Navigating the difficult times ahead

"Only Knowledge knows who you are, why you are here and how you will be able to navigate the difficult times ahead." [1]

"Only Knowledge within you, the deeper intelligence that God has placed within you, will know how to deal with these circumstances and with the immense change that is coming for humanity. Only this deeper Knowledge, this sacred Knowledge, will know how to navigate the difficult times ahead, will know how to sail the troubled waters, for troubled waters there will be."[2]

"No matter how complex your life may become, or how uncertain the environment around you may become, Knowledge can navigate these things. It is the pilot of your life. It is your inner compass." [3]

Directions for Navigation

"Those who will be able to navigate the highly uncertain times ahead must have this strength and inner guidance. If they are to benefit from these circumstances, if they are to be uplifted and strengthened by these challenges, that must be their focus."[4]

"Even a relationship that is meant to serve the discovery of higher purpose in life will have personal dimensions that will require awareness and discernment, honest self-expression and a certain kind of navigation that is always necessary in human relationships."[5]

"Your confidence must be established at a deeper level. The sense of authority in your life must be established beyond your personality and your ideas, for so many of your ideas will be challenged and will prove to be inadequate to face the future and to navigate the difficult times ahead."[4]

Navigating by reading the signs

"You will have to read the signs very carefully and very objectively, both from what the world is telling you and from what Knowledge within you is indicating, in order to begin to navigate a changing set of circumstances, a changing set of situations—navigating the troubled waters ahead." [6]

The Great Waves of Change

"Take the lessons from history, but look ahead. Clear your mind. Set aside your assumptions. Set aside your beliefs and your preferences so that you may see, so that you may know, so that you may respond to the signs of the world and to the signs of Knowledge within you. At first, these signs will seem subtle and perhaps indistinct, but over time they will become extremely clear and powerful. You will marvel at how you ever could have ignored them or overlooked them before. This will give you strength and confidence that Knowledge will speak to you in the future, and if you are in a position to follow it with strength and commitment, without assumptions, you will be able to navigate what to others will seem incomprehensible and overwhelming."[6]

"Learn from your own errors, and recognize and use the wisdom that they have provided to you. Knowing your past mistakes and learning from them will help you in facing and navigating the Great Waves of change. If you don’t forgive yourself, you lose selftrust, which you will need to rely upon increasingly in the future. You build self-trust most powerfully by following Knowledge within you."-[7]

A metaphor for navigating

One thing I’ve come to know about myself is that I am a “context person.” Recognizing the larger context surrounding my life has made the details of life make sense and also helped make the more difficult details bearable and workable. One metaphor that has always made sense to me is that of the ancient mariner relying on tri-angular astro navigation to guide their vessels and to determine the real-time position of their ship. This navigation aid has 3 reference points:

This navigation aid has 3 reference points:
1. The seeming position of the ship now.
2. Where the ship needs to go, or arrive to.
3. And a reference point in the sky in its’ relationship to 1 and 2.

My sense of a greater or overarching “Context” relates to #3 of this 3 point approach to life navigation. The “Greater Context” is the sense of a higher reference point that has helped me overtime see where I am and where I need to go. This tool helped me find Marshall and the New Message and the Allies of Humanity. Now the question is, where do the Revelation and the Allies’ message to humanity regarding Intervention go from here?[8]
