Teacher: Thought Adjuster.
Subject: “Spiritual Strength.”
Message received by Oscar.
Thought Adjuster: “Spiritual strength is the only transformative agent that can truly elevate human beings above their limitations. Spiritual strength can manifest itself through the creature's desire to be better each time, but only when this desire becomes a firm commitment, and the creature truly begins to love spiritual things does spiritual strength become present in this individual's experience.
When a soul filled with human weaknesses and character flaws begins to strive for improvement, it will undoubtedly face these weaknesses and flaws. Only spiritual strength can motivate the creature to start ascending the seemingly endless mountain of their human limitations. Those who seek to better themselves must rely on their human will, but those who have truly discovered the Father in their lives and through the love they have experienced sincerely desire to resemble Him, find that the obstacles that once seemed impossible to overcome have now lost much of their power.
Human will is fragile and subject to material nature. Spiritual will—inspired by the presence of God in man—is of eternal nature and can focus the powers of the mind and will to aspire to higher and more beautiful goals. A human being can only transcend their material origin by reaching out to spiritual levels. Those who struggle within the mud remain in the mud, but those who extend their hand to One offering help from beyond human confusion will discover how easy it is to leave the mud of their own shortcomings and stand on the shores of a new path leading to perfection.
The Master said that spiritual things are not loved after they are discovered; rather, one must love spiritual things first to be able to discover them. Love is a powerful motivator to attract the things that your soul truly needs to grow. As love becomes an expression of gratitude to the Father and supreme trust in His guidance, your attention will become increasingly attuned to discovering the spiritual treasures that the Father has placed within you. Only in this way can you become increasingly the best you can be, a being increasingly perfect, a more faithful reflection of the Creator of love, the Father of all personalities.”

Teacher: The Beloved.
Subject: “The Pieces of Our Puzzle.”
Message received by Lytske.
The Beloved: “Let us compare life to a giant jigsaw puzzle. This analogy is helpful for you to see the broad outlines of your eternal life. You know the beginning, your birth, mortal life, and the ending of that life, which is only the beginning of your eternal life, culminating in your eventual completion as a perfected being.
At that time, you will stand in the presence of the universal God of all creation, and hear these words: “Well done, My beloved child, I always knew that you could do it. I allowed you to slot the pieces of the puzzle of life into place, and now you can look back over the rich and beautiful life you have lived.”
This, My beloved, is what you and I have set out to do together. We are God and human, human and God. In God’s eyes exist no gender, so do not fret about being either male or female. Both are completely equal in His sight, for they are meant to be complements of each other and never should one lord it over the other.
This puzzle idea is a useful one because it spurs on the imagination. As in the weaving of the tapestry of life, you form the beginning strands here, although humans tend to look upon their mortal life here on earth as having a definite ending. The total opposite is true.
This life serves as the foundation for eternal life, unless you do not want to carry on, which, of course, is always the choice you can make. However, once you have made up your mind, totally and completely, and without a shadow of a doubt, we then decide together to become one.
Yes, we do this together as equal partners, and then there will be no turning back. As of yet, fusion is still a rarity on this planet, and practically all mortals enter the sleep of death with a belief and hope of life after death, but we are not dwelling on this now.
We are discussing how we will put the pieces of our puzzle together, while I give you My gifts as soon as you show a readiness for them. In this way, I can grow you more into My likeness while I become your personality and refine your character, as we, together, build an eternal reflection of the Creator God. Does this sound like a wonderful plan to you: an eternal plan towards perfection?
Ponder these words in your heart, and build on your connection with Me.”

Subject: “Under the Safelight of Spirit.”
Message received by Anyas.
“New meanings only emerge amid conflict; and conflict persists only in the face of refusal to espouse the higher values connoted in superior meanings.” [UB, 100:4.1]
Thought Adjuster: “Conflicts are symptomatic of misalignments. Depending on their intensity level, they can act as subtle or not-so-subtle revelators of facts if you make a worthwhile endeavor to get to their root cause.
In photography, a negative image is when the lightest areas of the photographed subject appear darkest, and the shaded appear most luminous. A darkroom outfitted with an enlarger, an easel, safelights, processing trays, and an appropriate chemical solution, is necessary to develop a positive.
This process can serve as a metaphor to understand how an abrasive, conflictual environment can trigger the emergence of new meanings. As you currently witness when listening to contradictory mediatic narratives, what one side views as snow-white, the other depicts as pitch-black. How is it even possible?
Only an authentic quest for superior meanings can unveil a color-correct tableau of the situation. Truth is impeccably factual and never relies on speculative guesswork. No difference of opinions should subsist once all relevant facts are thoroughly investigated, thus leaving no room for the hit-or-miss of subjective interpretations.
No matter how chaotic the entire cosmos may appear to be, it operates intelligently as an overall harmonious organism. The Chaos Theory is an interdisciplinary theory that states that — within the apparent randomness of complex, chaotic systems — there are underlying patterns, interconnectedness, constant feedback loops, repetition, self-similarity, fractals, and self-organization.
The all-sustaining creative Intelligence is neither moody nor chaotic. Nevertheless, painful labor pangs often precede the emergence of a new creature. Unpleasant conflicts can be the prelude to a positive outcome, provided that their negatives get developed into a positive and high-resolution picture under the safelight emitted by Spirit in the dark chamber of their native habitat.”

Teacher: Midwayer Andrea.
Subject: Second Most Satisfying Love.
Primary Midwayer Andrea: “Some ‘in-love’ people do not hesitate to say to each other: ‘You are the person I most love in the whole world, for you are my everything.’ ‘I love you with all my being.’ Have they forgotten the love we should vow to God, first and foremost? Some have, indeed; some do not count God as in the same category as humans, so when they voice these all-encompassing declarations, they are not thinking of God. However, they really should, because God should have our first and foremost love. Still, who causes our second most satisfying love? You know who, Jesus said: our fellow neighbors.
“Loving Your Neighbor is to Love People. It seems impossible to humans to love people in general, that is, to love all. You don’t need to know every person personally to love them. You just need to realize that independent of who they are or what they do (good or evil) they are just as human as you are. Love them because we are all sons and daughters of the same Universal Father. First, you pledge loving all, and in fact do, when any human being, whoever he or she might be, crosses your path, and you show your love right then and there.
“Loving Your Neighbor is to Love Someone. Loving all does not mean you are prohibited from loving someone. Rather, loving someone is just the reason why Jesus said to love your neighbor, putting proximity in the love equation. Love who is near you: your parents, your spouse, children, friends, co-workers, acquaintances. Love anybody with whom you establish any kind of relationship. Your love will be according to that type of relationship: parental, spousal, filial, friendship, cooperation or courtesy — infuse love in all and every relationship. Loving all is the range of your love, loving each one, the focus of your love.
“Loving Your Neighbor is to Love the Poor. Without favoring any ideology, let me define the poor as anybody who is in any kind of need, not necessarily the economically poor. There are indeed many kinds of poverty: material, intellectual, spiritual, just to mention a few. Your love for the poor must seek promotion of the wellbeing of those in need, not promotion of yourself. It should be respectful of other’s self-esteem, privacy, and not create dependency. You may love your family out of proximity ties, but there is nothing quite as satisfying as helping anybody regardless of whom they are.
“My friend, consider the dimensions of Love. Your love of God is spiritual, that is, worshipful, your love for yourself must be instrumental, kind, and modest, For others, love must be practical, selfless, and one of service. Love always must be selfless, unconditional and abundant. The second most satisfying love is the love for others. To God, it is your will-consecration; to you, will-moderation; to others your will-affection. It’s not enough to love God, we must share the love of God, loving others, specially the poor, the ones in need.
“I am Andrea, a Primary Midwayer, even descended to be your friend.”

Teacher: I AM.
Subject: “Framing the Divine Human Relationship.”
Message received by Chris Maurus.
I AM: “My Beloved Child, you have been asking Me for guidance on new ways in which you may more effectively attune with me — you are experimenting with different thought processes in which to ‘frame’ my relationship with you. This is a most favorable way to explore this uncharted territory, for many humans have difficulty even accepting that ‘the Kingdom of Heaven is within?’ You now know and understand this to some extent, yet you continue to push the boundaries of human understanding about the Divine Relationship. You have always had complete freedom to think about Me in any way that brings you in closer, and this is a metamorphosis of thought and understanding that shall continue to develop throughout your ascendant career until the moment of fusion brings us into eternal union.
“I AM your true soulmate and no other may claim this highest most intimate place within you. All other relationships are secondary, even those humans that you hold in the closest ‘orbits’ to your heart. How then would you imagine a relationship with a soulmate? Would there be total trust, openness, and non-judgment? Would there be unconditional love? Would there be intimate affection? Would you share your most intimate thoughts; greatest interests, and deepest desires? Can you bring your mind to think of Me this way?
“Many cannot imagine having such an intimate relationship as this with ‘God’ because of the deeply rooted ideas in theology and in popular culture that override this idea of God as a soulmate and put ‘Him’ afar off in some lofty place — separated from you. This is the work I ask of you — to stretch your mind and understanding and look beyond these preconceived ideas you have about how a divine relationship should be framed in the human mind?
“The highest ideals of human love between two compliments of being in the flesh is to come together in sexual union and express your understanding of love as a reflection of the divine within you — the complete surrender of self to the other. Should a Divine Relationship be any less than this most intimate blissful union? But how can this be when I AM not in physical form and not thought of as a lover — a compliment of being?
“You and I are always in a blissful non-fused union, only you don’t perceive it that way now. It is your task to understand this blissfulness and to bring Me into this intimate embrace within your mind. When you are expressing your highest understanding of love with another, it is this blissful union I share with you that is reflected onto the person of your affections. Try to understand this, my Beloved, and do not hold back on your expression when in the arms of a lover — for it is I that moves through you and vibrates this blissful state of divine love that you then transmute into the emotions that you choose to express and surrender to the other. Can you now see how we are in union when you express my love for you and extend it to others? This happens at all levels of human relationships and in varying degrees of ‘wholeness.’
“Think about these things, my Beloved, and please experiment with your ideas for the ‘framing’ of our Divine-Human relationship.
