about your happiest celebratory moment here in the mortal life and know that
that feeling is every day here beyond the veil. We find our happiest times when
we take moments for worship of the First Source and Center. Although we are

healing—mentally and emotionally and with you mortals, also physically.

what you can and move on and put your energies into something that you can make
better. You can improve the future or even the present with a good connection
with God. </FONT></SPAN></P>

the religions today keep God and Christ as having given up everything for you so
that you will give all to them. Christ’s mission on Earth never asked that of
His friends. Rather, He showed by example how familiar He was with Father, how
He could talk to Father like a friend. </FONT></SPAN></P>

felt myself, in talking with the Master that He was also like talking to a
friend. Never did I know of His divinity. As a mortal, never did I know what
order of Sons He belonged to or had any universe knowledge whatsoever. All I
knew is that Christ was my friend, my counselor, my example of how to live life,
giving energy into things that really matter and with that, I give you my
friend.</FONT></SPAN></P>

have plenty of time—one on one—but being together brings back memory of my
resurrection days. The joy and light on the faces of my fellows brought me a

that know you shall also be inspired to think of me and Father as their closest
allies. A real family, one who does not desert in times of stress or spirit

I would like to tell you that I am deeply touched by your faith and perseverance
to continue on in this Mission. Our tasks are not hard. Our assignments should
generate energy and joy. In ministering to individuals you should feel an
abundance of energy and drive. Anytime you are feeling empty or put upon, then
perhaps that is not the task for you. If you keep good prayer and meditation you
should easily know the difference and find that direction from myself, Mother or
our First Source and Center – easy to understand. </FONT></SPAN></P>
