Letter 21 -- Discipleship Thursday, Dec. 9, 1976–2:25 p.m.. To Our Dear Blessing Spirits Let Us move on with the discussion of discipleship. The number of times We cannot count when We have tried to reach some of you to ask for a favor done. And you turn Us away because there is a certainty in your mind you are not worthy and therefore you do not have the ears to hear. As
you put Us on a pedestal so you then produce a gap between Us. As you understand more of what We say, you’ll know that
the “pedestal” way of thinking literally pushes Us aside. And what
ensues is a break in communication. For as We speak and whisper in your
ears–your mind then says, “Oh, I can’t be receiving guidance from
Them–They are too high-I am not good enough.” Certainly you have
learned from Us by now that we abhor it when people literally
stop their growth by believing they are too lowly. This is, as mentioned
before, false humility and We ask that you do the best you can to see it
holds no place in your mind and Heart. What We ask is simply this:
be open, remain open to Us as you are to the whispering wind, the
song of the birds and the voice of your loved ones. Are We not as
meaningful in your life as all those things that are dear to you? If so,
then treat Us as such and bend your ear daily to hear Us speak. For We
have many things to say to you. Words that will comfort, encourage and
yes challenge you as your life daily moves forward into loving service
and growth. There are many truths to reveal to the Heart that remains
unblocked and open for this is the Age when such is the usual and
natural occurrence. For gone will be the days when happenings of the
heavenworld are rare, and talk of the supernatural will be a forgotten
language. Know that as this quarter of the century advances, there will
be outpourings of power and the ability to use that power for many people. Thus the reason for our pursuit of those who will use it for the higher
good and will of Our Lord. All of the previous Letters are a preparation
of what We speak of here. The
disciple of today is far different than the disciple of yesterday and as
his advancement is rapid his need for direction is equally increased.
Therefore the message of this Letter is plainly simple, and We
reiterate: Do not create a
wall that says “Keep out” because of erroneous attitudes for then We
are of no service to each other and much is lost as “life moves
wastefully on” for you. Do
not be afraid for fear is created by the mind that worries if it will be
asked to do that which it desires not. And precious is the person and a
jewel unto Us who willingly serves and carries with him a Heart that
receives its duties well. This is the humility of a true disciple. |
