Session

Opening

PRAYER: Mother and Father, we come to you to receive your words and to feel your presence enfold us. Thank you for this time together. Thank you for preparing our minds and bodies with what we need to stabilize us in Spirit during these times of planetary change. May your WILL be done. Thank you.

Lesson

MICHAEL: Greetings, my beloved children. This is Michael. Today before we go into the question and answer period, I open my arms to receive you, and to imprint upon your hearts that which I desire to give my children, each one of you individually and uniquely. As you receive me, take a moment to visualize in your mind’s eye your heart is beating safely in the heart of your Mother. Allow Her to gently expand your circuitry that your body may capture more of my essence to help you grow. Take a few moments to set up this visualizing circuit, and we will move in you now, my beloved children. (Pause)

Such wonderful circuitry now houses and bathes Urantia! This quality of LIGHT that comes from our Father in Paradise is truly the balm for this planet to soothe the aching hearts, to restore the dignity to life itself. Continue to visualize yourself in the very center of your Mother, calibrating Her heartbeat with yours, expanding you gently in the flow of WILL. (Pause)

Drink deeply of our presences. Drink deeply, allowing the saturation to converge within your cellular structures. (Pause)

And now, conjoin with me, elevating your awareness to worship our Father in Paradise for a few moments. Send forth your appreciation and praise to our Father. Circuits of your mind can expand further expand into the currents of worship. Open your hearts in praise and appreciation. Take your time, simply loving our Father to the best of your human abilities. (Pause)

Father of GLORY and LIGHTS, I come before you with my little children of Urantia. We simply pour out our hearts’ appreciation to you for your LOVE and creative plan. Receive us, O Father. Help these little ones to be more effective conveyers of your LOVE and WILL to this world’s inhabitants. (Pause)

And now, dear ones, let us descend back to Urantia. Allow me to further guide you through this very important experience of being human. Take your time that you may now reorient yourselves in the daily concerns that you have or any comments you may wish to share with me. I am ready to receive you when you are ready to speak.

Dialogue

Student: Hello this is H., I just like to share that I am very happy to have these new experiences with the geomancy seminar we had yesterday and the ideas of different dimensions we have yet to explore. So I am really curious and wondering what´s going to happen, thank you.

Michael: And thank you for your continued devotion to healing our beautiful world, my son, but do you expect me to tell you what will occur in the future? For I would not wish to spoil any surprise and diminish your creative imagination from fully expressing itself. You must be patient and you must await upon divine will and the divine hand at work in healing Urantia. Be at peace knowing that my love embraces this world—my compassion, my understanding—these are attributes of Spirit that you can hardly conceive, but will one day embody as you grow God-ward.

So enjoy each day, savor each moment of being human, allow yourself to become more fully invested in the WILL of the Spirit, for it is this WILL, this forward momentum of the creative plan that you are now participating in. And I invite you to become more fully invested in this WILL energy, that you may expand into the fullness of your heart-energies and be a leader among many to show them the way to the Father. Do you understand, my son?

Student: Yes, thank you and I got the idea from some lessons from the last few years that you don`t want to take away from us the (I don`t find the word), but to experience and explore all these things that are hidden from our consciousness now, thank you.

Michael: This is part of the adventure that the Father has designed that He may participate with you in the experience of life. Trust in His presence within you more, my son, as this will deliver into your mind a different relationship to the notion of uncertainty. Uncertainty is a natural component to the ascension plan. Why would you understand it all at once? First of all, your human mind would be total incapable of it, and second and most important, Father wants you to come to love His creative plan as much as He does through experience. So let yourself savor the joys of uncertainty and know that each day you will find something new to appreciate and delight upon. Enjoy my peace, my son. (Thank you.)

Student: Father Michael, this is B. I thank you for being with us today. And I certainly thank you for those moments of offering glory and praise to our Paradise Father. A few weeks ago in one of these phone calls, you spoke of 5 things that help us take care of our physical bodies: Exercise, Nutrition, Hydration, Rest, and Stillness. These are 5 things that can help us to become and remain healthy and whole. My question today revolves around Nutrition. For years I have studied various aspects of nutrition. I have found that there are various ways of eating that seem to be speaking truth to me, and yet, when you compare one to the other, there are some contradictions. The Eat Right for Your Blood Type Diet speaks truth in some ways. The Wise Traditions speaks truth in other ways. And yet, there are aspects of vegan and vegetarianism that speak truth. I am wondering if you could help clarify how best to interpret nutrition for our human bodies. How best to determine what is best for each of us? Thank you.

Michael: This is an important question you have raised today, my daughter. As you are well aware, the truth contained in any idea is relative to that individual’s understanding and experience. And so, in looking at this subject of nutrition, researching it with your human mind to ascertain what others who have an interest and expertise in the field have studied and experienced, you must now refine your own understanding, and to take these ideas to your indwelling Father fragment and ask what is a more, you might say, customized program for you to follow.

Eating habits are similar to thought habits. They have created certain ways of operating within your system and these patterns have certain influences within your being. Any type of habit, whether it is a physical habit such as your eating pattern or a thought pattern that you hold for a long period of time, operates in the same manner. Your body has become accustomed to certain foods, and so you must ascertain through the combined efforts of your own discernment and the leadings of your Adjuster, which are the best foods to consume, and how to best properly consume them. You might say that you are now devising a divine eating plan for yourself. This is something that may take time for you to fully understand. I would encourage you to spend a portion of your stillness time going through a list of the foods you eat. Ask your Adjuster if this is appropriate for your body. If it is not, simply remove it from your list and your diet. If it is, then ask when should you eat this; how you should eat this; with what other foods you should eat this. So this will take a bit of time and discernment on your part to develop this eating program that will help your body maintain and heal itself.

In so far as your physical body has established certain habits, your body has become accustomed to eating certain things. Your body will go through a period of craving when you eliminate certain foods, because it is used to getting that, even though it has perhaps been unhealthy for your physical body. So you must safeguard yourself against this, and again, ask your Adjuster what are the foods or supplements that you may need to counteract this craving as you wean yourself away from those things that unhealthy. Does this help my daughter?

Student: Yes, this helps a lot. I have already started a little bit of doing that – touching base with my Adjuster on some things, but I had not thought of actually taking time in stillness and going through the list of foods that I normally incorporate into my diet. This is wonderful. This is really great! I also have been paying more attention to how my body feels or reacts when I eat something, even though what I eat is “entirely healthy” or considered healthy. I have come to the realization that what may be healthy for someone else may not be the best thing for my constitution. So, this is very very helpful, Michael. It is something that has been weighing on my mind these past weeks. Thank you so much.

Michael: And I thank you for bringing this question to the table, if you will pardon the pun (quiet laughter). The idea here is that you are learning to wean yourself from the incorporation of other’s ideas into the customization of what is right for you and you alone. And herein is where your Adjuster can more fully guide you. Even though your Adjuster is of pure Spirit, she has a vested interest in your physical well being because her love for you is such that she wants to commune and communicate with you, and to ensure that your body is in top working condition is of vital interest so that she can convey what is important for you to understand and, of course, what your heart also yearns to experience. So practice this, and I would be interested to hear your results in our call next month. Be in my peace, my daughter.

Student: Thank you, Michael. Thank you.

Michael: As I ask all of you to do, and know that the Father’s hand is moving you along.

Student: Father Michael, thank you for this forum here today and I also want to thank you for the team you sent me that Donna mentioned, Steven and Galvantra, and trying to incorporate their presence into my daily life and to try to hear them and know them and understand Galvantra’s title as relationship coach and what I’m going through right now in trying to expand and progress in a long distance relationship that has different cultural implications, language differences, and so forth. I thank you for all that and also want to see what wisdom and counsel you have at this point in where I am at with this path that I have chosen in this regard.

Michael: D, my son, I encourage you to trust more fully in where you are being guided. The attribute of faith that is the cornerstone of the relationship that you share with the Father engenders within your heart a very secure tether of trust. This energy is, again, another one of those forward-moving actions that leads you to become more Godlike. While your mind, your intellect, searches for guidance, it is truly your body, your feeling that will help you stay this course as you trust more fully through the embodiment of faith.

As you open yourself to trusting in where you are being guided a stronger sense of assurance can be discerned within your understanding. You will not know the outcome. You will not understand or know how it will unfold. Again, in referring you to my discourse with your brother H, look at this component of uncertainty. Learn to enjoy what it wishes to teach you. For in this uncertainty that the dynamics of faith and trust are most active if you have the courage to allow yourself to fully let go to these dynamics. Too often the human wishes to understand through the intellect what it means to be guided and to follow the inner leading, but I say to you, understanding comes through the living of each moment, faithfully, trustingly, courageously, and with that internal conviction God is good and wants you to perceive His goodness wherever you are being guided.

Much of what you are going through you might consider to be a test of faith. Not that you will have a grade on how you do, but whether or not you have it within you to go beyond the comfort zone of your own understanding to expand yourself within a new arena of dynamic living. This uncertainty has a very dynamic component to what you experience. As these words settle in, as you begin to incorporate this idea of uncertainty into your own conceptual frame of understanding and reference, you will be given more faith and trust to escort you along this path. These components, operating synergistically together, will augment your spiritual development mightily. Do you understand, my son? (Yes, thank you, Michael.)

Closing

My beloved children, there are so many lessons to be learned through this Urantia life experience. Each of you has overcome many obstacles and hurdles in your own cultural influences—the imprinting of erroneous beliefs and concepts. So much that is new is ready to be birthed in your awareness. Savor this time, uncertain as it may be; who is behind it all—it is the Father! As I learned to trust the Father in my human life, so I ask you. You all have it within you; you just need to feel that burning passionate desire to be and do the Fathers’ will and all things will unfold in His TIME and His GRACE and in His GLORY. And with that, my children, I will leave you. Know that I am ever guiding you forward as I walk with you. Enjoy your day, and grow in grace and beauty. Good day.
