Lesson

My friends, I am Aaron. We are with you. We know you have various questions about the state of politics, of the future of your world and your own perspectives on your personal growth.

This time is significant, for it allows the opportunity for choices to be made. What are the values that you hold and how do your choices align with those values? This is a true quest and test, regardless of whether you are thinking about elections, or looking at every aspect of your life. To say you believe in love and truth and peace is easy, is it not? But to truly intend and manifest those values is another thing entirely.

Recognize that when people make choices that are incompatible with their values, this is a conflict against the fabric of reality. During the outset of the Lucifer rebellion, the initial choices by many were based on emotion and ease and alignment, not with the higher values, but with those who were in proximity. For many, this pattern of behavior and the decisions to choose based upon factors other than the truth and what is good, was the beginning of a subtle shifting of the mind's alignment away from reality - the very reality that stands at the center of all things.

If one wants beauty and chooses something that is ugly in the hopes that it will produce beauty, then they have fallen prey to a sort of slippery slope of making choices outside of the realm of reality, outside of the realm of rationality, in the hopes that somehow this ugly thing can eventually lead them toward something beautiful. You have heard it said that a good tree cannot produce bad fruit and a bad tree cannot produce good fruit and yet, so often in the lives of many, there is this subtle shifting of loyalties away from the deeply held values that one would hope they might aspire to, toward those other realities lurking underneath, the ones that perhaps satisfy darker aims or choices outside of the questions of what is true, beautiful and good.

Recognize you are animals and there are many animalistic tendencies that you must master if you would align with the higher realities of the spirit. One of the hardest things to do is to be honest with yourself about what it is that motivates you, because there are various factors pulling at you that can cause you to rationalize choices that are not in association with the truth, beauty and goodness that you theoretically hold dear. You have also heard it said that the price of admission to the spiritual life often means to let go of some thing that you hold dear, but that is incompatible with what brings truth, beauty and goodness.

The question for each is what thing or things are there that would cause you to stumble away from making the natural choices in association with your Adjuster that lead to manifesting truth, beauty and goodness? These are the challenges and questions worth exploring and worth confronting as you look at the world, as you look at elections, and as you look at your lives and know where you might fall short of your highest ideals.

The great challenge is to make choices in alignment with truth, beauty and goodness. Anything that causes you not to do this is something that exists as a sort of challenge to you to make a higher decision, to let go of what does not serve you, what does not serve others, in favor of that which does. The most effective ministers are those who are able to embody the values they have come to understand in such a manner that those values become an incorporated reality in their life, in their activities.

Contemplate this when you make your decisions for how you would proceed in any area, whether it would be your personal choices each day, whether it be when you choose your leaders, or whether it be in your ministerial efforts to bring about a positive flow and environment.

I hope these ideas can help you as you contemplate the various factors manifesting themselves in your life and in the choices that will be made in the times ahead. Thank you for your openness and inquiry.
