Steve Ventola — Welcome everyone to our Christmas Eve, Temple of Light Service. Let’s begin with a devotion: Oh, LORD and KING, we still our hearts and minds, coming to one place together, knowing our one place together. Pausing, breathing, being—allowing Thy Nature to be shared among us. As we feel the intensity of Thy Spirit coming into our hearts and opening our minds, we give thanks for being together here and now—in this day, at this time, in Thy Way. Let us listen with the ear of our heart for Thy Word to be sounded through us all. In Thy Name, Aumen.
I will begin by reading something about Handel's Messiah: “The composition of Messiah, the complete 260-page oratorio, began on August 22, 1741, and was composed in just 24 days, when Handel finished the final orchestration on September 14, 1741. Handel composed Messiah without getting much sleep or even eating much food. When his assistants brought him his meals, they were often left uneaten. [Now that's a surprise for Handel because he was nicknamed ‘the bear’. He had a good appetite.] When he completed ‘Hallelujah’, he reportedly told his servant, ‘I did think I did see all Heaven before me, and the great God Himself seated on His throne, with His company of Angels.’ His servants would often find him in tears as he composed.” [www.thetabernaclechoir.org/articles/history-of-handels-hallelujah-chorus.html?]
To come before the Throne of God—the intensity of that gives a sensing of what Handel experienced. He thought he was before the Throne of God. He thought it, but his heart knew it. His mind maybe didn't allow him to know that he had an experience of the Throne of God, of what was looking to be pushed through him. The intensity of that, and what he allowed to be gifted through him, came through because he was listening to those tones—those tones of the animating universal tones that come from the center of all centers. The throne of God.
Here are a few words from Glory To God In The Highest—Shekinah Magic [greatcosmicstory.blogspot.com/glory-to-god-in-highestshekinah-magic.html] spoken in a Class by Uranda on June 26, 1953 :
“As thou hast loved me. Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am.” Not where I am going to be. The conclusion that that meant He was going to take Him up into the sky somewhere. Where was He when He said these words, “Where I am.” He was the manifestation of Deity on earth. He was the focalization of, the revelation of, Shekinah to the children of men, and He said, “I pray that they shall be with me where I am,” not where I am going to be. But assumption again has said, well, He really meant, “I want them to be where I'm going to be, and I'm going to be up in heaven; so, come on, little chillins, come on up to heaven.” No. Where I am—the manifestation of the Power of God on earth.”
Where I am. The LORD is not up in heaven that’s some place up in the sky. The LORD is here in this place. And having a sense of His Throne we come before it. We are in His Presence right now—just as Handel sensed that. He denied it in his mind, but here we're acknowledging it in our mind and heart. Where I am.
The text for Handel’s “Messiah, Hallelujah” comes from the book of Revelation 19:4-6 — “And the four and twenty elders and the four beasts fell down and worshipped God that sat on the throne, saying, Amen; Alleluia. And a voice came out of the throne, saying, Praise our God, all ye his servants, and ye that fear him, both small and great. And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth.
Revelation, Chapter 19: Verse 16 — “And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, King of Kings, and LORD of Lords.”
Revelation, Chapter 11:15 — “And he shall reign for ever and ever.”
That's where “Hallelujah” came from, from that text. And just a little note, the word “Hallelujah” with an “H” is the Hebrew spelling; and “Alleluia” with an “A” is from the Latin-Greek derivations. “Hallelujah” is defined as “Praise the Lord”, “God be Praised”. Okay, back to Glory To God In The Highest—Shekinah Magic:
“Gradually the pattern is unfolding so that you can begin to perceive with the eye of your heart the beautiful reality of the Divine Design, and seeing it, you begin to relax into it. You begin to let its control have meaning. You can, on the basis of faith—not seeing clearly—when there is trust, begin to let control have meaning, but the fulness of control in the reality of Truth appears when you have begun to see for yourself the beauty of the Divine Design.
“One of the outstanding keys to a realization of reality that can be found in Scripture or Holy Writ anywhere, an outstanding key which has from the standpoint of its true purpose and meaning been virtually ignored. This particular key was given to man at the time our Master's body was born on earth in the form of a babe. The central key is the Angels' Song: “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.” The coming of the Master was the supreme gesture from God, the zenith of God's Gift of Love to man—and only in relationship to love can there be peace—and it is clearly indicated it was on earth, and the supreme gesture of good will.
“What is the natural result when human beings allow themselves to be enfolded in the Shekinah Cloud of Glory that extends all the way to Highest God? First there begins to be a sense of peace—peace on earth, from which peace had been banished for so long, and from which it was again banished—peace on earth, the result of the working of God's Love within the Shekinah Cloud of Glory. And then good will—good will from God in the Highest, through the Shekinah, to all the children of men. Good will—the willingness to let all differences be past, to let all wrongs be as if they had not been. This is not the message of a bloodthirsty god through his angels, his avenging angels, to the cringing cowards dwelling on earth. This is the message of a God of Love, who does not require any blood sacrifice. This is the message of Highest God to the children of men through the Shekinah Cloud of Glory made manifest on earth and centered on earth in the body of a babe. Peace on earth.
“Once you begin to actually see these things, the truth of the matter, you can begin to have a new attitude toward life and towards God.”
Where I am. This brings to my heart my love for the Psalms. In Psalm 119 SCHIN, there are these words:
“My heart standeth in awe of thy word.
Thy law do I love.
Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them.
For all my ways are before thee.”
For those of you who have been in the “Advanced Conscious Healthy Aging Program”, I can't resist sharing one PowerPoint slide. Here it is:
“For all my ways before thee.” So here we are and each of us can say that everything in our world is before the Lord. Sometimes we may think we are hiding certain things but the Lord knows. He knows our heart and thoughts of our mind. So really nothing is hidden. We might as well be conscious that all our ways of living are seen and are before the LORD. So as we put all our ways before the Lord, the animating tones that animate all the universe are perceived and received in heart because we are in place. Those patterns that are coming to us to be extended through us. Pamela Gray mentioned, a little while back, “Surely grace and mercy shall follow us…” Surely grace and mercy shall follow us as we receive those animating tones. It allows us to experience the tree of life. We stop eating of the forbidden tree and we are in place experiencing the moment. The tree of life - experiencing that. When that happens, we present ourselves as a gift. The gift of our living to the Lord. At Christmas time we look to find the perfect gift for our friends. What about giving our living to the Lord as a gift to Him? To actually give our conscious lives in all our ways before the LORD. As we do, there is an affirmed connection in heart and clarity in mind, of giving our lives as a gift to the Lord. There is a sense of joy. We hear the tones of joy to the world, actually coming from out of the east into our hearts to extend through us. In that we repeat, repeat the sounding joy. Ultimately, “That they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves.”—singing hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah! Let's keep rejoicing altogether.”

Robert Merriman — Thank you Steve. Full heart! I feel such a wave of thanksgiving moving, not only through my capacities but through the angels gathered here online, who willingly and joyfully come into the center of the blue flame at this time, the “Refiner’s Fire”, the fire of Creative Love. “…. that they might have My joy.” Oh, Steve, how I love what you have established and focused in our service today. What a beautiful outline of Shekinah Magic.
We’ve been speaking of Christmas music, “The Messiah” and “Joy to the World.” There’s a lyric in “Joy to the World” which is, “Let every heart prepare Him room.” Who’s “Him”? He’s the One that brings the Shekinah Magic—the Creative Process. There has to be room. There’s always room when we’re in alignment.
“And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters. And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so. And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.” (Genesis 1: 6-8)
The Heaven, the Sacred Room of creation: the Lord does not create without it. How can we participate in His Creative Process without it? I would note that room was being made for the coming of the Christ in human form, in a very focused way through Jesus, as it had never been focused since the fall.
In the Book of Daniel it’s noted that about 500 years before our King noted that in spite of diligent, brave, and fully giving prophets (angels who had incarnated as prophets), that you might say, the “hardpan soil” of the consciousness of fallen man was such that it was not being penetrated adequately to allow the Seeds of Shekinah to grow, to come to fruition in a way that was adequate for the consciousness of man to be restored to the consciousness of God. And so, it was known in Heaven, and on Earth (there was agreement through the prophet Daniel and others) that a space would be held—a heaven—for this precious One to come,
Such a Love is almost incomprehensible to the consciousness of man operating in the three dimensions only. It’s been portrayed in the analogy of “the good shepherd”. When his sheep go off track, perhaps into dicey territory like the edge of precipices, or swamps, or brambles, or places where imminent cold or predators would take them, the good shepherd goes there himself and retrieves them, sometimes physically carrying the lambs, but he brings them back. And as Uranda noted in a recent post on the Great Cosmic Story, he doesn’t beat them. He doesn’t require blood sacrifice. He doesn’t, with vengeance, “show them a lesson.” He redirects them, as he can, to safety, to where the truth of them potentially being all they can is.
Sometimes he does it at great risk, as did our LORD and KING. He knew the violence that was present on earth. He knew the in-hospitability of human culture; what it had devolved into after the fall. He knew the discomfort and the unnatural contortions required by humans just to exist on the planet in such a condition. And yet He was willing. We speak of the passion of Christ. He was passionately willing! That’s the kind of love I am referring to! And then came the advent of His coming on earth when the factors were aligned—when the Heaven had been held those 500 years by Him and His Angels. Yes. “Let there be a firmament.” [greatcosmicstory.blogspot.com/let-there-be-firmament.html] And there was! And the place was held for Him to do what was necessary to express His Love as only He could.
This is from “The Book of Grace”, page 419: “And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth into Judea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem… to be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child. And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered. And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.” What’s up with that? The focus of the highest vibration of Love for this planet, and there’s no room? Once again we see the hardpan soil of human consciousness into which He incarnated willingly, lovingly, to retrieve His sheep from the breach.
Speaking of hardpan soil, my grandmother told a story—when she was living—of how she and her husband, my grandfather, acquired a property in Arkansas for farming. And they got out there and it was hardpan soil. They didn’t have a tractor. They just had horses and a plow. And they set the plow too deep, initially. Then they realized after a few rows that they were going to kill those horses if they didn’t adjust the plow. It had to be made more shallow and there were going to have to be a lot more passes to get the job done. So, the plow was adjusted. Adjustments were made.
It seems that Jesus had to make adjustments in His ministry along the way, almost continuously. Some belly flops were larger than others on the part of the field He was working with, due to that hardpan consciousness. There was one accounted in the Book of Mark (9:2-4). “And after six days Jesus taketh with him Peter, and James, and John, and leadeth them up into a high mountain apart by themselves: and He was transfigured before them. And His raiment became shining, exceeding white as snow; so as no fuller on earth can white them. And there appeared unto them E-li’as with Moses: and they were talking with Jesus.” A rarified atmosphere—Steve mentioned the intensity of Spirit—coming upon those in human form. And in the midst of that, back to Mark here (9:5-8): “And Peter answered and said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for thee and one for Moses, and one for E-li’as. For he wist not what to say; for they were sore afraid. And there was a cloud that overshadowed them: and a voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear Him. And suddenly, when they had looked round about, they saw no man any more, save Jesus only with themselves.” Much had been generated to lead to that point; and my take on it is that the pneumaplasm was fairly blown. And so, Jesus made adjustments.
Another adjustment was required when Lazarus had apparently passed, as accounted in the Book of John (11:32-35): “Then when Mary was come where Jesus was, and saw him, she fell down at His feet, saying unto Him, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died. When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping which came with her, he groaned in the spirit, and was troubled,” For Himself? I don’t think so. I think He was beginning to sense that the hardpan nature of the consciousness of what He had to work with had certain structural limitations at that moment. “And He said, Where have ye laid him? They said unto Him, Lord, come and see.” And, “Jesus wept.” Yet one more adjustment.
I have been meditating on the adjustments that the Lord has had to make, and adjustments that Uranda and Martin had to make too, along the way. There’s always “Plan A”, the straightest path to salvation through the Creative Process, through the unhindered allowance of the operation of Shekinah Magic in the firmament. But, when the firmament is punctured, what happens to its capacity to hold the Shekinah Magic? It’s caused me to meditate—and I’d like to share it with you—regarding the fabric of the firmament. In the past, and before preparing for this service, I thought of the firmament as something gaseous, open; spacious. We think of the James Webb telescope and the pictures we see of the galaxies, and a tremendous amount of space, and more space. And I suppose there’s an aspect of the true firmament that is represented there.
But, what I’d like to focus on is what has come to an understanding in my heart in this recent time relative to the fabric of the firmament, that it’s not just all gas. There’s a fabric that holds it all together and it’s made of something! It’s something that we were as humans designed to bring and it’s called trust in the Lord! The song says “Let every heart prepare Him room.” As our hearts open to the possibilities, while under pressure, spiritual intensity, as our hearts, through the Single Eye, open in relaxation through our trust of the One whose firmament this is, we find that in a relaxed way we can hold the space for the Seeds of Heaven to be planted in the firmament, so that sturdy trees of Shekinah can grow in all kinds of places, in all kinds of ways that we’ve never conceived before! As the scripture says, “Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard.” Well, probably it has, but not since the fall. So, it may not come to mind. There’s a fabric to the firmament that I can be responsible for. And in so doing the soil becomes fertile, augmented, supple, and ready for the Seeds of Heaven to be planted here close-up, and far away too!
We speak of the Fire That Burns in the Shekinah process. What is that? That’s the fire of your and my love for the One Who Dwells, passionate fire in response and in attraction thereto. And then bam! There’s union! That has to happen in a firmament that is safe, [greatcosmicstory.blogspot.com/new-heavenfine-substance.html] that that is held; that’s inviolate, under pressure, the pressure of the Creative Process.
I know we’re speaking as Angels together. We’ve held this pressure before in the Creative Process for the creation of this very planet. Surely, we can remember the presence of the Seeds that were planted through the life of Jesus, through the incarnation of the One Who Dwells, and the astute expansion of that through Uranda, and through Martin. Surely, we can remember who we are, and where we came from, and what we are here to do. So, at Christmas Season, having received the Gift of our LORD and KING, and the Great Ones who have followed Him and prepared the soil for us, how can we do less than to do this for others, for those who are coming out of the east? And they are coming with great response to the One Who Dwells.
I don’t know if you’ve heard of our friends in South Korea, who recently found that an almost “for sure” bank loan arrangement for their new Center fell through. Over there I understand you have to pay for your lease up front. So, you have to go finance it at the bank and consummate the deal that way. But suddenly, due to factors unexpected, not one, not two, not three banks, but six banks had refused the loan that the group was applying for. And, then the seventh! Yujin came back from that interview and that application, having notified the staff in advance that it didn’t go through, that it wasn’t accepted, and that somehow the money would have to be obtained some other way. When he got back to the Center he was greeted with the words, “How Perfect!!!”—in a sense of celebration and acceptance and relaxation in the situation just the way it was, which from the outward sense looked hopeless!
Out of that, almost all of the money was raised from 61 people there, many of them not of substantial means at all. And the rest was arranged neatly and tidily through response to the Living Word. The Living Word(s) which are the Seeds of our Master, expanded through Uranda and Martin, and you and me. They, the Korean group, didn’t do this in a vacuum. There was something that went before, and now they are coming. They are coming with open hearts! Yes, Korea represents part of that, but there is so much more.
And Hallelujah that the seeds have grown to this extent! That—I’m looking at the Zoom screen here—there are this many of us who can speak in this way together and understand these words, and know something of what they mean, and also the sober responsibility that it calls forth from each of us, sober, but joyous! For this came I into this world! And relative to these patterns of failure that I have mentioned, we’ll have a chance to prove them out in victory; many of us who are on this screen will get to do it up close and personal. And, those that we receive, train, mentor, and encourage, they’ll carry the work forward.
The LORD knew what He was doing. He didn’t come on the earth to die. He didn’t come on earth for a belly flop. He came on earth to plant seeds—seeds that would grow into mighty, magic, Patterns of Restoration that could lead all of mankind into wholeness. Praise God, there are sheep out there. Let’s go get ‘em! I look forward to the speaking of the Word through you, and the line is open for responses.

Suzanne Core — Robert and Steve, what a precious hour together. My heart is full, in part because your hearts were so full this morning as you spoke. How pleased the Lord must be to have true man once again walk on this earth—true man and true woman, divine man and woman, sons and daughters of God. There is no greater privilege than this; so of course our hearts are full. Glory to God in the Highest is the prerequisite for peace on earth and goodwill toward men. And as we come together in these hours to do that, to bring that—just that—Glory to God in the Highest. How grateful I am that there are true men and women on earth in these days. Thank you.
Christina Pivarnik — Hallelujah. Such a magnificent time together. As we take a few moments to lift our hearts, from this place where the One Most High dwells, to honor Him with all. And I give deepest thanks that we know how to do this together and we know how to do this individually, and that we're quick to make the adjustments in ourselves as necessary, to keep that clear tone sounding in our lives, in our worlds, and with those that we touch in our days. And we know what that's like. One small mis-step and it's obvious that that’s not what needed to happen, and it can be fixed instantly. And we don't go off center; we maintain that center of love for the One Most High, because there's nothing else that matters as much as that. It's all about our passion for the Lord, and that we give expression to that, to the very highest ability that we have. So I am deeply thankful to share this time with you two fabulous gentlemen; with all those that I see on the screen; and know, even those many that aren't on the screen that are still present, right here with us in spirit; even those not in form that are present right here with us in spirit—that we are here to speak the Word in every moment. So praise be, as you said, Hallelujah. What a glorious day and celebration we share. Thank you so much.
Marsha Bogolin — Steve and Robert, my eyes are still very wet, and I am so very grateful that you trusted to bring the depth of passion that you did—and as was alluded to by others, to see this, to feel this in men. The willingness to open your hearts so fully in passion for the Lord is truly moving. And I take heed of the invitation that you're offering, for us to accept this sober and joyous responsibility. It strikes me that you have given new meaning to the Christmas story. Why did that love come? It came so that the hard soil humanity’s heart and mind could be loosened, and make it possible for seeds of heaven to be planted. So both of you emphasized trust, and coming before the throne—and particularly, that trust is the fabric of the firmament, and we are responsible for holding that through the pressures, making the adjustments. So, I think there's a lot to ponder in what seeds you have both planted, and I truly praise God for your presence at this time. It's no accident for all of us to be present. Thank you so much.
Anne Blaney — Thank you both, dear friends, Robert and Steve. I've been thinking about clouds, as you have been speaking. I'm thinking of two different kinds of clouds. There's the cloudy state of the consciousness on the earth, that has been present for a while. And there's a necessity of doing something, that you Robert have emphasized in the past, which is to be an expression of the spirit of the single eye—you've mentioned this and it stuck with me. There needs to be that laser attention on the Lord through that Cloud, so that that's held steady, like one of those flooding beams that we see sometimes at night, going through the darkness. And then when that happens, when that connection is made, and especially with a group, then there's another Cloud that becomes manifest—the Cloud of Glory. I was thinking about Handel, when he wrote his piece as was described, how his servants found him in tears often. And he was obviously generating something very massive, in terms of that cloud, the Cloud of Glory. And look how long that particular Cloud has sustained an experience of beauty, and it keeps repeating and repeating in pulsations. Well, the Cloud of Glory that happened when the Master was born was so incredibly immense. And I think that it was only made possible because there were those on earth who were providing that beam, that laser spirit of the single eye that did allow there to be a welcome. And what a wonderful example of how God does become manifest here on earth. And just to start meditating on the fact that it actually can be perceived, even at certain points be seen. So the whole exploration of the Shekinah Fire, to me, is becoming more and more meaningful. So I love what we've been able to do together as single beams that have been aligned into one beam; and that there has been a Cloud present on earth this morning. So thank you both.
Christine Jonas — I’ve heard some of my Christian friends, and a lot of other people, say, “What would Jesus do; or what would Jesus say?” I think about that this morning, and I think He would say, “Joy to the world that you people found each other.” Oh my goodness, right! I think that there is so much potential in what we each individually have to bring; and I just love all of your expressions. I mean, all these disparate people—who are you? where are you? But we're not disparate. We are the same spirit, I feel. Anyway, I’m just so pleased, so full. Thank you.
Ernie Reidel — It's amazing how much I can identify with, and relate to, what you had to say today. It's been so much in my consciousness lately, how important it is that everything that I do, and everything that I say, and everything that I think needs to have meaning and purpose to it. And, what helps me is, that I look at it like somebody knows what I'm doing, all the time—which is true. And it helps me not to slip up, and to stay in point so that my whole consciousness is getting be more and more of doing in each moment of sounding the tone. Thank you so much, both of you, for what you had to say today.
Stewart Berger — Following on what was said about the beam of light shining in the darkness; and about what would Jesus say—one of my main experiences today has been profound appreciation for you, the angels of the Lord, who have been gathered together in this place, now, speaking as one voice. Before I came online, and through this weekend, what I had been perceiving was a bit of an unsettled vibration because of all the things happening in the world; and part of that is what's happening now around Christmas, the holiday season—and a lot of that is joyous. But being with you this last hour has been a very visceral experience for me of the combined substance that you and we have—and that the Word of the Lord has been spoken. This steady beam of light and love is something that is so needed in the world. It’s a real blessing, and I'm sure that so many people in the world are appreciative of receiving it, even though they may not know where it comes from. It is a vibrational thing. Some of the words that come to me are, “Fear not; let your heart not be troubled by what's going on in the world. Rest in Me. Receive my love. And let it go out from you likewise.” So it's been very powerful for me, and for you too, I know, so Steve and Robert and everyone else, Thank you very much.
David Barnes — I could feel pulsations of intensity building in my head and in my heart; and there were moments of disquiet and discomfort as well. And the frailty of the human capacity trembles as the river keeps flowing, and images come from out of the east, and the heart comes to rest, and the mind knows. As I listened, I began to wonder how many people were alive when the Master was born on earth? I noted that it is estimated that there was only around 300 million people on earth when He was here. We've got over 8 billion now. Apparently around 45 million were living in the Roman Empire. They didn’t have the means of communication that we have, but the capacity for vibrational communication was present. We know that 500 years before He came something dramatic in an invisible sense was set in motion through the Master's agreement in the inner planes with Daniel in the outer. Michael the Archangel was incarnate as Daniel—so the inner and the outer in agreement set something in motion that would prepare a way for the Master to incarnate and have the greatest possibility of success in the midst of 300 million people on the planet. And we are present now, roughly 120 years after Uranda was born to bring a conscious continuation of the Divine Plan that was set in motion 500 years before the Master was born. I have a feeling that there is a great deal that is being planned and prepared right now, in the invisible realms, that we don't know much about consciously, but there is this agreement. I remember hearing a song in the early seventies, and the words said, “A beam of light will fill your head, and you'll remember what's been said, by all the good men this world's ever known.” And I stood up straight and listened to what was coming from the music store as I walked by the door. It was sounding strong in my soul and in my heart, and it made me pay attention, and helped wake up a 21 year old man who had virtually no religious or spiritual experience. And I wonder what's happening now, as this beam of light begins to expand in the heart and the head of men and women around the world. It can very quickly catalyze movement; and there are people moving all over the world now, people changing position, changing where they live, changing their reason for being—some walking into disaster, some walking out of it, some walking into freedom; some hearing the same sound and the same lyrics, “A beam of light will fill your head, and you’ll remember what’s been said.” It can happen that quickly! And our contribution is significant, knowing what we know, living in the flow of these historical and heavenly events on earth, as we participate in the expansion of the presence of that beam of light, vibrationally, audibly—in every way. The Divine Plan was set in motion 2,500 years ago, and magnified 2,000 years ago, and increased in intensity 120 years ago; and the intensity amped up again 36 years ago, and here we are. I’m thrilled with the great discomforting that has gone on this morning as the Comforter has spoken and called to remembrance, through us, called to remembrance for many in the world, why we are here. This is a magnificent Christmas Eve service that we share with you guys—and I love your courage, which is your great heart of love for the KING, and especially for His Body, of which we are members—and there are many more of them in the world who are beginning to feel and hear and know that beam of light present in their own souls. Thank you, Robert. Thank you. Steve.
