I am here, Your own true and loving Helen.
Well, my dear, the spirits who desire to write to you of the higher
truths did not think it best to attempt to write tonight, and hence
you got no response from them. They say that you were not then in
condition to receive their messages and that it was not advisable
to try to convey any to you. But many of them were present, trying
to throw around you their influence of love and help, and I know
that as the evening progressed you felt their presence.
I am glad that you have the Master's
Prayer to help you and open up your soul to the inflowing of
the Love of the Father. It is a wonderful prayer, and as you repeat
it with all your sincere soul desires, you will find that peace
will come to you and the very presence of the Divine Love will be
felt in your soul. So try to learn the prayer and offer it up to
the Father, not only at night when you are ready to retire, but
during the day, and especially when you feel gloomy and downcast,
for the results will do you much good. It will bring to you the
presence of this Love and, also, the higher spirits who possess
so much of it, and the rapport will enable you to realize that there
are spirits hovering around, and such spirits as will cause you
much happiness and peace. So remember what I advise, and give your
aspirations to the offering of the prayer, and to the hope that
with you may abound this Love in all its fullness.
Oh, my dear, when I think of how blessed you are in having conferred
upon you this great mission, I can hardly realize that it is true,
yet I know that it is, and that you should feel so thankful to the
Master, as I do. No other has had such a privilege conferred upon
him and, of course, no other has such a responsibility; and when
this latter is considered, it seems that you will have to have the
sustaining influence and power of all the spirits who are in your
higher band, to enable you to do the work and not faint in its performance.
Jesus is with you and you will not be afraid that you will not succeed.
The way and the means will be provided, and the great truths will
be given you, and through you, to the world; and in the long future
men will learn the truth and thank the Father that it become possible
for His truths and the knowledge of His Great Love to be revealed
through the instrumentality of a mortal.
You may be forgotten, but your work will live forever, and men
and nations will experience the benefit of it and come closer to
the Father and closer to one another, as brothers. The nations will
necessarily be what the individuals who compose them are, and love
and peace will reign on earth, as the Master promised long years
ago, and as he promises now.
All will be fulfilled, and as the old prophet said, the desolate
places will bloom and blossom as the rose, but better than this,
in men's hearts and souls will come such love that every man will
truly become his brother's neighbor, and the great leaders of mankind
will realize their dream of the brotherhood of man.
In the near future the Master and the other spirits who have been
writing you the truths of the New Birth and of the higher things
that pertain to the souls of men, will write you as to the moral
precepts, and as to those things that will cause the development
of the natural love of men. And their teachings will be very interesting.
I have heard them talk of these things, and know that these truths
and teachings which relate to the moral development of men are a
part of the plan to be made known to you. So you see, you yet have
much work to do, and you must not think for a moment that you will
not get in condition, materially and spiritually, to do this great
work to its completion.
It has been decreed that you shall finish this work before you
come to the spirit world, and there will be no failure. It will
be that some obstacles will be met with, such as you are now encountering,
but after a little while they will disappear, and you will be free
to do your work without hindrance and in the way that you have so
often thought about.
Well, sweetheart, I have written a long letter tonight and I think
it best to stop, but before I do so, I desire to say to Your two
friends that their work is of like importance, and that the great
powers that are looking after and directing you are also looking
after them, and that their work will have to be done also. It is
a part of the great desire and plan that they shall perform their
missions, and that ways and means shall be provided by which they
will be enabled to accomplish the task set before them. So tell
them to take courage and believe what I here write, and know that
the Master and the higher spirits have decreed that they, also,
shall have a part in this glorious plan for the salvation of mankind,
and that nothing will be permitted to interfere with, or defeat,
them in their labors. They will have to remain mortals until their
work shall have been accomplished, and by that time they will have
such knowledge of the glories of the Heavenly life that they will
be anxious to hear the "Well done, good and faithful servants,"
and enter into the joys of the homes which have been prepared for
them. And when that time comes, there will be many in the spirit
world who will meet them, with hearts full of thankfulness and love,
and words of appreciation and greeting.
So tell them to keep up their faith and courage, and let not doubt
enter into their minds as to the fact that they are the chosen ones
also.
I must stop now.
So with my love, good night.
Your own true and loving
Helen
