is not as your measurement but could perhaps be likened to your
            gravity; in that the further you distance yourself from the source
            of  the  pull,  the  lesser  is  the  strength  of  attraction.  Take  your
            present  position,  if  you  like  we  are  closer  to  God  than  you  are;
            therefore there is a greater attraction for us than for you. As you
            become more spiritual, so the closer you get to God; therefore the
            task gets easier. It is all a question of your position.



                   Now we look into the speed of your return. If you keep on
            your path, then you will find an acceleration along it as the drag
            on you diminishes. This drag is doubt, this drag is ignorance. As
            you  release  these  drags  then  you  accelerate  along  your  path,
            becoming more susceptible to the pull, the attraction of God.



                   So now we have changed your perception yet again. There
            are  many  instances  of  your  understanding  being  based  on  the
            measurements  imposed  by  the  physical  life  that  you  need  to
            experience, yet in the sense of Spirit these measurements have no
            bearing.  Steps  cannot  be  taken  on  your  spiritual  path  until  the
            time is right. There it is again, time. But this time we speak of, is
            not  measurable  by  any  clock,  no  it  is  measured  by  your
            understanding.  It  is  rather  like  these  words.  We  spoke  already
            about the changes that have taken place. These words are not fully
            understood until you have the ability to understand them. If you
            understand them now, it is only because it is the time, no hours,
            days, months or years, the time is only now.
