Session

Lesson

Thought Adjuster: “As you get to know your Father your love for Him will become greater as well as your gratitude for His goodness without parallel. When you comprehend better the magnitude of His Divine Love you can only feel touched and fortunate. All these sensations are spontaneous expressions of gratitude. This is why gratitude is a sign of spiritual growth. You cannot feel gratitude for things you don’t understand – a forced gratitude or a duty – but you feel spontaneous gratitude when you start perceiving the greatness of everything that is done for you and everything that has been prepared for your benefit.

“In general, the fruits of spirit cannot be forced in human experience. True peace, love for your siblings, and gratitude for the gift of life, are spiritual expressions that must arise spontaneously in the souls of human beings. The fruits of spirit are promoters of spiritual growth – motivators – and also evidence of that same progress. Those who have started to feel in their souls how fortunate they are for being, have experienced this truth and have started to reap the spiritual seeds they planted in the past.

“This is how spiritual fruits can become a reality in the lives of human beings, by planting the spiritual seeds first. These seeds are faith and later the desire to know the Father. Through faith the doors are opened to receive divine inspiration and the guidance of the Inner Teacher – your Thought Adjuster (TA). When you attempt to know your Father better you start discovering little by little the grace of His divine personality and start experiencing His love. This unleashes in a creature the desire to be increasingly better, since this is the goal engraved in your being by the TA – the purpose of your life – to become more like the Father in heaven.

“Faith causes a series of events, realizations, and revelations that transform an exclusively material individual into a being of spiritual light. Faith is simply the curiosity that searches with the hope of finding something and it finally finds it, because the Father works daily inside the hearts and the minds or each one of His children to reveal Himself with increasing plenitude and give His children everything they can receive. Faith is not a blind and forced belief. Faith is a key that opens a fountain of blessings and grace that transform a human personality into an increasingly faithful expression of the divine original personality.”
