Changes

My [[friends]], as you [[develop]] a more open [[channel]] to [[the Father]] the [[path]] you walk becomes more full and resolute in the [[actions]] that are more Christlike. As I have been putting forth to you over the many months, in order for that [[path]] to be firm one must take the time to sit with [[the Father]]. How else can you know Him? How else can you [[understand]] His will? How else can you know proper [[action]] to take and proper [[course]] to chart for yourself if you do not know [[the Father]]? Time and again the course for you to set will always rest upon that important time you spend with Him.

[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=1993-01-10-What_Is_Spiritual_Strength Last week we worked on spiritual strength]. You were asked to give your [[understanding]] of this [[concept]] which you did [[beautifully]]. This week we will take time for some [[words]] regarding [[freedom]]. The freedom that I will speak of tonight means freedom for yourself, freedom which you cannot [[experience]] or know if you harbor certain [[characteristics]]. These characteristics are ones that you would deem on a [[negative]] side. I will ask you what characteristics you [[feel]] would hamper your [[freedom]]. And conversely, then, the [[opposite]] would give you [[liberty]] and [[freedom]]. Let us leave the recorder on and please put forth some [[thoughts]] you have in this regard. How can I best know [[freedom]] for myself in a [[spiritual]] [[light]], in a human light? For this is your wholeness that we are speaking of. Please [[volunteer]]."

B6: "I think [[Jesus]] said in [[response]] to one of the questions in His papers that we are most [[limited]] by [[pride]] and [[fear]]."

When the [[winds]] of discontent have you in their [[embrace]], utilize the keys given to you, that you, through your will, may be able to take up and reach to [[the Father]] as He reaches back to you. This world is in a [[state]] of much [[confusion]]. There is much [[personal]] [[oppression]] as well as oppression inflicted on others, by those who hold or seem to [[think]] they hold more [[power]]. [[Freedom]] can be felt even by those who are in oppressive situations on a [[personal]] level if they [[understand]] their [[spiritual]] [[self]]. For whatever happens in the outer will make no [[difference]] if the spiritual is whole. That is why weekly I have asked you to build that [[inner life]], to make it [[strong]], to allow [[freedom]] to be the [[resting]] pad for you to build your life upon. Yes, when you can [[love]] yourself; when you can let go of [[fear]], when you can [[trust]]; when [[anger]], resentment, [[guilt]], denial and the desire to [[control]] are not the framework from which you work, then [[freedom]] will be yours. Real freedom does not mean holding [[power]] over another. Real freedom means the [[ability]] to allow your spirit to [[embrace]] [[the Father]], allow yourselves [[time]] with the Father so that the [[Indwelling Spirit]], the Gift from Him, can [[support]] you in your life.

Think this week upon [[freedom]]. Begin again to work to allow yourselves to be [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_Spirits free spirits]. Whenever a situation pulls you down, you will stay down with it if your [[harbor]] any kind of [[anger]], [[doubts]], or [[fear]]. That is your [[choice]]. If you release it, you will be [[free]].

My students, you are doing well in this type of format. The [[format]] that we have had prior to the [[meetings]] where you [[share]] has been one that has helped you to [[grow]] in so many ways and is very important to continue as well. I will now [[accept]] questions."

Daniel: "Very well stated. Indeed, as you [[grow]] there are many levels of [[freedom]] which you [[attain]]. And many of you realize that true freedom is your [[desire]] to do that which brings you [[pleasure]]. And when the pleasure is [[doing the Father's will]], you are truly experiencing [[liberty]]."

V1: "Daniel, I have one other [[question]]. I can't help but think about the [http://www.globalcommunity.org/ Foundation for Global Community]. It is really a very [[secular]] group but we are having a workshop and the thrust of that workshop is '[[personal]] [[change]]'. It's going to reach a lot of people across the country, but again, it is on a [[secular]] level. I can't help but think that that is part of the [[Teaching Mission]], too, as far as changing [[this planet]] is concerned. Would you [[care]] to comment on that?"

Daniel: "The [[individual]]'s [[personal]] [[growth]], personal awareness, and personal change are important for there to be any kind of [[change]] within the whole global [[community]]. [[Organizations]] such as this are, in [[fact]], working to bring about those [[changes]] within the individual that are [[positive]], that help the individual to come into more awareness. There are [[choices]] that you as an [[ascending mortal]] are able to make. The first is that of your own free will [[choice]]. The second is that of the choice you make for [[society]]. And the third is the choice you make for following [[the Father]]'s will. All three are important aspects of [[choice]], of your [[growing]] and [[ascension]]. You must be able to do work in all of these areas in order to be [[whole]]. And so work on [[personal]] change will bring about global change. And whenever you work to help another, you are in the [[service]] of [[the Father]]. It is gratifying on our part to see that there is growing [[consciousness]] in regard to personal and global [[change]] which will quicken the [[spiritual growth]] as well. Does this help?"
