Before The Wind - Preface
Upon writing, "Before the Wind", I was asked why I write the way I write. First, I did not choose to write, but to convey the messages, the words I receive. Each of you will see what I am saying in your own way, both in this explanation, as well as the words I share.
As I sat in my room for 2 1/2 years upon my wife's death, I felt a hand on my shoulder, and my name gently whispered in my ear. As this happened night after night for months upon months, I paid attention. In the beginning, I argued about being woken from my slumber, but that touch and the whisper would not stop. When I did awaken, I knew I was to write what had been given me. The messages had not being dictated to me, but the words were just there as if they were part of me. Somehow, I knew what to convey, and I knew when I was finished. Upon writing those words, I would sleep once more. Later that morning, I would read what I had written, and was in awe of the messages, the wisdom conveyed to me. This went on for more than a year. During that time, I lived through difficult tribulations, and the words ended. They did return though and they arrived at all different times, not just at 3 in the morning as I slept. There came a time when I thought, if I can write these wise words, then I can write what I wanted to write. That is when I learned I was not the author, but merely the conveyor, and at best, a poor editor. It was then that I knew that I was being given these messages, not necessarily to share, but for me to see beyond everything I had lived.
In essence, I share messages to me with those who will allow them into their lives. As I wrote, I began to understand, to know, and to live those principles. I was becoming me, my image of the creator without all the complications and illusions of life, and I, too, was becoming a sower of seeds, God's seeds.
To answer the question as to why I write the way I do, I do so because I convey what comes to me, precisely as it comes to me. Over time, I realized that I needed to correct my spelling and grammatical errors, so I clean up my inadequacies as I am able. However, I do not change the message or the way it comes to me. These messages, written the way they are, are gifts to me and anyone who wants to allow and ponder them. Remember, they are messages to me and anyone else willing to read them. They are conveyed to me the way I understand them, not necessarily how you know them. That being said, I share them as they are, and I will not change them, for they are God's words.
Some of you may not like the image man has made of God, and may turn away, simply because I use the label, the name, God. That is your choice. I too, when this writing began, did not like to use the word, God, as it has been confined, defined, minimized, and perverted through intent and misunderstandings. When I understood that it was not God that bothered me, but how man had painted, tainted and twisted God into the image of man, I was empowered in knowing that I had been given the gift and responsibility to convey precisely what I receive.
Some may think I am arrogant, stubborn, or willful. I assure you, I am, but only in sharing what I am given, as it is given. In that, I will not compromise, for the messages I share are not from me but God. I live these words I share, to the best of my ability, not because I am supposed to, but because I am them, and they are me. It is who, I am.
I hope they help you, but there are other souls like me, sharing God's words as they receive them. From them, or I, I hope you can see, allow, and live everything beyond who you are, and everything that is God.
You know, you too can write, paint, play or sing God's life and light when you receive, and allow them into your life. It is each of us, different facets of God, who, from our part of God, receive and share from our own experience of God. Together, we are the spirit of God, or, we are not. I hope you give what you have been given, for God's messages never stop, and are for all who listen and allow. ~ Mark
Before The Wind
Before the wind, before the light, before darkness, judgment, and sin, there was you. Before concepts, ideas, understanding, and knowingness, there was you. You were before all things earthly, before prophets, before messengers, before Christ, there was you.
Oh No, you say! Ah, but that is what you have led to believe. You see, in God, you were - you, the imagination, the child, the image of God, that you are. In God, you were; not the flesh you see, that you believe you are, but you, the idea, the thought of God.
We, now, are far away from the origin and essence of us, for we have drifted from, added to, and complicated that original beingness of us, God’s original thought. Now we believe we are separate, so we are. Now we believe God is up there, somewhere but us. When we believe this, we are this; we are below, we are separate. We separate, we divide, we are less than, and we live not our essence of the Creator, yet, we are. We are these things, not of God, because we believe these lies we tell ourselves now, that we are not the image, we are not God, so we are not. We are the contradiction; the beingness, the life of God, yet we do not live God.
It is okay to believe you are less and separate from God. It is all right, for you are coming back to that image. You know, the answer is simple. The answer is ONE thing. The answer is not everything else; all the complications we believe answers our questions. The answer, is merely and simply, Being.
Wow! Right! Just being??? I think not! No way! Nay! There must be an equation. There must be a path, a journey, something that gets me from here to there, to here. Yes, you are right. There are all these things, when we believe there are all these things.
Being the child, the image of God is complicated, for we must try to be that child, that image, that part. That is the lie, the “devil’s” lie, the myth that we now say to ourselves and others. I tell you true, let go, let go, let go the comforts, the illusions and the lies that keep you from God, for if you continue, you are less, you are separate from God.
You are not less than, nor separated from God, lest your your choice to be so. You have never been, but in what you were taught and that you accepted, and that you now shout to the world. You are everything; you are Godly. You are everything you allow yourself to be, or not be. There is a reason we have choice. We have choice to experience everything we accept or thwart, everything we allow or deny. This choice is for us to learn and unlearn, to become, or become not. Where we hold ourselves, to where we diminish ourselves, that is our choice.
To Be, or Not to Be. That is the question. That is the choice. ~ Mark
