Daniel: "Greetings my dear students, I am Daniel, your guide, teacher, and friend. I am pleased to be here with you this week to converse with you and hear your sharing. It is, indeed, a grand time to be on planet Urantia. While the struggles of the mortal life continue,the awakenings of spiritual life increase and are becoming a force that this planet of inhabitants will embrace, that will bring forth change and joy.

===Lesson===
 
This evening I will speak to you about reflection. I ask that this word be a part of your thoughts this week, that you reflect upon the many and varied aspects of your lives and the lives of your loved ones. The aspects that I would ask you to consider are these things: reflect upon love; reflect upon unity; reflect upon goodness; reflect upon understanding; reflect upon those attributes that you find to be of the greatest esteem for yourself and your loved ones. These reflections should bring you to a higher and greater perspective and comfort in the overall care of the First Source and Center.

Those who continue to desire the Father's will in their life understand and know the necessity for reflection. This exercise is given to you as a precursor to other lessons that are being prepared. And so enjoy this time but do not underestimate the importance of gathering all those wondrous strengths that you and yours have. Realize these strengths are part of the overall plan that will enable a paradigm shift in consciousness for this planet. My words are complete for this evening in this regard. Are there any questions? (long silence) Reflecting already, are we?"

===Dialogue===
 
Carla: "Daniel, what I'm hearing you say is that reflection is such an important part of preparation for living life to the fullest, for addressing whatever befalls us, as well as to provide the sustenance and strength for what I hear coming as some hard work. Is that right?"

The First Source and Center recognizes each of you by your many and brilliant attributes. Each human has potential. As the mortal passes through the days of life this potential is greatly enhanced, becomes manifested more and more. Especially is it manifested in those who work to know the First Source and Center, those who work to understand the purpose of life, those who work to bring forth a greater world, those who are able to rise above the trials of life to see a greater whole, those who forgo the immediate gratification of the moment for the growth and upliftment of all, those who work toward peace, those who work toward healing, those who work toward teaching, those who work toward serving in many areas. All are recognized by the First Source and Center. The attributes are all those that are positive, forward moving, and right. The negative aspects are not recognized.

===Closing===
 
It is not the importance of what you can incur materially, academically, monetarily on this planet that is important. What is important is the fruits of life that you give to one another. This is the aspect that the Teaching Mission puts forth. It calls upon you to be active in bringing forth the joy and the greatness of each individual you meet. As you seek to discover the goodness, as you seek to discover that which is unifying, then you will be adding to the Supreme which is in the overcare of the First Source and Center. May your reflections aid in your understanding of another aspect of the Father. My love and peace. Good evening."
