A Teacher named: The Beloved One.
Received by Lytske.
The Beloved One: “Today we will discus the meaning of the
subject of Will. Many of your siblings entertain pre-conceived notions
and opinions as to what Will represents. Is it to want something, to
will something and make this happen, to bend others to their will, and
so forth? However, the most important one -- to learn to do the Will
of God -- is often the most puzzling and confusing to them, and yet
it is the simplest of all. The true spiritual meaning of doing God’s
Will is to allow things to happen. It is to allow your inner Voice to
lead you, rather than to let your baser animal instincts to guide you.
“In the beginning, and it may simply be with the urge to make sense
out of life, you start out on your spiritual path of seeking that indefinable
‘something’. The start of this might be triggered at any age
during mortal life, but ideally this happens when a child reaches the
age of ‘discernment’, and makes a conscious choice between
right and wrong. At that very moment the Inner Pilot comes to indwell
that child, and from then on it often makes, ‘unconsciously’
at first, the choice to be lead by this Indweller. Slowly, true soul-hunger
develops.
“During the formative years, much depends on the outer circumstances
of how willingness to be led develops. At times, this is very gradual,
but sometimes they forget and mortals have to be ‘brought to their
knees’, so to speak, and made to realize that there is more to
life than just meaningless enjoyment. It is very much a matter of where
the conscious, or unconscious attention is placed, which then determines
the plane on which the person lives.
“So if he or she lives on the surface of life, then everything
is superficial and mundane, but when one begins to think a bit more
independently, and begins to question the true purpose of life, and
starts seeking for the deeper meanings and values, and develops a hunger
to ‘look behind the veil’ into eternity, then the true soul
begins to grow, and seeks to be fed and nurtured. He or she will feel
a need to belong somewhere.
“This urge and search to belong, does not stop until is found the
Eternal God. Until realization dawns that, in all actuality, he or she
has always belonged to God, because he or she simply cannot exist without
God, for everything is inclusive in God. God has given mortals the Gift
of free will. It is up to each mortal to choose to do the Will of God,
and live in that consciousness of mind to figure out what all this means,
and then start acting on the leadings and the prompts of the God-Fragment
within them.
“Ponder what ‘doing the Will of God’ means to you.”
