Thought Adjuster: “You must put aside all expectations. You don’t know what will happen, so it would be best not to expect anything. Trying to adjust your experiences to your pre-conceived ideas may only lead to confusion. Right now you are receiving. It is a co-creative process where ideas from ‘above’ are interpreted in the light of your experiences, and expressed in your words.
“Writing down the ideas as they come has worth. A lot of information can be transmitted in this way. However, there are more efficient ways. For your personal development it is better to keep practicing stillness, where ideas and concepts can be transmitted from mind to mind, without the need of interpretation. Feelings do not fit on paper, but writing still has a lot of worth. You have already used this resource to help others, and you can keep doing it.
“How much do you want to advance? That depends on you. As long as you learn to listen to the internal Guide, and follow His inspiration a lot can be achieved. He has the scheme and the plans for the best life you can live. If you follow the inspiration of your heart, you will get close to the original plans for you. The Father’s presence knows what you need, and knows your potentials better than you do. You can go very far by following the suggestions from inside. The curriculum is simple. Learn to listen to you inner Voice, and remove everything that is preventing this communication. Nothing will be denied. Open your door and I will go inside, turning your home into a brilliant palace. Let me work for you. So far my work has been at the unconscious level, and look how far you have come.
“You are always asking yourself how you ended up being like you are, in spite of the less than ideal conditions in which you grew up. You have perceived that a lot of things needed to be improved upon, and you have done that. You know your errors and limitations. They are normal, and even natural, but now you know you can do better. Set your mind in order. Give me the initiative and together we will turn that ‘animal mind’ into something more dignified. Your mind has served you well so far, but as the world is being shaken to accept the changes and improvements of a new era, and your mind should do the same. The old paradigms will not work with the new ways of thinking. The process will take some time, depending on how much you resist it. It will not be easy. There are some ideas that are very dear to you that must be let go of. You will know which ones they are. The hard part is not finding what should change, and what should be removed. The problem, the difficulty, and the delays come from resisting the change, doubts, fears. Learn to trust this process, and once a habit, and an idea, do not make sense anymore, let them go without ceremony. Think of them as steps on the ladder that helped you ascend, but they are no longer needed.
“Remember that you feel the need to get in touch with the Spirit world. You have a hunger for improving yourself, and you are feeling the need to be of service to your brothers and sisters. Do I need to say wherefrom these impulses come? Accept them, go with the flow, and I will put everything in place for your abilities to be employed, as they are employed now. Do you realize that you are here because of a response to your desires? Somehow you have listened, and you are beginning to understand that when you do listen to Me, a true happiness grows in you. This is how this road is traveled. If you keep following this road your trust in Me will grow. We are one, even when you need to speak to Me in the second person. Some day (and it is already so) you will not know if your thoughts are yours or Mine, because our minds will be one, and what a great mind it will be!” [[Category: Practice]
