Chapter 6:

My Promises I Have Kept

<< Previous | Home | Next >>

1. MY PROMISES have I kept: my love hath been with you when your moments were darkest.

2. When ye hear not my voice, then am I closest to you, then do my thoughts and my love most yearn to reach you because of the pain of the disappointment that rendeth you.

3. More and more clearly shalt ye hear me until that day when there will no longer be need of words between us: verily I shall speak within your hearts and ye shall know my voice and there shall be no more veils that divide us.

4. Until that day, go bravely, go faithfully; constantly your pathways shall lose their steepness, your strength will grow greater, your burdens shall grow lighter, until your eyes shall be unstopped and ye shall see that ye see.

5. Then will there be no more doubtings or shadows of doubtings.

6. Until that moment, hold fast to faith, hold fast to love, hold fast to joy, no matter what experience cometh upon you, no matter what darkness maketh you a quaking.

7. Be sure that just beyond the borders of that darkness is the light of eternity struggling to break through, and that within your heart is my love, struggling to make you see it.

8. In fatigue of mind ye are spent and exhausted; mind and body give a treason; the soul of itself is unable to function; emotion is barren in strivings of Spirit.

9. I say ye do learn lessons of that emotional control which meaneth not encompassment but radiant liberation.

10. Emotion must become a fixed and steady state of peace, with rare moments of ecstasy not possible to flesh unless under pressure of joy that ennobleth.

11. I bid that ye rest: let the body know repose.

12. I do love mine own because they are mine own, never so much as in those hours when weakness embattleth them.

13. Such hours once drove me into the wilderness that I might rise once more above the limitations of my flesh.

14. Ye have in your hearts denied me over many long years of this earthly visitation, but there hath been no moment when my love hath not been with you.

15. If ye do but remember that there is no human problem that I do not understand, and that to understand all is to forgive all, it will help you to Peace.

16. I say, draw a line that is clear between faith that is spiritual and mortal credulity; side by side they may dwell because the function of the heart is to believe and to know, while the function of the mind is to question, to investigate, to make attempts to prove.

17. Only when the mind is used as instrument for setting currents of constructive thought in motion for achievement of a purpose, doth doubt become destructive.

18. Why think ye that flesh developed a mechanism of reasoning brain if not for high employment?

19. If ye were rewarded in this single earthly life according to your just deserts, verily would flesh defeat its mortal purpose;

20. Flesh cometh and goeth but the spirit stayeth on, conscious of its high intent, delving in experience, being both the conqueror and the conquered, for thus it is written that experience cometh.

21. I adjure you to remember that ye do sow what ye wouldst reap, ye do reap what ye have sown, not alone in one life but in countless other lives whose formings are but memories.

22. Thus taught I to the prophets but the world would have none of it, being weary with experiencings.

23. Can we blame men for that?

24. Lives without number have ye led; Spirit goeth into flesh and Spirit cometh out; again and again Spirit goeth into flesh and Spirit cometh out;

25. But ever is it Spirit, watching, observing, beholding all things well.

26. Harken and I teach you as I spake unto the prophets: observe and be wise, for it behooveth you to know that others have trod the Path before you and would call to you now from the heights of their attainings.

27. I address you again: I say, it is possible.

28. Man cometh and goeth in his flesh that he may learn lessons, verily of his flesh, verily of his Spirit; be not as those who say, It is not so; I tell you they speak from the clamorings of their ignorance.

29. Did I not say unto men: Elias hath come already, and they understood me not, though I spake of John the Baptist?

30. How spake I then of John the Baptist as Elias come again, if Spirit goeth not into flesh times and again, and cometh out times, and times and one more?

31. Hear my words, beloved, and be among the wise ones.

32. Only the wicked say, It is not so, fearing that they be come again and their deeds may find them out.

33. Of this did I minister; of such did I instruct;

34. But the spirits of men were perverse in that generation even as of yours; they did say, He speaketh to us of madness.

35. Behold, I spake no madness: I spake in the truth, but they feared the truth even as they did fear me who brought it to them, in that I brought it.

36. Arise and be wise: put off the ragged garment of ignorance; know the secret of life's mystery; know this sojourn in flesh, the part of many sojourns, why man cometh in and whence he goeth out.

37. It is meet that ye know these matters to enhance your understanding of the flesh wherein ye dwell: for is it not a garment? do ye not put it on? do ye not put it off?

38. How say ye, There is no garment, finding yourselves within it yet apart from it, functioning?

39. Consider these pregnancies.

40. I bless you and I love you, and ye canst no more depart from that love than your finger can depart of its will from the hand that maketh writings.

41. Ye are within me, and I within you; so hath it ever been; so must it be till the Father doth summon us.

42. The teacher teacheth, and the disciple learneth: thus is it written.
