am with anticipation in meeting with you each week, for your life discoveries
are also insightful for me. I am with a pondering mind this evening. I enjoy
taking time to think, to learn, to be receptive.<o:p></o:p></FONT></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 14pt"><FONT face="Times New Roman">There are specific areas of
the brain that are designed to be like an antenna, so to speak. The more fit you
are in body and mind—the more receptive you become. Busyness in everyday living
does bog down the mind with trivialities. Quiet moments every day help to clear
a way for reception from those On High.<o:p></o:p></FONT></SPAN></P>

style="FONT-SIZE: 14pt"><FONT face="Times New Roman">Anxiety from daily living
takes its toll on body and mind. Many mortals choose to deal with this by not
dealing with it at all. Some can color over an ugly picture and really believe
it is beautiful. This is damaging to the psyche and stifling growth. We find
that those who dare to communicate their thoughts honestly have improved health
in body and mind.<o:p></o:p></FONT></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 14pt"><FONT face="Times New Roman">When we visit back into the
life of Judas we can see how he harbored many negative thoughts. Had he
communicated honestly with his brethren and the Master he might have been opened
to new possibilities. Most of the apostles had their set hopes and beliefs, but
through the love for their Master they were opened to His thoughts, His words
and His deeds.<o:p></o:p></FONT></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 14pt"><FONT face="Times New Roman">It is true that most people
would appreciate knowing the truth of your thoughts. There are ways to speak
your truth so as not to invoke negativity or perhaps offense. First of all when
dealing with your fellows you remember the fact that you are all a part of the
same family, not one is more important than another. Take a moment to look
within your heart and mind. Most likely they will say different
things.<o:p></o:p></FONT></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 14pt"><FONT face="Times New Roman">When pondering some
circumstance, you can view it with your emotions, but balance it with your
intellect. To take a moment before you speak integrates the heart and mind to
find a manner in which to speak forth your truth as accurately as possible. Many
times your words will have no affect on another, but at the very least you have
released your thoughts that can begin planting seeds. You are not pent up with
emotion or that barrage of thoughts of ‘I should
have.’<o:p></o:p></FONT></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 14pt"><FONT face="Times New Roman">Much of mortal anxiety
comes from the feelings of being misunderstood and feeling separate. To speak
with honesty is to allow others to know who you truly are, and the Master always
said, “The more you understand your fellows, the more you love
them.”<o:p></o:p></FONT></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 14pt"><FONT face="Times New Roman">If we are to face reality
we each can envision this world with its underlying river of negativity. Those
who are participating in the Correcting Time are not adding to this river but
beginning a stream of their own that is flowing with truth, beauty and goodness.
To withhold thoughts or words that would help bring healing if spoken is in
itself somewhat of a lie. It is damaging to you and those you interact with.
Speaking the truth need not come from a place of ego, no, it should be
intelligent and with love. When you are honest with others they have trust in
you. They will surely seek you out.<o:p></o:p></FONT></SPAN></P>

style="FONT-SIZE: 14pt"><FONT face="Times New Roman">If we could take a moment
to look at the life of Peter--he was certainly an enthusiastic character, and
yet he was somewhat of a people pleaser. He was an eloquent speaker and this was
certainly part of his charm. While he had the best of intentions, his hurried
actions usually brought him added difficulties. As he aged he was maturing in
spirit and became less rash with actions and more thoughtful with his words.
Always was his saving grace—his love for the Master. Many times he was foolish,
and yet his willingness to be open brought him
transformation.<o:p></o:p></FONT></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 14pt"><FONT face="Times New Roman">This week think about those
thoughts that should be brought into reality through your vocabulary. How much
is pent up and damaging to you in body and mind? How open are you to receiving
others truth? Study on the Master’s technique of honesty. Many times His sayings
were apparently harsh, and yet it was the only way in which He could get His
message across.<o:p></o:p></FONT></SPAN></P>
