Iruka: The love of God surrounds you, the light of God enfolds you, the power of God protects you, wherever you are He is. Good afternoon, I am Iruka, I am your friend and guide.

I am delighted to be back with you after all these weeks. I have missed you, I have missed these sessions where we can freely discuss, have questions, and grow. I have, however, visited you occasionally during the weeks and I have been aware of your growth. You have taken large steps. You are growing closer to the Father every day. It is true that you have problems, but you seem to be handling them better. You are approaching them with love, you are approaching them with confidence. You are aware that the Father is trying to teach you. You know you cannot grow without pain or problems. Having an easy life would not cause you to desire the Father, and so problems are put in your pathway. It is very mature to approach the problem with the question, what can I learn, what does the Father wish to teach me? And embrace the problem with love, knowing that when it is through, you will have grown from it. Then you may get the same problem again, and attack it differently. This time growing in another way.

===Lesson===
 
Have you come to the realization that your whole life will be a series of problems and growths. You will not be allowed to just sit back and have it easy. I do not wish to discourage you but this is the way it will be for all of eternity. The more you realize that your loving Father wishes you to grow towards Him, the easier these problems will be and the faster you will progress through them. Being conscious is one thing that I have talked to you a lot about, so if you are conscious about the problem, you will find a solution much faster. I know that everyone of you is in your own set of problems. Look at the problem, try to decide what Father wants to teach you and move forward. Learn it, develop the skill He wants you to, and if you feel you have not done well, don't feel like you have failed. Know that you have learned something and that you will get another chance, and you will do better. Think of the small child, the baby learning to walk. The first step or two, he falls, he gets up and he takes maybe three steps, and he falls, and he gets up and maybe takes four or five steps. That is the way it is with our lessons. We get better and better and better. Do not be worried about the falls, they are discouraging. Don't think of yourself as a failure, just think I will do better next time. And now I will accept questions.

D1: Can you tell us what life is like in our next lifetime, like when we die on earth, but what our life will be like on the next planet.

Iruka: You may not be able to. If they don't think that God will use you as a tool, that may block the healing. Certainly if he will let you, or someone will let you try, try. You just never know how God will work. Take that opportunity. There are some limitations there, but certainly it is worth a try. [thank you]

===Closing===
 
It appears that we are out of questions for this afternoon. I wish again to encourage you and don't let yourself get down or depressed, or think that you are failing. Because you are not. When you have the whole eternity in mind, this is but a second, this is but a lesson at the very beginning. Think of an eternity with the Father and this is a drop in the bucket, a drop in the ocean. It will get better, it will get easier. Do not condemn yourself because the Father doesn't. Good afternoon.
