===Lesson===
Our [[motivation]] is guided toward the over-all extension of our highest [[intent]], that is the fuller and more complete [[comprehension]] of [[our mission]] task as it proclaims and sustains [[our Master]]'s work. I am Abraham. I [[understand]] your uneasiness concerning your [[individual]] contributions because I, myself, have [[experienced]] these same [[emotions]]. Yes, and I further have laid down human [[barriers]] that create human [[despair]]. [[Readying]] ourselves in our vessels of clay surely increases our flame above, even that flame which has so recently begotten you. Yes, certain undecided [[litanies]] steady their hands and steel their [[hearts]] to the pleas all around, even as our [[humble]] plea comes [[begging]]. [[Listen]], and so you are listening, (everyone surely can listen sometimes) to a [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=First_Book_of_Kings#Chapter_19 still, small voice] who also comes [[begging]] at your door. Anyone who has heard Him can never afterward be about His great undertaking without [[certainty]].

[[Certainty]] bestows herself upon a [[noble]] and generous [[character]], (even upon less than [[perfect]] characters) as her [[intimate]] [[companion]]. Her every [[guidance]] produces a result. Every inner [[whispering]] [[leads]] the boy along toward [[universal]] [[manhood]]. Even that certitude which comes in [[passivity]] guides, [[leads]] and [[bestows]]. Lend an active [[heart]] that is certain, sure and destined its active role to [[play]]. Play your active part as though an [[angel]] held your hand and [[whispered]] your lines into your ear. Such human [[bravery]] does this human [[drama]] require. Cease your two-bit [[crises]] that hold fast the [[mind]] in [[allegorical]] chains. Create instead with the [[humble]] and [[mortal]] [[tools]] of the [[mind]] an opera-house of great [[passion]]. Express [[emotion]] through the mental refinement of great [[songs]].

We who occupy or have occupied the [[mortal]] tabernacle, regard it as the greatest and most exciting [[privilege]]. You, Rebecca, have often [[desires]] it's release and the greater heights of [[morontial]] life. Don't [[dream]] away the [[life]] you're living, child, while waiting to advance. Never will you find [[adventure]] so keen nor [[excitement]] so [[glorious]] as this [[humble]] mortal start, or beginning.

(Abraham then proceeds to [[read]] everyone present the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riot_act riot act]) All of you have needed our [[reprimand]] at times. As I have the [[responsibility]] governing your station, I elected to shoulder this [[burden]] today. Look ahead! The entire [[work]] that is asked of you has already been done for you. [[Everything]] that is to come has already previously been arrived at through [[wisdom]] and [[understanding]]. Your [[assignments]] have the [[advantage]] greater than even the [[Apostles]]. [[Realize]] and [[recognize]] that all of your way is rather straight. When a man is given great [[talents]], his [[argument]] against those talents is [[foolish]].
