Lesson
We would speak with you this evening regarding adventure. You know in your text that you have embarked upon an adventure. It tells you so and you believe it, but when you have set out upon your adventure, you find yourselves, perhaps, on occasion, involved in a life experience which is unfamiliar and the adventurous aspects are disturbing for you miss the security of that which is already known and understood. My friends, your adventure in the spirit and in your ascension will be on-going for many cycles of realization and you will become accustomed to these times in your life when you find the thrill of adventure a little more overwhelming than you bargained for.
Now is the time for you to walk in faith, for you to have faith not only in the intellectual realms of your mind but in the living of it. The quality of living faith is very real and requires of you a performance that may not feel right and natural to you at first but which will feel right and natural as you pick up confidence in your new level of appreciation for the life adventure presented to you and for you. Now is the time also, as you adapt to your new plateau of living faith, to ground yourself in your understanding of your reality through greater connection to the Father through conscientious Stillness. Seek confirmation from the Father that you are on the right path. Ask Him to attend to you and to go with you into your unknown realm of experience.
Eternally will the Father precede you, and, as is said by Michael himself, "I will prepare the way for you," and so, my friends, believe with your deep heart that when you are being led into realms of adventure that give you pause to wonder what you are about, begin now to believe in your faith path and believe in the divine plan which will lead you forward. In due course your faith will open doors for others, but do not burden yourself with an overbearing sense of responsibility for others when you are feeling unsure of yourself. Allow the Father to bolster your confidence levels. Allow yourself to grow into your choice, your choice to allow Him to lead the way for you into your new growth experience. This is the adventure. This is the supreme adventure which will carry you all the way to Paradise.
The text discusses the human dilemma of a need for security. The security of what you know in this world will not further your security in that which you cannot know except by faith. Be patient with yourself as you begin to appreciate the thrill of the adventure, and know that you will be developing cosmic wisdom as you set out and as you conquer these experiences which require your living faith. In this way you will be able to be a greater beacon of light and of essential service to your brethren who follow and who flank you with fellowship as they also embark upon and pursue the eternal career.
