You are blessed beings indeed. Yes, I am that one that you know as Jesus, and we do want to come through today and speak to you as a group. We want you to know that you are truly blessed, that you are amazing beings made of love and light. There is nothing wrong with you. Everything is as it should be and all is well. You have heard us talk about the changes that are coming to your planet. We do not want you to be concerned or worried or fearful about these things. We would like you to see them as being exciting changes which will propel  the human race and this planet forward. It is all part of the ascension process. There are many catalysts right now to help you to let go of the things that hold you back from pursuing your dreams, and from raising your frequencies and soaring above the battlefield. All of the things you are experiencing and will experience are designed to help prepare you for ascension. You knew that you would be having these experiences, and you gave them to yourself because you know that you can rise above them, that they will not harm you, and that suffering is not required. As we have shared with you through many beings, *A Course in Miracles* is indeed a foundational part of all that we teach humanity at this time. It was brought into being when it was so that it would be disseminated around the globe and [would be] ready for this time. Many millions are reading and studying this book. It contains the fastest path possible out of the mind training that you have been through your entire lives in this incarnation. It is the fastest way to undo all the misbeliefs you have been taught about what is real and what is illusion. So if you feel so moved to do so, we encourage you all to do the lessons of a course in miracles if you have not done so already. Or, if you have gotten bogged down, or stuck, do not feel guilty. Do not judge yourself. Just pick them up again and ask for help to continue on that journey. Help will be given. All of you have guides and teachers who are always with you and love you very much. I am always with you, and I love you all very much.  Please look upon this time with great excitement and joy. It is within you to perceive life in this way, because you **are** those things. The dirt that is surrounding the perfect diamond that is you is only illusory, and it only takes a shift in the mind to see the beautiful bright gem that you are. You are the light of the world. Choose to shine brightly, if you so desire, and you will! You can call to us for help at any time, and we will always answer. You will be guided by your feelings. But do not let the static of a busy mind block you from hearing that guidance. Be still and listen and hear, and you will be guided. We are very glad that you are meeting together like this, and we and many other non-physical beings are with you right now. Take a moment to unite your hearts and minds with the other beings that you can see—and the ones you can't see—in this room. You are all made of love. Let love flow freely. We love you. -Jesus
