When you say you love someone do not hide behind a façade of untruth. Neither must you look at the imperfect physical and mental attributes of the one you love. True love accepts all that is imperfect.

*August 21, 2014
*Subject: My Seventh Bestowal
The Urantia Book considers August 21 as my official birth date on Urantia. It was a special day for me because it was the day when I finally arrived in this world. This was my personal choice. Urantia was to be the planet of my Seventh Bestowal. It’s a little planet but one that I loved so much and cared for as the Creator Son of the Universe of Nebadon. It was so backward and unilluminated that I wondered if I ever would succeed in the mission that my brother, Immanuel, entrusted to me. It was a huge undertaking and such a big risk because there were so many concerns about this planet that drew the attention of many in the realms of the Universal Father. But I dismissed their concerns, because you, my little ones, were the faces I saw and heartbeats I heard. You were far from understanding reality, and yet I knew that one day there would be many who would listen to my voice and heed my teachings.
The Paradise Father was behind me in my decision and from then on it was all systems go. It was excruciating because, although the evolution of the planet was the ideal setting, there was much anxiety in the existing human kingdoms of the time. The Jews were under the rulership of the Romans but these people were the choicest group of people who we (Gabriel and I) knew would provide the best backdrop in the plan of salvation. The Paradise Deities knew my incarnation was a gamble, and if I could pull it off it would be a dream come true. Remember, I was to reveal the Truth about the Living God and this Truth was not something that was going to be simple to spell out to the Jews living at that time. I took that risk and do you believe that I was able to overcome the odds? This grand design of coming to your world to establish the Kingdom of Heaven is a dream come true.
It has taken two millennia. but Urantia will become the greatest little planet in Nebadon. I love Urantia – it is the planet of my bestowal and I love you, the people of Urantia. I dreamt of you for so many, many, years in order to ascertain my heart with regard to just what had to be done on Urantia, when the health of the planet became blackened and the hearts of the people turned against the spirit of the land. And now that dream will come to reality with the arrival of the Magisterial Son. Do you see now how I carefully set out the plan of salvation? Everything has its place and is a delicate part of the design. Even your own little lives play out so beautifully in this wonderful drama of love. You are amazed at the intricate details of your life? It is my masterpiece of love dear little ones - there are no coincidences. This is the impetus for the song that was sung in my presentation in the temple as a babe and Simon and Anna the poetess wrote the poem that graced my coming to Urantia: [[122:9 The Presentation in the Temple|Song of Simeon]]

*Subject: The Bread of Life
Michael of Nebadon speaks: During the last days of my life here in Urantia, there was a kind of confrontation at the synagogue in Capernaum, where leaders of the Sanhedrin came from as far as Jerusalem and had gathered so they could personally hear me speak what to their minds were blasphemous teachings against the traditional Jewish oral laws. After making me read the sermon from Deuteronomy these righteous men continuously hounded me with questions about their laws which were meant to trap me. I knew very well what their intentions were and I said everything they wanted to hear and more.
I spoke to them of the hypocrisy of their old ways, their greed for material things, the perversion of their minds and more importantly how they misunderstood the Truth my Father stood for. They were naturally incensed and their egos decided right there and then that I had to be permanently stopped. This is the ‘ego’ consciousness derived from the Lucifer Rebellion but much of this thinking comes from mortal man’s own twisted sense of what is the true will of the Father.
Whenever you are in doubt, beset by problems and anything that causes you anxiety, come to Me, for my burden is light and my yoke is easy. Never stray far from Me for I am the Good Shepherd and I will lead you back to goodness, beauty and truth. I have often and continuously said these things and I say them again to you today.
Did I not also say that I have come to gather the lost sheep? As I sat there in the synagogue, even as my words repeatedly went against the grain of the minds of those who were present then including my own disciples who were not yet strong in the faith, I also knew there would be millions of lost sheep, of souls, that needed to find their way back to the Heavenly Father and that I will have to work hard to find them. This is why I said I would forgive and show mercy to all sinners who sin from unrighteousness of mind except one: the deliberate and wicked intent to blaspheme the Father as the doer will not even seek forgiveness but will eternally reject divine Mercy.
The goodness of God is perceived through the goodness of your heart. The God Spark within you is always calling you and showing you ways and means for you to make a wise decision, for you to choose the higher path. If indeed it is the harder choice, know that this will lead to even better things as the path of spirit is not always clearly seen.
These words are from My spirit and will give you the true Bread of life. Heed these words of eternal life and become ambassadors of goodwill, seeking and establishing the brotherhood of men in the Kingdom of God in the coming era of Light and Life. I am Michael.
