Opening Prayer and Prayer of St. Francis

 

Daniel: "Good afternoon my dear friends. I am Daniel, your teacher. As we have been together over these many months, there has occurred within your beings much growth, change, and understanding. The first step in this process came about through the act of faith in your desire to know the Father. The second reason for your growth and changes has come about because of courage, that great gift that you were willing to draw from, to give you the impetus to be willing to be open and to allow yourselves to change and grow. Courage was the step necessary to bring this about, and as I look around at you this evening I see before me very courageous and spiritual beings who, despite the happenings of a material life, are ever willing to pick up from life's trials and to carry forward. Courage is essential in the human domain. It is even more essential in the spiritual, for it does take courage, fed through spiritual channels, to bring about change within the human realm. When you lay yourself open to the Father, you allow His divinity to nourish and feed all of those areas that are essential for human life, that are essential for spiritual life. I encourage you to work on being ever attuned to allowing the fruits of the Spirit to be nurtured, to become a part of your being. And you know full well now, my dear friends, how these fruits can be enhanced, can be brought to life through and for you. Time spent in prayer, in worship, and in stillness with the Father ensures the individual of receiving these gifts. And gifts they are, not only for you in your individual life, but any soul, any personality or being who is gifted with these fruits will, likewise, be a fruit bearer for those whom they come into contact with, your brothers and sisters.

As you strive to bring about balance in your life the way you approach your brothers and sisters will definitely send messages, will definitely plant seeds that they will take note of. And while it may take many generations, those who have the foresight and the courage to take those steps will be the ones who will be known by their fruits. To live as the Master has given us to understand means to live joyously even in the face of taking courageous acts, in the face of conflict with others. You who are being fed in spirit will be those who will, in turn, nourish your brothers and sisters. The Father cannot help but be lived out through you when you are in touch with Him. There, of course, is human weakness, but there is also the overall picture. And in time it is this overall picture that will feed your brothers and sisters; the overall God-consciousness that you reflect will be witnessed by others and will feed them, help to give them the courage to know the Father, to grow and change. Those who allow the Father to be a part of their day will not have a life that is magically easier than any other. Their life will, however, be blessed with the knowledge and joy of understanding the Father's love, of understanding the Father's mercy, of understanding the journey of eternal ascent. And this, in turn, will forever change you as an individual, will help to change others as well. Time spent with the Father can only bring about goodness, for in your knowledge of the Father, of your understanding of Him, you daily, then, create within your own being this growing reservoir of the Father's love. And it, in turn, spills out to others. Take time these next few weeks to harmonize and bring back into balance that which you can, through time spent with your Creator, through time spent with the oneness that will bring you peace and joy. I will now accept questions."

K3: "Good evening Daniel."

V1: "Yes Daniel. And thank you. Your sharing this makes me think of the other thing that I was thinking about from your message tonight. And that is you mentioned a couple of times to be in daily contact with our Father for the next few weeks. And I couldn't help but try to equate that to . ..maybe it is the fact that we aren't going to be together again for two weeks, or maybe the fact that April 24th is coming or, you know, and I don't want to read anything into what you are saying. Surely it should be the rest of our life, unless there is something particular that you had in mind. Or if, indeed, the spiritual pressure that you just referred to is something that is really very near and very wonderful. I don't know if you would care to comment on that?"

assignment because we will not meet for two weeks and I would ask that during these two weeks, those of you who are not seeking some time daily with the Father, begin to make this a real commitment, a real part of your lives. I am often amazed at how careful we as teachers must be, given the fact that our words often entertain fantasies or thoughts that we do not intend. My love goes to you. I thank you for helping me, again, to realize how important communication must be. It is difficult on all spheres, believe me! It is a very exact skill that you work intently on as you ascend in coming into that real communication of what is being presented, to hear exactly what is being communicated, you see. I wish to side track here because this is such an important area in relationships. And I have noted in my times with you that often all of you are not very skilled in listening. When you speak to one another it is often only what you wish to hear that you hear, for you often do only half listen. In my days as a mortal I was very, very much like this. And so I can speak from experience that as you work this week to bring about more balance in your life, think, also, about bringing your communication skills into balance as well. Listen carefully to others as they speak. Take true interest in what they say, for in doing so your relationships will go along much better. A good rule of thumb is this; in every relationship the key to that relationship is the ear. Listen and you will prosper in that regard. You will find much abundance in what is being said. My friends, I will now take my leave of you this evening and I send you my love, my peace, and my sincere wish that over the next time frame you will courageously look at your life and you will do what you can to bring about more harmony so that you can bring in the spiritual fruits that are gifts of the Father. These fruits help you to reach your potential to become more God-centered. My friends I send you, I give you my love. Good evening."
