Teacher: Thought Adjuster.
Subject: “The Journey of Faith.”
Message received by Oscar.
Thought Adjuster: “In the beginning, you start your journey of faith based on the truths you hear from others. However, even then there is something within you that responds and somehow confirms that those words you heard contain a hint of truth. That which is true and relevant for your life is always confirmed by the Spirit of Truth and preserved by your Thought Adjuster as a bona-fide spiritual experience.
“With time, curiosity that inspires you to know more awakens in you — a hunger for truth. You continue searching and you find more answers to your questions. Soon you start to notice a pattern, an invisible hand that guides your efforts, leading you to where you need to go in order to learn new and valuable lessons.
“Later a true desire for perfection arises in you and you will have the chance to decide that the best you can do with your life and that the most beneficial course of action for yourself is to attempt to know the will of the Father and express this will through your actions. This impulse to be better every day will transform you into a creature less material and more in sync with the next level of existence — the Morontia level.
“This will be a natural process — maybe you may see it as a slow process from your impatient human point of view — but the speed in which these stages are reached is not important, because in eternity time is truly irrelevant. Soon you will observe that this desire to be more like God becomes ever-present in your life and the need to be in communion with your Father — adoration — inspires you continuously to search for His voice in stillness. You will also notice how unconditional love starts to manifest through you to your siblings in this world, which is the definitive evidence of the fact that you will have found God.
“This is how a human being comes progressively closer to God and moves toward perfection. There are no shortcuts or important variations in this method. This is the way of true experience. The initial approach may be promoted in different ways and while some may follow the whispers of their Thought Adjusters others may need to be shaken in order to awaken.
“You can’t try to love others without really knowing unconditional love and you can’t pretend to be perfect without having the inspiration of becoming like your Father. This would be like going to a new city to visit a friend without knowing where that person lives. Spiritual awakening is a slow and progressive road, but those who venture onto this road will find success if they have the courage to follow the guidance of the divine presence within them.”
