===Quote===
“Religion [[inspires]] man to live courageously and joyfully on the face of earth; it joins [[patience]] with passion, [[insight]] to zeal, sympathy with power, and [[ideals]] with energy.” ([[99:7|99:7.3]])
===Lesson===
Teacher Uteah: “The above quote would make a great pitch for the many perks of [[true religion]]? Religion is inspirational; it fosters [[courage]] and breeds [[joy]]. It is all these, patient and passionate, insightful and zealous; sympathetic and powerful; idealistic and a driving force.

“Some of you may be [[skeptical]], as it is a far cry from the nature of your religious [[experience]]. Rather than questioning the [[accuracy]] of this statement, question the relevance of your [[belief]] system if it resorts to the unpleasant motivators of [[fear]], [[guilt]], and [[shame]]. If it does not yield into your life the juicy [[fruits of Spirit]], isn’t it time to look for a better version?

“[[Jesus]] must have found the golden egg of spiritual living, as He came to be known as a cheerful man who bravely plowed ahead to [[disseminate]] His groundbreaking teachings about the Fatherhood of God and the Brotherhood of Man. He never rushed, as He well knew that present mindfulness is [[necessary]] to not overlook any [[opportunity]]. He campaigned passionately for the enduring [[values]] of [[Truth, Beauty, and Goodness]]; yet, He was wisely and patiently waiting for His hour to come. He generously [[shared]] His enlightenment with all. He spoke with [[authority]] in [[the Father]]’s Name but was compassionate toward His brothers in the flesh. He was proactively pursuing His God-given [[mandate]] to establish the [[Kingdom of Heaven]] on Earth. He was a [[passionate]] [[idealist]].

“Being idealistic does not necessarily imply that you are out-of-touch with [[reality]]. Realistic idealists use their energetic quota to mold their reality by taking appropriate [[actions]]. Each affirmative action has a positive [[impact]]. Period. It is so because of the inalterable universal Law of [[Cause and Effect]].

“By embracing the [[religion of Jesus]], you will thrive spiritually, no longer acting out of a mere sense of [[duty]]. You will joyfully act out of [[Love]] — putting your Love for [[God]] in action for the sake of your planetary siblings. This driving force is clean, renewable, and feel-good energy.”
