There is no time. Time is not real… it is simply part of the illusion. There is only an eternal right here, right now. Ever changing, yet always the same.
We planted the seed of separation knowing that eating its fruit would begin the timeline.
Out of the seed a magnificent tree grew and matured. It bore fruit and you finally decided to eat it. By the way, it was never “if you eat of the fruit…” it was “when you eat…”
In the instant you ate the fruit, I felt the separation as well. I was with, around and in you the entire time but you were cut off from Me. Eager for you to find Me, for there is nothing outside of Us, I called out “Where are you?”
You hid.
The hiding was an external expression of what had happened inwardly. Your mind had already compartmentalized the world around you. Some parts horrified you. You judged yourself quickly and thoroughly; you were no longer an authentic version of yourself. You couldn’t be. You could no longer genuinely express yourself nor could you allow yourself to just be… as you always were.
And so, you hid.
You desperately wanted to be what you now thought was good, and that thought created its opposite- the bad. Because in form there can not be one without the other.
The bad you denied.
Then, you hid even from you.
As you continued to cast judgment, you lied to yourself and quickly shifted the blame to something (the serpent) or someone (your counterpart) that you now considered outside of yourself.
Before separation there was no judgment, only unconditional Love, which allows everything to be as it is. This new experience was unbearable.
You hid, but My persistent calling out to you caused you to finally answer.
You said…
When I heard the sound of your voice I hid because I was naked.
God Spark, you were as you always were. Nothing had really changed… except you. My Love remains the same. Before the timeline began, you were transparent- physically, spiritually & mentally. Now you could no longer handle the transparency. You could no longer handle the all encompassing Truth.
So I asked you, and not to accuse but to get you to look inward.
“Who told you?”
I wasn’t looking for an answer. It was my first invitation for you to remember why you ate the fruit. Who told you that you were naked? You did.
So God Spark, I ask you again now. Who told you that you are naked? Who told you that you are not good enough? Who told you that you are lacking? Who told you that you are lost? Who told you that you are powerless, mortal, and incomplete? Who told you that you are not worthy?
You told yourself. You continually tell yourself. You let your mind run wild with its never ending judgments. You judge yourself.
I never judge you.
There is no judgment outside of yourself. Judge not, lest you be judged is not a harsh command. It is a loving reminder. It means that when you judge, you judge only yourself. “For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.”
There is no judgment outside of yourself.
