<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 16pt">I
am ABRAHAM. Greetings. I am enjoying your good-natured attitudes this evening.
While this night has been known for its superstition, your humor has brought it
to a level of common sense. We can see down through the centuries how many
superstitions were allowed to fade away, while the truth of everyday living was
more fully embraced. It takes life to gain spiritual benefits, as well as
evolutionary ones. Lessons learned from one generation are passed down to the
next and while erroneous thinking may filter through, personal experience for
the most part builds a springboard to a better age.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 16pt">This evening you bid farewell to an old friend. I am in
appreciation of your introspective ideas. You are not burdened by old
traditional beliefs, but are embracing what you have learned so far with even
greater possibilities. Pain in the mortal life can be overwhelming and Father
has given you one another to bring balance to living. As this Teaching Mission
progresses we will see weak points here and there in the overall structure. It
is our fellowship however that is our true strength.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 16pt">It
is difficult in the everyday world to be your true self with what seems to be
character flaws that no one else has or can understand. Gratitude to Father for
giving us one another here in these small groups, for we can set aside judgment
in favor of brotherhood. It is common knowledge that you each would help one
another and even bend over backwards if need be. This is crucial to learn in our
</SPAN><st1:place><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 16pt">Mission</SPAN></st1:place><SPAN

Life.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

am MARY. I am grateful to be among you, to see the best in you, to see your true
character, your humor, your various perspectives. I do love learning about you.
Along the lines of Abraham’s discussion, I for </SPAN><st1:time Hour="1"

style="FONT-SIZE: 16pt"> grateful to those I worked side by side with while
dwelling in the mortal body. Those who knew and loved me then, always did what
they could to help me become better. They wanted for my happiness and success,
as I also wanted for theirs.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 16pt">Those who judged me, made me feel small and useless, I
thank God for the Master’s ministry, for He made me realize my true worth as a
child of God and as a cosmic citizen. Knowing Jesus, learning from Him,
experiencing the ministry, made me lean more toward self-mastery. I felt not as
an imbalanced, struggling mortal, but a learning child, who was indeed advancing
slowly, but still advancing.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

style="FONT-SIZE: 16pt">Many experiences in life appear to be barriers to what
you feel your goals are. I can say now that these barriers are most definitely
our key to spiritual advancement. It is those things you can’t really touch, see
or feel that will be most perplexing and yet, always exercising our mind to
advance or to become more, yes, to evolve. This

style="FONT-SIZE: 16pt">Life is really not so much about winning the race as it
is learning how to carry on in the face of any obstacle. Know that we are very
appreciative of your efforts to carry on with blind faith. Myself and Abraham do
know the struggles of mortal life. Know that we both believe you are doing well
in helping us to progress in the Master’s cause.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

meantime have not worry. Make effort to see those individuals you come across as
you see one another here. After all, we are riding out the stormy seas together.
Know that Michael’s banner is set high in a cloudless sky. From Abraham and
myself, we bid you farewell and
shalom.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P></DIV></BODY></HTML>
