Chapter 84:
Patience in Instructing
<< Previous | Home | Next >>
1. MY DEARLY BELOYED, I come unto you not as lord who cometh to a vassal but as one who loveth you and knoweth his welcome;
2. I am friend to the friendly; I am Master only because those who serve me, so address me;
3. I say unto you that I hold no rancor for that which is spoken in the wrath of impatience, when the impatience be alarm for the progress of the kingdom in men's hearts.
4. I tell you this to comfort your fears; I do know of your fears in present circumstance, yet I know also your fealty, that it cannot be disturbed.
5. Take no thought of small misgivings; let circumstance bear home to you the beauty of the care that is rendered unto you.
6. I beg that ye do hear me in the spirit of truth; for that purpose come I unto you that ye may know that the things which perplex you are sound in essence; they are honest perplexities, therefore do I answer them. . . .
7. Ye are sorely exercised that event disappointeth you; I say, it is grievous to the heart, yet have I not also known disappointment? have I not known delay? have I not said, How long, my Father, how long?
8. Would that I could lead the race out from its error in a twelvemonth; gladly would I pay with my life again, yea ten thousand times ten thousand lives, but men will not have it so, lacking understanding.
9. I blame them not for this; I wait with a patience which no man knoweth; but I see the goodly work going forward daily, being manifest, and I bide my time.
10. Harken, harken, to my voice: I come bringing you substance, I send dear ones unto you to counsel and protect you: wait on me as I must wait on men, thinking no evil of those who instruct you, being patient with men as with little children who do tricks of mischief, thinking it clever to be so employed.
11. Wait on me, my dear ones; be of goodly countenance; gird up your emotions; speak joyously of the fact that we can commune together by thought; let no untoward event mar your happiness in serving; live in beauteous respect, each for the other; counsel one another; hear one another's sufferings; lo, they vanish away as mists before the sun.
12. I tell you that I am grieved, grieved, that that which happeneth cometh so slowly; I make no pretense at mine own humiliation at delay;
13. I abide only in the thought that I serve daily those who need me most, and they come unto me finally saying, Master, forgive us, for we did much carelessly.
14. Beauteous indeed are the rewards when we say unto those who have thwarted us, Peace be upon your troubled spirits, ye have done no harm except unto yourselves.
15. Let us not be overbearing with our wisdom; let us eschew evil thoughts and worldly desires, knowing that we dwell in mansions not made with earthly hands.
16. All things beautiful accrue to us, all things real become our heritage, all things noble ennoble us.
17. Great, great is your ministry unto sons of the womb; bear with them, help them, serve them, love them, do goodly works among them, think goodly thoughts concerning them.
18. Turn none away who ask of you, earnestly seeking that ye give them wisdom; though they ask for your lives, give them as ye can, except that part which belongeth to me and to our work.
19. Peace be unto you, and a noble living, until we be gathered together with the great labor finished.
20. My beloved, I embrace you in the name of all goodly things that come to the race. Amen and amen.
