The Scribe: “My views are well known about the approaching signs of all-out [[warfare]], for they are on a par with the [[feelings]] of [[the Father|the Creator-Father]] from whose bosom I hail. At this time we are contemplating some [[universal]] laws and rules of [[celestial]] [[behavior]] that do not quite measure up to the regulations as portrayed in the [[Urantia Papers]]. It must be understood that during the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1980s mid-1980s] a dispensation did come about. However, certain seeming [[exceptions]] to universal laws have a long, long history of occurring and recurring.

“Apart from your having more [[freedom]] in your [[communication]] between planets since this new minor dispensation, there were always the [[events]] you may call potential disturbances to the “[[Flow]] of Life” — those events foreseen to have a likely long-term [[negative]] effect upon human [[progress]] on the [[evolutionary worlds]]. Direct [[action]] may be taken and human actors may be directed to alter an otherwise unprofitable outcome. Always bear in mind that the Creator-Father runs [[all worlds]].

“Since the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1980s 1980s] there has certainly been a great deal more [[freedom]]— especially in [[communication]]. And yet the [[majority]] of these [[events]] have been standard exceptions to primary rules of which you had no awareness. The [[unusual]] [[experience]] that was brought to your [[attention]] may well have its basis in the (Progress list) subscriber’s personal needs — important [[advice]] for her [[future]] or safety. The [[information]] could have been a reward of a kind, something she deserved. Perhaps someone near her needed it. It happens.

“Perhaps the ‘[[Flow]] of [[Life]]’ and a great number of outcomes needed to be ‘made safe’ — for future events to [[unfold]] as needed. Possibly your subscriber is rather fearless, has an [[open mind]] and likely will become a great helper to her Guardians. And, my friend, perhaps there was a combination of these needs and/or opportunities that were to be [[achieved]]. There is little in this world that can be said to be a [[random]] occurrence, for all is [[foreknown]] and anything at all can be tweaked to suit the “Flow of Life.”
