Ego and humility.




                    My dearest friends it is with a loving Spirit that I approach
            you this time. You will notice the added familiarity between Spirit
            and humankind that exists this time for have we not drawn that
            much closer. It is through these words that a bond can be formed
            stronger  than  any  other  bond,  a  bond  with  God,  through  an
            understanding  that  has  never  existed  before,  at  least  in  this
            lifetime on this earth.



                   We feel that now you can be more at one with us but we
            would stress that a constant referral to the words that have been
            given before be maintained. There were warnings there that must
            be  heeded  and  understood.  It  so  often  happens  that  a  certain
            complacency sets in and the signs are not noticed. Incursions of
            negativity  can  be  made  into  your  knowledge  that  leave  it
            vulnerable.  When  the  consequential  crises  occurs  you  are
            unprepared and are then open to the abuse that negativity has in
            store for you.



                   Again let us look at the ego. The ego is sneaky in that it
            approaches  under  the  heading  of  being  of  service  to  others.  In
            other  words  in  doing  good  you  become  a  "do  gooder".  A  "do
            gooder'  is  one  who  does  good  but  knows  it  and  thereby  lays  a
            condition  that  the  act  must  be  also  recognised  by  others  and
            favour  given  to  the  doer.  Therefore  the  work  ceases  when  the
