===Opening===
 
Prayer(Bob S.): Hear these words of encouragement. Never doubt the words you hear if they ring true, for they have the impact, the authority, the blessing of Him Who created us all. Now we ask that each one here will listen with open minds to the words which their elders have prepared for them. From the Master Who created all, we pray. Amen.

Tomas(Bill K.): Greetings! This is Tomas, your former teacher and devoted friend. I bring salutations and warm feelings from Gerdean who still feels she is an essential member of this S.E. Idaho teaching mission family. You know that she is in a state of great comfort, for her heart's desire began in Albuquerque where she and I teamed up and I began to transmit through her lips. We have traveled the United States: the Eastern seaboard, the Northwest, and now we are back in the comfortable climes of the Southwest. She looks with pleasure at your transcripts for they do give a sense of your spiritual comradery and progress. She treasures, as do I, the time that she was with you as it was most important that we team up with an experienced TR, as well as provide opportunity for others of you to learn the process of transmitting/receiving. I have been assigned this evening's main address, which I regard as a real privilege. However, before the prepared part of my lesson, I will respond to Jonderock's comments. Thank you, Bob, for jumping in and completing the circle of your participation in this group by sharing your heart's desire to gain greater patience.

===Lesson===
 
The issue of patience has to do with the same topic that we have been discussing from many Teaching Mission outposts. The subject is learning to balance one's personality so that Spirit rather than ego is in the driver's seat. Impatience is a manifestation of imbalance. It is one of the out of balance noises that the wheel makes when it is not spinning smoothly, evenly, and in perfect balance. Impatience implies that things are not going the way the impatient one desires, either in direction or in time frame. It is a subtle, but real, manifestation of the ego, so you see. Therefore, to request more patience is really to request more balance in one's life.

Thank you for proposing this very realistic, rubber meets the road type of problem, Bob. Please understand my words as devoid of criticism, stated or implied. If you all were perfectly in balance you would be up here in the morontia estate, fused and progressing further on. So it is a virtue to recognize one's experiential status, one's areas of growth needs, rather than to avoid them or deny their existence. Therefor your prayer to be more patient is of the highest order, being the desire to be more in balance and to let your trust in our Father so settle your heart that anxiety, irritability, and impatience will melt away as does the frost on a sunny spring morning. These are my words to you.

===Closing===
 
Tomas: Very good, my friend. Indeed, I am comfortable here in the presence of you all. Gerdean would give her eye teeth to be here tonight! So I will convey that love, and she will see it in print, too. Well, then, our evening is concluded. I am given the honor of the closing prayer. Let us stand and hold hands once again.

Eternal Father, You have not hidden Yourself in eternity but come into each of us through Your Spirit presence. Eternal Son, You have not been aloof in Paradise but have come to us through Your Creator Son, Christ Michael. Infinite Spirit, You are the very Source of our mind, the life of our bodies through Your Divine Minister Whom we all worship and honor along with all other aspects of Deity. All praise be to You. All glory be to You. All joyful obedience be to You, for You are that absolutely overflowing, gracious, Source of Love which underlies our very beings. Help us to remove the blocks that ego would put in the way to that flow of Love through us, so that we can experience the joy of serving each other and contributing to the perfection of the Supreme. We ask all these things because we are Your children. Amen.
