Lesson

Thought Adjuster: “Spiritual strength is the only transformative agent that can truly elevate human beings above their limitations. Spiritual strength can manifest itself through the creature's desire to be better each time, but only when this desire becomes a firm commitment, and the creature truly begins to love spiritual things does spiritual strength become present in this individual's experience.

When a soul filled with human weaknesses and character flaws begins to strive for improvement, it will undoubtedly face these weaknesses and flaws. Only spiritual strength can motivate the creature to start ascending the seemingly endless mountain of their human limitations. Those who seek to better themselves must rely on their human will, but those who have truly discovered the Father in their lives and through the love they have experienced sincerely desire to resemble Him, find that the obstacles that once seemed impossible to overcome have now lost much of their power.

Human will is fragile and subject to material nature. Spiritual will—inspired by the presence of God in man—is of eternal nature and can focus the powers of the mind and will to aspire to higher and more beautiful goals. A human being can only transcend their material origin by reaching out to spiritual levels. Those who struggle within the mud remain in the mud, but those who extend their hand to One offering help from beyond human confusion will discover how easy it is to leave the mud of their own shortcomings and stand on the shores of a new path leading to perfection.

The Master said that spiritual things are not loved after they are discovered; rather, one must love spiritual things first to be able to discover them. Love is a powerful motivator to attract the things that your soul truly needs to grow. As love becomes an expression of gratitude to the Father and supreme trust in His guidance, your attention will become increasingly attuned to discovering the spiritual treasures that the Father has placed within you. Only in this way can you become increasingly the best you can be, a being increasingly perfect, a more faithful reflection of the Creator of love, the Father of all personalities.”
