AARON: Greetings, I am Aaron, preceding the opening prayer by commenting on your discussions, knowing that these issues are not always easy, or comfortable. Having things fit in nice packages always seems more comfortable, but relationships are seldom this tidy. Therefore we applaud your ability to work it out, to share what you think, and feel comfortable in sharing what you think. I will step back and allow another to pray with you.

And it is elements of comfort I wish to address this evening, for comfort is a deceiver. The animal nature seeks comfort, the warmth of the sun, the cool of the shade, the slating of thirst, the warmth of a full belly, the fulfillment of the mating instinct, and so forth. And while the seeking of comfort is a necessary component of dual natured beings, comfort can be the antithesis of spiritual growth.

DANIEL This is Daniel. Lest you think I am not here, I will say a few words in prayer.

DANIEL This is Daniel. Lest you think I am not here, I will say a few words in prayer.

To those who have created all there is, was, and will be, to whose allegiance we hold foremost, we offer our lives, our very souls, to the path You have set before us. Allow each of us, in his or her own way, the opportunity of making mistakes but growing through them. For we all seek that perfection which lies far down each of our paths to You, First Source and Center. Be with each of these, our charges, as they seek to live their lives in ways which will glorify You. In the Master, Christ Michael’s Holy name, we pray.
