Beloved spirits of love and light, 

As you spent time and directly asked questions of your Inner Christ, you were not only strengthening your divine connection, but also fully accepting that God is the one and only source of your needs and supply. You may go to this divine source and drink from its fountain of love, wisdom and power any and every time you are moved to do so! 

Beloved chelas, as you performed last week's exercise, you may have found that for some of your questions you received answers, for others there was only silence, and for even a few the answers you were given did not seem to make much sense. As has been mentioned before, it is important to know how and why to ask. Your questions must have a definite and impersonal purpose if you wish to receive a clear and simple answer. In addition, your ability to receive is of equal importance, which means you must take time to listen at inner and outer levels as well. 

Before you choose to ask a question of your I AM Presence, ask yourself why you need to have such knowledge, or if there is a practical use for such information in your life. Remember that God conserves energy, using it always with great care and love. The knowledge you are asking for is always measured with your understanding of how it will be used for the greatest good of all. Therefore, do not feel uneasy if you do not have all the answers. In fact you shall find as you continue to move forward on your spiritual path that you actually know very little at all. Remember to ask your God Presence to let you know what you need. Then, trust and have faith that you are always divinely guided on your journey toward your full ascension into the light. 

Mastery over the energies at the level of existence where you presently abide can only be accomplished as you become the Presence of God in action through the attainment of Christ Consciousness. During the next seven days cycle, meditate upon the meaning of 'becoming the Presence of God, I AM, in action at all times.' Make it clear to your conscious mind and feelings what God is for you, for this understanding is the basis of your further spiritual development toward enlightenment and freedom! 

May you continue to be ever lifted upward, toward the very heart of your I AM Presence! 

In love and purity, I AM Serapis Bey
