===Lesson===
 
...is in part what activates your ministry. It is as if God purposefully designed life to need him. In actuality, this is exactly what he did. When Paradise was created in perfection, it was whole and complete. Therefore it was quite simple to create imperfection, God just removed himself from the ingredients.

Our task as teachers is to encourage you with the simplicity of the teachings, not to overwhelm you with complexity. We intend not to dazzle you with facts and statistics, but to encourage you with a nudge. These are my words this evening. Thank you.

Student; Could you enlarge upon our own spiritual inspection.

   Line 104: Line 102:     
JarEl; You know why the body has two hands? One gives and the other receives. IF you are able to give love, then you are also able to receive love and it is alright to receive love from others. It is good to be loved. It is good to give also. There are many psychological metaphors about the need to be loved or the reasons we give love, but look at the Master. He just as readily received love, did he not. Look at the woman at the feast who begged her way in and anointed the Masters' feet to the awe and shock of all His disciples. He received her love. (That's not the distinction I am making). I understand and know the distinction you are making, I am saying that it is O.K. to receive love. I understand the distinction and you are correct that giving love to receive love because you need to be loved, you are also drawing a very fine line. We all do need to be loved. Sometimes, you have to go about receiving love in many ways. Eventually that love will come to you and there is a reciprocal circuit of love. If you have the ability to give love to others, you will begin to receive love also, you will not have to go looking for it.
