 13 - Setting Differences Aside and Supporting Our Sameness Get your free daily inspirational messages via email - subscribe at https://www.chosentoremember.com/subscribe/ ... Today, let us focus on and support, the eternal sameness in our souls, instead of the seeming temporal separateness of our bodies. Today, let us use God’s mercy and grace, to look beyond our brother's and sister’s temporal misperceptions, what their bodies think, say or do, and instead only focus on their eternal sacred changeless loving nature. They, just like you, have come here with the same mission in mind, to love and serve, to help and heal this world. Some of us have remembered our missions, others are in the process of remembering their missions, yet all are equally God’s children, and as such, they are all to be treated with mercy, grace, compassion and understanding. To accomplish our mission, we must first heal ourselves, by recognizing and learning to share, our true nature. Today, all we are being asked to do is to see God’s children as He created them. By doing so, we will begin to recall, who in truth we are. God’s mercy and grace looks upon all His children the same. Would it not make sense to at least to try to see God’s children as He does? Let us practice doing this, by overlooking everything that they think, say and do, that is not reflective of their loving nature, and focus only on the eternal sameness in our souls. When we make the conscious choice to overlook the illusion, we will begin to see the truth. When we make the conscious choice to no longer focus on nothingness, we will begin to see everything that is real. When we make the conscious choice to overlook who our brothers and sisters are not, we will begin to see them as they truly are. ...

April 12 - Revisiting ‘An Eye for an Eye’ Get your free daily inspirational messages via email - subscribe at https://www.chosentoremember.com/subscribe/ ... An eye for an eye’ is in no way an excuse for revenge. It is in no way a call to strike back at another for what you believe he or she has done to you. An eye for an eye simply reinforces the idea that we are all One, and thus what you do to “another,” you are doing to yourself. This thought will be best understood in the life review process that takes place after physical death. In it you will be shown, and you will be able to feel and experience, how the other person felt during your interaction. This is not done as a form of punishment, judgment or revenge, but as a learning device, to assist developing souls, more fully understand the consequences of their actions. Yet, we need not wait for our physical death, to experience right now how truly connected we are to each other. Today, let us recognize, that it is only those who play ‘an eye for an eye’ who are truly blind. Let us today not judge the blind, for that would make us blind ourselves. We are the children of The Light, and for us to recognize this, we must offer it, all that it represents, to all others. It is only when our light extends from us, that we get to see, share and experience it. The more we get to see, share and experience our light, the more worthy we will recall that we are of it. Remember that we are all children of The Light, forever worthy of The Light. Today, thank all others for offering you, the opportunities to see, share and experience your light, for helping you remember, that you are forever worthy of all that God is. Today, allow your love offerings to symbolize to you, that you are finally beginning to truly see. ...

April 11 - Judgment: The Battlefield Within our Minds Get your free daily inspirational messages via email - subscribe at https://www.chosentoremember.com/subscribe/ ... Imagine being a soldier trying to clear a “hostile” section of a block; you go room-by-room, house-to-house, with your gun in hand, tensed up, and ready to shoot back at any perceived attack. With every person, noise, or situation that’s out of the norm your training kicks in, adrenalin flows, defenses heighten and your attack begins. Even when we take this intensity down quite a few notches, is this not the way a great many people on this planet are living their lives? Do people not immediately judge and put up defenses against anything and anyone that does not fit into their mold of thinking or being. Is this not an exhausting way to live your life? Going into every room, every situation with judgments in hand ready to fire at anyone and anything that does not fit into the ego’s preprogrammed idea of what life should look like and how people should act, react, and interact. The start of most every battle we experience is not “out there,” it is within our mind. Today when the ego once again calls out for war, and it will, let us consciously pause our programed response, and consider giving peace a chance. ...

April 10 - Letting Go of Unloving Thoughts Get your free daily inspirational messages via email - subscribe at https://www.chosentoremember.com/subscribe/ ... If you are currently grappling with or holding onto unloving thoughts of yourself or others, today place your criticisms aside, and recall that such a moment is being offered to you, to help you practice recalling, that it is you who should have control over your thoughts, that your thoughts should not be controlling you. Today, instead of fueling the flames of anger, resentment and revenge, let us take these instances as opportunities to practice taking back control of our own thoughts, and thus of our own minds. Let us not put ourselves down for thinking unloving thoughts, instead let us see such instances, as opportunities to practice taking control of our minds, and thus of our own lives. Today, as God’s creations, let us choose not to hold unto or within us, anything that is not love. Today, let us be aware, that all and an unloving thought is doing, is helping us see, when we are allowing the ego to be in control of our thinking. Today, let our awareness of unloving thoughts, become the trigger, that calls us to take back control of our minds and lives. Using unloving thoughts in this manner, they become allies in our awakening process, and not our adversaries. Let us now offer our unloving thoughts gratitude, for helping awaken us, to who we no longer desire to be. Let us also be grateful to those individuals who bring up these unloving thoughts to our minds, for also helping us see, who we no longer desire to be. Those individuals that we once cursed, are now seen, understood, and appreciated, as our assistants on our journey to forgiveness, healing, peace and awakening. ...

April 9 - Awakening from the Dream of Judgment Get your free daily inspirational messages via email - subscribe at https://www.chosentoremember.com/subscribe/ ... Once you awaken, you will have no interest in judging those who sleep. For what use does judgment have, when we become aware that our sisters and brothers are simply unconsciously reading from a script, acting, programmed to recite lines from a fictional play, written by the ego, and for the ego. When you awaken, if you see others offering you something other than love and its expressions, such as kindness, generosity, forgiveness and compassion, you will know that they are simply dreaming, reading memorized lines from a fictional play not written by the eternal truth in them. Our eternal essence, Love, God, All, is free from judgment, because there can be no opposite to All. If there is no judgment, then the only time you can judge, or think that you are being judged, is when you are dreaming. Today let us begin to train our minds to say no to judgment, and no to all the frustration, anger, resentment, jealousy and hate that they bring into our lives. Today let us say no to punishing ourselves with our own thoughts, let us stop putting ourselves down. Today we remember that we are all One, and so let us decline when the ego demands we judge any of God’s creations. Every single time we reject the ego’s calls for judgment, let that signal to us, that we are on our way to awakening. Allow these small victories to bring joy to your heart and peace to your soul. Allow these feelings of joy and peace to begin reminding you of who you truly are, and so each day practice aligning with them more and more in order to help you fully awaken from the ego’s dream. ...

April 8 - Dedicating Your Day to Gratitude Get your free daily inspirational messages via email - subscribe at https://www.chosentoremember.com/subscribe/ ... Today, let us think, how many days in our lives have we actually woken up and made a conscious decision to dedicate that day to gratitude, to being grateful? Then, let us think back and ask ourselves, how many days, unconscious as it may have been, have we woken up and dedicated our day to worry, anxiousness, stress, judgment of self and others, anger, resentment, hate or revenge? Any time we are placing our time, energy and focus, on any thought, we are dedicating that day, or at least a part of that day, and thus a part of our lives, to that thought. Let us today recall, that thanks to free will, it is us and us alone, who decided what thoughts our days, and thus our lives, are dedicated to. Let us remember that what we dedicate our days to we become, and it is what we become that we will share with others. Today, let us see every interaction, as an opportunity, presented to us by God, to be grateful to all those in our lives, who are helping us become more self-aware. When we do so, when we share any of Love’s expressions, because we are all One, we ourselves will get to experience them. The more we experience them, the more fulfilled we will become, because in essence we will be doing what we have been created to do, to be and share love with all others. The more we share Love’s expression, the more our circle of Love increases, the more safe and secure we feel in this world, the more grateful we will become to God for our experience. This is what today you have the ability to begin to create, a life were Love’s expressions extend through you to all those you come into contact with. ...

April 7 - Laying Down the Sword of Judgment Get your free daily inspirational messages via email - subscribe at https://www.chosentoremember.com/subscribe/ ... Lay judgment down. Lay down your sword, for what peace or joy has your sword ever brought to you or to those around you? When you judge something or someone, know that it is not the divine truth in you that is doing so. The divine truth in you is Love, who is God and All. When you judge, you are reacting as you have been programmed by the false or ego-self to react. Being that God is Love and All, there is no place for judgment in the Divine, within All That Is. This is why the truth in you can neither judge yourself nor others. When you find yourself judging, that is your programmed self “acting” as it was taught by the ego to act. Your programmed self only exists in the ego’s illusionary world or fairy tale, where it can only seem to exist in opposition to All. Today, let us lead by example, drop our swords and shields, and decline the ego’s calls for war. When we do so, we are overlooking the false and seeing only the Divine as true. We are overlooking the ego’s programs and mindset, and trusting in God’s love and plan. Today, if you become aware that you are thinking judgmental thoughts, gently ask yourself, “Do I desire to continue to fight in the ego’s battlefields, or do I want the peace of God?” When we awaken from the ego’s dream, what use will we have for swords and shields if there are no battles left to fight? What use do we have for judging ourselves and others when God is Love and All? When we recall that only the false could try to place itself in opposition to the Divine? Today, freed from the ego’s mindset, let us choose forgiveness over judgment, peace over war, and divine truth over illusions. ...

April 6 - A Gift from the Physical World Get your free daily inspirational messages via email - subscribe at https://www.chosentoremember.com/subscribe/ ... Today, let us recognize, that the physical world is here as a gift to us, so that we may project unto it, the false concepts that remains hidden within our hearts and minds. If you see another person with anything other than love, such as through anger, jealousy or resentment, ask yourself these questions: “Who is the one who ends up holding unto and carrying these emotions?” “What is the ‘act’ of carrying these types of emotions around day and night doing to me?” Then ask yourself “Are feeling anger, jealousy, and resentment really worth more than my peace of mind and joy?" "Are anger, jealousy, and resentment a real part of me, or do they feel like I’m carrying around something that does not belong to me?" "Why should I continue to carry burdens that don’t belong to me?" Today, let us recall that Love is who we are, came here to be and represent. The physical world is here to show us when we are in or out of alignment, with our loving nature. The more quickly we can recognize when we are out of alignment with Love, the less time we have to sacrifice defending the ego’s judgment based mindset. The less we defend the ego’s mindset, the quicker its false concepts begin to dissolve from our lives. A doorway that get us from the ego’s chaos to the state of peace, is forgiveness. Today, when the ego demands judgment, let us instead offer forgiveness, over and over again, until we begin to recognize, the wisdom of this path. If we do not feel strong enough to forgive, then we ask God to forgive for us, and feel the peace that looking at this physical world through God’s eyes, offers us. ...

April 5 - Awakening to the Eternal Sameness in Each Other Get your free daily inspirational messages via email - subscribe at https://www.chosentoremember.com/subscribe/ ... Once we awaken, we will stop dreaming of ourselves as separate from each other. Once we are done dreaming that the seeming temporal separateness of our bodies is more real than the eternal sameness in our souls, we will start to see how aligned all of us and our journeys truly are. Once we stop dreaming, that what we think of, say or do to others, does not affect us, it is then that we will naturally desire to offer only peace, love and joy to all others. Offer peace, love and joy to another, and you too will feel those blessing filling your days and fulfilling you. Offer anger, resentment and hate, to another, and you shall carry the burden and heavy weight of those judgments. We have been gifted free will; we can in every moment, choose what we offer others, and thus what we end up experiencing. Today, let us notice, how we are actually creating, through our interactions with each other, through the thoughts, words and actions that we offer them, the path that we are experiencing. Do you not, as Love’s child, desire and deserve, a loving light filled joyous and peaceful path to walk on? Are we not all God’s children? Today, let’s experience our Oneness, the sameness in us all, by leading our brothers and sisters towards the light, and we too shall experience the light. But let us also understand, that if through free will, we lead them into darkness, then that is also what we will experience. Today, offer others what you yourself desire to experience, and allow the sameness in your experiences, to become a symbol to you, of our eternal connection to each other, of the sameness within us all. ...
