Reply #18: Well put!

I've never really thought about it this way before, but I notice that I respond to channeled messages exactly the same way that I do more mundane communication, and it doesn't matter whether I am "receiving" or someone else is telling me what they received. I listen, I take the parts that resonate, or make sense, to me, and let the rest go.

Whether the parts that don't "feel right" are "wrong," or just not what I need, or what I'm ready for, I can't say. I know that there are things that resonate strongly with others that leave me cold. I've just always figured I didn't need it at that time.

Of course, anything and everything has "spin," and a particular perspective. Whether it is the channelees or the channelors doing the spinning, or both, there is bound to be some spin to the messages. Then we add our own interpretation, spinning it further! I think the thing to do is to look underneath the spin for the universal. Kind of what I do for various faiths, as well.

I enjoy reading the Matthew messages, and I take them the way I take all communication: think about it, take what makes sense to me, leave the rest. Or, set the rest aside to ponder again when I might benefit from it.
