===Lesson 2===
 
[[Loyalty]] is a [[sacred]], [[blessed]] [[virtue]]. Our [[personal]] loyalties are the highest [[expression]] of [[self]]-[[worth]]. In [[personal]] [[relationships]] our loyalties are [[paramount]] and precious gifts. The innermost [[soul]] is exhibiting its highest and most [[profound]] [[beliefs]]. Our first and foremost [[loyalty]] - [[duty]], is to our [[Heavenly Father]], who demands in [[love]], our first [[allegiance]]. [[God]] gives of himself in all [[creation]]. He has sent [[Thought Adjuster|His perfect Spirit]] to [[110:1 Indwelling the Mortal Mind|indwell the mortal mind]]. How [[loyal]] is this? How [[profoundly]] loyal to His [[creatures]] is He? How can we [[exhibit]] a lesser [[loyalty]] than full, personal, [[worshipful]], complete, wholehearted and [[consecrated]] loyalty? [[Our Father]]/God, is [[love]]. He is also the most [[consecrated]], [[divine]] and complete [[Parent]].
 
 
 
Who has a [[child]] that they are not completely [[loyal]] to? This [[word]] is inadequate for my complete [[expression]], but in [[necessity]] we use it. In [[human]] life [[loyalty]] can [[express]] a lower form of [[consecrated]] [[duty]] in you. This [[loyalty]] which I mean to express is [[supreme]]. For each person this loyalty - to follow ones own [[Thought Adjuster|inner spirit]], must be [[supreme]] over all else.
 
 
 
[[Blessed]] is he who walks in his own [[light]]. Yes, for the light which I ma y help you [[discover]] within is already there. I am but a helper - [[teacher]], to help you to [[discover]] your own inner [[loyalties]],' your own inner [[truths]],' however this may be [[expressed]]. This [[concept]]/[[reality]] has an ever increasing truth within each of you.
 
 
 
As a child, [[loyalties]] are learned in [[childhood]] [[relationships]] which have relatively [[simple]] [[meanings]]. As we [[grow]] through our [[mortal]] [[experience]], loyalty becomes related to our [[understanding]] of the fundamental concept, which involves the [[Fatherhood]] of the [[Universal Father]] and our [[relationship]] to one another as spiritual [[brothers and sisters]].
 
 
 
Consider the [[idea]]/[[command]] of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Son_of_man Son of Man], in which He asks that you [[love]] your [[enemy]].' [[Recognize]] even in this [[adverse]] mortal [[experience]] that the enemy is still your [[brother]]. This requires a new level of [[understanding]] [[loyalty]].

Opening

The light of God surrounds us; the love of God enfolds us; the power of God protects us; the presence of God watches over us. Wherever we are, he is.

Lesson

The understanding of the three concentric circles is of course multi-leveled, and deals with: 1) The symbolization of concepts of the Infinity, or limitlessness of the presence of God the Father. 2) Eternity, a word form which express timelessness - the self-existent Father with the proposition of never beginning, never ending, that each of these circles represent this concept. 3) The third and final expression, is, the ever presentness of God the Father.

Taken together, one recognizes that throughout the vast universes there is no dimension of time or space that you may be in, that with the visualization of these concentric circles will not remind and assure you of His presence. Thus, the last phrase of the prayer, wherever we are, He is', applies in the most broadest sense to this world experience, as well as your entire ascendant career.

This should be a great comfort for you and those with whom you associate, those who are within your everyday immediate presence or throughout the Brotherhood of the planet Urantia. Your departed brothers and sisters who have traversed this plane are likewise always in the presence of God.
