Every soul has something to share. There are gifts and possessions on many different levels. You may not have material gifts bout you may be sure you have other gifts, whatever they are. Hold them not to the self but be willing to bring them out into the open, uncover them and then use them as they should be used, never for the glorification of the self but always to My honour and glory. Possess nothing, but use and enjoy all you have to the full. What have you to give? Take time to find out, if you do not know. Give whole-heartedly and give with joy, and be grateful that you have something to give, whatever it may be. When you have chosen to live this way of life completely dedicated to Me and to My work, you can no longer cling onto anything. Realise that all you have is Mine, and therefore it is there to be shared with the whole.
每一個靈魂都有某些事情可以去分享。有些天賦與所有物,是在很多不同的層面的。
我可能沒有物質的禮物,但我或許能夠肯定自己有其他的禮物,無論它們是什麼。不要將它們抓在自我手中,而是願意將它們帶出去,帶入敞開的(地方),揭開它們的掩蓋,然後以它們本應被使用的方式去使用它們,從不為了對自我的讚頌,而一直都是為上天的榮譽與榮耀。
不去佔有任何事物,而是全然地使用與享受我所擁有的一切。
我需要給出些什麼呢?如果我還不知道,就花時間去找出來。全心全意地給予,並帶著愉悅地給予,為我有能夠給予的事物感到感恩,無論它可能是什麼。
當我選擇了去活出這種生活方式,全然地奉獻於上天及上天的工作時,我就不再會去抓取任何事物。要意識到,我所擁有的一切都是上天的,因此它是被放在那分享給整體的。
