Dear One,
Sometimes you minimize the importance of your reactions to the people in your life. Begin to monitor the results of your interaction with other people and then truth will come flooding into your life. There will be varying degrees of results to your appreciation of every individual you meet and how his life shapes your life and your character.
Every person you meet and with whom you exchange conversation will shape your character, your inner life, your prosperity and your happiness, either positively or negatively.
If you look upon every person as My child and as deserving of My love as you are, then you will look on his spirit instead of his flesh and you will be affected positively, no matter what his actions or reactions to you have been.
If you look upon his flesh, then you will judge him according to the actions of his flesh and you will be affected negatively.
A person's negative actions have nothing to do with you personally. The secret to a glorious life is your ability to look upon the spirit of a man rather than his flesh and its negative actions.
The key to forgiveness is to live your life always looking past the outer man and seeing into the spirit of every person so that you see the true person, the real person, the eternal person.
One reason to refrain from judging according to the flesh of another person is because the flesh, the outer actions of people, are always changing, just like yours are. All men are in constant transition and change. Their characters and personalities are always changing according to their experience and the people with whom they come into contact. So if you judge them according to their present actions of the flesh, then they may soon change that negative action into a positive one. Sometimes you have continued to judge them one way when they may have completely changed.
The spirit of a man is the only permanently beautiful part of him and it is unchanging. It is life giving. Seeing that part of every man, just as I do, is seeing the part that is of Me, the eternal part, the Godly part.
Look upon every man the way I look upon you, seeing the perfect spirit.
Love, God
