Opening
ABRAHAM: I am ABRAHAM. Greetings. I love coming to this meeting each week because I like to hear you discuss the real issues and yet, keep it all in perspective with humor and practicality. Well done.
Lesson
I am also inspired by the fact that you each come to serve in some capacity for no thought of reward. You have seemingly very little expectations and that makes it easier for me to put across my real meaning. Your interest here is truly what is good for the whole. Your souls are fed and that is because you are open to the Father’s will. You, Correcting Time participants, will not ever be set upon a stage in front of all to receive any kind of trophy or award and you know that and you stay the course. You embrace reality as it comes.
There are comfort levels in this group that seem to not travel with you throughout the week. There are temptations to push personal agenda. This is not to bring guilt but simply to bring awareness. Anxiety brings chaos and discomfort. It is certainly detrimental to the spiritual connections to the mortal mind. A general feeling of well-being is adequate to help one to be open to change and spiritual guidance. These well-balanced comfort levels apply to most areas of mortal living.
Some days you are in the flow–some days you are not. This is common and to be expected. I am simply suggesting that the more simple your material life, the less anxiety you will have. There are live connections in the brain that are most effective without becoming caught up in the drama of life. One who has their priorities in focus is able to feel less chaos and receive step by step instructions on how to achieve particular goals.
Are your goals in line with Father’s? Only you can answer. One who is doing their best moment by moment, without desire to see any outcome or receive some benefit is probably most likely to live a life less chaotic. It is necessary at least once a day to find time to settle the soul or feed the spirit. I speak not of gaining entry into the heavens but living a mortal life spiritually, as the Master, Himself, had lived.
The Master was the embodiment of efficiency without being controlling. He had not need to control to feed His soul, to feel value, no. His primary focus was to do His job that He was sent to do. He was unshakable in attitude and faith, and much of that was due to His promise to serve the one God. It was His desire to be about the Father’s business, in whatever form that came in. In that focus He was able to maintain strength in character and spirit.
A great deal of the mortal life is about self-mastery and overcoming weakness. A pure connection to Father is key, pure connection meaning without ulterior motives. It means to stay the course without fear, to love without worry of loss, to live each day as if it were the last.
Closing
Our lesson is short this evening. Go into this week with thoughts of what your priorities seem to be. Where is your focus? Can you take the comfort level that you feel here out into the material world? How can we best be of service without the need to control? How much do we worry about how our actions reflect who we truly are to other people? Allow a small frame of time to feed the soul, to make those connections that lead you to live your best life. My love is ever increasing for you each. Until next week, shalom
