Guidance you are bound to have as you live more and more with Me. It follows without doubt.<\/p>\n
But these times are not times when you ask to be shown and led, they are times of feeling and realizing My Presence. Does the branch continually ask the Vine to supply it with sap, to show it in what direction to grow? No, that comes naturally from the very union with the Vine, and I said, \u201cI am the true vine, ye are the branches.\u201d<\/p>\n
From the branches hand the choice grapes, giving joy and nourishment to all, but no branch could think that the fruit, the grapes, were of its shaping and making.<\/p>\n
No! the grapes are the fruit of the Vine, the Parent-Plant.\u00a0 The work of the branch is to provide a channel for the life-flow.<\/p>\n
So, My children, union with Me is the one great overwhelming necessity. All else follows so naturally, and union with Me may be the result of just consciousness of My Presence. Be not too ready to speak to others.\u00a0 Never make yourselves do this.<\/p>\n
Pray always that the need may be apparent, if you are to do this, and the guidance very plain. My Spirit has been driven out by the words of men.\u00a0 Words, words, words.\u00a0 Many have called Me Lord, Lord, who have not done the things that I said.<\/p>\n
Discourage too much talk. Deeds live, and re-echo down the ages \u2014 words perish. As Paul: Though I speak with tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass or a tinkling cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy, . . . And have not charity, I am nothing\u2026.<\/p>\n
Remember that rarely to the human heart do I speak in words. Man will see Me in My works done through you, meet Me in the atmosphere of Love and self-effacement.\u00a0 Do not feel that you have to speak<\/p>\n
When man ceased to commune with his God simply and naturally, he took refuge in words\u2014words.\u00a0 Babel resulted.\u00a0 Then God wanted to do away with man from the earth.\u00a0 Rely less on words.\u00a0 Always remember that speech is of the senses.\u00a0 So make it your servant, never your Master.<\/p>\n
