Soul Integrity

Soul Integrity
B Y  L A U R E N   Z I M M E R M A N

I choose not to respond or react to the world/reality anyone else is creating.
I choose to create my own reality based upon what is best for my Soul.
As I make this choice, the Universe provides me with the people, things, and experiences that support that choice.

The above statements support Soul Integrity. As we begin to understand, as a species, what it truly means to express Soul through this 3-D experience, it is imperative to understand many things. One of the understandings is the responsibility we are seemingly bringing into our lives. But the underlying truth of the matter is that we have had this responsibility all along. The only difference is that, as Souls making and living the above statements, we consciously create, as opposed to living in reaction to the people and events around us and being victimized by our own emotions and reactions.

We owe a greater responsibility to our Soul than we do to the
3-D world around us.

Every person living on Earth consentually creates the 3-D world/reality in which we live. By shifting the awareness of our responsibility to maintaining the integrity of Soul, we begin to "re-create" the energy and presence of Self on Earth. If we continue to give our total support and personal power to the "illusion" and "way of being" on Earth, we diminish the impact and interaction of Soul on Earth. Ego, personality, wants, desires, and false beliefs have, for centuries, been the foundation of the creation of life on Earth. These things, though essential pieces of the Soul-experience, must relinquish their power over our thoughts and manifestations. These things are responsible for the chaos Humankind has been creating for centuries. These things, when "tamed" and geared toward the task of expressing Soul on Earth, will be responsible for incredible and unique solutions and healings never before seen on Earth.

Soul does not operate from a place of fear or doubt.
To operate with integrity, Soul maintains the Truth of
who and what it is, and why it has chosen an Earth-incarnation.

When we understand how to react with the Soul, rather than with any 3-D reactions, beliefs, or emotions, we will have learned what we desire to learn, as eternal Souls. When we react from a 3-D perspective to anything at all, we are not choosing to be Soul but choosing to be human. As long as we continue to react from the human perspective, we will not be living the totality of our Truth. The Truth incorporates our humanness but does not depend upon our humanness. Our humanness places limitations upon us that our Soul does not. To live an unlimited life, one must live unlimited Soul.

There is a piece of awareness that is common. "The greater the Master, the greater the challenge." Here's the clue … the challenges are the greatest for the Master because the Master wishes it that way. Why? Because the Master's desire is to learn to overcome the challenge. Exactly what is the challenge? It is to react/respond with the entire presence of Soul, rather than ego, personality, emotion, or anything else that is a part of the 3-D illusion.

There is no such thing as loss of hope or faith.

The base/foundation for most of the chaos and inhumanity to man that exists on the Earth-plane is loss of hope. However, no such thing exists within Soul's reality and Truth. In addition, there is no such thing as lack or loss of faith. "Losing" hope and faith causes the most grievous crimes against self and others for it brings up the basest of fears and causes the greatest separation between self and Soul.

Soul's Truth is this. There can be no loss of faith for Soul is faith. The foundation of all Souls understands that everything in existence is available and that there is no separation between what is needed and that need being met. If there is a need and that need is seemingly not met, it is due to the fact that Soul is attempting to learn something by depriving itself. It is a Universal Law that needs must be met. Only Soul can disallow the meeting of that need. When we are in union and harmony with Soul, we understand that we are depriving ourselves of something we feel we need. Because it is only ourselves that is creating our own reality, it is only ourselves that we can cease to believe in, which would be a denial of self and a denial of the power and Truth of who we are.

To "lose" hope is a fiction. There is always a tomorrow and there is a solution to all things. Soul understands that every minute of "suffering" on the human plane of existence is based solely upon the Soul's desire to learn something and the human lack of understanding. When in union with Soul, the human aspects of self allow understanding, thus allowing freer and quicker movement from one lesson to the next.

One of the greatest understandings necessary when seeking Soul-union is to become the Knowing that Soul is all things, including hope, faith, glory, grace, wisdom, and all other things necessary to be the complete expression of Mastery. To "lose" hope and/or faith is to deny that you are what you are, that tomorrow exists, that eternity, God, Soul, and that existence can or will let you down.

The "exterior" expression of self on Earth suffers through a plethora of misery in its attempt to serve as a tool of learning and understanding. When we suffer, our emotions and beliefs "bog down" and become mired in the energy of suffering. When this occurs, we believe that we have lost hope and faith. But it is when our suffering is the greatest that our lessons are the most extreme and the need to merge with Soul the most available to us. When the division, the dichotomy, between the human expression of life and the Truth of Soul is the greatest, the opportunity to "negate" and rise above the illusion of suffering is also the greatest. It is a time when the two "opposite" ends of the "scale" of Soul can be brought together in the middle, thus excluding the "reality" that opposites exist.

"I will address ALL of your needs and NONE of your wants, for your wants
have a foundation of humanness that may or may not be in total
alignment with Soul. Therefore, your needs fulfilled will give you
your wants fulfilled when you surrender to living Soul."
~~ The Presence of God ~~
