Teacher: The Beloved One.
Subject: A Matter of Priorities.
Message received by Lytske.
The Beloved One: To live a life of prayer, is a life lived close to heaven. It is a life during which soul-rest is experienced. And if persisted with, such a life would be an island of peace in a very chaotic world, where in every way materialism is clamoring for attention.
Be such a refreshing oasis amid the dry desert sands of life, and withstand the blinding sandstorms that threaten to engulf you. Be a light beacon in the storm. You can be all of this, when you are in a prayerful connection with Me.
You see, My beloved, what a blessing you can be when you live such a God-centered life when you place Me first above everything else.
The vicissitudes of life do not come near you, as you are safely ensconced in the bastion of your soul. The problems of life will not nearly affect you as much, as they do others, who are not safely anchored in Me.
Most problems stem from unconscious choices and decision making. In retrospect these serve as lessons to a greater awareness in conscious living. Because of this, better choices and decisions can be made, ultimately leading to a life lived in prayer, rather than a life blown about by desert sands, or surging waves that threaten to engulf and vanquish those who are not secure in Me.
When more Stillness is practiced, the storms of life will be easier to take as a calm center develops, which is being nurtured on a consistent basis. It is all a matter of where you place your priorities.
Truly My beloved, such a life lived in prayer is a blessing for the entire planet.
