My lesson today JoiLin, will be on commitment and knowledge of self. It is understandable due to the human electro-chemical make-up, when commitments so fervently made one moment, become watered down through this physical mechanism and quickly become forgotten or at best unrecognizable.

Self-control and the understanding of self must come before any commitments made by that same self, have the ability to bear fruit. There is a saying prevalent among your people that speaks succinctly of that which I am referencing, and that is, "words are cheap". Anyone can speak volumes of words. But until the heart of the individual gets behind those words and pushes them toward action, they are as sounding brass, signifying nothing. So, while I may say "tomorrow I will do thus and so", fully intending to do that which I am professing, until I breathe love and action into those words, naught will come of them.

Please do not misunderstand, our level of patience and understanding in dealing with you of the human species, cannot even be conceived of by the likes of yourselves; we do not grow impatient nor weary, when we must repeat certain teachings over and over again, anymore than you become weary or impatient when you are teaching your child who has just learned to take its first steps. It is our privilege to so serve you and we will continue, have no fear, until the goal is achieved. If at times it seems as if we take a sterner tone, it is only said so, in the hope that it will spur you on to that action of which we speak.

Knowing yourselves is of paramount importance. Filling yourselves with that love of the Father, with that love that comes from Him, to you, as a source of energy, is the beginning, the means by which you will come to know yourselves.

Find that place, that place of love and begin there. Knowing yourself as a holy child of God, loved completely by Him, always understood. Begin there, and look into all the dark corners, find those thoughts, those memories that you have within yourselves, those things for which you have withheld forgiveness, whether it be toward others or toward yourselves, makes no difference. The point being, that those things for which you have withheld forgiveness must be brought into His Light and let go.

Spend some time each day, if you can, trying to pull up within your mental screen of awareness, those areas hidden in darkness. They are your stumbling blocks. Those are the things that keep you from moving forward, that keep you from knowing yourselves as your Father knows you. It is only through a process such as this of addressing and letting go of these things that you will finally be free to be the child of Light you were meant to be. You hold the key, no one else. You must be the activator of this mechanism of cleansing, of bringing to the Light and letting go.

Set aside some time, if it can’t be daily, then let it be at least once a week, knowing that the more time you spend, the sooner your goal will be reached. Spend this time earnestly seeking for those things held back, and each time you focus on something and bring it out, talk to the Father about it; you will hear His answers, if not verbally, than certainly on an emotional level. You will understand these things have no need to be held any longer. Letting them go will fill you with lightness, as if a burden has just been lifted from your shoulders, and indeed, that will be the case.

Try this dear students, and let us see if this cleansing, this clearing out of information and feelings no longer useful to you doesn’t’ bring you more peace and a clearer understanding that you are indeed, an evolving child of the Father; daily being filled all the more with His Light. Help your people, my students, by first helping yourselves.

It has been brought to my attention that there are some groups across your land that on a regular basis set up workshops for its members. These workshops may deal with many different issues, including that of which I speak. It has been found most effective, for certain groups, to work through some of these dark areas within themselves in the safe supportive setting of this their extended family.

Whatever way you choose, know that we are ever here, ever supportive, wishing that we could take that first step for you, yet knowing and understanding that you are indeed, master of your destiny. You will or will not take those steps, as you see fit. Know always that you are held within the umbrella of our love. We visit you sometimes daily, but always at least once during the week, trying to instill within you a sense of our presence and the knowledge of our support.

Seek each other out as you go about your week, knowing that much strength may be found in the exchange of support with others whose minds and hearts are turned toward the same path. I leave you new, thanking you for this time and admonishing you to seek always the Father’s light.
