[tmtranscripts] Tomas - on Human Expectation & Divine Hope

[Rldiv at aol.com]

Good morning, this is Tomas.

I greet you this morning observing your struggle with the lesson on the 
nature of human expectation and divine hope. How often do mortals become 
hurt, angered, activated by their animal natures when their expectations 
fail, when they are shown to be flawed; and they may be those the mortal 
needs to trust for the maintenance of their life in the flesh? Where is hope 
to be found when these are known to be frail, when they are found to be 
vulnerable to the elements that would tear them down? 

Your hope is in God, in his indwelling spirit, in his love, in his promise, 
his provision for your progressive movement through his house to that place 
where he dwells always. You have heard him call; you have awakened in a 
distant corner of a great mansion. He has sent his spirit, a part of himself 
to guide you to him, and through the corridors of your passage you encounter 
many, and while living the life of a mortal, you will invest in others with 
the expectation of some return, and through the room of this mortality where 
you must pass, you will find these investments with expectation vulnerable to 
loss, and yes, you would feel injured. Would you stay in this room where such 
expectations are understood to be vulnerable, is this where you would place 
your hope?

Is it not in your Father and his guidance through this world beyond its 
boundaries where your hope is invested with a sure reward of safe arrival 
after passage through many rooms changing clothes in each? Each may choose 
how long they tarry by the choice they make, where they choose to invest 
their hope. I have passed through these rooms, some of them, certainly the 
room of mortality. I can understand your hesitation to place all your hope in 
him for you feel the need to invest elsewhere to sustain your walk in the 
room of your sojourn, but you will find when these are frustrated, when they 
fail, it is an opportunity to realize where your hope might be fulfilled and 
take it up, walk with him who trusts in you, has invested himself in you; 
indeed you are a gift of his own design. Come to me he says in the face of 
your disappointment, bring it to me he says, speaking through your tears. 
Walk with me, he says, that your tears may become those of joy. 

No, it is never easy, but with him it is possible. In his hand is your hope 
where those human expectations with their accompanying failure are left 
behind in mercy, forgotten, forgiven, their distractions overcome. It is the 
way of passage; do not delay, prolonging this episode of frustration. Walk 
with him whose hand is the sure guide to the realization of all your hope and 
the source of every dream inspiring the soul making of all, and if you would 
hesitate, if you would be unable to lift your hand, if the weight of your 
flesh is too great, and yet your heart desires to take his hand, if this is 
your wish, he will assist you, and so will I. Yes, there are many who are 
here to help you, each of you. You are surrounded with support, you are 
infused by his light, you will not be abandoned. Your limits are understood, 
are accepted; accept the hands of those who would lift you, steadying you 
upon your feet, proceeding through this hall of mirrors. Many times, when you 
lose your way, confused by their reflections distorting your image, we will 
guide you. 

Yes, the discrepancy between the vision of faith and the forms of human sight 
are sometimes great, sometimes disturbing, sometimes perhaps horrifying, but 
we walk with you. Our Master has walked this way before; I have walked this 
way before. In this rich provision is where your trust is well invested. 

Do this help my son, the injury of your heart?

Yes Tomas, you and the spirit of my Father, our Father, working together are 
quite a team. 

You are part of this team. Recognize your place, and with you, we will walk 
with others in and through you and your friends, fellows of this sphere, we 
will walk this world through the room of shattered dreams to realize the joy 
to be found in your destiny discovering the treasure you are together in this 
journey.

My son, I leave now never too far awaiting our next session. Go in peace 
resting in the knowledge of our presence working with Father to guide you 
more deeply in his joy.

Thank you Tomas, thank you Father, thank you Michael and Mother.
