TARA: I humbly request your [[guidance]] this evening on behalf of my friend, who desires a higher [[perspective]] regarding her [[marriage]] and her [[feelings]] regarding her [[husband]]s attractiveness to other women, and their [[attraction]] to him. Can you please respond to this request?
MALCOM: Yes little one, we will respond, but you must both be [[aware]] that we can not tell one what to do in ones life [[choices]]. The [[free will]] of man is [[supreme]] and lessons learned in any kind of [[relationship]] is for [[soul growth]], for the [[growth]] of each one involved in that relationship.
All life is lived in [[relationship]] to one another, from [[birth]] to [[death]] and of course, beyond. You will always be learning those lessons needful for you at any given time throughout this life and throughout your [[Ascension Career|ascent to Paradise]].
[[Life]] is a living, ongoing [[process]], a progression. [[Blessed]] is the child of God who [[understands]] this [[truth]], this plan of God for them and that, in itself, enables you to view your own life from that higher [[perspective]] sought tonight. It allows you to rise above your [[problems]], to not “sweat the small stuff ” Is that the popular phrase these days? You have now a greater understanding of your [[humanness]] with all it’s [[weaknesses]] with it’s [[fears]] and conditioning. Do you understand?
Though you friend is growing [[spiritually]], to our delight indeed, well does she know and feel her [[humanness]] and like all of God’s children in the [[light]], realizes her imperfections of the [[mortal]] state. To be [[anxious]] and concerned over her [[observations]] concerning her [[husband]] is understandable. While in the mortal state, none are [[perfect]] and all have their weaknesses and failings to overcome, but also their [[strong]] points to draw upon also. Nor are God’s children perfect upon reaching the shores of [[mansonia]] after this mortal life has run its [[course]].
You will forever be in [[relationship]] with those you [[love]] here. The important thing is to love one another and to dwell on the positive [[attributes]] of your loved ones, those closest and dearest to you. See your [[mates]] also as your spiritual brothers and sisters with whom you have joined to be in [[intimate]] [[relationship]] for this brief period of your lives in the flesh.
All belong to [[the Father]] first and above all. Your [[mate]] does not belong to you, neither are you to be in [[control]] of their lives, though you [[share]] the marital state. Each is a [[free will]] son or daughter of [[the Father]] You have chosen to love one another and to [[share]] your lives together and in that day by day choosing, you remain in your [[marital]] state by mutual [[agreement]]. Herein do you learn lessons of loving [[service]] and confiding [[trust]], [[patience]], [[perseverance]], [[respect]], [[friendship]], [[companionship]], [[loyalty]], [[forgiveness]], etc. Greatest of all, the lesson of family [[unity]] and love, lessons of [[fatherhood]], [[motherhood]] and [[brotherhood]].
[[Urantia]] has not been the most stable of planets to foster these lessons due to the [[Lucifer rebellion]] and [[Caligastia’s betrayal]], that of your first [[planetary prince]]; then the [[Adamic default]], and right down to your time of [[suffering]] in your societies still stumbling in [[darkness]] without a clear understanding of [[Michael]]’s [[truths]] and teachings which He personally delivered to you.
We would [[desire]] that your friend take [[comfort]] in the love of [[the Father]] for all His children and of course for herself and her [[husband]]. In coming to truly [[love]] and understand the true and living God and His [[purpose]] for your life, then do you have the [[foundation]] to love Him, yourself and others, and so coming from this higher [[reality]] of life, live above your [[human]], mortal [[fears]] and [[anxieties]].
By showing [[love]] and being love, then will love be returned to you and you will be [[strong]] under His banner, under His blanket of [[security]], within [[the Kingdom|His kingdom of peace]].
All [[relationships]] are arenas of [[learning]] and [[growing]] in [[love]]. [[Marriage]] is the most challenging of all relationships, especially on a world such as yours. There are [[forces]] and circumstances ever at work influencing the [[stability]] of these unions, often beyond the [[control]] of all parties but their [[marriages]] must be worked on and flooded with [[love]] and the Father’s [[blessings]]. Show yourselves loving, [[compassionate]] [[partners]]. Do all you can for the [[health]] and viability of your union and then [[trust]] in the love and [[integrity]] of your [[partner]]. Each must be given room for their own [[soul growth]] and evolving [[maturity]] as [[children of God]]. In having all in a proper [[perspective]], then do you see for yourself from that higher perspective of love and [[understanding]].
Each and everyone of God’s children have their own [[beautiful]] qualities of attractiveness and this will be more so as you [[ascend]] and [[grow]] in spirithood. Appreciate the finer qualities you see in your [[mate]] and be not [[surprised]] that others see those same qualities also. Have [[faith]] and [[trust]] in the love and integrity of your [[partner]]. Again we repeat this [[admonition]]. Do not let the ugly head of [[jealousy]] and insecurity rise up between you, for in doing so do you drive your [[partner]] away, not because of the [[attraction]] but because of your own negative [[reaction]] and growing lack of [[trust]]. Always strive to establish a [[home]] [[warmed]] by [[love]] and [[trust]] so as to become a safe [[refuge]] from the [[trials]] and [[temptations]] without.
When all is all is said and done, and a [[marriage]] still fails in unfaithfulness or for whatever reason of human [[failing]], you must rise above and go on, [[assimilating]] the lessons learned and release all into [[the Father]]’s [[care]].
[[Life]] does go on, to better and better life as you [[ascend]] and go forward in your lessons of life in this earth [[school]].
Though we most certainly do not tell you what to do in your personal circumstances, we do [[hope]] this message [[leads]] to that higher [[perspective]] sought, and has brought [[peace]] of [[mind]], of [[heart]] and of [[soul]] to your seeking friend, this night.
Your teacher and friend, Malcom.
