TARA: Lorne has asked me to request a response from you for a higher [[perspective]] regarding the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yugoslav_Wars#War_crimes Kosovo/Yugoslavian atrocities] now occurring. What should be our response to this situation and how can we be of benefit to these our brothers and sisters [[suffering]] there?
BERTRAM: It is Bertram here this evening. I will follow up on what Malcom has already [[expressed]] to you some days ago. This is indeed a [[crisis]] of grave proportions for not only the unfortunates ones caught up in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yugoslav_Wars this war], but for all who look on. The [[hosts of heaven]] are indeed aware of this growing proliferation of [[evil]] upon [[your planet]]. The suffering is grave and thousands are perishing.
What can you, who are the very children of the living God, do? Yes, of course, [[pray]].
Do you not [[believe]] that [[the Father]] would surely here your [[voice]] and your [[petition]] for your brothers and sisters suffering so? The Father loves each and everyone of you. He will surely [[act]] on behalf of your brethren via your requests. He will answer as it will benefit all affected, to the best [[ultimate]] outcome for all His children. Truly realize the [[power]] of your single request, of your joint requests of your study [[group]], of the combined requests of those in your [[churches]], of those in your [[communities]], and throughout your [[nations]], throughout [[your world]].
Will this coming time of dire [[correction]] be a [[turning point]] for all nations?
What can you, who are the very children of the living God, do? Yes, of course, pray.
What will it take for your world to be so filled-up with [[violence]], that you will do something about it?
When will you eradicate [[violence]] from even your [[homes]]? From your T.V. programs, from your video games, from the [[movies]] you watch, from within your very [[relationships]]?
When will [[your world]] begin to so desire [[peace]] and make it such a [[reality]], that [[war]] will be no more than a [[memory]] in your [[ancient]] texts?
What will it take to lift your [[beautiful]] planet above and out of the mire of [[hate]] and [[war]], [[evil]] and [[rebellion]]?
This is, indeed a time of dire [[correction]]!
What will it take for your world to be so filled-up with violence, that you will do something about it?
What will transpire will be for the [[ultimate]] benefit of all. [[Urantia]] will indeed, go through a [[trial]] of cleansing and [[renewal]] before the age of [[light and life]] finds fulfilment here.
In your [[prayer]], pray that [[the Father]]’s will will be done. Even your Lord and Master, [[Michael]], allowed the will of the Father to be done, even in the [[violence]] of his own [[death]] at the hands of evil men. The ultimate [[good]] was transpiring, though hard to [[understand]] and [[conceive]] in the [[mind]] of [[mortal]] men. So we would [[admonish]] you again in your [[prayers]], pray that the Father’s will be done. And then [[trust]] that, that is what is transpiring. Lessons do indeed need to be learned even nationally and globally.
Be [[courageously]] [[loyal]] to your Father [[Michael]], to the [[Universal Father]], to the [[Mother Spirit]], to the [[Magisterial Son|merciful Paradise Son]].(?) [[Trust]] in their eternal [[love]] and [[overcare]] of [[your planet]] home.
A [[new age]], a new dispensation is about to come upon you. You are indeed going to go through the [[birth]] pangs of its deliverance to you.
Now we would [[encourage]] you to do all you can to alleviate the [[suffering]] of those in need, coming out of this [[adversity]]. What can you give by way of aid, [[clothing]], [[food]] to those who come to your nation for [[refuge]]? Remember your calling to loving [[service]]. [[Share]] what you have with these, your brethren in need. Continue to offer your [[prayers]], do what you can to supply their needs.
[[Pray]] that this war will soon come to an end and these [[families]] can be rejoined once more. Indeed, pray for[[ the Father]]’s [[intervention]], for He hears your prayers and will answer according to His will. Then [[confidently]] [[trust]] and leave the outworking in His hands. All the world is watching, the [[celestial hosts]] are watching and will indeed act when commissioned to do so.
I will depart now, [[confident]] you will all be [[guided]] into beseeching [[prayer]], enduring [[faith]], and [[actions]] of loving [[service]].
Your guide and teacher, Bertram.
