Teacher: The Beloved One.
Subject: “A Lesson on Security.”
Received by Lytske.
The Beloved One: “A sense of insecurity pervades the planet, which makes it important and timely to speak about the security that can only be found within the steady center of your spirit. It is necessary for humanity to realize that despite all this restlessness and the upheaval around you, there is Spirit within you, Who can steady you. Most times it is a life-long journey. Some mortals find this inner peace and the security it brings fairly early in life, but it usually does not come until after much searching and living a life filled with trial and error. There are some, who pass from this life, never having found what they were looking for. And then there are those who do not at all believe in an eternal life. To all I advise to never lose hope, for the Father is not done with you yet.
“However, even when you remain in doubt about your eternal existence and the continuity of life, consider the trees, how they always make ready for their long winter sleep by shedding their leaves and when spring time comes the life-sap once again starts stirring within. Tiny buds begin to swell, and in time blossoms and leaves begin to form culminating in the fruit they were programmed to bear, each to their own type. Do they worry about these things? They just are and do what is innate in them. So it is with mortals, also having within them a God-given blueprint. Still, they are often so busy with things that have no importance for eternal life. Humans have been given the faculty to think for themselves, but many behave as if they are robots and continue to be ‘spoon-fed’, rather than taking the more difficult job and ‘chew’ for themselves. They offer the excuse that things have always been done that way, so why should they have to change and thereby upset the apple cart.
“Thinking along these lines will not give you your personal peace of mind and inner security, because sooner or later, you will be confronted with the question, ‘How steady and strong is your faith?’ If you have not thoughtfully done anything about it, ought it be time to start now? There is always the eternal ‘now’ moment, in which everything can change in a split second. Allow yourself one of these eternal ‘now’ moments, to realize what it is your soul hungers for and seeks to find. You will be doing yourself the greatest of favors to reflect on this very important matter. And let Me assure you, that sooner or later, these questions will come up in every normal minded and thinking person. This is the deepest question you can ask of yourself.
“‘Who am I, what am I supposed to be doing here and where am I going?’ Reflect upon these questions and see, if there is a certain restlessness in you that clamors to be satisfied. You may be sure that your soul demands its peace and security, which it can only develop if you will it so. There is an eternity of co-operation waiting for you, here and in the celestial world, but you are the one who needs to be willing to look for this. It is never too late to start searching the motivations of your heart. Is it just? Is it about love? Is it open to the idea of tolerance towards all others you come in contact with? Remember, your tiny blue orb in space depends very much on mutual co-operation. See to it that not one lords it over another, for they shall not be held innocent and guiltless, who perpetrate atrocities in one form or other upon the innocents of this planet. Search your own heart and feel the eternal security stirring within you. Be and live in My security and love.”
