Changes

There is no easy [[answer]]. There are no [[magic]] [[wands]]. There is the day in and day out of living, of [[experiencing]], of [[growing]]. Those who build a [[spiritual]] [[foundation]] will find that the [[vicissitudes]] of life are manageable, not likeable at all times, but manageable! Spiritually you [[understand]] [[joy]] and you will understand, also, the [[necessity]] for working through [[challenges]] of day to day living. Be [[assured]], all of you, that work is being done on this side and on [[Urantia]] by many [[humans]] who are called, who heed [[the call]], who are working to bring about [[change]]. Recall [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=1995-04-14-Key_To_A_New_Life#Closing Abraham's words of last week]. Fear not, you are not [[alone]]!"

Bill: "Thank you very much. Just one last question on this. Does that mean I give no [[thought]] to the [[fact]] that there seems to be a [[problem]] with [[birth]] [[rate]] in this country right now, and that it isn't the more [[intelligent]] or able people who are having the most kids, it is the other way around. Shouldn't that be something that people become [[aware]] of before we can do anything about [[changing]] it? I thought that this was a [[fair]] thing to point out just because it is a [[reality]] that isn't [[promising]]. Should I not worry about that or what?"([[110:4110:4.6]])

Bill: "Well, I will certainly not try to carry the weight of the world on my shoulders. So...[[everything]] you said I fully agree with. Thank you for [[reiterating]] that. I am sure we all [[share]] this [[Darkness|gloomy]] [[mood]] this week. It is certainly true of my [[friends]] at the [[school]] where I work. So thanks for your [[encouragement]], Daniel. I [[appreciate]] it."

Tomas: "I would add that earlier in the evening's [[discussions]] [[reference]] was made to the powerful [[energies]] which were resident and [[emanating]] from your political [[capital]], your [[government]] center. And that political power is captivating and [[intriguing]]. Many have succumbed to its power and you are in some sense [[feeling]] a strong [[alignment]] with that aspect of yourself which seeks [[action]] and [[resolution]]. This is an innate part of the [[politics]] of the human animal.
