HEAVEN LETTERS # 2726 Let Your Heart Be the Ocean, May 12, 2008

God said:

When you wake up in the morning, turn your heart to joy rather than

duty. Better yet, make duty your joy. Let your responsibility for

the world be your joy. It is not that you carry the world on your

shoulders. Carry it in your heart where I AM. You can believe that I

am not a burden. I am the Remover of Burden. I whisk it away. I turn

every perceived heaviness into joy. I turn on the light, beloveds,

and light is never heavy. I give you My joy. I give you My love. I

give them to you to use and use well. I do not loan them to you. I

give them to you.

Somehow you may have had the idea that you are duty-bound to lack

joy, if not to suffer, to drag your feet around as though you were

chained to a cement wall. Instead of dragging your feet, dance.

Dance in your heart, and you will be light-footed.

Love is available. It is available at every turn. Would you not

avail yourself of it? Would you not turn dross into gold? Would you

not turn every situation around and make it joyful? If not for you,

for someone?

Or, let's put it this way: No longer remove joy from your heart. No

longer twist joy into something else, anything else. Accept nothing

less than joy into your heart. You have been careless. You have let

woe in, as if it had a place in your heart. Your heart is meant to

be tender, and not toughened up. Let your heart stay in its

lovingness. No longer let anything intrude on the joy. Anything else

that may enter your heart is an intruder. It does not belong in your

heart. I belong in your heart. All that I AM belongs in your heart.

Let there be room for nothing else. Fill your heart to overflowing.

Carry a sign in your heart that says: "I am full. Only love and joy

may enter. I am the decider of my heart, and I accept gold. I accept

no less. I, your heart, let everyone into the warmth of me, but

anything less than love and joy have to stay outside. Of course,

there is no place in me for anything but love and joy in the warmth

of me."

And so reads the sign in your heart.

Another way to say it is that your heart is full of Me. Fill your

heart with God. Fill your heart with the love of God, and all that

enters your heart will be transformed. You will have eyes to see.

You will have a heart that knows. Your heart will not do the bidding

of every Tom, Dick, and Harry. Your heart will do My bidding, and My

bidding is that you feature love and joy. What else would you want

in your heart anyway?

Have an open-door policy in your heart. At the same time, shoes have

to be left outside. All baggage has to be left outside, not checked

but thrown away. All baggage thrown away, and then only joy and love

exist to enter.

Let your heart be a streaming river. Let your heart be the Ocean

that embraces all, washes all, and lifts all high in the timbre of

its love. >From the Ocean you came and to the Ocean you return. What

else should you be doing but creating love and joy?

On your way to whatever you are up to, follow love and joy. Let them

accompany you. Let them be your loyal companions. Let My love and

joy follow you and greet you in your swim to the shores of Heaven.
