Greetings -

I do not know what is wrong sometimes.    OE (Outlook Express is the the mailer that should have received the message) should work since the pictures were in JPG format - a universal file type.   Perhaps you are not using OE, or you have an older copy of OE?  Do you have it set to view Rich Text  (HTML)?  -  look in the "Format" menu to see the setting)

Here is the unformatted text for you:

You Are Called Into Service

Certain persons in this teacher group have on numerous occasions expressed the view that the proposition of changing the world one person at a time is too implausible to be realistically achievable within any timeframe conceivable by humans. It has been posited that one teacher group per town will be insufficient, that a teacher for each neighborhood would be insufficient, and even that a teacher for each household would be insufficient - witness the resistance of certain members' lifemates to this effort.

While I am personally affronted by this expression of doubt, I am not personally offended by it. In fact, as you might guess, I welcome this as an opportunity to teach, for there is a lesson to be gained here. You humans forget that this one-person-at-a-time restriction works on both sides of the equation. It affects our efforts to carry on this ministry - it is a two way street.

Each of you can thank me later, as I am sure you shall, for here is the gift of my lesson to you: you are not personally responsible for the success or failure of this ministry. Neither are we teachers personally responsible for any failure. Nor shall any of us be covered in glory for its successes, however modest or extravagant. All of us - both sides - are in the same boat. Our obligation, each of us, is limited to serving the Father as we honestly divine His will to work through each event in life.

Do not trouble yourselves as to whether the Universal Father's plan will ultimately succeed, or whether its completion meets your personal assessment of timeliness. If you can do this, if you can accept the Father's pace, then we have some assignments for which you would qualify as candidates. If you can make your business God's business, then we have challenging opportunities in store for you.

Do not presume to measure God's progress; look rather to your own house. You fail to realize, because of your physical situation, what we know: You are the ministry. You are called upon in service to God and mankind. We are doing little. We expect you to do nearly everything.

We have only begun, and things are going well - look at the frankness and honesty of the exchanges we have developed at this shallow point. Now go and make mistakes in His service.

Action achieves strength; moderation eventuates in charm. The Urantia Book, Page 557
