===Quote===
“All things are [[sacred]] in the lives of those who are [[spirit]] led; that is, subordinated to the [[truth]], ennobled by [[love]], dominated by [[mercy]], and restrained by [[fairness]] — [[justice]]. The spirit which my Father and I shall send into the world is not only the [[Spirit of Truth]] but also the spirit of [[idealistic]] [[beauty]].” [[155:6|UB Paper 155, Section 6]]
===Lesson===
Thought Adjuster: “The above quote got your [[attention]], as it [[beautifully]] expands on the nature of the ‘[[Spirit of Truth]]’, depicting it as ‘the spirit of idealistic beauty.’ Indeed, [[Truth]] is not absolute whenever it is stripped of [[love]] and [[beauty]]. It loses its luster and [[universal]] [[appeal]].
“The pursuit of high [[ideals]] is the bread and butter of [[soul growth]]. Ponder this for a [[moment]]. How you spend the precious [[time]] allotted to you for the initial phase of your [[eternal]] [[destiny]] is very consequential, as it determines whether your [[character]] will come to yield some of the juicy [[fruits of Spirit]].
“The [[standard]] by which you should assess the eternal [[value]] of your [[decisions]] is: Is it true? Is it [[beautiful]]? Is it loving? [[Truth]] devoid of love is [[ugly]] and [[cruel]]; Beauty devoid of [[goodness]] and authenticity is shallow and only skin-deep. You get the picture. As for [[everything]] else in your life, it is a [[balancing]] act that requires you to be [[flexible]] and resourceful and continuously work at developing these mutually enhancing [[facets]] of your spiritual life.
===Closing===
“[[Truth, Beauty, and Goodness]] are a package deal. They are the [[ultimate]] blend of spiritual seasonings that make your life [[experience]] tasty and [[attractive]] to others. They are indeed [[magnetic]] forces of attraction. This is the reason why your Heavenly Father exerts such an irresistible pull from His Residence in [[Paradise]] and wholeheartedly invites you to grow to fully embody these three core [[values]]. Can you [[fathom]] what a bright [[future]] He has in store for you?”
