===Opening===
 
Prayer: Dear Mother Spirit and Michael, Mother, tonight we would like to celebrate Your contribution to life on Urantia, by recalling it was Your breath that breathed the spark of life into the as-yet inert protoplasm assembled by Your Life Carrier Sons. Then it was the active guidance of Your Adjutants of Mind/Spirit, daughter of the Infinite Spirit, that gave direction to the evolution of life over those millions and millions of years. And as each of us individually recapitulates evolution, it is these self-same dimensions of Your mind that provide the differential urge for our minds to mature, to grow in intuition, knowledge, understanding, courage, curiosity, companionship, worship, and wisdom. And so we thank You most humbly. Amen.

===Lesson===
 
NEBADONIA: My dear sons, this is your Mother, Nebadonia. Let Me reply and say, you’re most welcome! Michael and I often use the word delight, for that is the closest English approximation to your effect on Us. You are a small beacon of spiritual light glowing in Our firmament; you are all so many individual stars, each with your own spiritual radiance bursting out, glowing, right from God’s original creation that was, and continues to become, you. We marvel at this gift of our Father’s, both your personality—unique in all creation—and then, like a double-star, the fragment of our Father that comes indwell your mind and be your closest of companions all through your human life, looking forward to the day when the two of you become one single being of eternal life. This is as perceptible to Us and to Our celestial children as physical light is to your human eyes.

But I tease you enough with what is to come. If you have any questions or comments this evening, that is something we can do right now.

===Dialogue===
 
Student: Mother, is there any guidance or suggestions about how to run my life—what to do in my life? I seem to get lost every now and again.

Well, My very dear, multifaceted, multi-element kind of beings, I’m happy to have you as My children. Michael and I are blessed to see you whole, to see you in your completeness moment to moment, to see the enormity of your souls and the glory of your achievements as a very unique nodule of experience God created; blessed with self-awareness, and then doubly blessed, at times, with self-forgetfulness. I’ve always enjoyed that saying of a Japanese painter, who when asked how he achieved such great art, simply replied that he practiced painting his bamboo for many years until he finally became the bamboo, and let it paint itself. Or the archer who suggested you let the arrow release itself. Interesting, is it not--feeling for that demarcation between in-here and out-there, between you, your hand, and the brush or the arrow?

Will you, won’t you join the dance? (Yes!) Let’s go! And be in My Love. (All say, thank You.) Good evening.
