Philanthropy

Saturday, 28 February, 2009
corporate philanthropy
Teacher Ophelius:
Good morning dear one, we are here with you. It is I, Ophelius and the Circle, to join with you on this cold and sunny morning. Today we would like to speak to you about philanthropy. What is philanthropy and how does it affect the evolution of a planet that is leading toward Light and Life? Philanthropy is simply corporate charity—the taking up of some social cause by a corporate entity to promote goodwill in the community in which it is a part thereof. As your world approaches closer and closer to Light and Life, philanthropy will become a very routine and natural thing for all companies, large and small, to do their part in providing much needed services, similar to what the churches are doing currently with their relief programs, except that they will fill needs in many diverse areas not addressed by church or government. Many corporations now are doing this, but there is not enough to fill the needs of mankind.

Who AM I?

Sunday, 12 July, 2015
Who AM I?
Teacher Ophelius:
Who AM I? Have you ever thought deeply about this question? Have you ever sat quietly or in meditation and asked with the deepest of sincerity and wonder about who you really are—the “real you?” This one simple question carries a powerful vibration and it can not only help you to discover the greater part of who you are, but it can surely help you to see who you are not. This one question is more than mere words or symbols—it is primal to your existence and purpose in the universe and until you put aside all material matters and acknowledge all of who you are not, you will continue to live in separation from the True Self.

Experience a Sense of Unity

Sunday, 5 July, 2015
Teacher Ophelius:
Today we would like for you to experience a sense of shared unity with the Creator Father. How can such imperfect beings, such as humans, have a unifying experience with a perfect Creator? You can experience unity in many forms and because you are human and imperfect, you will share in that part of unity that you understand. What exactly is unity? It is a culmination or the bringing together the total attitude, desire, aspiration, and hoped for final destiny of the child to be like the Creator; to actually feel a part of the whole of creation and to acknowledge your co-creatorship as a participant in bringing all things to completion in relative perfection.

Let’s Talk About the Weather

Tuesday, 30 June, 2015
Teacher Ophelius:
Today, my dear friends, we would like to talk about the weather—Spiritual weather. Often times when strangers meet on your world, not knowing any common point of interest of the other, they sometimes refer to the topic of the weather because each one realizes that no matter who they are or where they have come from, a common point of mutual experience can always be had by talking about the weather. It is a friendly “ice breaker” which can lead to other topics of conversation. When we talk about “Spiritual weather” however, we are talking about expressing a common point of mutual experience about the journey of the soul. These conversation starters can lead to some wonderful exchanges which can actually create friendships and bond souls together because they are more meaningful, vulnerable, and honest. This signals to the other that they are safe to express some of the discoveries and experiences which have led them to a higher place of awareness about their place in the universe and the self-discovered meanings of life.

The Prayer of Understanding

Sunday, 21 June, 2015
Teacher Ophelius:
Dear Friends,
Today I would like to lead you all in a prayer. Some of you may not be comfortable doing so, or it is not something you are accustom to doing—or perhaps it brings up memories of childhood religious experiences that you were not particularly fond of. Others find great comfort and a fulfillment of peace and assurance by relinquishing the burdens of life to a “higher power.” Whatever the case may be, I am here to tell you that prayer is communication—it is considered a form of worship in the sense that the Creator’s children (you) acknowledge the parent/child relationship and therefore do you “have the ear” of the Creator. When the prayer connection is established through this form of communication, the faith muscle of the child is strengthened and the trust and bond of the child for the parent grows along with that faith.

Preparedness (Part 2)

Teacher Ophelius:
Today's message about preparedness (part 2).  We spoke previously about preparing of the soul for survivorship and the meaning of values that are truly important for those awakening souls who are to live through this Correcting Time. Because you live in a body of flesh and blood, you must not only prepare the soul, but you must prepare to sustain the body through these difficult times ahead.

Preparedness

Sunday, 18 April, 2010
eruption
Teacher Ophelius:
Today's message is about preparedness.  The Correcting Time is NOW my beloveds, and for many, it is very real where they are.  You see it on your televisions and read about it on your Internet, yet most of you are numb to it because you think, It won't happen to me or It wont happen here.  Many are suffering as the disruption of their daily lives becomes a reality.  They wake up to the cold hard fact that their lives will never be the same again and there is no going back.  This is happening in the physical and the spiritual realm for them.  Some are digging out of the rubble of an earthquake; others are choking on the ash of a terrible volcano watching their homes burn and crumble; while still others are wading through the flood waters of a storm looking for their loved ones.  Nothing will be the same for them, yet they are the survivors of the Correcting Time and for them they will start anew and they will be stronger for it.  They have become the pioneers of new thinking and living.

The Vibrational Benefits of Being in Nature

Sunday, 24 May, 2015
being in nature
Teacher Ophelius:
Today, my dear friends, we would like to talk about the vibrational benefits of the beauty and goodness of being in nature. Have you ever noticed when you are outside in nature in some beautiful secluded place how your mood is elevated and how your senses seem to be filled with a vitalizing energy? It’s not just your mood that is truly elevated, there is a vibrational “peak” that you reach when you are surrounded by natural beauty. This “peak” in energy becomes a healing mechanism that was designed into your physiology to balance and harmonize the subtle fields of your body’s energy systems.

Christ ordained apostoles
Greetings, this is Christ Michael,
To all you students on the path who desire to be my disciples, who desire to do the Will of my Father, and who desire to serve your brothers and sisters on this world, I invite you to work with me in this Correcting Time.  Just as I ordained and sent out the seventy evangelists, more than 2,000 years ago, to reveal the love of my Father and your Father, I now am in need of workers who are as dedicated, loyal, and willing to consecrate their will to the knowing of the Will of our Father.
