5. The kingdom of heaven is like the father of a family, who
went out at daybreak in order to hire workers to work in his
vineyard. Having agreed with the workers that he would pay them one
denarius per day, he sent them to the vineyard. (Mt. 20: 1-2)
6. He went out again at the third hour of the day, and seeing
others who were in the square not doing anything, he said to them,
You go also to my vineyard and I will give you what is reasonable.
And they went there. Again, he went out at the sixth and ninth
hours of the day and did the same. And having gone out at the
eleventh hour, he found others who were without anything to do and
said to them, Why have you stood around all day without working?
They told him that it was because no one had hired them. He then
said to them, You too go to my vineyard.
7. Spiritists are all workers of the last hour. The one who
says, I began work at daybreak and I will finish only at nightfall
would be very proud. You all came when you were called some a
little earlier, some a little later to the incarnation whose
shackles you bear; however, for how many centuries has the Lord
been calling you to his vineyard, without your wanting to enter it!
Now is the time for you to receive your wages; employ the time you
have remaining well, and never forget that your existence, no
matter how long it may seem to you, is only a fleeting instant in
the immensity of time comprising eternity for you. Constantin (a
Protector Spirit)
8. Many, many spirits are trained here to spread hope and
consolation, and to provide instruction and counsel in the various
arenas of the planets evolution. I dont mean just invisible
emissaries, however. We also train tightly-knit groups for
reincarnation, and mediums and instructors leave here by the
hundreds every year. Those who will be involved in giving spiritual
comfort are trained by our Messenger Center and are sent to the
incarnate realms in considerable numbers.
9. Really?! According to what youre saying, their work of
providing spiritual enlightenment should have made a lot of headway
in the world by now! Andre Luiz
10. My dear Andre, you havent considered the fact that this
preparation in and of itself doesnt mean theyll be successful.
Thousands of qualified messengers leave here, but the ones who
actually succeed are rare indeed. Some manage to accomplish their
task partially, but most fail completely. Real service is not just
an idea; it involves effort, without which the work can neither
begin nor prevail. Ranks of mediums and instructors leave here for
the physical world with special training because benefactors in the
Higher Realms need selfless, altruistic mediums (collaborators) in
order to enhance humankinds redemption. Tobias
11. We committed to Jesus before diving into the flesh to serve
Him with resignation and devotion. We promised wed be faithful,
even if sacrifices were required. We are invited not only to the
applause, the enthusiasms, the joy, but also to the testimony, in
the silent landscapes of our soul, the testimony of love for those
who do not love us, the testimony of selflessness in helping those
who still take pleasure in trying unsuccessfully to hinder the
march of progress. April 18th 2010
12. Those messengers trained and prepared in the Spirit Plane,
forget their missionary spirit and their dedication to their fellow
beings, becoming worthless instruments. Just as there are plows and
farmers, there are mediums and mediumship, doctrinal instructors
and doctrine. A farmer may own an excellent plow, but if he lacks
the desire to use it, the only thing the plow will produce is rust.
The same applies to psychic faculties and great knowledge. Mediums,
instructors, children & youth educators, SPIRITISTS may be
endowed with a very powerful mediumistic ability, or other talents,
but if they cannot see beyond their own interests, they will
completely fail at their assigned task. Countless workers retreat
just at the moment when the task offers the most valuable
opportunity work carries with it its corresponding struggle. Those
who endure the hardships and setbacks of the front lines are very
rare indeed. TOBIA (The Messengers)
13. Lets be those Spiritist Spirits who demonstrate the
greatness of the love of Jesus in our lives; let others complain,
lament, and argue; we shall keep, in the intimacy of our soul, the
commitment to love and to love always, bringing Jesus back with all
the vigor of those days that go far and that are very close.
14. As far as my contribution and collaboration in the
Spiritist Center (and out) go, am I being a faithful servant so
that Spiritism can be that shining guiding light, or am I putting
my feelings and immediate desires first? Do I want to join the
vineyard?
15. At this moment, God is taking a census of his faithful
servants () and these words will be fulfilled: The first will be
last and the last will be first in the kingdom of heaven.
16. What can we do to acquire a perfect understanding of
Christs designs? Paul of Tarsus Course of Action for Spiritists
Love Work How can we proceed in order to grow richer in divine
virtues? Jesus ordered us to love even our enemies. What can we do
for our soul to reach such an elevated expression of effort in
Jesus Christ? What measures could we adopt against destructive
discouragement? Hope How are we to reconcile the grand lessons of
the Gospel with human indifference, injustices and difficulties?
Forgive

sons and daughters, waits for us. Let Love be our shield, our
tools. Let our life be a hymn of Love. Bezerra de Menezes LOVE WORK
