===Lesson===
The Beloved One: “[[Express]] your [[gratefulness]] in [[song]] to the Universal [[Creator]] in the Stillness of your [[heart]], where I am the [[silent]] Witness to your gratitude. The [[secret]] longings of the human heart and those [[feelings]] of thankfulness, rise as [[incense]] before the throne of God.

“It warms God’s Father Heart that there are those on little [[Urantia]] (the name of this planet), who give voice to their innermost [[feelings]] of gratitude. In this [[manner]], also, they allow their [[souls]] to [[grow]] and be nurtured in return, as everything is always reciprocal.

“The higher you climb on the ‘[[ascension]] ladder’ to [[perfection]], the more your [[joy]] shall increase, although this is practically unthinkable on a planet such as this, where so many souls yet flounder in the [[darkness]] of [[fear]], [[superstition]] and [[greed]].

“Humankind is tardy and takes its time to wake up to the [[realization]] that [[physical]] life is only the first [[step]] on the long road to perfection in the [[evolutionary]] growth of the [[spirit]]-[[soul]], as humankind is still bent on immediate [[gratification]] of the [[senses]] and fulfillment of their [[carnal]] [[desires]].

“It is by courageous and rugged living through the [[vicissitudes]] of life; and through self-[[discipline]] towards [[self-mastery]], that the victories of the soul are won. This occurs when the [[higher self]] wins out over the baser [[creature]] self, and the latter learns to live by the [[golden rule]] of doing unto others in the way he or she would like to be treated.
===Closing===
“[[Jesus]], as a [[Creator Son]] of God in human form, mastered His lower self in all areas, so His Higher God-Self was able to triumph whilst He was living the [[Part 4|mortal life in the flesh]], all the while being obedient to [[Doing the will of God|the will of His Father in heaven]].

“Jesus’ life was a life of [[service]], and by living His life in service, countless [[souls]] were assisted and went forth more [[courageously]] with a grateful and joyful heart, living and believing in the [[promise]] of life everlasting and [[unfolding]] to the Glory of God.”
