My Lovely Samael,
You are doing a superb job of guarding The Child, and providing an escape route, or alternate option, whenever those poor, scathing creatures from below attempt to divert his attention from what is Holy and Just to what is detestable and condemning. You are, indeed, correct in your assumption that The Enemy has been tugging on The Child’s understanding of what part of his life he truly owns. As we have witnessed, through multiple cases, many of The Children seem to unknowingly, and unintentionally come to the conclusion that they own the divine carriages of their souls and can, therefore, do with them whatever they please. Although I have complete faith in your competence, I simply must signify the importance of making it clear to The Child that he is not the sole owner of his body.
Whenever the world throws its “Your body, your choice; your life, your choice” campaign at him (and it will do so frequently, as he lives in an “It’s all about me” society), it is essential that you combat it with something to remind The Child that his mortal part is a holy gift from Our Father. There are a few different counterstrikes that could work here. The first is applicable to almost any situation, and that is to make sure that when The Child is reading the Holy Word, he takes away from it that which can be applied to his life accordingly. The second counterstrike I offer you is to get him to pray for the healing of others' physical injuries. This may seem slightly off-topic to you, but while he is praying to Our Father to heal his friend’s body, you can place it on his heart that he is praying to Our Father to heal a body that He, Himself created. This should inevitably point out to The Child that since Our Father created the body, the body belongs to Him.
Along with falling under the misconception that they are the sole owners of their bodies, The Children often mistake the time they have in every day as their own. The Enemy is known for taking advantage of the ignorance of The Children, and turning it into other things much more devastating to their relationship with Our Father. There are two main reasons why, as Angelic beings, this is a tad more difficult for us to help The Children with. The first reason is that because we are not familiar with the concept of time, it is hard for us to understand why, since it’s not tangible, they feel that they own it. The second reason is that it is quite obvious that everything we have is from Our Father, and everything they have is from Our Father, so again, it is hard for us to understand why they feel an entitlement to it. However, even with these minor disadvantages, you can still protect Our Child from falling into the trap that the Enemy has set for him.
Whenever a slave of the Enemy begins to cram things into his life so that he has no free time, no time to focus on Our Father, and no charitable time left, you must put it on his heart to leave some time (even if it’s just a few minutes a day) for the sake of what is Good and Holy. When this fails to work, The Child will likely become irritable when people interrupt his free-time or ask him for favors. Do not be dismayed! All you have to do is make it apparent to The Child that he is becoming agitated over something that he would otherwise not think twice about doing. This will “Raise a few red flags,” as The Children, and the inhabitants of their temporary home, like to say. Once the red flags are raised, it means he has realized his mistake in assuming ownership of time, and the dangers of becoming too attached to it; you will have won that battle - congratulations!
In conclusion, I will leave you with two simple rules to abide by, and your care for The Child should become that much easier. Rule number one is to keep The Child away from an attitude of entitlement, and rule number two is to never, ever get discouraged if it takes a while for The Child to change his ways. Be persistent, and he will come around. Remember, you have Our Father on your side; nothing can stand against you! I am very pleased with your progress and commitment.
Your Dearest Uncle,
Gabriel
