Hello to everyone and I wish for you a blessed springtime. I love this time of year as God demonstrates for us the beauty and renewal of life. If you look around your world I am sure you can find many opportunities for gratitude at what you and God have created for your life. You are a co-creator with God, so be careful what you are focusing on, as you will begin creating that experience in your present and future life.

Begin manifesting a future of empowerment with positive thoughts and actions.   

Please forgive me in the delay of our newsletter. Abraham has kept me extremely busy with work, travel, classes and workshops. They obviously forget that I am still in physical body with it's limitations but we work as diligently as possible.  

We just returned from a wonderful trip to New Jersey and we look forward to returning the the East coast in September and October so watch our website for new events.   

I ask that you continue to hold the citizens of Japan in your prayers. I now hope that you will include the many people across our country who have suffered tremendous losses due the tornadoes and  flooding. Your prayers are so powerful  in providing them with the strength and support needed at this time.   

Love an Light

I am Abraham and We greet you with LOVE.                            We wish to continue addressing the importance of relationships for your life. We will teach at this time of intimate relationships but hope to expand knowledge to all others. Whether you have an  intimate partner in your life at this time or not the information we share will benefit you. The intimate relationship of love that you share with your partner derives from the same emotional needs you initially experienced with family; but has the opportunity of creating a more intricate web of experiences.

Your relationships give you the opportunity to experience the emotional lessons of your issues. A relationship involves a tremendous amount of work with many moments of joy and despair.

If you expect a relationship without pain, struggle and work you will be disappointed, as most relationships present you with the opportunity of growth because of the work they require. A successful, healthy relationship is well worth the work. We see many of you as being driven to find the elusive "perfect" relationship involving the love of your life. Have you asked yourself what the "perfect" relationship looks like. You were created with an instinctive emotional need to feel loved, this is why so many of you are attracted  to and addicted to that feeling of emotional support and the expectation of marital bliss. There is the hope of your relationship  meeting your needs with patience, compassion, understanding, good communication  and work. 

At the heart of your existence is the desire to be loved and have the intimacy to fulfill your physical and emotional needs. The union of a marriage or a relationship of commitment is desired with the intent of  meeting those very needs.   

All too often we observe relationships that are unhappy and unstable because each partner is lacking in an understanding of the others needs as well as their own needs.

When you enter into a relationship and "fall in love" with someone, it is frequently experienced on the physical and emotional level. You may experience the lust and excitement of a heart pounding love or it may be experienced in a more secure, comforting sense of love.

For everyone love can mean different things, as you all have different needs and are searching for the kind of love that meets and fulfills your particular needs. Before you can truly receive your definition of love you must first understand what your needs are.  

That is often the problem that occurs in relationships of all types. The individual's needs for love are seldom clearly understood by either party, without extensive interaction and communication.  

It is beneficial for both parties to establish a healthy relationship with them self and understand their own needs. This work with yourself is necessary before giving someone else the responsibility of meeting your undefined needs for love. This mistake is why so many relationships experience tremendous struggle when there truly is the potential for a healthy relationship.  

The aspects of love are present but guidance and patience is needed to build a strong foundation that can withstand the trials and tribulations of a long term relationship. The understanding of self love is essential and the journey of self discovery is the beginning of all healthy relationships.

If you are never taught about love it remains a mysterious and allusive sense of emptiness and yearning. If this is your situation we are sure you understand our purpose and persistence in teaching about love.

Fully understanding your journey up to this point in your life is a critical part of the healing process. And we refer to this process of self discovery as a healing. We will expand more on the healing process later in our teachings. We suggest that you begin a journal while reviewing your life experiences and revealing your journey of self discovery. Do you know what your definition of love is? How would you like love demonstrated to you in your relationships? How do you show love and compassion to yourself?  Begin by starting a list of your desires and needs in each of your significant relationships.    

Next month we hope to continue on the journey of self discovery.  

I am Abraham
