108:5.1 The [[Adjusters]] accept a [[difficult]] assignment when they [[volunteer]] to indwell such [[composite]] [[beings]] as live on [[Urantia]].

108:5.2 What the [[Thought Adjuster]] cannot utilize in your present life, those [[truths]] which he cannot successfully [[transmit]] to the man of his [[betrothal]], he will faithfully preserve for use in the next [[stage]] of [[existence]], just as he now carries over from [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_110#110:6._THE_SEVEN_PSYCHIC_CIRCLES circle to circle] those items which he fails to register in the [[experience]] of the human subject, owing to the [[creature]]'s inability, or failure, to give a sufficient [[degree]] of [[co-operation]].

108:5.3 One thing you can depend upon: The [[Adjusters]] will never lose anything committed to their [[care]]; never have we known these spirit helpers to [[default]]. [[Angels]] and other [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_37 high types of spirit beings], not excepting the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_35 local universe type of Sons], may occasionally [[embrace]] [[evil]], may sometimes depart from the [[divine]] way, but [[Adjusters]] never falter. They are absolutely dependable, and this is equally true of all [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_107#107:2._CLASSIFICATION_OF_ADJUSTERS seven groups].

108:5.4 Your [[Adjuster]] is the [[potential]] of your new and next order of [[existence]], the advance [[bestowal]] of your eternal sonship with [[God]]. By and with the [[consent]] of your [[Free will|will]], the [[Adjuster]] has the [[power]] to subject the [[creature]] trends of the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_111#111:1._THE_MIND_ARENA_OF_CHOICE material mind] to the [[transforming]] [[actions]] of the [[motivations]] and [[purposes]] of the emerging [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_111#111:2._NATURE_OF_THE_SOUL morontial soul].

108:5.5 The [[Mystery Monitors]] are not [[thought]] helpers; they are [[thought]] [[adjusters]]. They [[labor]] with the [[material]] [[mind]] for the [[purpose]] of constructing, by [[adjustment]] and [[spiritualization]], a new [[mind]] for the new worlds and the new name of your [[future]] career. Their mission chiefly concerns the [[future]] life, not this life. They are called heavenly helpers, not earthly helpers. They are not interested in making the [[mortal]] [[career]] easy; rather are they concerned in making your life reasonably [[difficult]] and rugged, so that [[decisions]] will be [[stimulated]] and multiplied. The [[presence]] of a great [[Thought Adjuster]] does not [[bestow]] ease of living and [[freedom]] from strenuous [[thinking]], but such a [[divine]] gift should confer a sublime [[peace]] of mind and a superb tranquillity of [[spirit]].

108:5.6 Your [[transient]] and ever-changing [[emotions]] of [[joy]] and [[sorrow]] are in the main [[purely]] human and [[material]] [[reactions]] to your [[Inner Life|internal psychic climate]] and to your external [[material]] [[environment]]. Do not, therefore, look to the [[Adjuster]] for selfish consolation and mortal [[comfort]]. It is the [[business]] of the [[Adjuster]] to [[prepare]] you for the [[eternal]] [[adventure]], to [[assure]] your [[survival]]. It is not the mission of the [[Mystery Monitor]] to smooth your ruffled [[feelings]] or to minister to your injured [[pride]]; it is the [[preparation]] of your [[soul]] for the long [[ascending career]] that [[engages]] the [[attention]] and occupies the time of the [[Adjuster]].

108:5.7 I [[doubt]] that I am able to [[explain]] to you just what the [[Adjusters]] do in your minds and for your [[souls]]. I do not know that I am fully cognizant of what is really going on in the [[cosmic]] [[association]] of a divine Monitor and a [[human]] [[mind]]. It is all somewhat of a [[mystery]] to us, not as to the [[plan]] and [[purpose]] but as to the actual [[mode]] of accomplishment. And this is just why we are confronted with such [[difficulty]] in finding an appropriate name for these [[supernal]] gifts to [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_40#40:5._MORTALS_OF_TIME_AND_SPACE mortal men].

108:5.8 The [[Thought Adjusters]] would like to [[change]] your [[feelings]] of [[fear]] to convictions of [[love]] and [[confidence]]; but they cannot [[mechanically]] and [[arbitrarily]] do such [[things]]; that is your task. In [[executing]] those [[decisions]] which deliver you from the fetters of [[fear]], you [[literally]] supply the [[psychic]] [[fulcrum]] on which the [[Adjuster]] may subsequently apply a [[spiritual]] [[lever]] of uplifting and advancing [[illumination]].

108:5.9 When it comes to the sharp and well-defined [[conflicts]] between the higher and lower tendencies of the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_64 races], between what really is right or wrong (not merely what you may call right and wrong), you can depend upon it that the [[Adjuster]] will always [[participate]] in some definite and [[active]] [[manner]] in such [[experiences]]. The [[fact]] that such [[Adjuster]] [[activity]] may be [[unconscious]] to the human [[partner]] does not in the least detract from its [[value]] and [[reality]].

108:5.10 If you have a [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Guardian_angel#113:2._THE_DESTINY_GUARDIANS personal guardian of destiny] and should fail of [[survival]], that [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Guardian_angel#113:1._THE_GUARDIAN_ANGELS guardian angel] must be [[adjudicated]] in order to [[receive]] [[vindication]] as to the [[faithful]] [[execution]] of her [[trust]]. But [[Thought Adjusters]] are not thus subjected to [[examination]] when their subjects fail to [[survive]]. We all know that, while an [[angel]] might possibly fall short of the [[perfection]] of [[ministry]], [[Thought Adjusters]] work in the [[manner]] of [[Paradise]] [[perfection]]; their ministry is characterized by a flawless [[technique]] which is beyond the [[possibility]] of [[criticism]] by any being outside of [[Divinington]]. You have perfect [[guides]]; therefore is the goal of [[perfection]] certainly [[attainable]].
