The Greatest Gift

The Greatest Gift is from our Heavenly Father and it is His Divine Love. It is ours when our souls long for it and with its receipt we are blessed with a personal relationship with Him and we are given all of His attributes of love, happiness, joy, forgiveness, peace and freedom from sin. When our souls receive God's Divine Love, His very essence, we are transformed from merely an image to the substance and are assured of immortality and divinity in the Celestial Heavens. And we may do this now, with prayer to Him, if it is our desire to do so. This inspirational video was created from phrases contained in The Padgett Messages that were written by Jesus and many Celestial Spirits, who brought God's Truths to us so we will know how we may truly become children of our Heavenly Father.

God's Message to His Children

Pray for my Divine Love with all the earnestness and sincere longings of your souls and you will experience love, joy and happiness, peace, understanding, tolerance, knowledge, wisdom and immortality.

It's my gift to you because I love you.

A Spirit Sends a Loving Message to Her Soulmate

Dear Frank,

I am here and through the kindness of Mrs. Padgett, I have the opportunity to write you and tell you that you are the dearest person to me in all the world. You do not yet fully appreciate my love for you, but as you come more in rapport with me, you will feel my presence and love to a greater and larger extent.

I am not only your soulmate, but your guardian angel and, when you least think of me, I am with you trying to direct your thoughts and actions towards those things which will make you happier and more at peace with your troubles in life.

So do not forget that wherever you may be and whatever your thoughts may dwell upon, I am with you and know what you are thinking of and, I want you to think and believe that in all the earth or spirit land, there is no one who loves you with such a pure and fervent love as I do, my own darling Frank.

Oh, how I wish that I could communicate to you in this way every night and tell you of what happiness I have in being with you, and feeling at times that you do really love me in your own somewhat divided heart. But thank God the time will come when I will have your whole love for myself, and no one else will share it with me to the smallest extent.

My dear, only believe that I am your soulmate and am waiting for you to come over and share with me the happiness and delight which my home here gives me. No spirit can love its soulmate more than I do you and no mortal can love so much. Be my own true sweetheart, and even though you do not have the assurance that I am with you as I say, yet, I am and nothing in all the world can keep me from you.

So, if you will only believe in me and in my love, you will realize that I am with you and will feel my love and my presence, even though your physical senses may not be able to tell you anything.

But the sense of two souls, which are decreed by our Father to be one, will tell you, at times, that I am one and you are the other, and that the two will, through all eternity, become and remain one in love and happiness.

So you see, even though we cannot exchange our love so very often in words, yet in our feelings and sensations, we may know that our love for each other is existing and burning with a brightness that nothing can extinguish, not even your thoughts that I am a mere myth and not your own true, loving soulmate.

Be only closer to me in your thoughts and you will realize that I am your Rose, as I once told you. You sometimes doubt that you saw me and felt my kiss on your forehead, and that I have no real existence, but I tell you with all my soul's love that it was I that kissed you and told you that I was your soulmate.

Oh, my darling one, do not doubt me again if you value my happiness. Let my love for you keep your thoughts in the way of things spiritual, for I can see that you are inclined to the higher things of the spirit life and, if you desire to come to me and live with me when you come over, seek the real love of our Father for in that you will find everything that will make your soul develop until when you come to me I will meet you and take you to my home, where you will find that I have prepared a home for you so beautiful that you will wonder how I could have loved you so much and thought so much about your happiness.

You are the only one for me to think of in this way, and when you stop for a moment and think of what love means, you will see that I could not do otherwise than try to make you happy.

There is one other thing that I want to tell you, and that is you must have no fear of what is called death, because it is not death, but an entrance into life, and when you come over I will be right at your bedside, and as your spirit passes from your body, I will take you in my arms and carry you to the home which I have prepared for you.

Of course, this means, if you have developed your soul to such an extent as will permit you to enter my home and, even if you have not, I will be with you as the soul leaves the body and fold you in my arms and say such words of burning love that you will not be afraid or want to be anywhere else than with me.

So you see, in life or death or after death, I will be with you and my love will envelope you in the great happiness which I have and want you to have.

As I have already taken up more of Mr. Padgett's time and strength than I intended, I must stop, but in doing so say with all my heart and soul, I love you and will love you through all eternity my own dear Frank.

Helen writes that she was impressed with what Mr. Padgett said to Dr. Stone about the Love of God flowing into the heart, also locates Judge Syrick's Soulmate.

Various Experiences of Spirits When They Arrive in the Spirit World, part two

This work to me is one that is not only interesting, but which gives me the great happiness that comes with the realization that I have been the means of leading a spirit to learn to love God and to receive the happiness which the love of God gives to spirits. I tell you that this teaching is the grandest that I ever engaged in all my life.

When on earth as I taught and saw the young mind develop, I found much happiness in the knowledge that I was doing some good. But here, in my teachings, when I see a soul develop, I realize that I am doing a spirit that greatest of all good in bringing it at-one in love with the Father and happiness here and that of earth, as the soul development is so much greater than the development of the mere mind.

My work is not confined entirely to this teaching. I also am engaged in trying to assist mortals to a true conception of the life here - I mean the spiritual part of this life.

No man is entirely without spirit influence, whether good or evil. Many are susceptible to the influence of the evil spirits and, for that reason, the work of the good spirits is so much more difficult. There is in man's nature that which leads him to evil thoughts so much easier than to good thoughts. This is an old saying, I know, but is a true one, and the fact that it has been said so often and for so long a time does not decrease the importance of it as a truth.

So while men have felt this evil inclination in their nature, the fight between the good and evil influences will be somewhat unequal. The advantage though with the good influences is that what they suggest is truth which will never die, while the suggestions of the evil influences last only for a comparatively short time.

When the material gives up the spirit being which it clothes, that being will then be relieved of many of these natural tendencies to evil thoughts and deeds and, while this mere separation does not make a devil a saint, it makes it so much easier for the spirit to get rid of many of these evil tendencies and makes him more susceptible to the influence of truth and goodness.

You must not think from this as soon as they have been in the spirit world for a little time, they become good spirits, for that is not true. Many evil spirits have been in the spirit world for a great many years and, yet, have their evil thoughts and desires and all the evil qualities of hatred, malice, envy, etc., as when they were on earth.

Their giving up the earth life did not deprive them of their will, the greatest force or power that God gave to man, except that of love. And many of these spirits refuse to exercise their will in a way that will enable them to rid themselves of these evil thoughts and desires.

So you see, the mere fact of becoming a spirit does not mean that the mortal has become a good and saintly spirit. No, I am sorry to say that many men who were very evil on earth are still evil as spirits and their happiness, which they think they have, is only that happiness which they, as men, thought they realized from the exercise of evil thoughts and acts.

Yet, there is one great redeeming fact connected with their dark and sad condition and, that is, that in the end, whenever it so pleases God, all evil will be banished from the spirit world, and all spirits will be given that happiness which comes from a nature free from sin and error. Not by the fiat of God, but by men seeking and doing those things that will free the soul from sin and error and again come into harmony with God's laws. Just such I imagine as Adam and Eve enjoyed in the historical Garden of Eden.

But that happiness, while of a character that brings much contentment and peace, yet is not the true happiness which God is waiting to give all His children who ask and seek for the inflowing of the Divine Love in their souls.

I will not discourse on this great happiness tonight as it would take too long and you are somewhat tired, but will say that all men should seek for it both on earth and in the spirit world. When on earth I did not have it, but since I came here I found it and now possess it, thanks be to God and His loving kindness.

You folks all have it and many others too numerous to mention.

Let me stop now as I am tired and you need to rest. So with all my love and best wishes,

I am your old professor,
Joseph H. Salyards

Importance of Getting Divine Love in Our Soul

If you keep on trying to have more of God's Love in your soul, you will soon realize the full joy and peace which comes with such possession. Try to let your heart receive more of His Love, for He is always ready and waiting to bestow His Love upon you.

He is the one Lovely Father for you to long for and keep with you in all your thoughts and aspirations. Do not let the worries of life keep you from loving and believing that He wants you to become one with Him in Love and Grace. He is not only waiting for you to let His Love flow into your heart, but He is anxiously knocking at the door of your heart, that you may open and let Him enter.

Be true to your best spiritual longings, and you will soon feel that you have got that in your soul which will give you perfect peace and happiness. You must feel that your Father is so near you, that He must become a part of your life and being.

When that Love has fully taken possession of you, you will know that you are His own true and reconciled child, just as all are who have come into a realization of that Love.

You must not let the things of your earth life keep you from the higher things that the Father has prepared to give you. The only things worth striving after are the things of this spiritual Love of the Father. Be more anxious to get this knowledge, and it will come to you in all its beauty and convincing force. If you could see the Holy Spirit's work among mortals and spirits, then you would not doubt any more that God is a God of Love, and not of anger or retribution.

Keep praying, for that is the one great means to receive the Love of God. Without prayer we cannot reach the answering ear of the Father's Grace. He will hear the penitent only, for He will not accept anyone who is not truly and earnestly seeking Him.

We have a will to either accept or reject the Love of God, and until we exercise our will in a way to show that we want this Love, it will not be given to us. No one is ever forced to love God or to let God's Love come into our heart.

The Love of God cannot be defined, for it passes all understanding, but the result of that Love, when in our souls, can be seen and felt in the exceeding beauty in our countenances and in our wonderful happiness.

No fear of death or anything that makes us afraid can possibly exist where this Love is. It is not the Love that permits any feelings of jealousy or envy to have an entrance, but is so perfect and all soul filling that there cannot possibly be any room for anything but its own great self.

The Love of God is the only thing that can make us supremely happy while on earth and after we become a spirit.
