Our [[presence]] within you is very [[subtle]].  As we’ve said before, it’s more like the background or surround of your [[consciousness]].  I’m [[focusing]] the Cosmic Mind down to make it useful for you.  You literally have my Mind/Spirit Adjutant kind of mind, distinct from any other order of personal being, like an angel.  I’m part of your mentality and your consciousness is more than just your brain and nervous system activity.  It’s partly me.  I’m always in here with you, if you will, helping you, augmenting your intuition, your courage, your curiosity, your feelings of companionship and gregariousness, the summation of these in your wisdom; and finally, boosting your distinct human ability to feel thankful and worshipful to God for your life.

We so prize your free will and dignity, my children, we want to encourage you to get a feeling for who you are as you make your choices minute by minute, hour by hour, day by day, as you direct yourself into your life.  We value your free will so greatly, we’re not intrusive.  By your very ability to ignore us, it’s your choice as to whether or not to acknowledge us--acknowledge me as part of your mentality.  I am always here.  My Holy Spirit is always part of you, and you are very definitely part of me.

This is the inexpressible glory Michael and I know through our children.  It’s why we’re here.  It’s what we love to do.  But by the very subtlety of our nature it may take a while for you to realize this presence of ours.  So we suggest, in your meditations, a way of being--not exactly unfocused, for there is your intention to contact Spirit--you do have that focus, that desire; but it’s opening yourself to what you cannot anticipate.  Because we are always here.  We are part of the ever-changing quality of your consciousness, now narrowly focused on a very particular task right in front of you, now kind-of dreamily being entertained when you’re at the movies or watching TV.

So it’s usually in your mediation and just being still, at first, you can begin to register us.  We always appreciate it so much, my children, when you say, Hello, Mother!--or, Hello, Michael!--I’m glad to be here with you, glad to know you are in my life and I am in yours.  As Michael said in his human life, he is the way to our Father.  This orientation, his Spirit of Truth leads you directly to the indwelling presence of God in your mind.  It is this presence of God, my children, your own Thought Adjuster which can spiritualize your thinking, which means making your consciousness broader and deeper and evermore all-inclusive of all that you are and all that the creation is.

This orientation of Michael’s Spirit of Truth opens you up to contact and relate with your Thought Adjuster.  As you get a greater sense of time becoming ever more still, you can feel yourself expanding.  Your soul comes forth and your time units of maturity begin to develop.  You get closer and closer to experiencing a real sense of what the transcendent dimensions of time are--that time is not only passing, but that it also holds everything.  And as you gain this greater sense of continuity, my children, you get some detachment from your own immediate thoughts.  You don’t identify so strictly with only what you are thinking at the moment.  Now you can begin to notice as you deepen into your meditation, how your thoughts begin to change, how your thoughts are becoming adjusted.  This is the presence of God in your mind, and there is no limit to this expansion as there is no limit to Him.

If you are open to it, if you are willing to listen and hear within you, and then value and heed what comes through, this presence of God can literally give you ideas, can even suggest the next step to take.  You’ve all known moments of this, when, as you say, an idea came as a bolt from the blue, so startling and surprising, yet so welcome too as it totally comprehended the whole complicated situation.

True enough, you are a creative spiritual being yourself.  You originate most of the thoughts that go through your mind.  It’s also true that in your highest mind, the most spiritually creative part of your mind, is exactly where you link up with us.  So you can never tell for sure, at first, whether a particular marvelous idea came from your Thought Adjuster or from your own creative personality.  For all practical purposes it doesn’t matter.  It’s your personal quality of recognition--of the value of the wonderful idea, its practical usefulness--that is just what you need.  The recognition is what’s important.  As Michael taught, as Jesus, you need this ability to recognize truth irrespective of its origin.  This is your orientation.  This is how you grow.
