Opening
ABRAHAM: I am ABRAHAM. Greetings. I am sensing a great deal of peace emanating from you, when I would half expect to view chaos. I love your humor and good nature and I am inspired by your willingness to turn your minds toward the Father and attain and redirect your personal energy. I thank you. I am always made happy by our gathering because it is a good opportunity to step away from the material life and be a child of God.
Lesson
Can you imagine all material bodies fade away, along with material issues and we are simply a room full of souls ready to listen and learn? That is a lot of what it is like when you pass through the material veil into the next adventure in the spirit. We are blessed to have the knowledge that the Correcting Time has brought because we are seeing eternally. Our material lives become just another day in what will be a long spiritual career in eternity.
MARY: I am MARY, again so grateful to be with you. I am in agreement with Abraham when he ponders the spiritual career. I know it is a giant step to even think about. I believe he is speaking of the blessings that are upon us because of the Correcting Time. I have researched this present age and I am trying to find the core reasons of what drives the mortals of today. I see you are inundated with information and the popularity of the materialistic drive. I am in understanding of how the world will create classes of individuals and support a sort of segregation.
I am overjoyed to see the individual who comes to the Father and releases any notions of individual worldly status, meaning you really feel a part of Father’s Kingdom and accept the fact that your fellows are your brothers and sisters. Beyond the flesh we are all equal. It is that view we focus on when working on self-mastery. Does the flesh drive your life, your wants and needs? Are we fulfilled by what we acquire as animals or do we seek the attainment of spiritual fruit?
I can give to you my own experience of that burden of the material life. For the most part I had nothing and in that day and age, it labeled me and unfortunately I listened to that rhetoric. It is strange now to look back at the person I was and know that I longed to be somebody else. I thought the people who were in material abundance were satisfied with the mortal life. I had not the sense of family and the possibilities of knowing I could be loved exactly as I was.
I thank the Father every day for those sisters who came to minister to me. I rejected their words at first. They were so patient in helping me to at least open my mind to the possibility that I was part of an extended family. As I mingled among the brothers and sisters that were serving the cause for Jesus, I began to see my equality among them. The ease of attitude that the Master bestowed was permission to go beyond my material eyes and find my worth as a child of God.
At that time I had to really go look within myself to find what I truly desired. Was it money, a suitable partner, children perhaps? Was it recognition, fame or was it the solid faith in knowing I was loved and had a fulfilling destiny before me? It was truly up to me. As I was saying at the top of the discussion, what is it that drives mortals to live as they do? What is most important? The Father longs for your happiness and would never deny you your dreams. He is there. He has carefully set before you various tasks to complete. He desires your vision to go beyond the flesh.
Closing
MARY: This week let us pay attention to our levels of comfort in a crowd or with an authority figure perhaps. How does our comfort with the spirit actualize in our everyday lives? Tell me, in your own time, what drives you to carry on? I am in growing love for you each. Abraham and myself are so appreciative of your willingness to go forward with the Correcting Time. We can only look back and learn–let us not dwell there long. As always, we send you with our love. Until next time, shalom.
