Text: And His promises are sure; and that which ye receive, that use! For to have an ideal, for to have a purpose, for to have knowledge and understanding without the courage and the will to use same is to become a weakling, not worthy, not able above that doubt; even as Peter when he walked on the water. And when you see the turmoils of the earth, and when you hear the cries of those that are fearful, and when you see the elements about thee apparently in destructive forces, and ye doubt - to be sure you sink into doubt and fear and despair; unless thy purpose is ever "Here am I, Lord, use me, direct me." Cayce (853-9) It is not in the tempest, not in the roar or the lore of the might of battle. Though there may be the destruction of life, of property (as is known materially) - no one can destroy the soul but self! No one but self! God hath not willed that any soul should perish, but hath given even His Son, that brought even into the world that spirit of Christmas. Let thy message be: There is hope in Him. For there is the promise through, "Lo, I am with thee always, even unto the end of the world." And though the world, the earth may pass away, though it may be burned up, though it may bring destruction to the material things, we look to Him, we know there is safety in Him. Fear not he that may destroy the body, but rather fear him that may destroy the soul in torment. Then, in love, in obedience, in prayer, follow Him. Cayce (281-59) Each soul, as is known by the entity, enters an experience for the magnifying of the entity¹s ideal. For as has been given, He hath not willed that any soul should perish; neither does He seek to bring sorrow, disappointments, heartaches, in the experience of those activities in the earth¯save it be for the edifying of the soul. For whom the Lord loveth He chasteneth, and purgeth every one. Cayce (1466-3) Each soul as it has entered and does enter into material manifestation is to fulfill a purpose, with the Creative Forces or God. For He hath not willed that any soul should perish, but hath with every temptation, every fault, prepared a way, a manner, an opportunity for the entity to become as one with Him. For that is the purpose of the soul¹s being in the beginning. Hence without beginning, without end. Cayce (257-201)
