You might [[think]] we could stand still for a [[moment]], and you do if you [[practice]] [[stillness]]. It is only in such [[moments]] that you are truly at [[rest]]. At other times, even when you [[sleep]], your [[minds]] are very [[active]] and very [[engaged]] in the labor of advancing in this [[light]] that is being poured upon your world in this [[moment]]. This is the [[pace]] of [[Paradise]]; it is demanding, but it is [[liberating]], [[invigorating]]; [[challenging]] perhaps, but it is a [[source]] of [[joy]]. The [[impulse]] to [[advance]] does not come from outside of you as if some hard taskmaster was cracking a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whip whip] instilling [[fear]] of your failure to move sufficiently. Far from it, and what a [[change]] of [[orientation]] this is for your world.

Release any [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compulsive_behavior compulsions] of [[fear]] and live into the [[bounty]] of [[faith]]. The [[invitation]] to advance in this [[light]] is [[continual]], but it is characterized by [[love]], [[encouragement]] to open yourselves more fully to the [[beneficence]] of [[our Father]]’s [[love]]. For you see it is his [[desire]] to give you as much of his [[joy]] as you can [[receive]].

(The [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rigor rigor]) of your [[evolutionary]] [[experience]] is (great) particularly in this world and worlds such as this one; making [[profound]] [[adjustments]] in basic [[orientation]] is [[challenging]] and such [[adjustments]] are only possible because of the [[resilience]] of [[our Father]]’s [[Thought Adjuster|spirit]] living within his [[children]], and to the extent there are his children who would yield fully to this [[buoyancy]] of [[spirit]], there is nothing that can hold you down. There is nothing that can put you down, indeed all the [[waves]] that [[appear]] so [[adverse]] to your [[material]] conditions (emerge as) [[stimulus]] to [[discover]] this ever present [[buoyancy]] of [[spirit]].

This is your [[status]] as a [[child]] of [[God]] seeking extension, [[simply]] this. [[Rest]] in the [[First Source|source]] of this [[light]] as often as you [[wish]], and we would [[encourage]] you evermore. The more you rest in this, the more you know the [[truth]] of who you are.
