What if the world didn't end tomorrow?

What if, instead, our need to create disastrous situations to propel ourselves into learning shifted?

What if the paradigm of suffering was no longer needed because we decided to step into our full power as spiritually sovereign beings born with the inherent, God-given ability to perform "miracles" whenever we wanted to?

What if the members of the spiritual electoral college, currently incarnated among every race, sex, religious culture, nation, and people around the world decided, together, to VOTE for peace.

To VOTE for harmony and healing, NOW.

To raise their minds, their emotions, and their voices to the heavens, addressing the higher dimensional helpers who are always available to us, gently and patiently waiting for us to WAKE UP and to STEP INTO THIS POWER ACTIVELY.

You are a member of the spiritual electoral college. You're familiar with the political process in the U.S. Members of the electoral college cast the ultimate votes which decide who will hold the office of the President. The popular vote, or the numbers of votes collected from the mass populace, does not determine the outcome of elections. The electoral college has all the power.

In a similar way, so does the spiritual electoral college on this planet hold all the power. They decide, en masse, through the collective consciousness of their belief structures, their attitudes, their emotions, their thoughtforms, and their projections of reality, what will happen here in the long-run.

The electoral college is obliquely mentioned in the Bible using the terms "the elect." But they are not some chosen few, some lucky souls who have been "saved" who will be whisked away during the time of Tribulation.

Their place is here on Earth. They are the ones who carry the vote down here, and the angelic hierarchy and other advanced spiritual guides of this world ultimately listen to them. They determine the future here.

NOBODY WANTS YOU TO KNOW THIS. You have been carefully controlled and manipulated, even by those who truly love you and want to provide you with information they feel is vital about the likely outcome of current events here on this world. They mean well. They want to give you facts, figures, points of view, and alternative perspectives that will empower you and stir you in a deep, spiritual sense.

But they're missing a vital piece.

You are members of the spiritual electoral college. You wield an important vote. But if you don't vote, if you don't cast a ballot, if you don't consciously work on stating your INTENT to the vast universe and higher dimensions that sustain this one, your power is wasted.

Where will you spend your vote? Did you even know you had one?

You do. And time is never "up" for creators of worlds, for shapers of reality. All of the great teachers, from Jesus and the old ones to the guides of our present day, have told us that we would perform miracles. That we could save and preserve humanity and heal and balance this dear Earth in a way that would allow us to continue forward with our evolution in these physical bodies instead of destroying everything that has been progressing for aons here.

The greatest of prophets will admit to you that they can only ever get it right 85% of the time. The laws of God and Creation always reserve the other 15% for those who would use their free will to shift and shape events in an alternative direction.

But nobody wants to utilize this incredible, almighty gift. They are too busy giving energy to the culture of victimhood, the climate of fear, or the catastrophe frequency, as one News Agent recently posted at the Agents Forum.

The opposite of the catastrophe frequency is the cohesion frequency, the balance and harmony and unification frequency, where events and beings are blended together in a calm, quiet, and loving way.

There are many who want you to join them on the ride into catastrophe.

I'm not going there. Neither are the healers I know.

Let's head for a different zone, through the God-given power of our free will, our immense capacity to MAKE A DIFFERENT CHOICE.

Not just in our personal lives, which are pressing but ultimately insignificant.

Make a different choice as a member of the spiritual electoral college on behalf of humanity, which is still in its infancy. The higher angelics know this. Think they haven't been in on the plan?

Make a different choice on behalf of the animal kingdom, the crystal kingdom, the plant kingdom, the devic kingdoms and all inner planes dwellers, who would all suffer horribly if we DON'T exercise our free will and craft a different tomorrow. They don't have the power we have, although their gifts are great.

Make a different choice on behalf of the Earth herself, an incredible being with consciousness, emotion, and spirit. She hasn't given up on us. Why would you? When you can suffer as she has and STILL NOT destroy humanity, in spite of the ease with which you could belch and toss this annoying species off your surface in an instant - that's true forgiveness. That's true empathy. That's true forbearance. Don't we owe it to her to step up to the plate and become heros for her? Shouldn't we summon up those dormant spiritual and energetic reserves that most of us have been denying for lifetime upon lifetime, bound up in the addiction of victim consciousness, and MAKE A DIFFERENT CHOICE? Don't we owe it to her as the incredibly dear friend she has been to us for aeons? Isn't it time to start our own power prayer program?

However you feel comfortable doing it, from invoking your God to meditating on images of love, peace and balance, to directly talking with higher beings from the angelic planes, now is the time to vote.

As a member of the spiritual electoral college, you know how to do this. This capacity is as natural to you as breathing. You need only remove the OBSTRUCTIONS to breathing that have strained your spiritual lungs for years and had you inhaling the wrong type of oxygen.

Open your heart, project the outcome that you desire for this planet and her people to the heavens through visualization, verbalization, or silent invocation. There are many ways with which to cast your vote. Take a moment to listen to that still, quiet place within you, and you'll know just what to do.

And keep voting until you manifest the results that you seek.

Know that you're not alone in this and that millions of others join you in this work and celebrate the expression of your vital personal power, adding their own intentions to yours in a chorus of vibrant soul sparks.

Now - where's that ballot box?
