You have obviously entered into an area of [[growth]] that is giving you an [[opportunity]] to perceive your emotional base states, thus you are able to see how it is that you are [[happy]] at one moment and unhappy the next. Many [[moody]] people assume this as a way of life. Many people who are [[sensitive]] have anxiety they may be [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manic_depressive manic depressive] because they have such a dramatic range of feelings. There are many who have [[discovered]] that their diet has tremendous bearing on their [[emotions]]. There are many who have discovered that their emotions are where they [[escape]] to when they don't want to [[think]], and some who have recognized that they only want to think and don't want to feel.

These emotional [[colors]] that are a part of your [[personality]] palette are able to be understood and therefore enjoyed and even mastered. Emotions can be effective [[tools]] in ministry. There are those also who would diminish the [[effects]] of their emotional life by regulating their [[synapsis]] through [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychopharmacology pharmaceuticals]. I cannot state, as might a medical doctor, what an individual's physical condition is, nor is that my purview, but I can state that the propensity to witness life through the eyes of an artificial stabilizer, deprives themselves of the experience of getting to know themselves, and discovering for themselves their own well of natural resources that are a part of your packaging.

To stifle who you are, in order to make yourself presentable to a [[society]] in psychic disarray, is certainly [[compatible]] with the circumstances you find, but how [[honest]] is that? How have you served yourself and your [[Higher Self]] by submerging yourself? What a wonderful range of [[reality]] you are -- all of you! - and what a [[superhuman]] individual you can become if and when you know yourself, inside out, as an [[animal]], as a [[social]] creature, as a specimen of [[humanity]], and as a worker in the field. The more you know yourself, the less inclined you are to [[judge]] others. The more [[communion]] you can experience with your fellow human beings, the more you [[experientially]] bond with humanity. Does this bring us back into that Lamp Light, that [[social]] coming together that you may experience and [[share]] all [[knowledge]]? How can you share all of who you are, in all of your [[greatness]], as a fragment of the [[divine]], with [[personality]] [[expression]], if you cannot face yourse! lf -- your [[fears]], your [[desires]], your needs, your [[talents]], etc.?

Take these matters into consultation with the [[Spirit]] in [[Stillness]] and develop your [[relationship]] with yourself such that you know yourself, you know when you are being [[angry]] and why, so that you know when you are sad and can [[endure]] it, when you are [[excited]] and how to [[express]] it. But this is the one field wherein you have total [[authority]], so make yourself comfortable in your own playground, in your own sandbox, in your own [[home]] - for this is where you live - with your [[feelings]] and your [[thoughts]].

Father, we thank you for this group of children who have come to serve you, who have a [[desire]] to know you, that they might [[reveal]] you in their lives and enjoy the sonship [[experience]] with each other. Such [[joy]] they bring. Such [[expressions]] of life they are. [[Bless]] them in their sojourn, in their [[experiential]] situations, that they might see You and learn of Your ways, Your divine Way, the Way that was revealed in the light of your son, Our [[Michael]], when he visited here.
