Christmas Eve: You Are the Light That Comes to Transform the Earth
During his transcript review, Yeshua did some light editing and added a few words.
Yeshua (B): My beloved sisters and brothers, I am Yeshua ben Joseph. I thank you, David, for your introduction. And I’m laughing here, because I may be Yeshua but I still could not quite figure out how to unmute myself! Different times, different tools. David says I can move mountains— well, I have my work cut out for me, learning to use zoom controls!
It is such a blessing to be here with you tonight, to feel your energy, love and light.
We are here together at this time, literally to change the world.
I came 2,000 years ago at a time of darkness on the earth, the earth devolving into a darker, heavier energy wherein much light was blocked out.
I came to renew that light from our Divine Father/Mother, to draw it down into the earth and re-plant it into the earth, just a Light seed. Now, through 2,000 years the seed has been growing.
The seed needs gardeners. It cannot grow without the nurturers who will clear the soil of weeds, who will water the soil, who will cultivate the soil and create space for sun to warm the earth so that this blessed seed of love can grow.
Tonight, you celebrate what you think of as my birthday. But it is not my birthday, it is the birthday of love. It celebrates the time 2,000 years ago, when this seed was reawakened. I specify ‘reawakened’ because the seed was there at the beginning, at the heart of everything, but through so many thousands of years of the predominance of the small self over the true Essence; separated self as ruler, bringing malice, hatred, greed and fear, the seed had become less visible. It asked renewed tending within the soil of your earth so that it could re-arise, filling the world with light. Thus, I came, and those with me to help you remember the gardening.
“Well, what went wrong?” you might ask. “We still have hatred, and we have a pandemic. We have environmental disaster. Yeshua, what went wrong?”
Beloved ones, nothing has gone wrong. Be patient and have heart. Trust this journey in which all of you mutually have embarked, a journey from fear and darkness into love and light. A journey that you are co-creating, each in your own hearts.
People have sometimes misunderstood my work, said that I came to save the world from sin, with confusion about that word. I take the letters S-I-N to mean sinking into negativity. Through so many lifetimes many beings have been sinking into negativity. And what will save us from that? It is not me that will save us; it is all of us together holding the potential of Love on an Earth that is awakened, the Eden we have been promised. You are important—vital, really—to recreate that brilliance, that love.
For now, think of us all having gathered 2,000 years ago, because you were there, certainly you were there. We have been walking all day. We’re sitting around a fire. Actually, this instrument through who I am speaking, this human was a boy named Mark, a young boy. He would walk with his father Nathaniel; they often walked with me. When the day grew dark and the fire was built and Mark was tired, he would climb on my lap. I loved to hold him there on my lap and he loved to be there. Many of you sat around these fires and we shared stories.
So, think of Barbara here sitting on my lap as I talk to you. Others of you also sat on my lap at times or sat beside me in our circle. We all held that space of love together. We are all gathered by the warmth of the fire, with restorative food.
Now you despair and say, “Save us! Something, save us!” But you have everything you need within you. No one needs to be saved. The important thing is to remember who you are. It is not my birth that we celebrate; it is the birth of love, now taking deep root into the earth despite what seems to be darkness; unconditional love taking root in your hearts. It is the awakening of your deepest truth.
You know those lines about the darkest time of the night before dawn. Dawn is coming. You each carry that dawn in your own hearts, especially when you compassionately observe the ways that you do sink into negativity. The watcher is not caught in that negativity. Of course, you fall into negativity at times; you are human. Every human does this at times.
But it is not an inevitable process. Watching yourself sink into despair, into negativity, into sadness and helpless feelings, stop and remember the message: You are love. You are Light. You are the Beloved. You are the one through whom our Creator pours His/Her light and energy to shine out on this world. And you have the capacity when there is negativity, not to get caught up in it.
My dear friend Aaron, who was once Nathaniel, would tell you, just note it. Contraction, negativity—don’t worry about it. If the conditions are present, it will arise, Aaron would tell you. Well, so it does.
Negative contraction is not your essence. This is the heart of what I came to teach, to awaken you to knowing your essence as love.
Love one another. Just hear that simple message. Love one another.
Love the Lord. Love all beings of every sort. Love the light and even love the darkness. Do not hate anything. This is within your power.
Tonight I am going to ask you to give me a Christmas gift. I bring you my love and remind you of the power we all hold to transform the world with love. Bring me your gift of knowing that love and radiance in your hearts, of your commitment to live the light that you are so that all beings, those who are in the darkest places in the world, may feel the power of that love and light and be transformed by it.
This is our work. I have not come to save you; I have come to join hands and walk with you; to remind you of your own power, because you also are divine. I have no exclusive claim to that divinity. YOU are divine. YOU are light. YOU are the expression of God on the earth.
Are you ready to do that? I believe that you are.
You have been in a place of pain these past two years with the pandemic, and so much seems to be going wrong with your world.
Turn back to it and ask: right here in this time of darkness, where is the light?
I am the light. You are the light. We claim and restore the light.
Those words that you sang, “Joy to the world, the Lord is come! Let Earth receive her King!” This is the King of Love, and you are born into that love. I know you can be it, can embrace it.
I am always here with you to help and support you; you are never alone. And each of you has your own guidance to help support.
Together we can bring this earth more out of the darkness and into the light, into that which was intended for this earth—a place of true brotherhood/sisterhood of love where no being hates another.
Will you do this with me? I ask this of you as a Christmas gift. Please work with me on this and together we shall do it.
My blessings to you. I am Yeshua ben Joseph and I am always with you. My energy and my love with you. You never walk alone.
In the darkest hours, look around and say, “Yeshua, where are you?” And I am here, I promise. I will never break that promise or your trust because you are my beloved sisters and brothers. Together we undertook this work. And yes, we are doing it. Despite how the darkness seems to envelop us, we are bringing light, and that is all that’s needed.
Love one another.
I wish I had more time to talk with you, but I’ve been told 15 minutes, but it’s 14 minutes and 37 seconds. So, I greet you with much love and Christmas blessings.
Thank you…. I pass this back to my friend, David. Thank you.
