You Are Up To The Task. |
Tallahassee, Florida, US of A, February 22, 1996. Unknown Teacher. Received by JoiLin. Teacher: If you are ready, child, let us begin. Life, when it is well lived on a physical sphere such as Urantia, is never easy. It is only easy when work is not being done. It is only easy when the eye is upon the short-term goal rather than the long-term goal. You, who have made your commitment to this teaching mission, and the job we are about, will not experience many seasons of tranquility, but rather will most of your time be spent in turmoil, which is better said as experiencing intense periods of growth. You have already been well schooled in the understanding of just what growth entails. It is never easy, and it is cause for much emotional and mental struggle. However, we, who teach you, know full well that you are up to the task. Do not allow yourselves to become disheartened when your struggles seem to be an entirely uphill battle from which there is no respite, but rest assured that although such may be your perception, it is not necessarily what is going on from a higher perspective. We can see, much more easily than do you, the growth steps that are being facilitated by and through your struggles. These periods of increased learning are a necessary part of your training, so keep your eye on the goal, and your feet upon the path. Light and Life dear students, is the goal, Father attunement is the path. We relish our association with you, and we look forward to each and every occasion we have of interacting within the fabric of your lives, for indeed, do we consider our association with you an honor and a joy. Remember your training when experiencing severe periods of doubt, or during those times when you feel as if you might be in danger of losing some of your hard-won ground. Remember, dear students, the Father is with you always, and Michael walks at your side. Your Creative Mother Spirit is here, and accessible to you, as well. You have numerous loving helpers, whose main focus in life is in helping you to help yourself, and your world. Utilize this help, dear ones, knowing that as you grow strong, as you open yourselves more fully to the Father, and to His direction, not only are you helping to strengthen your own inner resolve, but you light the way for others to follow you, and through this learn-and-teach pattern is your world brought more fully into the days of Light and Life. You understood when you first began to walk this path that it would not be easy. You have since discovered first hand that we were not speaking lightly when we spoke of the trials that this path would engender within your own lives. I leave you now with my love and blessing, certain that you are up to the task, confident that this mission and the goal will prevail. For through you, and others like you, it will be accomplished. © 11:11 Progress Group. |
