3. (Q) A few nights ago. I was entering a station to go away on a train. Crowds of people were inside, but grips and suitcases were sitting along on the outside and I put mine down, too, before going in. When I came back out I couldn't find my grip and was very worried, for I had some clothes in it that belonged to someone else, and it seemed even the grip didn't belong to me - But I decided to go ahead, but when I went back the train was gone. (A) In this emblematical condition there is presented to the body and to the mind, for the study of same, those conditions respecting the endeavors of the body pertaining to the efforts in the raising of money or capitalizing on the various conditions presented to the body from time to time. While each and every effort should be used, yet, as has been given, watch as well as pray. Seek and ye shall find, but keep that thou hast in hand - see? [Work:E.C.] [See Par. 7-A below.]

5. (Q) When will this arise? (A) Whenever the contention arises!
6. (Q) Does it refer to some specific condition to arise, or contention? (A) Refers to time - which may be one - as is all time. May occur at any time.
7. (Q) Regarding the first dream, should EC make the contemplated trip to the various cities? [See Par. 3-A above.] (A) Seek if ye would find. As has oft been given, these should contribute that as the nucleus for the building, and as these have not why not seek personally? for these, or many of these, may be influenced to contribute much.
8. (Q) Just what was meant by "keep what thou hast in hand?" (A) That meaning in the spiritual, not material sense. Do not so construct self by taking on that belonging to others, or others' thoughts, so that it hinders in the attempts of the body.
9. We are through for the present.
