===Opening===
 
The presence of God surrounds us. The love of God enfolds us. Wherever we are He is with us to guide us and protects us. This light shines upon us and we are now each to Him in His goodness.

It is I your teacher JarEl. Hearts are heavy tonight. I have been privileged to be here with you tonight. I would like to give you comfort . I would like you to know that everyone has troubled times to bear and witness. As this one was waiting I took here through a field of grass on to the corn field and all cares disappeared. Tonight I would like to experiment with such a journey with both of you. I feel the distraction would lift your hearts, and you could enjoy the journey. Each of you are to describe their impressions that you have as you journey thru the gardens. Describe where you are and what you see.

===Exercise===
 
We will begin with this one, and a quiet pause for adjustments. (pause).(BETTY) I am standing in grass. It is as tall as my chest. As I look out over the tops of the blades of grass it is very thick, very green. Acres and acres of it. The light shinning with shadows crossing the plain, and far away a small mound. There is a path in the grass and a rabbit running along the path. I can see my body. I am just walking along the path behind the rabbit. If it stops I stop. The tops of the grass is so green. If I look down it becomes tan and the earth is very brown, almost black and the dead grass at the base. The seeds falling as the wind blows and the tassels on the grass. The blue sky is so blue.

LUCILLE: I was in a shady area. Trees up above. Two steps up to a sort of arbor, with a bench in it. It was filtered light. At the head of the steps was Jesus with his arms outstretched. He beckoned me to sit down. There were ferns all around and little flowers that grow in the shade. Little brown birds hopping around. I just sat there with Him holding my hand. It was just so peaceful.

===Lesson===
 
JAREL: Dear ones. All is well. Our life's journey is full of experiences and situations designed to temper the will. To construct the sword, to sharpen the knife. so that we may be an instrument for the Father.

   Line 30: Line 29:     
The Father has assured us that the kingdom is of the spirit, and that the world will some day be brought into alliance with His plans and purpose. We are but instruments fashioned for this task. He is fair. We can call upon our images to comfort us and lay our head upon his shoulder and feel his arms around us, giving us comfort and courage.

===Dialogue===
 
HAL: I still have images of many people, walking here and there. All journeying someplace. I guess the journey of the Father is with people. We are ALL a part of His plan, and evolving into a spiritual world.
