Dialogue
Receiver: “How could I know if I am doing what I must be doing? I worry that the Father might be expecting that I am to do one thing, while I am distracted, and doing something else.”
Teacher: “Dear child, the Creator never wants you to do something specific with your life. He doesn’t want you to waste your time, but many ways of expression are open for your personality to develop spiritually. The only commandment, the only requirement, is to ‘be perfect as your Father in heaven is perfect.’ The progressive expression of perfection does not require you to fulfill a specific task.
“Everyone is free to live his or her life any way he or she wants. What matters is what you are becoming. The important thing is to be, not to do. This is why you should not judge another by the type of work they perform. The medic who heals thousands is no more valuable than the person who cleans the building where you work. The task each one performs has nothing to do with individual spiritual progress, which is the only measure of how close a person is to God.
“As you keep mastering the art of living according to the Father’s will, His presence inside you will let you know that you are moving forward. You will start feeling lasting happiness and calmness, regardless of what happens around you. You will start feeling that you need less to live a fulfilling life, while material things lose their importance and their influence over you. You will also start to feel an increasing need to do something for your siblings in this world, because the love of the Father will start to overflow from your heart, and seek expression beyond yourself.
Closing
“Remember that a most spiritually advanced man ever alive reached the top expectation for mortal life living as a simple carpenter, while many philosophers, writers, and leaders never even started to grasp the true purpose of life: to search for perfection in our personality while discovering our Creator within ourselves, and within our brothers and sisters in this world.”
