Session
Lesson
Prayer: Donna: Dear Father/Mother God thank you for our group here gathered. Thank you for the teachers that you send. Thank you for the messages and the lessons that we get from our teacher JarEl. Please help us to hear what you would have us hear and understand with our hearts what you would have us do. In Christ Michael’s name, Amen.
JarEl: TR, George. Good evening, it is I, your teacher, JarEl. (Welcome) It is good to be back and I also welcome those who have not been here for a while.
Lesson
Relationship, Personality
When I observe the people that are here tonight and those that I connect with later on, I am glad that I see a will for improvement in each person’s life. Despite the daily toil of this life, many of you continue to strive to move forward in your spiritual career and your personal relationships with one another. And much of this relating to one another is directly linked to your spiritual career. For how you treat others is how you would act towards God. And how you see others is how you see yourself.
There is much to learn when you interact with others and you relate to them. And you learn to not only accept them but to love and appreciate them. You learn a lot about them but mostly about yourself; about what type of person you are, about what makes you glad, what moves your spirit and even, sometimes, what makes you angry and what you cannot tolerate. And much of this interrelationship calls for introspection of yourself, your soul growth and of your personality. Your personality is what comes through despite your current soul growth or maturity. Your personality is something that covers all aspects of your life and continues on through eternity.
But for someone to really know you and know your personality, you must overcome the challenges of maturity. You must stop being immature and learn how to respect and love others so that they can then truly see your real personality, the real person that you are. Then they will begin to appreciate the reality of you, they will see how you will grow and change over time and become a worthwhile friend, someone that they would like to know for a long time. It is those who decide not to grow and not to move forward that become boring to people, for they have seen it before, they know where that story ends and they are not impressed.
So rather than being a cliché or a stereotype, break those boundaries and those molds that have been set for you and move forward in your own person and your own personality. Create a new idea for people to imagine. Create a new vision for people to see. You are a unique individual on this planet that has no equal. It is through your eyes and through your mind that others will get to know not only you, but your vision and ideas, your voice. And this is what is unique about all of you.
But if you decide not to grow, not to move forward, if you are afraid of the challenges of what life has to hold, then you will just fall into one of those quagmires where everything is recognizable and predictable and life is just a daily toil of humdrum predictability.
It’s the souls who decide to challenge themselves to find new ideas, new relationships, it’s those that set themselves out into the world, the courageous hearts, that find new meaning and new elevation to their spiritual growth – it is they who become perfected over time. It is they who people begin to admire and to desire. It is those who decide to find God in themselves and in others that inspire a whole generation. Be that person – find your life. Do not settle for what has been given to you for there is more to achieve in life. There is more to learn and there are greater relationships that are on their way. So be unafraid of life. Find God in those that are around you. There is a potential in everyone, even those that rub you the wrong way.
Are there any questions here tonight?
Dialogue
Forgiveness
Stella: Well, this is slightly different, but, it’s about the passage in the Lord’s Prayer: “…forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us…” Does the ‘us’ mean you individually? Or are we to forgive, say, those groups of people who are destroying our planet? Do we forgive their trespasses? What does that prayer mean, us or them or both or what?
JarEl: TR, George: It means trespasses of all types and of all orders. And the ‘us’ is everyone as well as them. You must learn how to forgive all people despite what errors they have committed on any level of existence. God is most forgiving and He forgives all. And you are striving to be perfect, like God. You cannot hold resentment over one group of people for the things that they have done.
You can certainly try to change the course of your planet so that these mistakes will not be made. But many on this planet think like the people that made that mistake and it is very hard to judge one group over another when they are equally capable of making such mistakes. None of you must hold yourself above one another. You are all equally fallible. This is a time for forgiveness and a time to move forward. You will learn from the mistakes that you make and that is how society survives, by moving forward and correcting itself at every juncture. So, yes, forgive us and forgive those who trespass against us means everyone.
Stella: See, now, these people who are doing this…I am not affected particularly. But, there are millions who are; women, children, men, who are being unfairly targeted because of greed, avarice, and press for power on the part of certain individuals, that I find abhorrent that they could be that way to their own people. That’s what I don’t like.
JarEl: TR, George: And you should not like that. It is like that saying goes “Hate the sin but love the sinner”. Greed and avarice should be hated. These are things that do not belong in human consciousness, but are there nonetheless. For you are all evolutionary creatures that are prone to greediness and selfishness and this sort of culture will continue for as long as many of you hold money and power above anything else. It is a cultural thing that is endemic within your society. It is very difficult to root out for it has been there for a very long time. The best you can hope for is that you learn from these mistakes and a society, such as yourselves, strives to never have this happen again. It takes a lot of willpower to make this change happen.
Catastrophism
Stella: Will our planet survive this terrible debacle in the Gulf of Mexico?
JarEl: TR, George: Yes it will, but it will be a hard lesson learned by your people. Much good will eventually come from this and perhaps those that are experiencing this catastrophe cannot see this good just yet and it will be likely so for many years. But we have learned from experience that such events trigger in human consciousness a will to change things so that something similar does not happen again. But it is our prayer that this sort of willpower remains within the human consciousness for as long as possible, or at least until real change is made. We often witness how easily a society may forget certain lessons in one generation or two.
Stella: Now they want to use nuclear (weapons) to stop the oil from gushing out. What do you think of that?
JarEl: TR, George: I think that whatever measures your society implements on this problem will be evidence as to the dangers of such a problem arising ever again. If nuclear weapons were to be used, the problem itself will be even more greatly highlighted. As it is, it is in much of your country’s consciousness as to how difficult and terrible it is and many are searching their minds for not only solutions, but avoidance of such problems ever again. And the human mind is very creative and much good will come of such mass consciousness.
Your planet is on the verge of great change. Many times it takes triggers like these to implement those great changes. It is unfortunate that such events must scar your planet.
Closing
And for now I will say goodnight.
All: Goodnight JarEl
