TARA: Good morning! I have had a feeling that there is something you want us to know.
TARA: Good [[morning]]! I have had a [[feeling]] that there is something you want us to know.
The thought has been ringing in my head that, “the truth shall set you free.”

Is that what you want to communicate, for in truth, since I have been reading the Urantia Book,

I have felt free in thought of mind and actions in my daily life? This sense of freedom and clarity feels so great!
I have felt free in [[thought]] of [[mind]] and [[actions]] in my daily life? This sense of [[freedom]] and [[clarity]] feels so great!
BERTRAM: I am your teacher Bertram, coming to assist you in your thought patterns this fine snowy morning. It is my pleasure to be with you in this manner once more.

Yes indeed, little one, [[growth]] in the [[spirit]], in the “[[fruits of the spirit]],” contribute to a new found sense of [[freedom]] in the mind and in the spirit, which do indeed [[translate]] into new actions and deeds which you would never have [[dare]] tried before. This is what [[the Master]] was referring to when he taught you regarding “the [[renewing]] of your minds” by the power of His [[Spirit of Truth]].
Indeed, the Spirit of Truth does lead you into all [[truth]], if you yield to it in your willingness to be [[guided]] by it. An open and child-like mind [[attitude]] can be taught, but a [[rebellious]] and closed mind is, indeed, a rocky place to sow [[seeds]] of truth. Remember the Masters much quoted [[151:1 The Parable of the Sower|parable of the sower]]? These precious seeds of truth need the right conditions in which to sprout and grow into full [[realization]], which [[eventually]] leads to the full fruitation of [[God Consciousness]] and actions of loving [[service]].
Your evolving and [[awakening]] [[soul]] within needs daily nourishment in the truth of God’s [[revelation]] to you, and so do we ever advise you to continue in your [[studies]] of the Fifth Revelation sent to you by the [[authority]] of [[Christ Michael]] Himself! He has not only shown you His [[truth]], that portion understandable by you now in this age, He has also sent His [[Teaching Mission]] to aid you in that [[understanding]]. We [[your teachers]] are here to serve you in [[love]], desiring only your [[soul growth]] in [[faith]] in the “truths of God” and the resulting [[growth]] in the “[[fruits of the spirit]],” which soon become the natural outgrowth of living and loving in your daily, [[transformed]] lives. This transformation is indeed that new found freedom of which you spoke.
It is rewarding [[sight]] for us to behold, and indeed, all your heavenly helpers [[agree]], when we see an evolving child of God come to the [[realization]] of their sense of being set free!
*When they come to realize that they do live in a loving and friendly [[universe]] and have absolutely nothing to [[fear]].
*When they realize all is going according to [[plan]], that there is indeed a divine plan in action, and that they are not forgotten, even while reeling and rocking on a planet which seems to be on a certain [[course]] of [[destruction]].
*When they [[realize]] they are loved and adored by their [[51:6|Heavenly Fathers]] and that they will for their children’s success and achievement in finding them, in [[spirit]] and in [[reality]].
*When they realize [[salvation]] is [[assured]] if they keep on in [[faith]], in their [[earnest]] and sincere pursuit of it.
*When they realize that [[death]] is not the end but only the beginning, second [[stage]] so to speak.
*When they realize that all the [[trials]] and [[struggles]] of life are not in vain, but are actually there for [[soul growth]].
*When they realize that life can be lived with an [[appreciation]] of [[truth, beauty, and goodness]].
Yes, yes, yes indeed are you set free! Set free from the shackles of [[superstition]], feelings of [[isolation]], despair, depression, [[darkness]], helplessness, loneliness, fearfulness.
Not only are you coming into a personal era of [[light and life]], of [[enlightenment]] but also lightness! [[Christ Michael]], Himself said, His yoke was easy and His burden was light.
Do you not [[understand]] now, a little more about the [[truth]] setting you free? For, now indeed, is your life free, and light and [[joyful]] and more [[happy]], with [[purpose]] and [[direction]] and [[clarity]] of [[destiny]]. Daily difficulties are viewed now as [[challenges]] to overcome, and [[growth]] to be achieved.
You see, for in [[understanding]] yourself and God’s plan for all His children and your part in that plan, there comes that peace of mind that we do indeed, “live and move and have our being in Him!”
It is indeed a [[wonderful]] age in which you are now living, even with all its [[difficulties]], but you can make a [[difference]].
So again I [[admonish]] you, be ever [[faithful]] and true to what you are being taught and continue to [[grow]] in the “[[fruits of the spirit]]” so that they will become a natural part of you life and [[personality]] and will so continue with you always as you [[ascend]] home.
I am ever in your service, in the loving service of [[Christ Michael]], our [[Master Son|sovereign]] and Lord.
Ever your teacher and friend, Bertram.
