Do Not Promote Fear

July 4, 1998

* Machiventa: My sisters and brothers it is again Machiventa. I would offer you some few words of advice. In this mission for our great brother and Father you will have many opportunities for growthful play as we have in this convocation upon the mountain. But I would warn you, and I do not speak warnings lightly, nor to disseminate fear, but as a representative of our common parent, his adjutant, if you will, that you not smooth over the rough edges within you for this teaching mission. The rough edges are there for your instruction and questioning.

While we come together and feel good, this is not our entire purpose. I would warn you against complacency and ask that you be vigilant within your souls, not without joy certainly... . ..but dear friends, remember that your honesty will ever be rewarded with a greater appreciation and acceptance above and on this planet.

   If there are no Thomas's among you, you will be missing a great deal, for the Thomas's are a balance to the tendency toward consensus of thought. One cannot function and be whole without the other.

You must remain and maintain, though it is seemingly a paradox, those rough edges. The rough edges pierce the shell that contains you, the shell which is the boundary of your core of knowledge and understanding. And it may not be your own rough edge which pierces that shell, often it is not. Be brave. You will be wrong, often enough, but you will always find the truth. God is a great and just parent.
