Do Not Wait to Ignite Your Instrumentality; Progression Comes With Dedication

Augustine received by Al Fike
God bless you, beloved souls. It is your teacher, Augustine. I come to remind you that as a child of God, as one who follows the Divine Path, the highest path of all, that there are responsibilities and obligations that are connected to that path. Not obligations that are onerous and which have negative consequences if not adhered to, rather obligations that resound through the soul to the conscious mind that suggest that being of service to humanity is an important task.
I believe that many of you sit and wait. Wait for that time when you are called. Wait for those conditions where you may serve. In this passive sense, you believe that the calling will be loud, clear and forthright. Yet, this is often not the case. It is within those daily tasks and daily efforts to be amongst humanity that the instrumentality, the blessings of God, flow.
You, my beloved and beautiful students of truth, are sensitive enough and developed enough within your soul perceptions to know this, understand this and to hear that call, no matter how subtle it might be. Yet, again, the mind so resolute in its thinking and patterns of behaviour suggests otherwise. That contrariness between mind and soul is still present. It has not disappeared. It is less than it was and will continue to lessen as you continue to grow. Yet, in truth, you often turn a blind eye and a deaf ear to God’s callings. You do not do so out of malice or intent. You do so out of neglect of not hearing, not making time to hear, not being in alignment with God’s Will. Because you, in your way, your humanness, are ever making an effort to amalgamate your will with God’s Will. Not in a way that gives God’s Will the dominant decision, but rather a back and forth between the two. Your efforts, your decisions, often reflect convenience and comfort and a desire to feed the mind’s sense of importance, rather than that humble and beautiful way of the soul doing God’s Will.
I am not saying that each and every day is a reflection of this, but there are moments that are and moments where you are indeed engaged in God’s Will. That engagement, of course, is coloured by the mind and by the conditions that you carry. Yet, you are making efforts. You do desire and you pray to be used as God’s instruments. You are in the capacities that you are willing to be used in the ways that are convenient and comfortable for you. Yet, as times change, as conditions worsen, as the Earth continues to erupt in change and chaos, you must learn to be strong, to step forward in faith, to put aside the hesitations of the mind and to walk forward in truth and in purpose.
When you continue to reinforce this duality of action, of doing, then you continue to stay at a certain place, a static condition that is neither fully responsive to God’s Will, but also not fully responsive to your own. It is a place of ambivalence. My beloved and beautiful students, it is time to get off the fence, as you would say, to be one way or another, to commit to one way or another. For your angel friends make great effort to help you understand the Will of God. Your soul makes great effort to go to God. Yet, the mind still predominates, still chooses a way that is not completely intact with God’s Will.
God’s Will is a force. It is something, when you adhere to it and are attentive to it, you cannot deny. It is compelling. It is powerful. It is often clear and unambiguous. Yet, you must exercise that part of you that attunes, hears, knows and sees God’s Will. As you continue to exercise that muscle, so to speak, you will get stronger and guidance will come clearer, but you must choose. You must get off the fence and be dedicated and honestly adhere to the prayers that you make to do God’s Will. For the time being, it is a very imperfect dedication. Your souls have all the capacity, all the ability to know God’s Will, but since you are human, there is a tendency to crowd out God’s Will with the demands of the day, with the demands of the mind, with all that which clutters your life, making it more complicated than it should be, complicating the simplicity of following your guidance of each day, a dedication to God and a dedication to the gifts that lie within the service that is possible through your instrumentality.
I remind you, beautiful souls, that the struggles are not over. The challenges are not over. You have not reached that place of clarity and true alignment with God, but you will. Our hope is that you will while you are still on Earth, so that you may make a formidable instrument of God’s Will, an angel on Earth, so to speak. Yet, we are patient and we love you dearly. The progress that you have made is significant. There have been few, not only who exist on your Earth at this time, but who have ever existed, who in such numbers have assigned themselves to this task, are in alignment with the truth, with such clarity and knowledge that it is undeniable that you have your feet firmly upon the divine path. We are joyed with this, my beloved students, to see the numbers grow, to see the truth flourish amongst a handful. Yet, a handful is enough to change the world if they are dedicated enough.
I return to the issue at hand. It is a matter of dedication and desire. I speak to you in this way so that you may see clearly, not only this day but every day, that the need for further dedication, the need for further inflowing of God’s Love, the need to acknowledge, recognise the soul and its purpose, its abilities, its gifts, is paramount at this time. For the luxury of time is running out, my friends, and the time for purposeful expression of purpose is upon us. I remind you of this state, of this condition of the world.
It may not seem obvious to you at this time that there are desperate conditions in your world, but you are certainly aware that all is not well, that harmony does not ensue in God’s creation of this planet. Indeed, these conditions will worsen. For a change must come from these conditions. I urge you also not to wait, not to wait for the alarm bells to ring, for the obvious to take place, but to be ready to practise, not only practise prayer, in which you are well-practised, but to practise service in ways and means that may be uncomfortable, that may stretch you and challenge you. Indeed, as you continue to serve God, then the way will be opened and the way of expression of your gifts in alignment with God’s Will will be easier as you strengthen these abilities.
My beloved friends, this is not a reprimand, merely a reminder. You are truly loved. You are truly beautiful, your souls resplendent in light. Now it is time to shine that light into the world. For you have all you require to do so. You must pluck up your courage and step forward. Ask God to guide you. If you must speak, ask God to put the words upon your lips. If you must act, ask God to give you the courage to act and the ability to act effectively as His instruments. If you must express your gifts, have faith in your gifts. Have faith in who you are, that God created, that magnificent being that God created, it is you. Acknowledge and walk with this understanding, this truth within you.
There are many ways that God may use you, beloved souls, many ways indeed. Yet, if you do not step forward, then how does it begin? How is it accomplished? That first step is crucial. That first step is powerful. When you are willing, when you choose to serve, you know you have your angel friends, God’s Hand upon you. You know that all will flow in the harmony that is meant to be. When the day is done, you will feel satisfied, like a good meal. You will have that sense of contentment, of fullness, of ripeness that you have served well and God is pleased.
God bless you, my beloved souls, beautiful children, beautiful students of truth, beautiful lights. God bless you, beloveds. I am Augustine and I love you. God bless you.
