Opening
I am ABRAHAM. Greetings. I am so honored you each listen for me. I am always comforted by your welcoming attitudes. I believe this helps me to be a better teacher and friend. Every week when I prepare for the lesson I always give my commitment to Father. I tell Him He has the floor and we are open for whatever He may teach us.
I get somewhat involved in your daily lives, as does Mary. A lot of mortal living is like our own issues of long ago, but then again, there are so many new issues that evolution has brought. I am always made to keep training so that I can keep up with you and the Master’s cause, our beloved Correcting Time. I am more and more with the belief that aging is wonderful. All those trivial material issues fall by the wayside. We can dig deeper into spiritual education and receive meanings and values that are not of this world.
I am MARY. It is such a time of family unity when we come to visit. I am learning your personalities and you each bring a smile to my face. I am inspired by your efforts to endure and push forward to keep the wheels of our Correcting Time in motion.
Lesson
As I think back to my days in the flesh, I have memories of such all-pervading fear. I felt emotionally paralyzed and mentally blocked. I had learned from the Master how our Father, with the assistance of angels, create educational lessons for us to grow. It was strange how those things I most feared were right before my face. I wanted to grow in the spirit and yet, I hid from the actual lessons. We all fear pain and our basic instinct is to escape. Father is in total understanding.
I can remember working with my sisters and feeling completely inadequate. I had some knowledge of medical assisting and yet, I had such fear of making mistakes. I was so nervous that my hands could not relate with what my brain was conveying. As I felt more comfortable among my sisters, I seemed to gather some ability. I began to focus on the work and let myself go. I had accepted the fact that I would make mistakes. I still do make mistakes, but we must always remain in a forward motion. We cannot stop to dwell when we are in the midst of ministry.
As I tended to patients I began to feel healed myself. Some of these people were in the worst physical condition and yet, their spirit was so alive. These individuals really became a part of who I was becoming. In the moments of this loving ministry I could find my true desire to help. My self-consciousness took a backseat and my instinct began to take over. The more I was connected to Father, the more confidence I had in my ability to do anything.
Abraham is right when he speaks of growing wisdom with the passing years. Those things that seem unreachable while you are young become a reality as you gain experience. Love, serenity, healing, fellowship all become a reality. I am thinking the mortal life is such an adventure. Awareness would be a wonderful emphasis to place as the top priority.
Closing
This week I believe it is suggested that we face our fears and be aware of what Father and His associates might bring to you. I say sit down with pen and paper. Be not afraid of those difficult lessons. Trust me; there is peace on the other side. That is all for this evening. If you so desire we shall accept questions next week. We thank you. You know our love is continually growing for you each. Go in peace. Until next time, shalom.
