Episode Transcript

SPEAKER_00 (00:01):
What do you think of when I say up, up, and away?

SPEAKER_01 (00:06):
What if I told you that there's more to it?
That there are benefits andresources from heaven that are
available to help you in thislife, and you've never heard
about them.
Are you curious?
Well, join Gordon Merrill as hedigs deeper into making heaven
real in this life.

SPEAKER_00 (00:32):
Well, if you're older like me, you may be
recalling the 1967 song by thefifth dimension that was My
Beautiful Balloon, and it wastitled Up and Away.
While we're not consideringfloating away in a balloon, some
of the lyrics kind of hinttowards some things that we may

(00:56):
want to discuss a little bitmore today.
Now there's a lot of controversyas to what those lyrics were
about and what generated thoselyrics and all of that, but I
think some of the lines in thelyrics point to something that
not only shows the universaldesire for something more, but

(01:23):
also some kind of a way of ahuman trying to describe
something more.
Some of the lyrics even talkabout, well, we could float
among the stars together, youand I.
It's kind of interesting the waythat comes out.

(01:43):
When we're doing this, whenwe'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.

(02:11):
And hinted at being jealous ofme because she said I was
cheating because of the verythings that I've been describing
on this podcast.
My answer to her almostimmediately was it's not
cheating.
It's connected.

(02:34):
Let's go back to our collegeexample for a minute.
If you were taking a master'slevel class in modern rocketry,
okay, so yes, I am turning thisinto rocket science, I'm sorry.
But if you were taking that kindof a class, would you turn down
the chance to study for thefinal exam with Warner von

(02:54):
Braun?
The father of modern rocketry?
All of that vast knowledge thathe has in that topic, all of the
vast experience he has that hecan bring to the table to help
you study for the exam, wouldyou turn that down?

(03:16):
No.
So let's go back for a littlebit and let's reconsider what
we're looking at with our STC orour spirit team.
Your spirit team has been withyou and been around you for all
of the lives that you haveencountered as part of your

(03:41):
degree program.
All the individual classes.
So think back to the college.
If I'm enrolled in college in adegree, then my counselors, my
advisors, my teachers, the chairof my program has in front of
them the entire map ofeverything that I've covered,

(04:04):
everything I've completed, everyrequirement that has been taken
care of on my path to completingthe degree.
So your spirit team has the samething.
Ever heard of the AkashicRecord?
So your spirit team has accessto that Akashic record.

(04:27):
They have access to everythingthat has happened to you, done
with you, for you, about you inall of your previous classes.
I think I mentioned on here oncethat my wife has told me that
she and I have been together inmany past lives for up to 9,000

(04:49):
years.
All of that history is in theKashic record.
All of that history is availableto the spirit team.
The spirit team has experiencedall of that with you to this
point.

(05:09):
So if they know everything, theyhave the entire record in front
of you, they have your life'splan sitting in front of you, in
front of them right now, theyknow where you are and what
you've accomplished on this lifeand what's left to be
accomplished in life.
Technically, your spirit teamare what we would call rocket

(05:32):
scientists in this case.
So is it cheating?
No.
If anything, it may be just goodstewardship.
We're making use of allavailable resources and using
those resources wisely.

(05:55):
Now I've made a lot of mentionabout all of that through most
of the episodes to this point,and talked about the
communication and the spiritteam and having all of that
available to you and having themmanage your day for you and keep
you on the right track and keepyou on course for completing

(06:16):
your class for this lifetime.
No, this is not immediate.
For me, it's been a two-yearjourney just to get to this
point.
But what I can tell you, andwhat has been confirmed for me,

(06:37):
is every spirit on this earthhas a spirit team, has had the
same spirit team before theyeven came back to this earth.
And your spirit team has whatthey call a sinner.
To me, I think that's kind ofobvious in all kinds of ways, or

(06:57):
remarkable in all kinds of ways.
There's no power struggle titleslike president or captain or
commander or anything like that.
It's just, hmm, this person isthe center of your spirit team.

(07:19):
Every spirit team has a mix ofmembers who represent all areas
about what heaven can bring tobear for your heavenly equity as
needed.
From archangels to angels toancestors to ascended masters,

(07:44):
guardian angels, guardianspirits, all kinds of resources
available on your spirit team.
And all of that's available toyou.
Now I will tell you that in mycase, I've been discussing my

(08:04):
example, which is the only thingI really know at this point.
I don't know anything aboutanybody else's spirit team,
which makes sense.
But I will tell you that noteveryone will have their spouse
as their team center like I doright now.
Just to give you a coupleexamples, especially about the

(08:26):
timeline that we're talkingabout.
When my f wife first passed, itseemed like it was very dark for
a while.
And we've talked about that fromthe physiological side of things
and how that sudden loss and theonset of severe grief has

(08:48):
physiological changes in yourbody that causes those kind of
reactions or those kinds of darktimes.
But what I came to find outlater down the road is initially
my wife took on a task that shefelt really close to.

(09:14):
She was a clinical educator.
She taught all kinds of classesand enjoyed teaching.
She was a high-level certifiednurse, and she was also an
attorney.
So at first, when she went toheaven, one of the things that

(09:34):
she liked to do was help nursingand 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 wherewe were very apprehensive when
we were taking a test.

(09:54):
And as part of that, theapprehensive got in the way of
what we knew or what we hadstudied.
And when we get done with thetest and walk out of the room,
we kind of smack ourselves inthe head and go, I knew that.
Well, that was what she wasdoing.
But she was helping themremember what they knew and
helping them through the test.

(10:16):
But then there came a time whenthe spirit team came to her and
go, you know, you really don'tneed to do that as much as what
you are right now because rightnow you need to be helping your
husband with this podcast.
Sudden change.
And when that happened, theamount of communication with her

(10:45):
increased and grew more intense.
Another example she relayed tome was she knows about a spirit
up there who was very big in themilitary, retired from the
military, and right now he isvery happy being about his

(11:10):
business in heaven of helpingveterans.
So he's probably not the centerof the spirit team of his wife
or other family members becausehe's busily engaged in doing
this work.
He is more than likely on thespirit team.

(11:33):
He is a contributor, but he maynot be the focal point of the
who you are hearing from.
So if his wife is trying to hearfrom him, she may be hearing
from the spirit team, but nothearing directly from him
immediately.
Just like what happened when mywife passed.

(11:56):
But you do have a spirit team,you do have a team center, and
you do have somebody who headsup communication with you.
One of the other possibilitiesis your spouse, if they are
departed for a long period oftime, several years, you may not

(12:19):
hear from them directly becausethey may have returned to Earth
for yet another class in theirdegree.
I think one of the things that Iwant to kind of get across, and
I'll I'll turn this into almostlike a spoiler alert.

(12:43):
Your soul is ready to rise.
You don't have to force it.
All you have to do is get out ofthe way.
Remember when we were talkingabout spirit and human and the
two wolves and whichever one youfeed is the one that wins.

(13:04):
And we also talked about how youget in trouble sometimes or you
get delayed on your life's planif you allow the human side to
overrule your spirit side.
And if you let the human sideoverrule your spirit side,

(13:25):
that's an act of free will.
We talked about that as well.
God will never get in the way ofyour free will.
So consider this.
Since we know we are spirits inhuman form for this journey, do
you ever think that we may haveactually been sent for a

(13:48):
spiritual mission as well?
If we make free will choicesthat allow our human side to
overrule our spirit side, whatdo you think that does not only
to our life's plan, but also ourmission?

(14:09):
If this is true, then no wonderour spirit is ready to rise and
soar if we just get out of theway.
It's not a matter of cheating.
It's a matter of communicating.

(14:30):
We're not escaping this life.
We're excelling at this life bylifting our spirit into a
clearer, stronger, morefulfilled version of ourselves.
Which is how we learn, grow, andmature.

(14:53):
Don't hate.
Communicate.
Up up in the way is heaven'sreminder that you are meant to
rise gently, steadily, and withthe full support of the love
that surrounds you.
That's your spirit team.

(15:15):
When you allow your spirit sideto take charge of your life,
allow your spirit team to manageyour journey, feel your spirit
rise as you learn, grow, andmature, and release the weight
of your human control.
You'll be surprised at hownaturally your spirit starts to

(15:38):
rise.
And you will also be witness tohow your rising spirit lifts
others and makes heaven real intheir lives as well.
