===Lesson===
We have a lesson prepared today dealing with an individual’s willingness to step out in faith. Michael taught His apostles to do this by simply sharing with those persons they encountered along the way, something of themselves; they found a common bond with each person that they could then build upon. This common link did not necessarily have to be spiritual in nature; it might have consisted of a similarity in background, or perhaps common experience in the work place, or simply a common life experience. The point being, that the beginning of the relationship was founded upon this common bond. This same format may be followed by each of you when you begin to reach out, in a personal way, to your brothers and sisters. Establish first, this common link and build upon that. Do not expect to convert these individuals to your way of thinking, simply look for those things, those positive aspects within their life experience or belief systems that you can relate to.

We have a lesson [[prepared]] today dealing with an [[individual]]’s willingness to step out in [[faith]]. [[Michael]] taught His [[apostles]] to do this by [[simply]] [[sharing]] with those persons they encountered along the way, something of themselves; they found a common bond with each person that they could then build upon. This common [[link]] did not necessarily have to be [[spiritual]] in [[nature]]; it might have consisted of a similarity in background, or perhaps common [[experience]] in the [[work]] place, or simply a common [[life]] experience. The point being, that the beginning of the [[relationship]] was founded upon this common bond. This same format may be followed by each of you when you begin to reach out, in a [[personal]] way, to your [[brothers and sisters]]. Establish first, this common [[link]] and build upon that. Do not [[expect]] to [[convert]] these individuals to your way of [[thinking]], simply look for those things, those [[positive]] aspects within their life experience or [[belief]] systems that you can relate to.
There will come a time, if the relationship is allowed to expand, when they may begin to recognize that there is something about you that seems to draw them to you. They may at that time begin to question your belief system. It is at this time that those seeds, those pearls, may be spoken. Do not push, simply, gently, lay these out before them. Answer only those questions to which they seek answers. This may then become for them a time of seeking, a time of changing, and it will have at it’s root, those efforts expended by you; those times you allowed yourself to open to them in a non-judgmental, non-aggressive fashion.

This then, is the manner in which we would have you step out in faith and serve your brothers and sisters, and by so doing, serve humanity. Is it not easy to see how this process will help to build the foundation upon which Michael’s message will stand? It is a cumulative, ever expanding process. Think of someone within your own life with whom you have contact that instills within you a desire to emulate those actions manifested through the channel of love. In this same way you will be setting into motion a similar desire to emulate you by those persons you open yourselves to in a like fashion. And this, dear students is my lesson for you today.
