Looking in all the Wrong Places

Teacher Ophelius: “The message for today contains the answer to many questions. The questions are: What do the many who have not the light seek for when they are searching, doing, and living? They almost certainly feel something is missing, but they know not what. How is it that they find themselves to have this unquenchable thirst for something they do not know, yet they keep looking in all the wrong places, doing things that cannot satisfy, and desiring material comforts as a substitute for the very thing that can make them whole? Why do humans insatiably hunger for that which is hollow, unfulfilling, and unsustainable? What is it that creates this blind spot for knowing God, for wondering about what comes next, for wanting answers to the meaning of life? These are questions that baffle us (spirit) because the answers are so simple, so undeniable, and so basic from our point of view, that we have difficulty understanding how children, created and brought into being can grow up and have no clue as to who their divine parent is, or why they were created.

“The answer is not ‘blowing in the wind,’ yet it would seem so for the many that go through life without a compass -- wasting the days that have been given them to find the answers to the questions about life -- why they are here, and what is their purpose for being?

“Your world, your society, having reached a relatively high level of development in science and technology teeters on the brink of it’s own decline and regression because so many do not even have a clue as to what their purpose is or know what lies ahead of them after they have breathed their last. This blindness away from god-knowing seems to be deepening with each generation rather than evolving naturally toward an awakening.

“Even in the past two thousand years since the Master walked this earth, declaring, ‘The harvest is plenty, yet the workers are few -- pray the lord of the harvest sends more workers,’ we still today have few workers when compared to how many still walk in darkness. So then, what is the answer? You my friends are the answer. You students on the path desiring to know the truth, to seek for the light, to know the One -- you are the hope for your world, and you are the salt of the earth.

“Every spiritual resource is being allocated to help you gather the harvest. You have so much potential and latent ability if only you would recognize this in yourselves. The lord of the harvest is calling you to double your efforts and is lavishly pouring out the tools, gifts, and resources for you to do so. The further down this path you walk, the greater will be the journey and the brighter will be the day. Stay on the path my friends, and use these resources that are provided for you. The rewards for the workers of light are many and the joy of having participated in the creation is priceless.
