Am I Ready? And Are You Ready?
As a former military man, I have a certain understanding and appreciation for the word “Ready” or “Readiness!” But what could the “Ready” actually mean in the human/Angelic experience? Preparation for things in life seems to call to an envelope of readiness, that is usually interpreted through a mental equation. The mind can think many things, as it creates an existence of its own outside the present moment.
People so often think that if they relinquish their control, they will somehow be caught as the recipient of bad things. There is so little trust within the world’s experience of the Creative Process. As man diligently works on his or her “faith in life” issues, a ride on the proverbial roller-coaster is unavoidable. The mind, while separating itself from the Creative Process, is completely subject to its own ignorance through self-created illusion.
I remember reading and hearing words of wisdom many years ago from a man named Arnold Patent. Mr. Patent basically said that life had very little to do with what we think, but everything to do with how we feel. Basically, Mr. Patent’s admission was that one should only proceed with something if one feels great about doing it!
Imagine, if we didn’t do anything without feeling great about it! What might that look like? Imagine, people creating, out of joy! Ah, yes, the mind of mankind swept up through the joy and celebration of the heart. I don’t know about you, but I like the sound of that.
So, I say unto you – “Are you ready?” Are you really ready to bring your brand of joy into the world? How about the idea of having fun through circumstances that you never enjoyed before? Don’t wait for the form to please you. Let the form enjoy You. You are your glorious Spirit in motion. As you let your joy come forth, it makes every form new.
When you realize how simple life actually is, you start realizing how silly we’ve been. It’s time to let yourself laugh at your own silliness. Not every moment in life is laughable, but how rarely humans experience life as hilarious. How serious we each can get about almost everything! Life has been doing just fine, long before we were born into the world. Being in awe, while living in discovery, is the ticket; it is a very light and transformational experience. How many things are there for each of us to still discover? Life’s wonders are infinite and creative. As I let my mind be available in the present moment, there is nothing to do but fully enjoy the blessed opportunity of expressing my spirit through joy and gratitude.
The Angel knows peace, joy, love, and thanksgiving through Spirit. Remember to move forward only as your heart is ready to Be all that… Just like the Army motto “Be all that you can Be!” “Being ready” can mean a whole new thing as the mind releases itself through Spirit! Are you ready? I Am!

I’m ready too! Better yet, the Beingness in the heart of me is and always has been ready; I have just not been adequately attuned to this inner core. Where has my attention been? Well, too much in the form of things, picking and choosing according to my developed tastes of like and dislike. One aspect of my consciousness might protest that it always tried to view things from a spiritual perspective, but trying is not being, just as form, separated from Spirit, is not alive.
I have discovered of late that as I turn my full attention to Life, open and welcoming of WHATEVER comes into my experience, I am borne on the currents of Life, and move into realms not available through trying. It is easy, fun and joyful, and full of wonderful ’surprises’ as the synchronicity of Life perfectly orchestrates what should come together and what should move apart. As long as I remain open and malleable in the process, my movement is buoyant and creative. Whenever I revert to ‘figuring things out,’ the roller coaster ride begins. Beingness is experienced in the Now–it really is so simple that we overlook it. As I am fully present and accepting of the Now, not trying to change anything, the energy of my heartfelt presence does in fact change the circumstances around me, but according to the larger design of Life, not my little perspective.
Thank God for the wisdom of Life and the opportunity we have to share in this true wisdom as we fully surrender to the moment.
