CHRIST MICHAEL - JULY 19, 2004
The first part of the transmission was recorded over due
to changing batteries. The first part of the lesson was to
inspire the students to beam hope into the people Michael
and Mother bring to them. The importance of this was to feed
people with the spiritual quality they need when the world
around them becomes too confusing or frightening because
of the social and other changes that are coming down the
road.
There were several exercises to practice connecting with
hope. Michael first addressed the students by advising them
that they need much hope for themselves before beaming it
into others or the tendency to be influenced by the fear
or confusion mentality would lead them into a place where
they would not be of service to others. Once a person is
firmly anchored in hope for himself or herself, then that
individual can beam Michael's hope into the other person.
Also addressed was the quality of hope that not only inspires
and brings an awareness of something better into a person,
but that it is actually something that catalyzes an individual's
faith by instilling the desire for a better way of life.

Michael: When you have individuals before you who query
you why they should have hope when everything looks frightening
and disruptive around them, lead them into that place inside
of their heart. Encourage them to find that place that longs
for a better way, a better life filled with peace, comfort,
a centeredness and wholeness. Encourage them to feel the
desire for this for themselves as well as for the entire
world. Encourage them, after they have tapped into this yearning,
to trust this. At this point, beam hope into them. Let their
soul feed upon it to nourish their minds, giving them something
new, something positive and encouraging to look forward to.
Your words will have an effect to some degree, but when
people are frightened, words tend to be disconnecting because
the emotional component of the individual is more dominant.
A soothing touch, the energetic bond that you create through
the beaming of hope, is what will quiet the emotions and
stir in the soul. You could give them many reasons why they
should hope, but if their minds are disconnected in their
thinking because fear is too overwhelming for them, then
you must use a different means of communication.
This is one of the reasons we are building you in these
exercises now to increase your communication skills at the
spiritual level. You will be very well pleased with how you
see them respond if you give them enough time and spend enough
time with them to allow the hope to take root and begin to
build. Make yourselves available to the ones who come to
you. Sometimes you will feel you have the time for them;
other times you will feel constrained by the activities of
the day you are engaged in. But do your best each day to
be mindful of the opportunities that come your way. Encourage
and stimulate yourselves each day to be presented with new
opportunities. Spend time in the opportunity when you recognize
it as such in allowing the fullness to unfold and for you
to experience it more deeply than you have already.
As you grow into the mind of service, you will find your
antennae for opportunities to move you into new directions
throughout your day. While you all must stay involved in
the tasks at hand in order to satisfy the requirements of
your material life, begin to notice the antennae for service.
Feel the direction you are being gently guided into. This
will be a gradual awareness, and it will not be something
that you find burdensome, choreful. It will lighten your
day and give new meaning to what you accomplish in the day,
taking you out of the monotony of some of the things you
do into a place of great joy in knowing that you have achieved
something valuable, laudable, commendable in the life of
another person.
Allow yourself the latitude to be in these exchanges with
your brothers and sisters for as long as they need to be.
Be patient with them. And be patient with yourselves as you
tune yourself to these service opportunities. Once again,
let these words settle into you, allow your Mother to weave
them into you to build this foundation within you. Relax
and breathe into her, and let your Mother envelope you in
my words, in my presence, in my truth-light. (Pause)
I will address your comments or questions on this evening's
lesson when you are ready to bring them to me.
Student: Jesus, I have often felt that faith was a constant,
but hope seems to be an inspiration of the soul (recorder
battery went out but the question was about when does hope
become more sure)
Michael: There is a dynamic relationship between hope and
faith. As you grow into your experiences where your faith
is confirmed, the light that paves the way moves you into
an anticipation of the future bright with promise and new
opportunities of growth and service. This is a component
of the quality of hope. The certainty that you seek is primarily
a component of faith. Hope will always be a necessary ingredient
to catalyze your faith, to stimulate it, to move you forward;
in the attainment of the ideal there must be something good
and beautiful and true that attracts your soul. One of these
soul attractors is hope.
After you become more embodied in your faith composure,
you will understand and see and know that hope is moving
you forward to the new ways. But do not become so jaded or
take things for granted that the certainty is something that
brings into the human mind a sense of complacency. You will
always be challenged, and for a time there will be some doubt,
or perhaps a more mild word to use is question, about where
it is where you are being led. This is part of the mind trying
to gain control. Put this aside. Stay in the hope; stay in
the faith pull, and you will gain a greater sense of composure
which leads to this surety and certainty that you wish to
achieve.
And allow these words now to grow within you, my son. You
have a strong desire. Feel your desire. Feel your desire
to live in faith. As you feel this desire to live in faith,
will you know where you are being led? You may respond to
me with that answer.
Student: Yes, it would certainly improve.
Michael: Well, my son, I would ask you to look at this from
the standpoint that you will not always know where you are
being led. Is that not the discovery?
Student: Yes, I feel that a lot with my Thought Adjuster.
Michael: Allow the moments of unknowing to be stimulating
to this growing awareness of hope. You will always be led
to something that will be of great value to you. Great value!
But will you always know and understand and see if at the
time? Sometimes you will; sometimes you will wait and the
lesson will ring true and hit home at a later date. But if
you can mentally adopt this position of knowing that everything
that happens will produce good fruits of the spirit in you,
even though you do not know how or when or why, that hope
brings a greater certainty, quiets the mind, soothes the
intellect and stimulates your faith. Be in the mystery. And
you will gain greater depths of faith concomitantly with
the hope you need to keep you moving forward.
Ponder these words in the coming days. Re-read them and
let them go deep within as you meditate. Always know and
always feel my peace within you, my son.
Student: Michael, I had an experience with people I wish
to bring about. One is a lady I spoke to yesterday and she
was deeply agitated about what is going on in the world.
So much so and filled with despair to the point of being
paranoid that she herself is being watched and her phone
tapped, etc. We have discussed what is going on in the world
over the past few months at different intervals, and I have
always tried to express to her to keep things in perspective
and to keep the balance in that perspective. And for the
dark side, there is the light side, to breathe in the air
and remember the moments, as you have said to me, to experience
the sunlight and breath and nature around us. She allowed
that to happen to a point, but she was still holding on to
despair. When we parted I prayed for her that she would be
appeased in her mind and heart. Is there any advise you can
give to me to help her with her agitation, and not to minimize
her own feelings of despair? Because sometimes we do do that
when we listen to other people - we minimize what is going
on in their lives.
Michael: But this is precisely why we are instructing you
in a form of spirit communication that is beyond words. Your
words will evoke defensive postures in individuals. Think
about this. She is not so much wanting to be appeased in
her mind as she is expressing deep soulful concerns. It is
not your responsibility to appease her in this way. Do you
understand this, my son?
Student: Yes, I do. Is it to instill in a quiet way what
we have been talking about the past two times - hopefulness?
That there is a light at the end of the tunnel?
Michael: Allow her to express her feelings to you if this
is something you wish to provide for her: a safe, non-judgmental
environment within which she can share her fears and concerns.
As she expresses them, what will you bring into her? More
words, more ideas to consider that will disconnect her thinking?
Or will you bring in my hope, my love through your stabilized
intention to soulfully minister to her. It is your choice.
You can counsel her with your words, but as you have said,
she still felt despair. And would you not have wished her
to leave your encounter fully at peace and with a renewed
sense of freedom? (Yes)
What my children need now is for someone to listen to them
: to hear their pleas of pain. You are here to comfort them
through applying my presence into them. And as we said to
you when we began these exercises that this will take many
many months of practice for you to gain a greater strength
within your own mind of what you are doing as you minister
to my children who are in great need. But settle this in
your mind now: you are here to listen to them, to bring my
love into them through your soulful attempts to help them.
Your soul filled with my love imbued with hope: your Mother
will bring this into them. All you have to do is want to
do this for them. That is your work. You can engage your
intellect if you wish, and I think you are all now finding
that this approach is far less effective than what you are
beginning to learn and eventually master.
Student: It's like we offer them a safe place for them to
express their deepest fears and despairs as we come from
this place of authenticity of truth and love.
Michael: And have you not found that place here when you
come to the meetings? You can express your fears and concerns
to me, not only here but at all times. So many of my children
know me not, have not this awareness of this place within
them. You are offering this to them. This is what they need
most now. And you will feed them what they do not even know
is missing from their lives. What greater service can you
provide to them?
D, your heart is very open. Allow it to open even further.
The more you open your heart and let me flow into it, the
more will you be able to express my love to my children who
I bring before you. You will give them great comfort and
peace. And I know, as you know, you have asked for this.
Student: I can see it happening. People have said they have
felt good and comfortable in being around me. It's not
something I think about and my heart is excited for the prospect
of deepening my soulful connection to you and the place of
truth within myself and the universe. I just have to be more
patient with myself and others.
Michael: Be more focused on bringing my love to my children
rather than what it is that you wish to accomplish with your
life, for in so doing you will find all that which you have
sought and continue to seek.
Student: I see that more and more.
Michael: And be in my peace, my son.
My children, as we take you deeper into these exercises
to express our love to our children, seek not to identify
with the spoken word as much in your ministrations as it
is to be a pure conduit of hope. You can sit in this energy
of love and beam it all around you. As the energy grows around
you, so will the mind become wrapped in the language of love
encircling in those centers within you to speak my words
to my children. Your minds are all being re-encircuited to
learn new ways, and so while these new ways are being taught,
know that you are not expected to do them perfectly or masterfully.
Only embrace these ideas and these words we say to you and
ingest them and let them imprint upon you. Practice, practice,
and practice as much as you can each day through the opportunities
that are presented to you. It is time to disengage the intellect
in communicating these awareness with one another. It is
time to beam my love.
As the days of uncertainty mount, come to me more and more
in your own inner turmoil. Ask for more hope to be imprinted
within you. You will need this, my children! You have not
all grown so much as to be tempted and succumb to these fears.
They will not be as troubling as they once were for you.
Simply turn your focus within, take a deep breath as your
Mother enters you and brings you to me so my hope can infuse
you, renew you, and bring you peace.
So I leave you this evening in this fashion. My peace is
all around you. Be embraced in my love. Good evening, my
beloved children.
