Session

Lesson

The Beloved: “Allow Me to accept your songs of praise and gratitude, which are singing in your heart. These songs are like a smile from your soul given to the eternal God. Increasingly purify yourself by being grateful – grateful for the gift of life itself, and the abundance of opportunities it offers.

The true purpose of life is soul- progress. This progress can only be had when the heart is open and the mind is willing to follow, giving you momentum in spiritual growth. However, so often the heart is closed or partly open, and the mind is willful. The heart needs to be cleansed and purified, not only from sorrow and grief, but also from resentment, unforgiveness, anger deceitfulness and the like, for these impede progress, and cause maladies to the physical system, not in the least to the heart.

The mind barricades itself behind all this, and this creates the mountains of unwillingness and lack of trust and faith in a higher Power, while the soul withers and sometimes dies due to the lack of a connection to spiritual nourishment.

You note that I mention heart, soul, and mind separately. They do have their separate functions, but operate as one, just like the physical body does. However, when one is malnourished, all others suffer.

Believe Me when I tell you that love (heart), praise (soul), and gratitude (mind) are the keys to the Kingdom of God within you, and create the entrance thereto. Find something to be thankful for each day, especially when everything seems dark.

You have a saying: ‘when life deals you lemons, you make lemonade.’ Add to that the deep sense that you are safely ensconced in the lap of Mother Spirit, who loves it when Her little ones come to Her with their scrapes and bruises.

Feel the safety and nourishment you are seeking, and go forth from Her embrace with thanksgiving and praise. Despite how bleak life may seem, there are always blessings to be re-counted. Just turn within, where I am always waiting to sustain you. A holy Hush will settle over your heart, soul, and mind, and you will feel encouraged to carry on yet another day, knowing somehow that all is well.”
