===Lesson===
In today’s lesson we will talk about the different aspects of faith. Of all things experienced within the life of a mortal striving to live a spiritually centered life, faith is the most important component. This faith of which we speak, has but one source, yet moves in many directions. The source of course, is the Father; the direction may be aimed toward Him, encompassing your belief in Him, and His many agents. It may be directed toward your brothers and sisters, encompassing your belief in them, in spite of the many negative things you see manifested from them. When one has faith in ones brothers and sisters this faith is able to see beyond those things seen by the physical eyes. Those visions thought of by you as reality, are mere distorted reflections of their true reality. It’s something akin to looking at yourself in one of those funny mirrors one may find at an amusement park. First you’re seen as thin, then tall, then short, then fat; all of these different images are coming from the you that you think of as your reality. None of them are accurate. This same analogy may be applied to ones spiritual reality when reflected back and seen through physical eyes. Your faith must be strong enough to see beyond those imperfections reflected back at you. Knowing the Father lives within each of your brothers and sisters helps to establish a center from which to visualize their reality. This process takes place on an unconscious level each time you reach out in love and understanding. You will however, reach a point in your development when this contact will no longer be on an unconscious level, you will be aware of this process on many levels. Your faith encompasses your ability to understand the spiritual destiny of all mortals on your world, in spite of the lack of spiritual direction you may witness; again utilizing only physical sight. All these levels of faith will one day be unified and directed outward upon all you contact. Understand that this process of growing, nurturing, sustaining your spiritual growth, is as necessary to your spiritual growth as was crawling and walking to your physical.

In today’s lesson we will talk about the different aspects of [[faith]]. Of all things [[experienced]] within the life of a [[mortal]] striving to live a spiritually centered [[life]], [[faith]] is the most important component. This faith of which we speak, has but one [[source]], yet moves in many [[directions]]. The source of course, is [[the Father]]; the direction may be aimed toward Him, [[encompassing]] your [[belief]] in Him, and His many [[agents]]. It may be directed toward your [[brothers and sisters]], encompassing your [[belief]] in them, in spite of the many [[negative]] things you see [[manifested]] from them. When one has [[faith]] in one's brothers and sisters, this [[faith]] is able to see beyond those things seen by the [[physical]] eyes. Those [[visions]] thought of by you as [[reality]], are mere [[distorted]] [[reflections]] of their true reality. It’s something akin to looking at yourself in one of those [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/House_of_mirrors funny mirrors] one may find at an amusement park. First you’re seen as thin, then tall, then short, then fat; all of these [[different]] images are coming from the you that you [[think]] of as your [[reality]]. None of them are accurate.
