===Lesson===

While you were young in your spirit growth your faith began as a hope or an inspiration, an [[energy]] force that stimulated you to reach for [[God]], reach for [[truth]]. Soon in the accumulation of [[experience]] you discovered that your faith not only served to entice you higher, but became itself the platform, the vehicle upon which you moved.

While you were young in your spirit growth your faith began as a hope or an inspiration, an [[energy]] force that stimulated you to reach for [[God]], reach for [[truth]]. Soon in the accumulation of [[experience]] you discovered that your faith not only served to entice you higher, but became itself the platform, the vehicle upon which you moved.

As time passes you acquire a fitness that becomes your base level of ability just as today you are stronger than you were at two or three years old. Your faith does not weaken entirely. It is a ratcheting effect. But in order to ascend higher there must be a period of training and exertion until you click into the next level. The approach will be identical in methodology each time. But your lessons and [[experience]]s will change, for they define what you will realize, what [[truth]] you will comprehend, what state of [[being]] you will attain. I applaud you all for understanding that [[spirit]] [[presence]] within yourselves is not merely a passive state of receptivity, of relaxation, but is at every point in time you are willing to exert yourselves, even if it is merely for preparation, understanding that at a moment of service performance you will be up for the task, capable with the eye to being successful. Thank you for pondering my words. I wish to receive your responses.

Evelyn: Tom's tweak about helping an old acquaintance -- who probably now is a new friend -- is a good example of sustained effort, applying himself not only with the earlier wishful prayer to be of service, but then going beyond the call of duty when the opportunity came up.
