I am ABRAHAM. Greetings and welcome. I [[thank]] you for allowing me to [[assist]] you in your [[morontial]] [[learning]]. You have made this [[communication]] possible through your [[faith]] and use of [[logic]]. You are shaping my lesson format. [[1996-07-01-The Passionate Scientist|We have discussed]] the [[practice]] of [[observing]] and [[reflecting]]. I say that as many observations are there to make there are that many [[scientists]] also to make them, scientists all reflecting [[different]] views. Join me in this exercise if you will.

In our [[imagination]] we come to a field. In this field are there many flowers, trees, shrubbery and [[animals]]. A stream runs through this field. We can stand back and view this entire field and take note of the various happenings. Perhaps we spot a deer drinking from this stream. Perhaps a bird that has landed to consume [[seeds]]. Possibly we can view the [[clouds]] overhead moving with the [[wind]]. As we stand back to view this lovely field we are observing its [[beauty]] as a whole. We are in [[understanding]] of its connection to the various elements of [[time and space]].

As we stand within the world and [[observe]] the inner workings do we [[reflect]] upon [[the whole]]. As our [[ideas]] are expanded do we begin to incorporate the [[Supreme Being]]. We begin to understand the effects of this world ripple out to the [[Supreme]] and then back again. I say this world now is [[feeling]] the effects of [[the Father]]'s rain upon them. The loving [[watch-care]] that all are valued. We are yet observing this world on another level and we reflect upon the Father's effects on us. This world [[experiences]] an awareness that Father is within our field. He nourishes us with His rain and yet the [[stream]] that is constant goes right through the middle of our field. We all prosper from our [[knowledge]] of knowing where to find the stream. I would ask you this week to [[reflect]] upon where this stream flows for you and its availability for use. I said there would be [[morontial]] lessons given. I am certain you are well equipped to [[understand]] them. I am open to [[receive]] any questions you might have.

CALVIN: Abraham, may I [[share]] my [[thoughts]] of this stream or would you rather us do that after the [[meeting]]? (Is there a particular question?) Yes. Would this stream be the waters of [[truth]], I guess would be the easiest way to put it, the stream part, or is there more [[meaning]]?

ABRAHAM: Yes. There is [[truth]] in that and yet we all contain within us this stream. It is a common thread that runs through all who contain [[mind]]. Yes. Our [[Father Fragment]] is with us. He is our stream that is so obvious and is so available, and yet, many find it [[difficult]] to locate this stream. I would also [[agree]] with the concept that the [[wind]] in our field is [[Michael]]'s [[influence]]. The wind [[strengthens]] the various living things of our field, and this is [[becoming]] more noticeable, along with the [[sunshine]] that could represent [[the Mother]] and Her various daughters, the [[angels]]. This [[reflection]] is entirely open for you to define and has no [[limits]]. It is possible that your [[definition]] of this exercise in [[observance]] and reflection may be subject to [[change]]. Does this help?

CALVIN: Yes. In such a field, just as in this [[life]], it contains weeds and thorns as well as the [[beauty]]. Is it a part of our [[experience]] of life or--I am sure people would go into this field and say there is sure a lot of weeds and thorns mixed in with the flowers. Others would say they don't see any weeds. I just see [[beautiful]] flowers. Are we to overlook the weeds and stuff or see them as [[necessary]] hardships?

ABRAHAM: Certainly. Weeds with a specific [[chemical]] make-up are designed by [[nature]] to [[attract]] various [[insects]] thus protecting the flowers. I say that [[mortals]] that sow various [[seeds]] of [[destruction]] also attract some negative [[feedback]] and this is educational for those involved. I would also say that [[adversity]] is not always the [[insects]], but lessons are [[learned]] just the same. Overall there is room in the [[soil]] for weeds and flowers. There is a [[connection]] in one anothers [[survival]] in this [[material]] life. Another question?

ROLAND: Abraham, it seems to me that the stream is the nurturer of [[all things]] that appear on [[Urantia]]. It is likened to the [[animals]], grasses, the flowers, weeds, trees. That could only [[symbolize]] the [[love]] [[energy]] from [[the Father]], which is the supporter of all (? Inaudible.)
