Daniel: "Good evening. I am Daniel. I am your [[teacher]]. [[Happy]] I am, as always, to be here with you; in your [[presence]], to hear you and [[feel]] a part of this [[Teaching Mission|wondrous mission]], this venture we are on [[together]]. I am happy to say that tonight we will have a [[visiting]] [[teacher]]. This teacher is F2's own [[private]] teacher who has been with her this last week, [[practicing]], working, and [[sharing]]. Please welcome into your [[hearts]], Cindia, a [[beautiful]] and spiritual [[being]] who would like to address you this evening."

[[Fortitude]] is a very special gift that gives you the [[strength]] and [[power]] to [[endure]]. [[Courage]] is the willingness to do so. Please know that without these things you could not or would not move forward. You would tend to draw yourself into a shell, for your [[hope]] would dwindle. So use these mighty [[tools]] to your [[advantage]]. Let them bring you along the [[path]] to the [[First Source and Center]] which you seek daily.

I would like to make an [[analogy]] of you and the [[beautiful]] fish you have in your [[state]]. This [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salmon salmon] is one which is spawned, is born in the rivers, in the channels, in the pristine area in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idaho Idaho]. And this [[beautiful]] fish, when it finds within its being the [[instinct]] to move on, makes a tremendous [[journey]] to an [[unknown]] destination. But yet this fish follows this [[journey]], ever forward moving to whatever will befall its way. You are like this beautiful fish in that you, too, are on a life [[journey]], never knowing for sure what will be around the next bend but yet, because of your [[fortitude]], your [[courage]], you [[endure]] whatever transpires, whatever comes your way. You seek to always find that greater avenue, that greater [[channel]] that helps you to move forward.

And so like this fish, you find yourselves often times traversing the channel and suddenly you are at the end into a wide expanse, the [[ocean]]. The ocean is like your life; full of much [[grandeur]], full of much [[beauty]] and yet there is always the [[danger]] of the [[inevitable]] within the ocean [[creature]] life of always being a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prey prey] to some other bigger fish than yourself. And those who are always [[mindful]] of this are able to dodge these [[different]] creatures and can continue with life. Is this not like you and your [[soul]], dodging the mishaps of life to move forward, to continue with your life? And so too, then, as you go through life you are ever called to follow that higher [[path]]. And there comes a [[time]] in your life when you hear this [[calling]], you can no longer stay in the vast [[ocean]]. You can no longer dodge here and there and go wherever. For you are on, now, a certain [[course]]. You have heard the [[First Source and Center]] speak to you and you have [[committed]] yourself to following His will. And so like the salmon, then, you must traverse back to that [[source]] from whence you came.

And so, [[instinctively]], the salmon makes the long perilous [[journey]] back to the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salmon_run spawning grounds]. And in this [[journey]] he must fight the currents and swim upstream, must leap grand waterfalls, must be careful not to be caught in the man made dams that are along the way. And so, too, is your life like this. You must make those leaps of [[faith]], the waterfalls. You must be careful of the man made pitfalls, the dam. You must fight an uphill battle, the current coming against you.

And so you [[travel]] because you have [[fortitude]]. You have [[endurance]]. You are full of [[courage]]. You know that whatever befalls your way will be that which will bring you closer to [[the Father]]. If you can at all times be in one [[thought]], and that is of doing His will, you can swim against the current, even though there are times when it is so swift that it pushes you back. You seek another way around it. You seek a way that you can go up the waterfall. And even though when you make this leap you may be scarred, you may be bruised, you will have [[grown]], you will have [[endured]].

And so my [[friends]], if I may so call you that, know that the [[love]] of [[the Father]] rains down upon you, ever feeding and [[nourishing]] you with those things that you need to bring you to Him. Never be [[afraid]]. Never lose your [[courage]]. Let your [[fortitude]], your [[character]] bring you forward. Always be ready for whatever is around the bend. As you have been ever so [[faithfully]] building your [[foundation]], as you have been making that [[commitment]] to [[the Father]], you have brought forth more [[courage]].

And so again let me [[thank]] you for allowing me the [[opportunity]] to speak with you this evening. I would like to thank F1 for her [[courage]] this week; for stepping beyond the bounds that had at one time [[limited]] her; for being able to let go of [[fear]]. Know that in all of your daily lives, all of you, there will be those times when you are called upon to be [[courageous]], to show fearlessness. Know that you have within you the capability and the [[power]] to be that. When you can [[believe]] that, you will be on a right step. But when you know that, you are on the right step. Make this [[belief]] something that you really do know. I will now turn this back over to [[Daniel]]. Again, let me thank you for this [[opportunity]]. You are all [[beautiful]] [[beings]]. I am pleased to make my [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debut_novel debut] in [[Teaching Mission|this mission]] with you in this [[group]] this evening."

Daniel: "Thank you Cindia. This is again Daniel. Your [[words]] were [[inspiring]], did have much [[meaning]], did convey much [[thought]], did bring forth those things which as a [[group]] can be dwelt upon. I am so pleased that you and F1 are making much headway. As time goes on, F1 will be able to help out in the [[Pocatello TeaM|Pocatello group]] until she and L1 are in [[knowledge]] of where their lives will be going.

And I have [[thought]] of that, spiritual [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toddlers toddlers], often this week. And especially I need to say thank you, Daniel, for the references to your own [[path]] and [[growth]]. I think of how often I say to the First Grade children, 'I [[understand]] you because I have been there'. And I hear that in your comments here.
