My Message To You

AUG. 14, 1980, 6:03 AM
W. WILLOW, STUDY

You received the message that you requested of Me, o son, through My Servant Mabel. You shall have to read and reread it, for I spoke through her, as I always do, in a more flowery tongue. It is good for you to be instructed in “other tongues” occasionally. No, do not reread it now. Let Me comment on the message, and then you can compare this and that.

Your first impression was that the study upon which you are about to embark is described in terms more important and more glowing. You’re not even sure how the study is to be done, other than to glean from these teachings what I have said about the spirit and its relationship to health, to study the Scriptures for some help, to read in the holistic literature and listen to tapes that you have and that I shall bring to your attention. Yes, these are the basics, but I shall bring other possibilities to your attention as the Fall progresses.

Essentially what I said was that this study should be an important one, and you shall become known as the leader in your field of this movement, which is world-wide. Actually, in much of the rest of the world the spiritual dimension to health has not been lost, as it has in your culture. Yours has not been one open to learning much from others, but you shall indicate some need for such learning.

As you read the message you were struck by the overbalance I gave to your study, in contrast to words about your family situation. Reread it for confirmation of this, and notice that I speak mainly to fundamentals: seek My help and guidance, love your wife as I do My Church and stick with her through all sorts of diversity, and require respect and honor of your son. How you do that is the test in which you are actively involved. Some aspects of life are easy for you… and some are and are going to be hard. The cow and the calf, for example represent a situation of difficulty. You must persist in this… and you must with Matthew. He needs to know what you are thinking more so than he does now. You must be certain that he knows his options. Then if he chooses against honor and respect he shall have to suffer the consequences. Just be certain that he knows this now.
