− | A. I would say to you that no one can prevent you from [[achieving]] an [[understanding]] of [[the Father]], for this is truly a [[personal]] [[experience]] that I, the [[Melchizideks]], that even the [[Ancients of Days]] can have no bearing on if you so [[desire]] to know Him. I would suggest that you follow your own [[path]] of [[spiritual]] [[understanding]]; and if those around you, in time, are not able to [[adjust]] to what it is you seek, then you must make one of those [[difficult]] [[decisions]] as to what is most important in your life. I tell you without [[hesitation]] that seeking His will and [[understanding]] the outworkings of it on a daily life is your [[priority]]. While [[family]] life, while [[material]] existence and accumulation of [[knowledge]] through the text are all very [[worthy]], [[noble]] and [[necessary]] tasks to perform, your [[relationship]] with your [[Creator]] is of [[paramount]] importance. As you [[grow]] in this [[understanding]], as I have said, there will shine within this [[spirit]] [[light]]. It is like a [[magnet]]. It is very [[attractive]] to those who do not [[share]] this [[light]]. They will seek [[ideas]] and [[thoughts]] from you as to why you feel ways that you do. Do not be [[afraid]]. Do not allow anyone to keep you from Him. | + | A.

| Q. Hi, Welmek, this is Mark. My [[question]], we talked yesterday about [[doubt]] and what-have-you. I didn't get an [[opportunity]] to [[research]] it, but I do have a question in terms of [[doubt]] as it pertains to our [[personal]] [[hesitation]] in our day-to-day lives and what we can do to overcome that. | | Q.

| Q. Hello, Welmek, it's Donna, and I want to tell you how [[happy]] I am to be here with you and our spirit [[friends]] tonight.

− | A. When you [[interact]] with anyone, try to look at them as though it is [[Jesus]] himself. When you do this, [[picture]] in your [[mind]], if you will for a [[moment]], the [[response]] and [[actions]] and [[reactions]] that you will have with this [[individual]]. If you see this [[person]] as one who is a brother or sister of yours, all of a sudden the way in which you [[perceive]] them will change.

| It is only [[natural]] for us to look at the world this way. I cannot tell you how saddened we become when we see all of the [[sorrow]] and misery that is many times self-[[perpetuated]] by one's own [[ego]] and lack of [[caring]]. Look at your brethren as though [[Thought Adjuster|the spirit]] that [[the Father]] has [[bestowed]] upon them is [[part]] of you, and when you do this you will no longer feel [[prejudice]].

Once you [[feel]] this [[love]] for them, whether you [[assess]] their [[character]] as one in which you wish to [[associate]] with or not, once this [[love]] permeates your [[being]], you will have [[achieved]] that [[happiness]] and [[peace]] that you seek now. | | It is only [[natural]] for us to look at the world this way.

| A. I know of the incident. I can tell you that as far as a [[miracle]], that there are truly very few miracles in [[the universe]].

They are outworkings of universe or [[cosmic]] [[laws]].
