Prayer: Divine Parents, join us in our circle of [[trust]] and [[love]] and [[peace]] and [[grace]]. Help us feel your [[presence]] among us and with us as we circle up, seeking for you, seeking for our [[relationship]] with you to be enhanced, to come together with you and [[receive]] greater [[guidance]] and [[understanding]] and some of your [[wisdom]]. It is our delight and [[pleasure]] to approach you at this time. [[Accept]] our [[actions]] as the gift of [[love]] that they are intended to be and meet us as we reach towards you in the [[process]]. Let it be so, even now.
===Lesson===
====''[[Challenge]]''====
Inner Voice: Greetings to all assembled. I come to you tonight by way of the very same [[miracle]] that brings you here, that brings us [[together]], that enables us to have this contact and make this [[connection]]. I am known as the Inner Voice; I am known by many other names as well. I am here to respond to this [[inquiry]] which is so commonly expressed as [[mortals]] of the realm attempt to do [[service]] and bring forth their [[ideals]] and [[manifest]] them in this [[process]]. Truly [[the soul]] and [[the mind]] can [[imagine]] very many different possibilities that could arise and could be implemented and augmented and seized and nurtured and known. Indeed, at times there are so many it appears overwhelming when considering the number of options before you to [[choose]].
I [[understand]] this, I observe it even from your [[perspective]] and I witness you grapple with deciding where to put your mortal [[energies]]; moment to moment, hour to hour, day by day there are a series of [[choices]] we make and remake and affirm and commit to and forsake and recommit and rekindle and [[abandon]]. This series of choices is life itself [[manifesting]]. Each juncture, each choice is this unique moment in [[time and space]] in your eternal [[ascension career]], this juncture of all that is going on. Each choice and every choice presents you with the [[chance]] to choose again and to make a new choice.
So when one has adopted a [[direction]], seized an idea, even an [[ideal]] and moved it forward in their [[consciousness]] and awareness to the point of action, then they have demonstrated the many levels of [[commitment]] necessary to make it so. These [[intentions]] become [[manifest]] as the project itself. They are tangible and observable but they are also spiritual and the [[values]] inherent are [[eternal]]. So what you do from hour to hour, from moment to moment matters very little. What does matter is with how much spirit, with how much [[awareness]], with how much intention and [[purpose]] do you infuse your equation with and in so doing, how do you steer it more towards [[divine]] principles and [[values]]? Anything you do, [[everything]] you do may be sacred equally. There is no certain chore or task or [[demonstration]] one could make to above all ultimately define their [[intention]], but what does define it is your continued approach, your willingness to apply yourselves over and over to whatever is before you. This is the [[character]] you build in your [[personality]]. This is the [[foundation]] that you assemble on which you will stand and grow.
So I [[encourage]] you all to be at ease whenever considering whether you are most appropriately allocating your [[energy]] resources because if you are led to do so and if you do it with [[spirit]], with [[love]] and in accordance with the act of [[grace]] that it is, then you can do no wrong and I [[assure]] you your Divine Parents are well pleased that you have exercised this opportunity and demonstrated [[faith]] in action. This does not mean to say that there are never opportunities to reexamine ones direction, to reassess ones circumstance and to ask former [[questions]] again to verify current answers. This indeed may result in a different choice, a new [[direction]], an altering perhaps ever so slightly of the [[course]] and this is all well and good. You are indeed on route to [[perfection]] and your desire to pursue perfection is all that is required.
I would like to leave you with a new sense perhaps that even as a [[Thought Adjuster|Fragment of Perfection]] that your Inner Voices represent, they also are keenly aware of your [[mortal]] circumstances and quandaries and while it may not be possible to manifest [[absolute]] [[perfection]] in this mortal time/space [[existence]], it certainly is possible for you to be a [[reflection]] of the Divine [[Light]] that accompanies you and of your own Divine Light within in harmony. This is entirely within your [[jurisdiction]]. I invite you to consider this deeply. It can be whatever you will it to be and if in [[doubt]] ever of the direction, simply ask; petitioning the assistance is the key to opening that door at will.
I will attempt to address another question on the floor in reference to large [[changes]] in the environment and the [[population]] and to this I would have a similar response. The key is not what is going to happen 'out there', things will happen 'out there', you can count on it. Therefore, the key is in how these will be [[received]], how they will be navigated, how much [[fear]] will be allowed to run rampant in the equation or how much calm and [[peace]] and [[grace]] may be [[infused]] into the same occasion. This [[choice]] again, is up to you. Every aspect of how you are affected will be up to you. Your portrayal of these [[events]] to others will be up to you, your [[reaction]] left to you.
So, whatever scenario arises before you, see it as a [[challenge]], see it as a test. How [[spiritual]] will your stance remain in the face of a given [[obstacle]]. Will you still have faith and consult in spirit? Will you portray your faith confidently and lovingly to your fellows? Is it possible for you to maintain your stance as situations [[change]] and flex or will you be buffeted about by the [[winds]] of change and the tides of [[adversity]]? Will you be unsecured and swept away with the [[emotional]] tides or will you be moored securely and ready to [[endure]] the external changes? Because you are [[confident]] internally, you will not be shaken in spirit. Your age will face its challenges, your time its own [[dilemmas]]; all times have, all ages will.
There will be those who rise up to meet the challenges and overcome them in [[confidence]] and in [[faith]]. There will be those who are swept away by [[fear]], [[doubts]], uncertainties and [[tragedies]] they need not [[embrace]]. You will [[decide]] how you fare through what will or will not transpire. So I offer you these words of [[encouragement]] to keep on keeping on as you are, to have a sense of [[peace]] that you and your spiritual [[foundation]] may be unassailable, may withstand the assault from all manner of negativism and be undaunted.
I feel as though this has addressed the issues on the table. I would open the floor to allow for any questions.
===Dialogue===
====''[[Grace]]''====
Question: You mentioned the word [[grace]]. Can you expand on that a little more?
Inner Voice: Expand on grace; what a [[privilege]]. Grace is represented in the [[fact]] that we are here having this [[conversation]]. Grace has made this possible. Grace is bestowed upon you. It is your [[life]] and [[everything]] in it. Your very nourishment, the very oxygen you [[breathe]], these are all acts of grace. Grace has been [[manifest]] in the many examples that your [[Master Son|Master Michael]] has so clearly portrayed. He lived a life that demonstrated the [[existence]] of grace. Grace is the ingredient, often thought to be missing for when it's there, [[everything]] works, everything is in [[harmony]]. Everyone rests so thoroughly on grace for the simple operation of their lives that they entirely overlook it most of the time. When they are threatened somehow they may have a new awareness that the grace they had counted on is not there and they need to supplicate to some god or condition to restore it.
Grace is so much around you and all of us that we would do better trying to identify where it is not. Images that come to [[mind]] which seem barren of grace would be images of the ravages of [[war]], of children who are [[starving]], of [[death]] and destruction. These are images that you can clearly detect have very little grace in them and I bring you these crude examples to attempt to illustrate to you that just as you are an [[infant]] in the [[womb]], you are [[surrounded]] by the [[grace]] of the fluid around you which suspends you and keeps you perfectly intact. You are also feeding off of the grace of the [[flow]] from the Mother which has changed from an [[umbilical cord]] to the food that you eat and the air you breathe. Nevertheless it is the same grace bestowed to you freely.
So I [[appreciate]] this question because it is largely hard to define something which is so prevalent that you can barely [[imagine]] places where it is not. Thank you for the [[opportunity]] to express an awareness of this term. [Thank you for the explanation.]
I thank you all for bringing your energies into the equation this evening, being a part of this [[thought]] stream, this energy field, this spirit [[connection]] that we [[share]]. This has indeed been a wonderful opportunity.
Question: I have another question if it's okay?
Inner Voice: Say on.
====''[[Teaching Mission]]''====
Question: I'm just wondering, is there is a role for the [[Teaching Mission]] group still, is that still a viable [[option]] of some sort?
Inner Voice: That [[question]] may be best asked of the participants of the [[Teaching Mission]]. I am personally aware of a number of [[individuals]] who gain a great deal from the normal regular weekly activities of groups they are involved in. This is purposeful, this has [[meaning]]. I think what you may be inferring implies to effects on a larger scale and I can't really speak as to whether or not numbers of people will find these teachings and whether they will be relevant to them; but I will say from my [[perspective]], from our perspective, we are only concerned with one, you individually, personally, your [[ascension career]], your willingness, your [[choices]] to move forward in the [[direction]] of [[divine]] principles.
This is all that matters to the Inner Guides, the Inner Voices, the [[Thought Adjusters]] out there with you all right now. They are not concerned about worldly affairs. The world will take care of itself. We are concerned with the [[glorification]], [[preservation]], enhancement and [[growth]] of you as an [[individual]] and us as a team. If we are all paying [[attention]] to what is immediately our own business and our own growth, then the world will in fact [[become]] a better place and roles will become readily defined as to where you are led to be and what you are led to do.
[[Trust]], have [[faith]], that you have not been led this far for nothing, that certainly your [[talents]] and your willingness will be [[accepted]] and utilized. Trust that all things work towards [[ultimately]] the [[perfection]] of [[the Supreme]] and this, whether it be the [[Teaching Mission]] or your own individual [[ascension career]], are no different. Be at [[peace]] with the ride and be [[inspired]] to be active and put an oar in the water. Lend a hand where you can see you can and if this is what you choose to do and you do it with spiritual [[integrity]], then I [[assure]] you, you have succeeded. That is all that can be asked and you have offered it.
===Closing===
Thank you all who are in attendance tonight. You are cherished and [[loved]] and known, each and every one, a [[vital]] and valuable part of [[the whole]]. I now will take my leave and bid you all a joyous stance as you are confronted with numerous [[opportunities]] before you, so be it.
