Thank you for all of the blessings <br>that you have bestowed on each one of us. Help <br>us to be good stewards of those blessings. We <br>pray for our country and the world. We pray for <br>peace. We pray for a statesman to come forth to <br>lead our nation into a better direction. We pray <br>for light and life and the coming of <br>Monjoronson. We love you God. In Christ Michael’s name, Amen.<br><br>JarEl: TR, George: Good evening. It is I, your teacher
JarEl.<br><br>Lucille: Welcome<br><br>JarEl: TR, George: It is good to be back again <br>and I would like to welcome those who have not been here for a while.<br><br>If you recall, last time we met, I urged you to <br>keep away from fear; fear that brings you down, <br>fear that makes you panic, fear that creates the <br>possibility of you making rash decisions. There <br>is another line of support to all the peoples of <br>the world, to all the peoples of the universe, <br>and that support is God. He binds us, He keeps <br>us together and He helps us communicate with one <br>another. And so, He is that support that you all <br>have, that you all share. Regardless of what may <br>happen on this planet, that connection is <br>constant and consistent. It shall be with you <br>forever, even to the days when you have united <br>with Him when you have fused and you are one with <br>God. This connection
shall never fail you. So <br>as things crash around you, as the world falls <br>apart, our God is with us. Our God comforts us <br>and our God loves us. He will not lead you <br>astray. He will not let you be lost. If you <br>seek Him, you shall find Him. If you call out to <br>Him he shall hear you even before you make that <br>decision to call Him. He knows your intention, <br>He knows your will and He knows what you want and <br>what you need and He provides accordingly.<br><br>God is more than just a support. He is the core <br>from which all of your energy comes. He is that <br>essential wellspring that gives you life, that <br>drives you forward and that one day will help you <br>achieve your potential. He is also the person <br>who gives you meaning in your life. Yes, you may <br>find meaning independently, but ultimately it is <br>connected with the True Source and Center. And
<br>this connection, these various connections, are <br>reserved for some future revelation to yourself; <br>not everything is revealed at this moment, not <br>every meaning is explained. But as you travel <br>forward, as you travel inward, you will discover <br>all the connections that you have with God.<br><br> It is very important at this time in your lives <br>to look inward and discover that solid footing <br>that is God. He is the anchor from which you set <br>forward when you sail onto the high seas of <br>uncertainty. And He is that shore that you one <br>day will reach once you have traveled and have <br>made various adventures. God is that certainty <br>that awaits you at the end of your long day. He <br>is the measure of assurance that all your lifes’ <br>work has meaning and worth. He is the prize that <br>you will receive at the end of your long, long struggle.<br><br> So, given the
relativity of this grand career <br>that awaits you, what happens here and now on <br>this planet will be of little significance. You <br>will be well taken care of. God will not give <br>you more than you can handle. The challenges <br>that await you after this planet will be far <br>greater than what you are being challenged with <br>right now. So do not fret over the situations <br>that you all currently find yourselves in, for <br>all this will pass. And when your lives take you <br>into the new realms of Morontia, you will face <br>new challenges that some of you may find <br>unbearable, but yet that will pass as well and <br>you will transcend that existence and raise <br>yourself up to a new level of understanding and <br>spirituality. And all of these challenges are <br>meant to make you a better person, a better soul <br>and a better spiritual being.<br><br>You shouldn’t be afraid of challenges. Life
will <br>give you many challenges. A brave soul faces <br>these challenges even if he or she is uncertain <br>of what the outcome may be. Those that are brave <br>go forward anyway. Do not let fear dominate your <br>life. Do not let fear creep into your <br>decision-making. Fear only stifles you, slows <br>you down. Fear only postpones what will be one <br>day inevitable. Fear only retards your <br>understanding of how things should be. Let go of <br>these fears and embrace each challenge that faces <br>you. Look at it in an honest fashion and solve <br>your life’s problems through calm <br>decision-making. If you use this pattern you <br>will have no problem facing your later challenges <br>that you will face when you pass the veil of death.<br><br>There is so much that awaits you, but before you <br>can reach those places, you must pass <br>challenges. You must raise the bar to your
own <br>understanding; you must challenge yourself; you <br>must urge yourself to be a better person, a <br>better human being. You must find that inner <br>voice that is inside you that speaks to you, and <br>you must commune with it. And all of these are <br>challenges that can be overcome, but it takes <br>work, it takes perseverance and it takes <br>faith. You are all very capable of doing <br>this. For there is nothing more special about <br>some of you than there is of others; you are all <br>equal in God’s eyes and He loves you all just the <br>same. So you are all capable of reaching Him in <br>various fashions and in various ways, but equal, nonetheless.<br><br>Are there any questions here tonight?<br><br>Lucille: I thought when we got nearer to God it would be easier?<br><br>JarEl: TR, George: That is not true.<br><br>Lucille: That’s what I’m hearing.<br><br>JarEl: TR,
George. It is far more complex and <br>difficult, but you will be up to the <br>challenge. But it is challenging, <br>nonetheless. The closer you get to God the more <br>complex things get, but it is up to you to <br>understand all the complexities. But at the same <br>time, the closer you get, the harder it is for <br>you to understand the simplest of concepts, for <br>the complexities have taken over and made it very <br>difficult for you to break things down to their <br>most basic and elemental shapes. Even if you <br>were to be face to face with God at this moment, <br>you would not be able to pass the ultimate test, <br>despite its simplicity, simply because you are <br>not ready to understand the question. The last <br>question that is asked of you will be simple, <br>comparatively, but will be very difficult to <br>answer. In its simplicity is inherent the <br>complexities that exist in all the
<br>universe. Your long travels and your long <br>experiences will equip you sufficiently to answer <br>such questions, but at the same time, they may <br>hinder and handicap you from seeing the truth in its simplest shape.<br><br>Are there any more questions?<br><br>Joe: I had a small little speech I concisely put together, if I may?<br><br>JarEl: You may.<br><br>Joe: Thank you. I think we should value <br>immensely, God’s gift of freewill to us, our <br>ability to learn through “experience” that which <br>we associate as “good” and that which we <br>associate as “bad.” The fact we were not created <br>in someone’s ideal and allowed to figure out what <br>is ideal for ourselves should mean a lot to us. <br>It is through experience that we are able to <br>improve and develop our personality, which has <br>eternal value, and once perfected, is changeless in the face of change.<br><br>As our personalities grow
and develop, we can <br>better distinguish between the ideals of <br>personality growth and the circumstantial wisdom <br>those ideals can apply to. It is through my own <br>growth in circumstantial wisdom that I speak to <br>you today to make my declaration of intent to <br>assist the Magisterial Mission’s efforts.<br><br>I would like to share with you (briefly) why I <br>have made this decision as I think what I say is to everyone’s benefit:<br><br>Many of my interactions with other people and <br>“so-called entities” would have you and I believe <br>the adjuster is not God. Well, I do not care if <br>my adjuster is Santa Claus or <span class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1223758760_3">Peter Pan</span>, the fact <br>of the matter is, if it were not for its guidance <br>or loving support, I would not be here today. I <br>had a rough journey and it saw me through thick <br>and thin. It has emboldened my <span style="border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(0, 102,
204); cursor: pointer;" class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1223758760_4">faith in God</span> and <br>given me an inner strength which is priceless. It <br>is truly the best friend I ever had. I have yet <br>to find fault in its guidance. It has helped me <br>and I intend to help it work through me during my <br>anticipated tenure and promote its ministry. It <br>was the adjuster’s love and imparting wisdom that <br>triumphed in my intention to stay.<br><br>Additionally, I think I speak for all of us when <br>I say we are naturally saddened to see this <br>planet so tarnished. To hear of people sleeping <br>in trash, children being sold so a family can <br>support themselves, people starving, people dying <br>of treatable diseases, people suffering with the <br>inequity of poor environmental and hereditary <br>inheritances; this is not right. I do not think <br>we can coexist without the <span class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1223758760_5">Fatherhood of God</span> and
<br><span style="border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(0, 102, 204); cursor: pointer;" class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1223758760_6">Brotherhood of Man</span>. I hope by us working <br>together, we can further promote these ideas.<br><br>The unique experiences we have had here will <br>allow us to contribute new meanings and values to <br>the universe. I know as we move forward we will <br>project this attitude in much of what we do. I <br>want to close by thanking everyone here for the <br>continuing love and support you have provided to <br>me and others. I would also like to thank JarEl <br>for his wisdom, encouragement, and the faith he has in all of us.<br>That is all.<br><br>Donna: Thank you<br><br>Joe: You are very welcome.<br><br>JarEl: Thank you for sharing.<br><br>Joe: And I have to thank you for your previous <br>advice. I think it helped me refine my speech <br>from what would normally be just a bunch of <br>rambling and
blathering to an unintended audience <br>to something that is concise and <br>meaningful. What would have normally been five <br>pages was concisely put together in one. I think <br>that what you imparted to me during one of the <br>Teaching Mission sessions where I did give a speech<br>was helpful, so I appreciate that very much.<br><br>JarEl: You are very welcome and I appreciate <br>your sharing your insights with this group. I do <br>believe that every single one of you will refine <br>the way you relate to the world and the way you <br>communicate. At one point in your career you <br>will be able to relate to others in one or two <br>sentences and that will be suffice to convey all <br>the understanding and all the emotion and all the <br>information that you want to impart. However, I <br>do appreciate your efforts to improve yourself. And with that I leave you.<br>Goodnight.<br><br>All: Goodnight
JarEl and thank you. <br></div></td></tr></table>
