All you need to fear is the weak
nesses of your earthly elements,
which bring doubt and suspicion;
when these are overcome and you
feel that you have a firm foundation
for the belief or faith you trust in,
then comes the power.
Then ask, and you snail receive;
knock, and the door will be opened,
and with the spiritual vision you
may discover how well you are
guarded. Dear husband, my
thoughts were not very often away
from you while | dWelt on the
earth; they are quite as often with
you now.
I assure you, I am ever seeking
TO do you'goOd, ever looking at your
surroundings, asking God and
friends to aid and protect you.
o. the sweet by and by when we
shall be united again, in the bonds
of love without fear or jealousy:
these belong to the earthly taberna-
Gle: when the spirit is freed from
its tenement of clay and dWells in
the realms of causes, we can smile
on our defects in life. You are still
struggling in the dark groove Of
earthly conditions; you have to
meet them, and learn to bear them
with patient resignation, which
will make the load lighter and your
path more pleasant.
These are some of the things which
the spirits come to teach their dear
ones; we cannot tell you how to
avoid all the ills of life, because you
cannot avoid them all; we can only
tell you how to catch the sun light
as it glimmers through the clouds.
This is how we progress, little by
little, step by step. You see, you
learn this before you come; you
have only a little step to make, as
understanding these laws you are
soon prepared to stand in higher
conditions when you make your
exit from your earthly body.
l am pleased with the course you
take with our children; our sons
will look up to you with reverence,
they will think Of one as their angel
mother, dwelling among the gods,
visiting them sometimes, for good.
Ohh what beautiful change has
come over the condition Of my soul +;
how much happier l have grown
since l returned and held converse
with you, and how much brighter
is my heaven, how much dearer is
my God!
Tell our friends to let the love of
truth unfetter their minds. invest
igate for themselves, and endeavoI
to prove it error before the call it
such, 1t is a beautiful truth; none
know it with SO much Joy and sat-
isfactiOn as a spirit that has been
shut out from the dear ones.
o! how we hail these grand, these
beautiful phenomena! These cause
the cry to go forth Hallelujah! To
Thee, o. Thou great and WOndrous
Godi
This is what causes hosanas to be
sung. A ak the Christians why do
the angels sing hosana to God in
the higest? They will tell you 1t is
because His only beg0tten son was
sent into the world, to suffer and
die for the sins of the world, but a
host of heavenly spirits will tell you
it is because he has devised a plan
whereby we can hold communion
with the dear ones.
The cry should go forth, from
every spiritualist. upon the earth,
Hallelujah to God in the highest
Then the angels would catch the
flame and answer peace and good
will to all mankind.
l am quite a preacher tonight.
am happy and my soul is filed with
inspiration and Joy unspeakable.
Bless our children all: give them
the kind and loving kiss for me, and
in your own way, through your own
inspirational powers teach them, so
they may have the knowledge of
this grand truth, that they may be
able co stand in Cue foremost ranks
to fight error, to promulgate truth,
and understand how they may be-
come more noble men and women.
You asked Ble to come, dear hus.
