Sharmon: “Do [[human being]]s on [[Urantia]] really know what is meant by ‘Unconditional Love?’ Many people use this [[expression]] as [[romantic]] jargon and to cause an impression, but do they really know what it means? Unconditional Love catches the [[essence]] of true love. Love is not pure if it is not unconditional. Therefore, only [[God]] can give love in its most pure expression, because God loves with no [[respect]] for persons. In [[fact]], it is impossible for human beings to show unconditional love by themselves, for such love needs to be a [[Fruits of the Spirit|fruit of the Holy Spirit]] in you, enabling you to love over and beyond.
'''Loving Over and Beyond Any Qualification'''. If you love unconditionally, no qualification — [[good]] or bad — in the person you love may alter your love. You will love if either the person is deserving or not, pleasant or [[irritating]], good or bad — no qualification matters because your love is unconditional. A specific need about a person may determine the way love is expressed, but never the [[quality]] of unconditional love. The reason for loving somebody primarily resides on your will, a [[decision]] by you, and you decide if this love is going to be over and beyond any qualification, or not.
'''Loving Over and Beyond Any Rejection'''. When somebody rejects you is when it hurts you most. When you are hurt may come the [[temptation]] to stop loving and give back [[evil]] for evil. But if you let anything in you — even the [[pain]] of rejection — prevent or diminish your [[love]], then, a condition is created, and your love is no longer unconditional. You cannot [[pretend]] not being hurt by the rejection — it’s useless. The only way to love over and beyond a hurtful rejection is giving unconditional, complete and replete [[forgiveness]]. Then rejection will not stop your love.
'''Loving Over and Beyond Any Perception'''. Unconditional love is regardless of what other people’s [[perception]] may say about it. People may not approve or [[praise]] your love; however, for your love it is immaterial; it doesn’t depend on praise or reproach, it doesn't depend on anything, for it is an unconditional love. You may feel [[happy]] or sad with others’ [[opinions]], but nothing of that will [[change]] your love’s [[essence]] because your love is over and beyond other people’s perception. Unconditional love charges nothing and accepts no payment for it. It is priceless and ultimately ‘unpayable.’ It’s a love unimpressed by others’ [[evaluations]].
===Closing===
“So, my dear [[friend]], unconditional love is a very special business. Not everybody is capable of nurturing it, or even capable of showing it. There is no condition for this kind of love. It is so [[spiritual]] that it is almost unexplainable. It comes from [[God]] and needs the help of the Spirit of God to be [[manifested]]. But do not be discouraged. Perfect love requires [[perfection]], and that, my friend, is a [[progressive]] experiential [[journey]]. We will get it one day on [[Paradise]], but the journey starts here, on Urantia. I am Sharmon, the most charming of the [[Midwayers|Midway Realm]]. Love!”
