This will be the first of several holiday messages from The Council pertaining to Christmas. During the more than 40 years that William LePar channeled The Council they made it a point to give a special message to the Research and Study Group each year at the trance nearest to the holiday. This is the one from 1986.

The Council

In a short period of time all of you will celebrate the season of Christmas, the season when the world recognizes a Consciousness entered the material world that was far greater than it had known before in its recorded history. We ask each of you that when that season stimulates the attitude of love and sharing in you, that you do not allow that attitude to fade away in some cold breeze of time, but that you continue that attitude with you for the rest of the year.

If your world is to improve, it can only improve with each one of you, and it will only improve to the degree that each of you wish to improve. Each of you are a vital, productive part of tomorrow. Each of you control a very important aspect of tomorrow's future, of your world's future. Be sure that that point in the future, that condition in the future that you have control over, ends up being a positive situation. Allow the real, loving you to be expressed through that physical container that you use to grow with. Do not let the world keep you in your little hiding place. Reach out with an open hand. When one gives, one gives with an open hand, therefore it is in the right position to also receive. A person with a clenched fist gives nothing and receives nothing. An outward stretched hand has much to give and much to receive.
