Subject: “Unconditionally Accepted”
Message received by Oscar.
Thought Adjuster: “The presence of God in human life is only demonstrable through the individual experience of each soul. This experience can be unconscious like a sensation of being safe and a trust that somehow everything is well and our destiny is secured. The presence of God is not an intellectual realization or an idea to offer solace to overwhelmed minds when the normal situations of life bring them challenges and trials.
You can feel the presence of God when you observe the fruits of spirit manifesting in your life. A common one is the peace that feels like a balm in the lives of those who know they are children of God. This is not an expression of ease when everything goes well. It is rather a state of calm that is not altered even when everything seems wrong. It is the certainty that even when appearances suggest the opposite, the universe is under control and it is a place where we are unconditionally accepted.
The fruits of spirit seldom have anything to do with the desires of human beings. The wishes of men are generally materialistic and are his intellectual creations. The fruits of spirit arise spontaneously, even when a person knows that she may have never consciously wished for such things, because before a spiritual awakening, those things were undefinable to her. Human beings can desire to love their peers, but when this love truly becomes an experience in their lives through the effort of knowing the Father better, they discover that the characteristics and the way in which this love is expressed could have not been anticipated before in their lives.
The spiritual fruits are always surprising in their modes of expression, but not in their eventual achievement. All those who truly desire to know the will of the Father and then consciously decide to align themselves with this will can be certain of the appearance of those banners of perfection that so eloquently announce to the universes that another human being has awakened to her true purpose.”

Message received by Lytske.
The Beloved: “The best way to grow in spirit is to always choose the better way – the way of truth, beauty and goodness. In everything, even in the ordinary humdrum of life, it is spirit value that you must seek, and in doing so you will be inspired and lifted up.
Indeed, life can become an experience of resurrection when you turn your mind away from the depressing and fear-ridden tomb mentality and into the sunlight of the risen Christ who overcame all manner of evil and injustice perpetrated against Him.
By steadfastly refusing to use His power as the Creator and Ruler of this mighty universe, and in His triumph, He showed once and for all that even death has no hold on Him. Even as the Son of Man, the title which He earned during His life in the flesh, He triumphed over physical death. This is His gift to you, the knowledge of life everlasting!
Great was His faithfulness to His Father in heaven when He proclaimed the love of the Father for all His mortal offspring on earth, as well as announcing the brotherhood and sisterhood of all humankind under God.
After His Ascension, He sent His promised Helper, the Spirit of Truth, whilst at the same time the Father gave His Gifts, Fragments of himself in great numbers to indwell the minds of mortals. Ever since that day as well, the Mother Spirit contributed Her Holy Spirit as the Comforter to indwell all mortals.
Indeed, you have never been cosmic orphans. It is merely human forgetfulness that makes everything look bleak and hopeless, when all you have to do is flex your faith muscle and sufficiently trust Me to come into the Stillness where I am waiting to nurture and instruct you.
In order for you to make spiritual progress, I need your sincere and dedicated effort. Will you not trust Me in this?
Even the feeblest attempt on your part shall be richly rewarded.
All I ask of you is to never give up in your attempts to seek Me in the Silence of your heart.”

Subject: “Be an Entry Point.”
Message received by Anyas.
“[T]he measure of your human strength of character is your ability to resist the holding of grudges and your capacity to withstand brooding in the face of deep sorrow. [. . .] Tact is the fulcrum of social leverage, and tolerance is the earmark of a great soul. If you possess these rare and charming gifts, as the days pass you will become more alert and expert in your worthy efforts to avoid all unnecessary social misunderstandings.” [UB, 156:5.17-18]
Thought Adjuster: “In his travels, Jesus presented liberating truth in a palatable form so as to whet the spiritual appetite of his associates. His constant intentions were to facilitate their induction into the kingdom of the hearts — lifetime citizenship acquired by passing many surprise character tests.
Faith issues your green card, but you will only qualify for permanent citizenship once you no longer pose a threat to the heavenly peace of this inner promised land by consistently acting tactfully with your fellow men — especially those who try your patience.
From this perspective, you may wisely step up your half-hearted attendance to the planetary school of hard knocks, which provides you with ever-renewed opportunities to develop great strength of character. Avoidance is not on your side, whereas a diligent offensive on your part yields the cornucopia of the fruits of the spirit — the valuable offerings you will contribute to the festive table of humankind.
You are the first beneficiary of the progress you make toward emotional stability. Become an entry point for the quality of peace that passes all understanding and prevents all misunderstandings. Make generous allowances for your fellows who find themselves at different stages of emotional maturity. Turn challenging interactions into welcome catalysts for character growth. By thanking God for the good that will come out of them, you are coming from a place of gratitude, thus preventing an unfortunate shutdown of your heart that would ostracize you from the fellowship of the open hearts.”

Teacher: Thought Adjuster.
Subject: “Progress is Slow”
Message received by Oscar.
Thought Adjuster: “Revolutionary changes are seldom beneficial, for societies or for human beings. All the advances that civilization has gained have occurred through sustained effort and wisdom based on ample experience. This is how civilizations slowly move forward and also how individuals progress spiritually.
True and permanent changes must be born in the minds and the souls of human beings. Only when a person has felt the desire to be better and has explored within the connection with the Father, the transformation from a being of animal origin into a spiritual creature will begin. Only when you have tasted the sweetness of the fruits of the spirit in your experience will you have the necessary motivation for the supreme effort of submitting your material nature to make your mind an instrument of spirit.
But how many among you presently are still waiting for a special event that will magically raise you from your materialistic and confused state? In truth, I tell you that only through your efforts and the commitment of your will to find the will of the Father will you elevate your lives to the category of true children of God. For our Father in heaven, you are already His children, but this truth will not be perceived in your experience until you discover in you the same love that sustains creation and inspires the actions of all beings who know the Father.
Learn to appreciate the slow and certain changes your life provides. Learn to enjoy the apparently glacial rhythm of the upward and inward movement that brings you closer to God and to the likeness of the Father. Know that your minds and souls have limited capacity for spiritual reception and that a lot of truth coming at you suddenly may sink you into confusion and anarchy. Human parents know that the freedom they allow their children depends directly on their degree of maturity. Similarly, the Father knows that many of the ideas and beliefs that limit you now are just the necessary steps in the ladder of your evolution.
Progress is a slow process by design, because it must be in line with universal evolution – the will of the Father manifesting in His universes. Do not make the same mistake as Lucifer, who submerged the entire system in the deep waters of unrestricted freedom, while forgetting to teach his followers how to swim. When you seek advancement in your individual lives and your world, take one step at a time, so if the ground falls beneath your feet the fall will not be too high. Walk with certainty and faith, letting yourselves be guided by the voice of the Father that daily suggests the path to follow from within.”

Subject: “By Your Choices and Decisions”.
Message received by Lytske.
The Beloved: “The will and the way of God is nothing more or less than a way of love and service towards your fellow human beings. Even a genuine smile is of service as you pass by, since that soul may thereby be uplifted and encouraged.
True service does not ask for anything, nor does it expect anything for self. Life just flows naturally in a stream of abundance, because when you can enrich another’s soul with an encouraging smile, you too are enriched.
Spirit life is so rich compared to the materialistic life where it is ‘dog eat dog’ and people are stressed out because they do not take the time to be alone, to come into the Stillness of their heart. This is where I nurture them with elevating thoughts, so they are lifted above the humdrum and, at times, the sordidness of life.
Life becomes animalistic and without meaning, when the spiritual life is denied existence and unfoldment. Animals do not worship the Creator and Architect of everything. Only humans possess that priceless quality potential.
Elevate yourself above your baser tendencies and become a deep thinker who unravels the mysteries and purpose of your life so that your soul, which is your spiritual counterpart for eternal life, can grow and develop.
Give your soul a chance to grow into a balanced and harmonious treasure through love for your fellow human beings and unselfish service wherever you find yourself in life. Honor your spirit-soul, and in so doing you honor the Giver of all souls.
It is by your choices and decisions that this is accomplished. It is in the consistent seeking the will and the way of God, which is unconditional love and service, that grows and matures your soul. The spirit-life in each mortal is totally personal.
Seek and you shall find.”
