T/R: Gerdean, for TEACHER TOMAS

 

      The Effectiveness of Prayer in Helping Bring That About.

TOMAS: This is your faithful friend, Tomas, glad to be with you once more in this familiar format in service to the King and the Kingdom, of which we are a vital part. Indeed, the realm is radiant with joy this evening as many commemorate this Day of Prayer, and I too will take the opportunity to lift my voice in praise and thanksgiving to the Universal Father of all for the mystery of his many blessings.

How our lives are touched by this thing that we know of as God. Even aside from the personal relationship we enjoy with him as Father, it is humbling to be in the presence of such energy and power as are expressed from the Central Isle of Paradise where God lives. And the universe is filled with those happy and joyous helpers who, like us, rejoice to know Him and share our joy with others "as we pass by."

There are those also who keep questions in a jar to pull out when the occasion presents itself, without having to worry about formulating the question but merely setting it forth. And there are those who have no idea what their question is but their soul yearns to express it, and so they talk, and somewhere in there the question of their soul is revealed. It is the soul that I have come to teach. It is your soul that I am commissioned to reach, so that you can get to know it better and help it help you on the way toward becoming all that you can be, all that you are. And thus I open the door for your questions and for your presence.

Simon: Tomas, this is Simon in Salt Lake.

Simon: Tomas, this is Simon in Salt Lake.

TOMAS: Yes?

TOMAS: Yes?

Marty: That's what I would expect. I can't imagine even two people who are mortals having the same prayer, but joining our energies together is what I'm speaking of and I think that being a part of the Teaching Mission and becoming familiar with our celestial cosmic family makes it such a different relationship than it would be without that. Just to have the family praying together is just phenomenal.

TOMAS: Indeed, and remarkable. I am going to close this session. It has been far more replete than you realize. We have planted many seeds, not the least of which is the importance of group synergy and the effectiveness of prayer in helping bring that about. I thus leave you with my best affections and look forward to our next time together. Go about your lives being happy and doing good. Until we meet again, farewell. [Thank you]
