− | My brother/co-worker, [[Ham]], began the [[seed]] of information in [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Category:Ham 1991]. His [[words]] were more of a variety and [[quantity]]. Ham began with the seed that would start this [[Teaching Mission]]. From there the tree grew and began to take [[root]]. From my friends words I now pick up where he left off. I add more [[roots]], shall we say. My roots are small for now, but nonetheless required for a firm hold in the [[soil]], a firm hold in the [[foundation]] that is our [[spirituality]]. | + | My brother/co-worker, [[Ham]], began the [[seed]] of information in [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Category:Ham 1991].

Next week my lesson will wait for the [[purpose]] of answering questions, any questions, personal or perhaps just something that has been on your [[mind]]. Next weeks lesson will be [[devoted]] entirely to questions. | | My lesson tonight will be short to leave more room for questions.

| I am in the [[realization]] that the same Father who creates [[the universe]]s dwells within my own [[being]]. As time goes by I still stand in [[awe]] and [[wonder]] of [[the Father]] of the universes. Now I realize the road Father planned out for me is the best road. I wouldn’t have taken any other, as I look back. My [[friends]], I realize it is [[difficult]] in the material form to feel His closeness, Father’s [[love]], Father’s concern, but I ask you to make an [[effort]] to recognize His loving watch-care over you, recognize His closeness, His [[kindness]], His concern for every living thing that contains [[soul]]. | | I am in the [[realization]] that the same Father who creates [[the universe]]s dwells within my own [[being]].

− | Stop a moment to [[ponder]] the [[greatness]] and [[grandeur]] of our loving Father who builds [[the universe]]s, who hangs the [[stars]] at night. Yes, I tell you this Absolute [[Personality]] of Pure [[Love]] and Life [[Energy]], [[fragments]] Himself and He [[Thought Adjuster|dwells within you]]. His love for you is complete and [[pure]]. He truly needs nothing from you in return. I tell you, the Father [[desires]] to know you and for you to know Him. He desires for you to give Him back your [[love]]. I say, the more you know [[our Father]], the easier it is to love Him. I ask you all to take a short moment that we may thank [[our Father]] together.

I am coming to realize that this is not true, but without the [[influence]] of organized religion how can we come to know [[God]] and His [[personality]], and thereby learn to love Him, enjoy loving Him? | | V.: Some of us come from organized [[religion]] that has painted a [[picture]] of God’s [[personality]] as being and [[condemning]] and [[angry]].
