Thought Adjuster: “The understanding of spiritual values and meanings to be achieved by a human mind, and even by morontial minds, requires time. Here we are talking about a full understanding at the highest possible degree for the level of existence where you find yourself. Spiritual progress always has to be completed in such a way that you achieve everything you can for any particular stage on your journey to perfection. However, all knowledge is always partial. You can achieve great deep spiritual progress and self-mastery in this world, but these human achievements will always be enhanced in morontia and the spiritual worlds.
“Patience and consistency are not ideas that can only be understood in theory. You should possess in your mind all the facts that promote the meaning of being patient and consistent, but you also must go through experiences where you have plenty of opportunity to exercise patience and consistency, so that these values become part of your being in eternity. How will you know without a doubt that you are a patient person if you never had to practice patience? After many years dedicated to the task of knowing the will of God and trying to live according to this will, cultivating an increasingly perfected being, you will be certain that you have mastered patience and consistency, because in the face of many opportunities to despair for the apparent lentitude of your progress, you remained steadfast in your intent and you did not abandon the struggle of faith.
“Know that each day something to help you move closer to your eternal destiny happens. Some of you have experienced some events in which the clarity of understanding becomes so evident that you are overcome with emotion, but these are not the only signs of spiritual progress. True progress happens slowly, day by day, when in the face of the challenges of life you keep in your heart the resolution to find the Father in your heart and you do the necessary small adjustments to reach that goal, with the patience and the consistency of an artist that works on her master piece for many years until she considers it ready to share the beauty of her creation and allow it to be a source of joy and inspiration to others.
“You are the artists who are creating – in cooperation with the Father – the human souls that will be the glory and the joy of creation, because they will be expressions of the truth, beauty, and goodness of God for all the beings of the universes. These souls are those who will work co-creatively with God for the establishment of His will upon all there is, creating a greater universe of light and life.”
