Changes

The love of [[God]] [[surrounds]] us and becomes known to us in ever increasing fullness. His [[beauty]] surrounds us as well, and as we are given eyes to see, so too, does our ability to [[appreciate]] expand. The [[power]] of God, that which upholds the [[universe of universes]], and filters down into our very lives, upholding us in times of need and [[sorrow]], becomes more clearly [[understood]] as we open our [[hearts]] wider and wider to accept His [[presence]] in our lives. Wherever we gather, He is.

I appreciate having the [[opportunity]] to listen to the [[camaraderie]] I see [[expressed]] between you. Your ability to open your [[hearts]] to new comers is an expression of [[the Father]]'s love as it [[flows]] out through you. You have learned your lessons well in these past years. It quite often appears to us, and perhaps to you as well, that they have become [[automatic]], you no longer need to think about giving [[service]] to your fellows. This of course, is what we've been working toward in our [[efforts]] to teach you the way [[Michael]] would have you reach out to all of His children. We are [[experiencing]] some [[difficulty]], and would ask your understanding. We are attempting [[correction]]. The lesson I had [[prepared]] for this evening is hitting too close a chord within the [[heart]] of this [[student]]; we are attempting to change [[directions]].

We look on the other side of the coin, and when one of you says something that repels a [[feeling]] of [[camaraderie]], this too may be used, for in recognizing a [[difficulty]] in [[expression]], within another, gives you the [[opportunity]] of opening your heart to that person further, attempting to [[understand]] why they behave, or speak in the [[manner]] that they do. There will come a [[time]], we [[hope]], in the [[future]], when these difficulties will be laid on the table, clearly, for each of you to [[recognize]] the shortcomings, the failings, those areas within each of you that need yet to be polished, for you are all still rough around the edges in many areas. And in working [[together]] in this fashion, will these roughened edges become smooth, will the [[gems]] that you are begin to shine ever more brightly, as you let go of the imperfections you find within. I would ask you once again to make an [[effort]] over this coming week, to reach out to one another in as many small or large ways as possible. In your reaching out there is a [[flowing]] of [[love]] from [[the Father]] to your [[brothers and sisters]] and yet does it have the [[power]] of [[strengthening]] and changing you even further, for when you push yourselves in any way beyond your [[comfort]] zone, in the work you for [[this Mission]], does it have the ability to open you further to [[the Father]], to the existing [[circuitry]], and to your own ability to hear the voice within and react.
