Inner Michael » A Merry Pay-it-Forward Christmas Message

A Merry Pay-it-Forward Christmas Message

I want you to know that the Inner Michael family, whether you are new or have been here a thousand times is each one, cherished as a unique person and for their singular contribution to the planet. This family has a common denominator and it’s called LOVE. Love for a human, the human family, the animals of Earth, the earth herself, for all sentient beings and the land that remembers.

We read in many scriptures and faith traditions about “Christmas.” For Christianity, it is the story of Jesus, his family and his birth. The literal story is that Mary, great with child was ready to deliver her baby and there was no room for her in the inn and nowhere to rest and birth her child. Metaphorically, it is a message about the world not being ready to receive the Christ child. Eventually in the night, the family finds room in a stable intended for animals and the animals make room for his humble birth from humble beginnings. It is the story of the Christ being born in humility and rising to teach love and find glory. The Christ Child is born in darkness from humble beginnings among not humans, but animals. Metaphorically, the humans did not make room for him among their kind and he was born among “animals” (think about it.)

“Christmas” or the celebration of that birth is called by many names and couched in many writings in many languages and it involves a rise from the darkness and a representative birthing of the new. The message hidden in the words, if you will but look closely is “Christ-mas.” A mass or celebration of the Christ. And the “Christ” is the name for the arisen one, the one who embodies the highest Self, the realized potential for the full expression of the god-within to express in the world. It is to reach for, embrace, embody and then extend our Christ within and make it active in the world. It is to stand in, become and then be our light as a beacon that shines on others allowing them to shine too. It is to express the god-created and god-generated holy of holies in the world– a divine love that radiates from the human heart and embraces all of creation.

The Inner Michael family shares an admiration not for a man so much as what he stood for and what he demonstrated in his life and message. He cared. And in this world of indifference and cynicism we hold fast to the idea that caring is still very much in vogue and is the path to salvation. We care: for one another, for the children of tomorrow, for the planet, for self and for the future. It is our ability to care that binds us and bonds us. “Inner Michael” is a metaphor for the Christed-self arising from within. It is the longing to express the brilliance, not the shadow. It is a striving to embrace and arise to become our best divinely-inspired self. Tt is the dove (Holy Spirit) that lands on the shoulder, captures the heart, and melds with the flesh. It is to fully embrace our destiny; it is to find our way home. It it the birth of the soul-infused personality.

 

We, as keepers of the LOVE, will strive to suspend judgment, become our best self and to share that shining self with the world. We try to remember that our wounds are not a sin or punishment, but a call to growth as human beings and to become more. We acknowledge that we all feel a stirring to remember what we came here to do and a magnetic pull to our personal mission and destiny and an internal knowing that we, separately and together, are meant to leave our mark to create the world a better place.

We speak this as a prayer that places the heart frequency of love on perpetual motion and held as holy in the minds and hearts of the Inner Michael family, and thus in the world. May we all have a wonder-filled Solstice, Hannukah, Kwanzaa and Christmas, and may we begin the New Year tranformation in 2012 with a belief in magic– the potential magic of humans and humanity.

Your love is magical. A sincere blessing and wish for LOVE made manifest from Inner Michael. The world awaits your gift.

My gift to you: A prayer and a wish to remember:

 

Wishing you a Magical Christmas
