Teacher Uteah: “It is always [[darkest]] just before the [[dawn]] — before the [[light]] of a new day breaks above the [[horizon]]. This is true for those times in your life when it seems that all [[hope]] is lost and you are stuck in a situation that would [[appear]] to be beyond repair or approach. In times like this, it is best to put your [[faith]] in Father’s [[Grace]] and trust that something far better is in the works that shall exceed your greatest [[expectations]]. Letting go of your expectations allows [[the universe]] to go to work and bring the highest good to your life. You may not [[understand]] the outcomes of the current situation, but in the bigger picture — in the equation of universe [[destiny]], those things that you relinquish to [[the Father’s Will]] begin forming the [[future]] — a future that not only includes you, but all others. Father’s Will always moves the future toward light — even in the hours before dawn — the darkest time.

“[[Faith]] and [[Trust]] are the two main ingredients that help you to relinquish your will to [[control]] a situation that includes the will of other people in your life. You cannot control what others will do — only can you control what you do — your own [[energy]] and how you use it. When you find that you have created a situation that you are unsure how to [[navigate]] and you cannot see a clear solution, relinquishing your control and giving it to [[the Father]] in Faith and Trust is always the wisest thing to do. At this point, it is a time to sort out your [[thoughts]], take a deep [[breath]] and look at things from a higher vantage point.

“[[Allow]] yourself to be [[guided]] in Light. Let go of what you thought would [[work]] — clearly it did not and, holding on to this approach does not let [[the universe]] work for you — it waits until you have had enough failed [[expectations]] to relinquish the control you thought you had. Learning to relinquish control will allow more light into your life. You will begin to recognize that when you let go, things move — things happen — things [[unfold]] in ways you could not see or [[imagine]]. You are handing the situation over to a Higher Power — Father’s [[Grace]].

“One thing you must [[understand]] about letting go and letting Father’s Grace [[guide]] you is that you are to work together with this guidance and use your energy — your [[thoughts]], your [[words]], your [[actions]], and hold them up to the light. If the light shines on something dark in your [[past]], you are to look at it, acknowledge it, and ask for [[mercy]] — to be shown a better way forward — to be included in a future that is moving toward light — that you are working with the light and not against it. When you [[sincerely]] [[express]] thoughts that show you are willing to be a participant in your own [[progress]] and in the healing of your world, then and there does the universe [[step]] in and steer the ship.

“[[Learning]] to relinquish control is a [[process]] that all humans are subject to in this very [[intense]] and short stay on [[Urantia]] — it is meant to quickly [[orient]] you to rely on [[your Father]]’s [[Grace]] so that in the worlds of light, hereafter, you may continue to grow and contribute to the [[Great Plan]]. It is a [[character]] builder that shows that you are [[responsible]] for the energy given to you in your precious life — that you are willing to be guided and to [[participate]] in your own growth. It is an [[admonition]] that you are a young [[soul]] and that you are not always right — that you [[welcome]] the wise guidance of Father’s Grace to show you what it means to be a child of the [[Creator]].
===Closing===
“Even in your darkest hour, Father’s Grace is working out the details for the greatest way forward. You are still captain of your life, and Father will use whatever you allow (relinquish) to move you toward light and [[eternal]] life. The more guidance you [[accept]], the more light will come into your life — and that, my dear [[students]], is a [[universal]] constant.

“In service always,

“I AM Uteah.”
