GRACE, the Gift of the Third Realm
Beloved Maha Chohan
March 21, 1966
From the Realm of the Holy Spirit I look with love and hope upon the hearts of incarnate lifestreams, and my chelas particularly. Within the chalice of each blessed heart burns the Immortal Flame of God. The development and maturing of that Flame is our reason for devoting our Energies to the Planet Earth.
Finding ways and means by which we of the Spiritual Hierarchy may stimulate that spiritual nature fills our hours with happiness, purpose and delight. For what greater joy than to "be about the Father's Business", no matter what the service in his name may be!
I found, long before my Freedom, that the consecration of my energies each day to doing the Will of God filled me with a sense of Sacred Inner Happiness, and that as I moved among the mundane ways of Earth, strange and beautiful opportunities unfolded in my Path by his Love and his Grace that I might utilize my life in spreading his Kingdom. Sad the soul when opportunity does not knock, but sadder still when opportunity is not seen for the tears of self that dim the eye.
Grace is the Gift of the Third Realm particularly. How many expressions have Grace? The aspirant who loves to perform his adorations has Grace, for each such one there are a thousand who perform their services in dearth of happiness for duty's sake. The mother who loves to create a home is filled with Grace, as against the millions who serve for duty's sake. The chelas who love to hear the Will of God through us, and manifest it through the talents, gifts and substance of their worlds, are filled with Grace, as against the many who serve for fear or duty's sake. The man to whom self denial and self correction is an action of love is filled with Grace.
For all those whose position in the universe is endured, I pray for Grace that they may consider that position an opportunity to widen the Borders of the Kingdom where they abide. Filled with Grace, each action becomes a joy, each soul a lovely commission from God's Heart.
You will note that we bring the Virtue of Grace to your attention from time to time, and our efforts are most fruitful, for the expansion of that requisite is noticeable in your lifestreams.
Blessings, dear chelas and commendation on a development of Grace of nature which supersedes the 'intellectual acumen' which is a fine servant, but a foolish master!
In Spiritual Brotherhood, "I AM"
