The Book of Remembrance of our Ancient Grandmothers Chap.8

Shalom Family! As I was reading in chapter 8 this morning, I was amazed at how much this chapter was connected to the lesson Elder gave us yesterday.

I am writing a few verses and I hope you will feel compelled to read the rest of it 💜💜💜

5 And there are seven qualities of spirit

that will allow those in the temporal world

to begin to be able to crossover to experience Eden

or conditions of the next life

and the eternal truth concerning life in the temporal world

And those who embark to enter in to acquire

and practice these seven qualities of spirit

must long to know the truth

and be filled with the spirit of love for Anokeesed

and the Man that He became

and all creation into which He has lovingly placed them

And these are the seven qualities of spirit

that will join you to the spirits of life in all holy creation

and to your fellows

and to your Redeemer

6 The first of the seven is

you must learn to spend most of your waking hours thinking

feeling

or speaking

to Anokeesed or to Motsah the Lamb

And when you are not speaking to Him out loud

speak to Him in your mind

and think to Him

and feel towards Him and with Him

And you must love Him with all the capacity of your human soul

And you must think of Him as always being present with you

as you walk in the way of the activities of life

And in this way you must acknowledge Him in all you do

and in all the workmanship of your hands

7 And you must keep Him close to you

by behaving and thinking in a way

that does not compel Him to withdraw the closeness of His Spirit

And you must be diligent to safeguard His Presence with you

by responding to the ebb and flow of the Spirit

to be led by it

And the cornerstone of your bonding must be repentance

praise

and thankfulness

8 And the second of the seven is that starting at an early age

you must develop a deep and profound humility

in approaching Him

And this humility is not self-abasing

but a happy and confident exchange

between friends

And in humility acknowledge the reality of His Soul

And you must ever express in your heart

that there is not anything you know

that He does not know better

there is nothing holy you desire

that He has not desired first for you in righteousness

there is nothing you love

that He does not love more profoundly

there is nothing good and holy you hope for

that He has not already prepared for you

or those for whom you hope

9 And any view or perspective you have of anything

He can make that view purer

truer

clearer

and more practical

And He is your resource

for being successful in any endeavor

and effective in all your relationships

And He knows where you are going before you start out

And He knows the intent of your heart in all things

And you must.feel responsible

for the effect you have upon His tender feelings

1O And true humility is when

you are just as comfortable acknowledging in your soul

when you are wrong

as well as when you are correct

when you are good at something

or when you are not

and when you know

or when you do not

Be graciously thankful when you are correct

and repentant when you are not

and true humility will envelop you in your walk with Him

And those who are uncomfortable with compliments

or who disdain to admit their errors

are wanting in their humility
