MARY MAGDALENE: Dealing With Feeling Special

Part 2 of a Message

Question: I have a question concerning “specialness.” I am a light worker and am here to serve. I know that none of us are special—we are all the same, one love—but I court that feeling sometimes. Based on how it feels when it comes up, it doesn’t feel like it serves me. How do I deal with this?

Mary Magdalene: The question that you ask is a very good one and I feel your integrity in this, your wanting to stay true to your spiritual purpose and to your spiritual path, to not get distracted from that. I honor you for this and I feel your heart so much in your question. I want to really acknowledge that.

I also want to say that I suspect there may be a slight confusion you’re holding relative to this, which I’m hoping I may be able to help you with.

When you say that we are all one, that is absolutely true. That is a true statement about all of us. But it is not the whole picture.

The whole picture, from my point of view, is that you are both one, or non-separate, and you are also individuated. This is especially the case at the third dimension, where you experience yourself as an individuated being, who is not the same as everyone else, who is unique, and individual or different. This is part of the reality, you might say, that you experience in the third dimension. As part of this, everyone at the third dimension has their unique strengths and challenges.

What you are calling special may simply be a strength you have. It might be different from others, because others may not have that particular strength. Or if they have it, they may have it in a different way. Or they may be using it in a different form or arena. Others also will not have the same challenges that you have. And they will have their own strengths, strengths that you don’t have. They will have ways they’re making use of those strengths, and arenas in which they’re bringing those strengths, that you’re not doing.

So there may be very much realness to your sense of specialness. Perhaps special is a triggering word for you. Perhaps it would be better to just call it uniqueness. Then imagine that it’s not only uniqueness, but uniqueness combined with a sense of being on your path, really living your life purpose, and in that, being aligned with your higher self. That is most wonderful. I wouldn’t want you to diminish that in any way. That is a divine gift you are receiving. I encourage you to fully allow yourself to receive that, if I’m understanding you correctly, because that is an aspect of union with God. That is what everyone is here for. So I encourage you to absolutely receive that in its fullness, as a wonderful blessing, a state of grace and blessedness.

I think perhaps what you might be concerned about is feeling that this might make you somehow superior or “better than.” That is a challenge, and can even be a trap, at the third dimension—to take your gifts and blessings to mean that therefore “I’m better than others,” or superior somehow, or even just the sense that it separates you from others. If you are truly experiencing your gifts as grace, as living your life purpose in union with God, this will open your heart. You will have the experience of greater union with others. That is one of the ways you can tell that this is actually you being on purpose.

I’m guessing that you are experiencing yourself being on purpose. I’m guessing that this is just a thought you’re having that is standing in your way. What I would suggest is to fully embrace your specialness or uniqueness. Thank God, thank the divine that you are having this wonderful experience of union with the oneness and wholeness of God. If it is taking you into any sense of feeling superior, or special in a separate way. or a way of comparing yourself to others and feeling somehow better, then that is something you can work with in various ways. One way is just to understand that this is a blessing you’re receiving and it’s not at all depriving any others in this moment. The more you receive God in God’s wholeness, the more you can share that with others.

It is absolutely true at the third dimension that you have strengths. It is a God-given blessing to use your strengths. Don’t be concerned about that somehow not being aligned to spiritual work. It is totally aligned. But let it take you all the way through to union with God. Know that this gift that you’re using in this moment is really enabling you to come into union with God and to bring God’s wholeness forward. That is the real blessing.

I hope this has been helpful to you. I thank you again for all the work you are doing and your wonderful intention and dedication to your spiritual path. Many blessings to you.

MARY MAGDALENE: Responding to Challenge

October 24, 2013 | Author Mercedes Kirkel

Part 1 of a Message

On October 3, 2013

Blessings beloved ones,

This is Mary Magdalene, here with you again. I am so happy to have this opportunity to communicate with people and to answer people’s questions. As you know, it is my great, great passion to help people in their spiritual growth. The truth is that your spiritual growth is reflected in all the parts of your life. So if there is any part of your life in which you are having a challenge or wanting help with, that is actually part of your spiritual path and your spiritual growth. Those are all arenas in which I love to offer help, to bring my blessing and my point of view forth to support all of you.

As I have said before, you are at a wonderful moment right now. You’re on the precipice of great change, great growth. I think many of you are already seeing the signs in your world that this is so. Some of those signs feel wonderful and beautiful. Your life may seem more blessed, more easy. Things may be flowing in a more beautiful way, where it feels like you’re more connected to Spirit, more in the flow of life, and doing the work you came to do.

Some of the symptoms of the change may not seem so easy. It may seem that things are happening that are more challenging. Things may be coming up in parts of your life that you thought you already dealt with. Or things may be coming up that you never experienced before—difficulties, problems, challenges. This is part of the preparation for the change that is happening. You’re being given the opportunity to purify any blocks that remain. Some of them may not even be from this lifetime. Some of them may be from previous lifetimes. Some of them may be from earlier times in this life. Some of them may be things that you’ve been dealing with, which seem to be intensified or even getting more difficult.

You might relate this to what sometimes happens when you’re physically unwell—when you have some kind of illness or even a disease. The healing path can take a course where things seem to get worse before they get better. Oftentimes, what’s actually happening is that things that have been buried at a deep level are coming to the surface to be released. But in coming to the surface, you experience them more directly, more strongly, more powerfully. So you may have the sense, “What’s going on? My life seems to be harder, more difficult, getting worse.” I hope it is helpful to hear my perspective—that this can be part of the process of change, growth, and opening to the new, which really will be more wonderful and more easeful.

As much as you can, have trust and faith. Know that your life is being guided. Do the things that you know how to do to support yourself in the midst of such challenges. You may need to do certain things more than you’re used to. You may need to have more sleep. You may need to nurture yourself more. You may need to be more careful about the diet you’re eating. You may be more sensitive to things that didn’t affect you in the past, but now they are. Perhaps you’re more sensitive to people’s energies. Perhaps you need to be more conscious of the people you’re spending time with and the energy that you’re bringing into your world and reality. There are many levels to this. Hopefully most of you are aware of what things help you and what things are not supportive. Take steps to support yourself if you are experiencing more challenge. I hope this is helpful to all of you.

I want to say that, from my perspective, things are moving forward. You are progressing in this transition. I am very happy about that. Many of the beings at the higher levels want this progress and change for you, support you in this, and celebrate the transition that is happening.

Just as you may be having the experience of things in your personal life seeming to be more difficult or getting worse, this also may happen at the larger scale of your society, or your culture, or even worldwide. There may be difficulties in the political realm, or socially, or you may have experiences of challenging natural phenomena, or manmade phenomena such as technology that’s not working. There are many different ways this might appear. But it might be larger than just your individual life or people’s individual circumstances. It might be group situations that seem to be getting more challenging. This is also part of the process.

What you can do in these circumstances, first and foremost, is to support yourself in maintaining your center. Stay in the light yourself and do whatever you need to do to support the light within yourself. Then, radiate light and love to the larger circumstance. Bring your prayers, light, and blessing to these circumstances. These are the most important things. Out of that, yes, there may be practical steps and actions that you are to take, as well. But these are always secondary. The primary is through blessing, prayer, light, and love. I support you in remembering this and bringing this to your world, as best you can.
