The Beloved One. “Each task set before you is a lesson to be learned. If a task seems repetitive, it is because you have yet to learn more as lessons can be expanded upon so you can gain a greater and deeper understanding you would otherwise miss out on. This is called, the garnering of wisdom.
“You realize, it is not the growing old that matters. It is the growing wiser that is of prime importance. It is an understanding that motivates you when you ‘fly off the handle’ in certain situations. Could it be something you have not as yet mastered? Then indeed, it follows that there is more work to be done in the area of self-discipline, for it is My desire as much as it is yours, that you cultivate a harmonious character poised in beauty and grace.
“Knowing you as well as I do, I know that more self-correction would be very beneficial towards self-mastery, and that is why certain circumstances will arise to test you, in order for you to discover how much you have gained.
“You are making progress in self-control when you immediately turn within to My calming presence. Let this thought take a strong hold on you. Let it sink into your cellular level, so you will not forget this. I have placed you in the most ideal of circumstances to learn this most difficult lesson amid the most trying of situations.
“I know you will eventually come to see this My way, I have the greatest confidence in you that you shall overcome all, as I know the most intimate and secret desires of your heart.
“I am the one, who totally understands your frustrations at not being understood, and having your words misconstrued. Remember however, that everyone needs to master their lessons in their own time, after they show a readiness therefore.
“Each mortal is at his or her personal level of inner development and self-correction. The older and wiser ones need to by example teach the younger ones this often-times painful lesson in self-control. Do not ever grow discouraged when you are tested, and find that you still have a way to go towards an ideal balance in all manner of things.
“Remember to turn within to Me, especially when frustrated or upset.”
