Thank-you for your loving correction. This truth forum is a learning place, to learn to use the "Force of Love" in this case learning humility, remaining teachable.
Luke 6:40 The disciple is not above his Master: but every one that is perfect shall be AS his Master.

1 Peter 2:15 For so is the Will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:
2:16 As free, and not using [your] liberty for a cloke of maliciousness, but as the servants of God.
2:17 Honour all [men]. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the King (God).

Thanking Father and The Master for Their real Love, loving correction and teachings, and each of you for the tender loving warmth that surrounds us here, for the words shared that reach to soul depths untouched before, springing forth to new Life, a rapture of pure love and joy that only our beloved Christ Jesus can gift, is breath taking. There is so much to be thankful for.
John 17:11; 17:21-23 17:11– And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to Thee. Holy Father, keep through Thine own name those whom Thou hast given me, that they may be ONE, as We [are]. 17:21– That they all may be one; as Thou, Father, [art] in me, and I in Thee, that they also may be one in Us: that the world may believe that Thou hast sent me. 17:22–And the glory which Thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as We are One: 17:23– I in them, and Thou in me, that they may be made perfect in ONE; and that the world may know that Thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as Thou hast loved me.
Love and laugh. Make your world the happier for your being in it. Love and rejoice on the grey days.
There are wilderness days for My disciples as well as mountains of transfiguration, but on both it is duty, persistently, faithfully done, that tells.
Be gentle with all. Strive to see the heart I see, to know the pain and difficulty of the other life, that I know. Strive, before you interview anyone, or speak to anyone, to ask Me to act as interpreter between you two.
Just live in the spirit of prayer. In speaking to Me, you find soul-rest. Simple tasks, faithfully done and persisted in, bring their own reward, and are mosaics being laid in the pavement of success.
Seek and ye shall find. Shall find that inner knowledge that makes the problems of life plain.
The difficulties of life are caused by disharmony in the individual. There is no discord in My Kingdom, only a something unconquered in My disciples. The rule of My Kingdom is perfect order, perfect harmony, perfect supply, perfect love, perfect honesty, perfect obedience - all power, all conquest, all success.
But so often My servants lack power, conquest, success, supply, harmony, and think I fail in My promises because these are not manifested in their lives.
These are but the outward manifestations that result from the obedience, honesty, order, love - and they come, not in answer to urgent prayer, but naturally as light results from a lighted candle.
