GC: In appreciation of the help that has been given the soul of [378], through this channel, we ask that it be continued - and urge him to have faith in his desire for his home.
-
EC: Yes. Come! Why dost thou rebel against those impulses that arise? Why dost thou continue in subjugating the better self, in making for those effects that will weaken those desires?
-
Let rather this as He gave fill thine self, thine mind, thine body, to the desire to put same into action:
-
“I will arise and go, trusting in the Father and His promises that though I wander far afield, though I have erred in word and act, I will accept that forgiveness and make the start to correct in myself in such a manner that I may claim those promises mine now.”
-
The way seems hard, and self will feel as a pressure - yet He will make thine heart glad, wilt thou but come.
-
Yield not to self, but rather to that desire that is growing in thee to be with and among those that love thee best.
-
COME! He will not forsake thee, and thou wilt not walk alone! He will guide thee, and protect thee!
-
Be not overcome, but overcome with the good that He will do in thee.
-
We are through.
-
(Then, in such an undertone, just could hear it, “His cough is bad.”)
[When EC awoke he put his hand to his head, saying he felt like there was something on it.]
