Prayer: Jim: Oh powerful goodness, bountiful Father, merciful God, increase in me that discovers my truest interests. Strengthen our resolutions to perform what that interest dictates.

===Lesson===

In your lifetime you will experience much change. Some of you would like your life to remain the same, but change is good and beneficial. Change comes in many forms and in many strengths. Some changes will comes subtly while other changes will come forcefully. Depending on where you are spiritually, you will either get the subtle or the forceful. The higher you elevate yourself spiritually the more subtle the change will come. Many of you might not want change because of not knowing what is to come. That is common in a lot of people, to be afraid of the unknown. Change to many people becomes frightening and is unwanted. But if you open your hearts and your minds to change and let the experience envelop you and let yourself become part of the experience, then you shall become a part of change. You will also become a catalyst for change.

Before you can initiate any change in your own life you must first make a decision on what you want to do. I have spoken on this before and how important it is to your life and to those who surround you. How decision-making is an important part of your development. By making decisions you are developing your soul and your spirit. Once you have made a decision you prepare yourself for the change and the attitude that you bring forth towards the change will greatly illustrate where you are spiritually. It is not enough to only accept change but also to have a good attitude towards it. Many people go kicking and fighting when change happens in their life. When you begin to understand what change will mean to you and everyone, then you will be less likely to be afraid or fearful of whatever may come.

===Dialogue===
 
Henry Z.: I have a question JarEl, you made a statement that abrupt change and subtle change was referenced by some spiritual standing and I was not sure if you were referring to a person’s spiritual standing is prepared to meet abrupt change? Or if you were saying that people of a certain spiritual standing are immune to abrupt change and awarded with something more palatable? I am not quite sure what you were trying to say? Maybe if it is possible you could clarify this for me? Thank you.

JarEl: TR, George. The whole world changes around you Lucille. Everyday is a new day for you. When the spring comes around the flowers bloom, when the fall comes the flowers die. There is change in the weather. The same goes for your life, you were born, you live and you die. Some die a lot sooner than others. There is change in your physical environment, some days it rains too much and communities are flooded. Other days it is too hot with the resulting forest fires which destroy communities. These changes are a part of your world and are a part of your life. They shall remain so for quite a long time.
