I am here, Jesus.
Let me write a line for I see that you are desirous to hear from
me and obtain the encouragement that always flows from my communications.
I have been with you tonight as during many nights passed with the
desire to write you upon subjects important to the work that you
are to do and was prevented from doing so only by the condition
in which you were that prevented me from making the rapport.
As I have told you before, we are governed by law in regards to
the kind of messages that we may communicate to you and unless you
are in condition that will permit these laws to be complied with
we are powerless to use your brain for the purpose of delivering
our messages. You also know what the remedy is for the defect that
may exist at any particular time and we have urged upon you to seek
this remedy and thereby get in the proper and necessary condition
that will enable us to make the rapport.
But you have not been successful in applying the remedy, not because
it is not available to you, but because of your course of thought
and failure to pray to the Father for an inflowing of His Love into
your soul and thereby causing the proper influence to be caused
upon your brain which will enable us to take possession of its functioning
and deliver the messages that we have to communicate. You are in
better condition tonight than you have been for some time and I
hope that you will continue to think of these spiritual truths and
pray to the Father and if you do this we shall soon succeed in writing
to you many of the truths that we are so anxious to communicate.
There are very many of these truths yet to be revealed to you,
some of far greater importance than you have already received except
those relating to the Divine Love, and we are anxious that you receive
them as rapidly as possible for they are needed by mankind and many
souls are longing for the truth that can only be made known through
you.
So my brother, think deeply of what I have said and let your work
be to you the most important thing in your life. As you know you
have only a few years yet to live and if you do not do our work
it may be that a lifetime will elapse before we may be able to get
another who shall have the qualifications that are required. You
sometimes, I know, realize the importance of your work but lately
and more often you let your thoughts turn to and become absorbed
in things that are of the mere mortal life and as a consequence
the greater things are put aside and neglected. I like (trust) that this
may not continue. We will be with you and give you all the help
that is possible for us to give and hope that from now on it may
be successful.
Tonight I will not write upon any subject of a formal character
and wish to say that we are ready to continue our messages and are
dependent only upon you getting in the condition that will enable
us to do so.
So think of what I write and pray earnestly to the Father and you
will be able to overcome this inclination to lower your thoughts
to these material things. We understand just what you need to enable
you to turn your life on earth and as we have told you these things
shall be provided and you will not be compelled to suffer for anything
of this nature that is necessary for your comfort or living. Only
trust in us and do the work instead of thinking of these things.
I will come soon and write another message that will be of importance
and far reaching with its effect upon the belief of men. Many spirits
are with you watching over you and ready to help. You must believe
this and act on that belief.
Well, as I have said, it is because of your want of condition and
the spirit who moves your pencil are those who merely have the desire
to write and are not presently to do so. Your guide, the Indian, is
a very careful guardian and will not permit many of them to intervene
but occasionally he does let one write so that you may know that
there are many spirits surrounding you ready to take advantage of
the opportunity to write.
But until our work is accomplished this kind of spirit will not
be permitted to write. You will remember that sometime ago we suddenly
stopped the spirit in darkness from writing you and asking your
help. This was done not that we did not want these spirits to get
all the help possible, but because the work that we are doing are
just now of more importance to humanity as well as to spirits, and
every other kind of communication must be stopped in order that
our work shall proceed. Then you will see how important the work
is for ordinarily nothing is of so much importance as the rescuing
of a soul from sin and ignorance. I will not write more tonight.
Yes, I will pray with you and I hope that you will let all the
longings of your soul enter into your prayers for the greater the
longing the greater will be the abundance of the love received in
answer to your prayers. I will come soon, good night.
Your brother and friend,
Jesus
