What do you think of when I say up, up, and away?

SPEAKER_01 0:06

What if I told you that there's more to it? That there are benefits and resources from heaven that are available to help you in this life, and you've never heard about them. Are you curious? Well, join Gordon Merrill as he digs deeper into making heaven real in this life.

Well, if you're older like me, you may be recalling the 1967 song by the fifth dimension that was My Beautiful Balloon, and it was titled Up and Away. While we're not considering floating away in a balloon, some of the lyrics kind of hint towards some things that we may want to discuss a little bit more today. Now there's a lot of controversy as to what those lyrics were about and what generated those lyrics and all of that, but I think some of the lines in the lyrics point to something that not only shows the universal desire for something more, but also some kind of a way of a human trying to describe something more. Some of the lyrics even talk about, well, we could float among the stars together, you and I. It's kind of interesting the way that comes out. When we're doing this, when we're floating in this balloon, the world's a nicer place. It wears a nicer face. Is this a spirit? Longing for more desiring more. And hinted at being jealous of me because she said I was cheating because of the very things that I've been describing on this podcast. My answer to her almost immediately was it's not cheating. It's connected. Let's go back to our college example for a minute. If you were taking a master's level class in modern rocketry, okay, so yes, I am turning this into rocket science, I'm sorry. But if you were taking that kind of a class, would you turn down the chance to study for the final exam with Warner von Braun? The father of modern rocketry? All of that vast knowledge that he has in that topic, all of the vast experience he has that he can bring to the table to help you study for the exam, would you turn that down? No. So let's go back for a little bit and let's reconsider what we're looking at with our STC or our spirit team. Your spirit team has been with you and been around you for all of the lives that you have encountered as part of your degree program. All the individual classes. So think back to the college. If I'm enrolled in college in a degree, then my counselors, my advisors, my teachers, the chair of my program has in front of them the entire map of everything that I've covered, everything I've completed, every requirement that has been taken care of on my path to completing the degree. So your spirit team has the same thing. Ever heard of the Akashic Record? So your spirit team has access to that Akashic record. They have access to everything that has happened to you, done with you, for you, about you in all of your previous classes. I think I mentioned on here once that my wife has told me that she and I have been together in many past lives for up to 9,000 years. All of that history is in the Kashic record. All of that history is available to the spirit team. The spirit team has experienced all of that with you to this point. So if they know everything, they have the entire record in front of you, they have your life's plan sitting in front of you, in front of them right now, they know where you are and what you've accomplished on this life and what's left to be accomplished in life. Technically, your spirit team are what we would call rocket scientists in this case. So is it cheating? No. If anything, it may be just good stewardship. We're making use of all available resources and using those resources wisely. Now I've made a lot of mention about all of that through most of the episodes to this point, and talked about the communication and the spirit team and having all of that available to you and having them manage your day for you and keep you on the right track and keep you on course for completing your class for this lifetime. No, this is not immediate. For me, it's been a two-year journey just to get to this point. But what I can tell you, and what has been confirmed for me, is every spirit on this earth has a spirit team, has had the same spirit team before they even came back to this earth. And your spirit team has what they call a sinner. To me, I think that's kind of obvious in all kinds of ways, or remarkable in all kinds of ways. There's no power struggle titles like president or captain or commander or anything like that. It's just, hmm, this person is the center of your spirit team. Every spirit team has a mix of members who represent all areas about what heaven can bring to bear for your heavenly equity as needed. From archangels to angels to ancestors to ascended masters, guardian angels, guardian spirits, all kinds of resources available on your spirit team. And all of that's available to you. Now I will tell you that in my case, I've been discussing my example, which is the only thing I really know at this point. I don't know anything about anybody else's spirit team, which makes sense. But I will tell you that not everyone will have their spouse as their team center like I do right now. Just to give you a couple examples, especially about the timeline that we're talking about. When my f wife first passed, it seemed like it was very dark for a while. And we've talked about that from the physiological side of things and how that sudden loss and the onset of severe grief has physiological changes in your body that causes those kind of reactions or those kinds of dark times. But what I came to find out later down the road is initially my wife took on a task that she felt really close to. She was a clinical educator. She taught all kinds of classes and enjoyed teaching. She was a high-level certified nurse, and she was also an attorney. So at first, when she went to heaven, one of the things that she liked to do was help nursing and legal students remember what they had studied for their test. She wouldn't give them answers, but I'm sure that most of us have run into a situation where we were very apprehensive when we were taking a test. And as part of that, the apprehensive got in the way of what we knew or what we had studied. And when we get done with the test and walk out of the room, we kind of smack ourselves in the head and go, I knew that. Well, that was what she was doing. But she was helping them remember what they knew and helping them through the test. But then there came a time when the spirit team came to her and go, you know, you really don't need to do that as much as what you are right now because right now you need to be helping your husband with this podcast. Sudden change. And when that happened, the amount of communication with her increased and grew more intense. Another example she relayed to me was she knows about a spirit up there who was very big in the military, retired from the military, and right now he is very happy being about his business in heaven of helping veterans. So he's probably not the center of the spirit team of his wife or other family members because he's busily engaged in doing this work. He is more than likely on the spirit team. He is a contributor, but he may not be the focal point of the who you are hearing from. So if his wife is trying to hear from him, she may be hearing from the spirit team, but not hearing directly from him immediately. Just like what happened when my wife passed. But you do have a spirit team, you do have a team center, and you do have somebody who heads up communication with you. One of the other possibilities is your spouse, if they are departed for a long period of time, several years, you may not hear from them directly because they may have returned to Earth for yet another class in their degree. I think one of the things that I want to kind of get across, and I'll I'll turn this into almost like a spoiler alert. Your soul is ready to rise. You don't have to force it. All you have to do is get out of the way. Remember when we were talking about spirit and human and the two wolves and whichever one you feed is the one that wins. And we also talked about how you get in trouble sometimes or you get delayed on your life's plan if you allow the human side to overrule your spirit side. And if you let the human side overrule your spirit side, that's an act of free will. We talked about that as well. God will never get in the way of your free will. So consider this. Since we know we are spirits in human form for this journey, do you ever think that we may have actually been sent for a spiritual mission as well? If we make free will choices that allow our human side to overrule our spirit side, what do you think that does not only to our life's plan, but also our mission? If this is true, then no wonder our spirit is ready to rise and soar if we just get out of the way. It's not a matter of cheating. It's a matter of communicating. We're not escaping this life. We're excelling at this life by lifting our spirit into a clearer, stronger, more fulfilled version of ourselves. Which is how we learn, grow, and mature. Don't hate. Communicate. Up up in the way is heaven's reminder that you are meant to rise gently, steadily, and with the full support of the love that surrounds you. That's your spirit team. When you allow your spirit side to take charge of your life, allow your spirit team to manage your journey, feel your spirit rise as you learn, grow, and mature, and release the weight of your human control. You'll be surprised at how naturally your spirit starts to rise. And you will also be witness to how your rising spirit lifts others and makes heaven real in their lives as well.
