Changes

I am ABRAHAM. Greetings. What a sweet spirit [[attitude]] we have here this evening. As I view each one of you, you appear to be a new [[creature]] to me. Even though many of you are extremely [[busy]] throughout the week, there is definitely an air of spirit refreshment about you.

When I review [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abraham my life in the mortal flesh] I always have such fond [[memories]] of [[Spring]]time on [[Urantia]]. The [[renewal]] in all things is so [[inspiring]] and motivating to make things better, do better, live better, love more, be more. I so admire children and their [[enthusiasm]] to greet the Spring sunshine, breathe in the fresh air and run barefoot through the grass. Children are for the most part motivated by the [[desires]] of their hearts. They [[awaken]] each day as if it were their very first day on earth.

As we [[become]] like the little children, we are [[learning]] to be dependent upon [[the Father]]'s [[guidance]]. Living on this experiential planet life has proven to harden some people. They are motivated in one way or another to fulfill their earthly [[obligations]], as if this will lead them to spiritual peace. While dwelling in the flesh you are certainly required to make your way in the world. As adults it is easy to be swept up in the rush to creating a life according to your own [[desires]] and perceptions of what you think is right. Certainly this is [[responsible]], no doubt, but it is only a life half lived.

You, children of this [[Correcting Time]], have volunteered to be the spokespersons for this cause. You have had a great deal of [[training]] lo these many years to spread the good news, to be representatives for [[Michael]]'s message. This time in the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_world world's history] is critical where you will be sought out for the [[energy]] you project to others. You have your Mission tasks which are helping others find their way back to a loving and kind God.

When you look at one another you can certainly [[agree]] that you each come for various walks of life, but most definitely are you the common people of [[Urantia]]. You easily relate to other people because of your life's [[experiential]] [[training]] and these lessons. You have an awesome [[opportunity]] to help direct the world's [[destiny]]. If you are so caught up in the adult world of [[responsibility]], it is most likely you feel the weight of the world on your shoulders. You proceed with your own [[thinking]], your own definition of events in life.

ABRAHAM: Yes. I want to see her on her [own] time, yes, I would think a [[visit]] with her would do her a great deal of good. She is in quite a state, but I can [[assure]] you that she will do better. Have her set an appointment to see me.

MIRIAM: Abraham, you know how you and [[the teachers]] say that this is a critical time? I usually sit on the side of [[faith]]. I saw [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerry_Falwell Jerry Falwell] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jesse_Jackson Jesse Jackson] on TV talking about the crisis in [[Israel]] and one of them wasn't doing a good job of listening. He was just going on and on about his position. He wasn't even listening to the other guy. The very next day at work I swear I had that same [[experience]] with a guy I work with. I was unable to see his point of view. I was so entrenched in my gig and I am not usually like that. So my question is--is the [[energy]] on the planet right now at a [[critical mass]] that it can either go positive or negative? Is it that crucial, brutal, or fragile right now that literally every single one of us is needed to promote positive energy? Does it have anything to do with [[energy]]?

ABRAHAM: It is that critical. It is that important that we are aware of our position in [[the Kingdom]]. This is the [[Correcting Time]] and the [[Spirit of Truth]] has infiltrated everything. This is bringing all [[dark]] things into the Light and that is creating a disturbance. As many are trying to keep dark things hidden, there are those defense [[mechanisms]] going into [[action]], also individual belief systems are being tested, and some are finding theirs to be empty or inadequate, outdated and without [[foundation]]. It is difficult for them to find where they fit into the mortal scheme. There is [[confusion]], yes, and this is an upset of energy. Many are choosing various negative activities to do away with that one [[decision]] they are faced with--to choose God or to choose [[self]], to live in the higher mind or to live with animalistic tendency. We are very close to gaining the [[majority]] of the world as [[faith]] believers in God, our Father. Another [[obstacle]] is the religions of old that require ridiculous [[sacrifices]] or demand individuals to live a life that is not [[ordained]] by God, but by themselves. This is [[pressure]]. This is confusion. Everyone is faced with all these challenges and this [[purification]] and this time of [[decision]]. This is why the Master said, "This is what you have so long waited for." This is our work. This is where we will help in the upstep toward [[Light and Life]], yes. Good question, Miriam. (Thank you, Abraham.)

CYNTHIA: Abraham, I have been away spiritually and emotionally for a lot of years now. I have [[faith]] in Michael and God, but I have not been able to get close. My [[prayers]] don't make sense. I have been going through a lot of religions, especially the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mormonism LDS {Latter Day Saints] church, and be pushed away. I don't know how I am going to be able to achieve my [[spiritual]] side. I would like to know some steps and how do I start?

ABRAHAM: Certainly. Child, you have already started. You are [[seeking]]. You are searching and there is no fault in that. You are finding your own way. Have [[trust]] in your ability to know [[truth]]. You are as any young individual in the Kingdom. You are testing the waters. This is wonderful. I am [[understanding]] you to feel on the outside. My first recommendation would be to [[ponder]] your [[status]] in the Kingdom. You are first and foremost Father's beloved child. You are a daughter of God. He loves you not with the love of an earthly father, but with the love of all [[eternity]]. He sees you as [[beautiful]] here and now. He sees you in your state of [[becoming]]. He cares not about your words of prayer but about the [[intentions]] in your heart. Talk to Him as if He were your closest friend. He is not a man--not even close. You would do well to reinvent your [[perception]] of Him, for He is more than even the most wonderful human being you know. He knows you. He loves you as if you were His only child. Start there. One more question.
