Message from Matthew
August 18, 2019
With loving greetings from all
souls at this station, this is Matthew. We have had lifetimes on
Earth or other worlds in foment and we know how difficult it is to see souls
enduring extreme hardships and not feel sadness, distress and perhaps anger
about the circumstances causing those. It is very difficult to keep in mind
that most of them chose the experiences to complete third density karmic
lessons so they can advance to fourth density spiritually and consciously.
Not for a moment are we suggesting
being insensitive to lives near or far distant! Earth is known as one of the
universe’s finest “emotional schoolhouses” because life there offers endless
opportunities to learn, for instance, that joy enhances all aspects of life.
Greed breeds contempt whereas generosity uplifts the hearts of givers and
receivers. Compassion, forgiveness and gratitude are qualities to treasure.
Laughter lightens the heart. Anger and deception can have grave consequences.
Self-love and self-respect enable loving and respecting
others.
Why are we speaking of this?
Because everything on Earth is in acceleration mode, which is magnifying all
feelings, and being emotionally drawn into the plights of others doesn’t end
the situations causing their hardships. Only the power of light can do that,
and there is no light in the emotions that world affairs are evoking in many,
many people. The universal law of attraction can’t distinguish between what
they do want and what they don’t—it brings back from the “universal soup” what
most closely matches the energy they’re sending out.
This is why, beloved sisters and
brothers, the light you are radiating is as essential in this moment as it has
been all along in awakening Earth’s peoples and fortifying the efforts of all
who are determined to right the world’s wrongs. Day by day you are helping them
manifest Earth’s destiny: A peaceful world where everyone shares in its
abundance and life is in harmony with Nature—the world that already is
flourishing in fullness in the continuum.
“The increase of racial, ethnic,
religious and cultural intolerance around the world is alarming. What can we
lightworkers do to stop this hatred and bigotry from spreading further?”
First, let us mention the
corruption, deception and greed that is being revealed in governments,
multinational corporations and their controlled mainstream media. You tend to
think of those as gigantic impersonal entities rather than what they
comprise—millions of individuals with differing interests, ideas, opinions,
beliefs and behavior. Collectively, those millions influence—it is not an
overstatement to say control—life on Earth, however unwittingly on
the part of all except those in the entities’ top ranks who have dark minds and
hearts.
And, let us repeat the beginning of
a previous message:
We
have been asked if there is one particular aspect of life on Earth that
lightworkers can focus on and speed the civilization’s evolution. For untold
ages civilizations on the planet were devolving due to their
inhumane treatment of each other and the animals. Therefore, that behavior’s
opposite—love, kindness and respect for all life—must be the pathway to a
civilization’s evolution.
Now then, as a civilization
evolves, its world evolves correspondingly. And vice versa. What you are
observing firsthand, so to say, is a primary reason that Earth’s once
spiritually, consciously and technologically highly advanced civilization
started devolving. When dark forces’ puppets manipulated the DNA of
inexperienced civilizations, they removed knowledge of the Oneness of All,
wherein all is love, and instilled fear and hatred of “different.” Ever since
some of those souls incarnated on Earth eons ago in your concept of time, those
feelings have grown as each generation ingrained them in the next.
So, it’s not that bigotry and
hatred are starting to increase, but rather that incidents arising from them
are in the glare of a global spotlight, where all can see their destructiveness
and divisiveness. This frailty that the darkness inculcated in physical makeup
had to be brought to light so the deep ages-old wound it has caused can be
healed. And healing is happening—residents in communities directly affected by
the tragic incidents are responding to hatred by uniting in love and people
around the world are joining with them.
Lightworkers, you have been aiding
the healing process all along by BEing the love-light that is the foundation of
world transformation. A world doesn’t change by wishing it so—it is the power
of love-light within the peoples that initiates and propels benevolent
changes.
“Please talk about the plight of
animals on Earth, especially the ones being raised for profit. Their suffering
is so extreme and they are so innocent.”
This is inextricably intertwined
with why Earth’s civilization started to devolve. Often we have spoken about
animals, and I asked my mother to copy some passages of previous messages:
As
consciousness-raising continues, people will learn that animal souls, not only
human souls, evolve, and they deserve the same care and respect as humans. Some
animals—usually those who are pets—are aspects of human souls who chose to
experience in an animal body, and even when this isn’t the case, they have
emotional and characteristic ranges similar to humans’, lacking only acquired
traits such as tact, deception and wiliness. The higher orders of
animals need to give and receive love as much as humans—in many cases, they do
so more readily and loyally—and even those in the lower orders form bonds with
people who tend to their needs. When we tell you that every soul is a part of
God and all souls are One, this includes animals.
***********
At
soul level animals are aware of the angelic benevolence on their
behalf. Even those whose lives are miserable have an angel force or
influence to ease discomfort or end terribly painful physical
lives. Some angels have greater numbers of animals or more
intelligent ones to protect than others, but no angels’ responsibilities are
more important than any other’s because all of those lives are meaningful in
the universal balancing of animal energy.
The
angels bring a sense of unity to their respective animals to preserve the
species, but it isn’t their prerogative to wipe off the face of Earth those
humans who are cruel to individual animals or even an entire
species. Environmentalists who are acting in good faith—that is, not
for selfish political, personal or economic reasons—are being inspired in their
efforts by the animals’ angels.
***********
During
the seventy-some years Earth has been on her ascension course, the light has
been raising the consciousness of your society to see animals’ critical
importance in the balance of all life on
Earth.
After
some voices proclaimed that animals have the right to be treated humanely and
with dignity and respect, groups started forming to act upon that premise; and
a few courageous individuals were inspired to live in the wild and record their
observations of specific species. Those beginnings burgeoned into today’s
local, national and international organizations with the mission of saving
animals and their native habitats. Some are making or expanding preserves for
injured and orphaned wild animals, others are operating shelters or rescue and
rehabilitation programs for maltreated domesticated animals, and many people
are financially supporting these groups.
Outrage
about inhumane conditions under which food animals live and die is forcing
improvements in those areas. Zoos are creating or enlarging wildlife
surroundings for their animals and breeding programs are saving endangered
species. Circuses are responding to pleas to care for their animals
conscientiously and kindly. National laws prohibit the export of native
animals; part of enforcing anti-poaching laws is helping poachers find other
livelihood; laws require breeders of pets to meet higher standards.
Extensive
research into animal behavior, intelligence and communication is showing their
similarity to you in those respects. Increasing numbers of companion
animals are being adopted; school children are being educated about the need to
spay and neuter pets as well as their proper healthcare and
nutrition. Many petitions advocating for animals’ wellbeing are in
circulation—the very act of signing a petition sends forth light streamers—and
the Internet abounds with films and photos showing cross-species friendship,
even in the predator-prey chain, as well as some wild animals’ willingness to
befriend humans.
Thank you, Mother. We ask that you
give special attention to the last passage because all of your correspondence
pertaining to animals over the years has been filled with despair about them.
Dear ones, please heed what we said earlier in this message about the law of
attraction—focus on the significant advancements on their
behalf! And in the years since we enumerated some, many more beneficial changes
in animals’ lives have come about.
Raising your vibrations by feeling
grateful for these improvements will help to expand these kinds of programs and
speed the progress of all efforts. Envision lions, giraffes, elephants,
donkeys—all animals you call undomesticated or working breeds—in golden white
light in jungles, forests, deserts, plains, fields and polar regions, and
marine life in crystal clear waters. Do the same with cattle and horses in
pastures, pigs and poultry running freely on farms, all companion animals
happily living in loving homes. Visualizing thusly produces
great amounts of light!
If you can, participate in local
animal welfare groups or financially support them or projects that are national
or international in scope. Indeed choosing vegetarian or vegan diets is
helpful, but please know that some animal species lovingly made soul level
agreements with humankind to provide nourishment in exchange for a good life
and a merciful ending. So that people know of this agreement and fulfill their
part, the ever-intensifying light is raising awareness worldwide that treating
animals with kindness, respect and gratitude is a paramount factor in
humanity’s wellbeing.
Beloved brothers and sisters, when
you return to the worlds you voluntarily left to help Earth’s peoples,
you will see how diligently, bravely and steadfastly you accomplished your
mission. All light beings in this universe honor your invaluable service and
support you with the power of unconditional love.
