If we, for the moment, consider [[truth]] as [[soil]] in a field, you are the tillers. You know that a tiller simply turns the soil to freshen it, to reinvigorate it for the [[inception]] of new [[life]]. Beneath this topsoil is your subsoil, and I [[observe]] you all have strong [[foundations]] that support you, that provide [[stability]] while on the surface you are stirring things up, creating new [[potentials]]. [[Truth]] never changes, but at the [[same time]] it is always in flux. The tiller contributes to this turning over, [[exposing]] new sides of the same truth to the [[light]]. Once in a while as you maintain this [[receptive]] field for input of [[revelation]], you establish a taproot which sinks deep into the foundation to [[become]] part of you. Other times in your work you have [[discovered]] shallow rooted [[perspectives]] which fade in time and cannot withstand the [[renewal]] as you dig further for greater [[realization]]. In this tilling, truth may appear [[relative]], for at each frozen [[moment]] this field appears one way and at another time another way. But beneath this field your subsoil foundation, your core [[beliefs]], is the [[absolute]] truth.

In your [[growth]] and in your ministry the best approach is tilling, not tamping, not packing but continual turning over and refreshing, for [[growth]] is a living [[reality]]. There is no settled teaching that continues to nourish over long periods of [[time]]. Once the teaching is learned, new tilling must take place. This does not mean you must [[abandon]] all [[attained]] and acquired [[wisdom]] and [[values]], for, as I have mentioned, you will receive taproots that hold fast to your very [[foundation]]. They will prevent [[erosion]]. Remain flexible and yet [[receptive]] to those longstanding [[values]]. Presenting yourselves to your fellows in this [[manner]] will appeal to their innermost [[sensitivities]], for just as a freshly tilled field [[attracts]] birds and other living creatures to its fresh qualities, so will your ministries [[reflect]] in this [[manner]]. Those who seek what you have grown to [[become]] are very [[sensitive]] to this fresh tilled soil. Many a [[seeker]] has grown weary of hardened ground. And again, the deep [[roots]] within your new field will reveal the [[stability]] that is obtainable, even though you continually turn your [[life]] over seeking higher ways to be a son of God on earth.
