(The spiritual glow of humanity)

   

   

Mother Spirit and I have shared with you our experience of the human race on Urantia, and how the spiritual glow coming from all the people on this planet so enormously outshines all the pain and suffering, the fear and the anxiety, even the spiritual loneliness of some.  To some degree the pain and suffering of life is unavoidable simply in being a physical being subject to the inevitable decrepitude and suffering, of even a long life, ending in inevitable death.  Yet accompanying that long life is an ever growing soul, and so this transcendent reality--this cosmic reality co-authored by a presence of God--this moment by moment fulfilled purpose of life--this very reality, my children, that you can experience, this too is a that everlasting light that your Christmas carol speaks of.  This is another light that illuminates the hopes and the fears of all the years, for that bright soulful illumination--the very existence of that illumination--outshines all the darkness of the human condition.

[[Mother Spirit]] and I have shared with you our experience of the [[human]] race on [[Urantia]], and how the spiritual [[glow]] coming from all the people on this [[planet]] so enormously outshines all the [[pain]] and suffering, the [[fear]] and the [[anxiety]], even the spiritual [[Isolation|loneliness]] of some.  To some degree the pain and suffering of life is [[Necessity|unavoidable]] simply in being a [[physical]] being subject to the inevitable decrepitude and suffering, of even a long life, ending in inevitable [[death]].  Yet accompanying that long life is an ever [[growing]] [[soul]], and so this [[transcendent]] [[reality]]--this [[cosmic]] reality co-[[authored]] by a [[presence]] of [[God]]--this [[moment]] by moment fulfilled [[purpose]] of life--this very [[reality]], my children, that you can [[experience]], this too is a that everlasting [[light]] that your [[Christmas]] carol speaks of.  This is another light that [[illuminates]] the hopes and the fears of all the years, for that bright soulful illumination--the very [[existence]] of that illumination--outshines all the [[darkness]] of the [[human condition]].

   

   

Indeed the mature human soul, having known so much life, realizes how much a part these marvelous bodies you have can give you of a feeling for time and eternity that is unique to the human races.  And so this so-called animal/primitive human heritage that you must deal with in turn gives so much meaning to human life.  To see things from a genuine spiritual perspective does not entail denying anything whatsoever.  You have only to bite your lip or pinch your finger a tiny bit to know the reality of pain--for those of you who are not literally living in it.  Yet you can see how this is not a curse.  This is the most marvelous gift, this physical-ness you know.  For you will come to know in time and eternity a scope of experience that no other order of being has as a personal possession.  This was why, my children, one of the greatest gifts that my Father could give me was the ability to have a physical human life myself.  It was, and remains, one of my most prized soul possessions.

I’ve talked a little bit about what those few forty years or so has meant to a being such as myself with hundreds of billions of years of life and endless trillions upon trillions of human children already in my past, still to experience being human as you can.  There is no replacement, there is no universe substitute for this moment by moment living your human lives.  That, my dear ones, is a radiance that will only grow in appreciation as you move beyond this first life of yours.  It is what we mean when we say you are earning this appreciation of reality like no other being can, and this is an eternal possession of yours.
