WILL: The love of God surrounds you. The love of God upholds you. The love of God enfolds you. Wherever you are, He is.

WILL: The [[love]] of [[God]] [[surrounds]] you. The love of God upholds you. The love of God enfolds you. Wherever you are, He is.

Greetings, I am Will. I am sorry that I could not be with you yesterday, I was away on assignment, but you were well cared for in my absence. It isn't often that I will be unavailable, but it will happen. What did you think of your new teacher? He was very special to come and talk with you. We all have very busy schedules, and it is always nice when one outside of our immediate team can lend a helping hand. He is well versed on what we are doing, so is quite capable of handling whatever comes up. There may be times in the future when he may address you, so I invite you to be on the look out. He is a very cordial personality and one quite willing to lend a helping hand whenever necessary.

We all look after each other just the way we have asked you all to learn to do. We learn to work in harmony and in groups that form exceptionally good teams. Whatever comes along, anyone of us could step in at any minute and take over. It is quite common, for there are many opportunities for redirecting the comments to others so that they can relay them to you. Perhaps you would like to begin a fresh page and I will dictate something you can take to the group. WILL: My greetings to you all gathered here tonight. I talked with Melissa earlier in the week and asked her to relay this lesson to you. We have so much to cover, that I feel we are unable to do so in one sitting a week. Therefore it behooves us to subsidize our Sunday night lessons with "mini" lessons during the week. Many of you have already been reading more in the Urantia book and this is good. I want you to continue this and absorb all you can. You must be ready to do anything that the Father asks you to do. He will be ever at your side with whatever strength you will need for the task, so you never need feel like you are alone in your pursuits. It only takes a minute of your time for you to ask for the Father's guidance and He is right there giving you whatever you need. Be aware that the Father will have many tasks for you. Some you may feel are more difficult that others, but if you sit down and ask for the help you need, it will always come, whether related to work, family or recreational activities. You may not always win, but you will have a much better attitude about the whole activity. Rest assured that the Father is guiding you, and you need not be concerned about being led astray. You have much more help than you could ever imagine. He is everywhere guiding, correcting and urging you to take the risk to try new things.

There is nothing wrong in attempting to [[enlighten]] yourself about things [[spiritual]] if your [[heart]] is firmly planted in the [[soil]] of life. [[Our Father]] will [[water]] those [[ideas]] and give you sustenance while you [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germination germinate] into a full blown bulb. One flowers only under [[the Father]]'s [[guidance]], and He will bring you forth from the [[darkness]] into the [[light]] with your blossoms ready to behold the [[rays]] of day. Those rays contain the teachings of [[the Father]] and, if you are [[persistent]], you will find that you will clearly be led to find the Father in a way unimaginable to you now. You have not yet begun to even scratch to [[surface]] of what is waiting--it is all so [[exciting]]. Forever is your [[journey]] made [[progressive]] by the way you strive to know the Father yourself. The harder you [[work]], the more will be [[revealed]] to you. Those who are on a [[spiritual]] [[path]] will be given every [[opportunity]] to find what they seek. It will be a [[labor]] of [[love]]. Rest [[assured]] the Father loves you. Rest [[assured]] that He will take every [[opportunity]] you give Him to build a closer [[relationship]] with Him, for only in this way can you truly [[understand]] what lies ahead and the [[glories]] of the One who [[loves]] you the most. If you love [[the Father]], love those who are His children. If you truly love the Father, love those who strive with you and you will find that all things will open up to you in a very special way.

[[God]] is with you--never [[forget]] that. Be [[conscious]] of this every minute of every day and that will help you to [[radiate]] that [[love]] out to others you meet. It is [[difficult]] to contain such love when it is overflowing in your own [[countenance]]. Rest [[assured]] you are loved. Pass that love on to others and watch their [[reaction]]. You will be [[amazed]]. Lift the spirits of those around you and you can help them in a very special way. [[Love]] others always.
