Dear Mother Spirit and Michael, Thank you for the recent installments in our Owner’s Manual For Human Beings, being human. We appreciate the Table of Contents in which you introduce and/or remind us of all the different aspects and dimensions we might enjoy. We are especially appreciative of the Shop Manual section, with its Helpful Hints for when we become all choked up and out of gumption due to incompletely combusted karma.

NEBADONIA: Good evening, my dear children, this is your spirit mother, Nebadonia. OK, let’s hit the starter button, fire up, and get on our way. Actually, as an aside, Michael and I are quite tickled with your humor. As your Urantia book informed you, this was one of the great gifts of Adam and Eve to the human races: a keener sense of humor, a wonderfully liberating sense of the self-deprecating kind where you lose your abject fear of being a bit foolish from time to time. All this is very healthy and you will certainly enjoy many different kinds of humor over on the other side--as you call it. All higher spiritual beings do have a great sense of humor. There is a need not to take ourselves too seriously. It’s all part of our deepest security in our Father’s arms.

(The state of question and wonder)

* '''''Wonder''''' (The state of question and wonder)

Like a few weeks ago, I would like to extend something Michael said before and look a little more closely at what we mean by living in a state of question and wonder. In line with your analogy, let’s look at the physical part of this first. Think of craftsmanship, your ability to work with tools and materials, whether you are a carpenter or a cook, a car mechanic or a jet jockey, a computer analyst--anything having to do with stuff, all this impersonal world you live in.

You are more like this kind of sun, my children. You too have your own spark of life passed on to you at conception, just naturally growing in your mother’s womb and afterwards: plus you have your own intake of nutrition. But spirit-wise you are like the suns that receive energy from without. You have the love of the whole spiritual community, Michael and myself and our other Celestial children, and then that single, greatest source of love energy--God, all feeding you from within that you may continue to shine on and on into eternity.

(Your spiritual presence in the present moment)

* '''''Presence''''' (Your spiritual presence in the present moment)

So with respect to time, feel yourselves glowing this way with an output of radiant energy holding the past and the future at a slight distance away from you. You’re certainly here. What you have experienced is part of your soul; and the future will still happen. It’s God’s will that it does. But in the meanwhile, right now, here you are glowing in the present with your own radiant presence.

If you have any questions or comments this evening, they can be a part of this glowing presence you are, that we share.

Student: I don’t have any questions, but I have a comment. Something shifted this weekend. I notice I’m more open and a little more expanded than I was before. It’s a nice feeling. I don’t know what I did or didn’t do, but it is different than it was last week. I’m enjoying my life with a lot more happiness, and still there’s a humanness that’s always there—for me anyway. It’s a little bit dark, but not as dark as it used to be. So thank you and Michael, and all your children who’ve supported me.

NEBADONIA: And he lived at a time when abject slavery was a totally unconsciously accepted norm. In parts of the Roman Empire slaves made up nearly half the population. And they accepted it unthinkingly as well. It’s what happened if you were captured by conquest, preferable to being put to the sword.

(Wonder—just for the fun of it)

The challenge I put before you, my children, is to feel yourselves as free-floating, radiant suns, just burning with your own energy and the intake of my Spirit Adjutants, and Michael’s Spirit of Truth, and peace, directly in the stream of love from our Father. All the past is right here, opening for you to appreciate. The future is constantly flowing toward you. See if you can feel this free space around you. Whatever your hand or your mind finds to do, you will find some freshness, some recognition this has not happened before. Wonder about some other way of doing it—just for the fun of it. I beam at you all of my love, both from without--here from Salvington, and right from within you. Let’s shine out together. Good evening.
