Daniel: "Good evening. I am Daniel. I am so very [[happy]] to be here with you today. I am pleased that so many are able to attend for as I was watching I heard say many time times, 'What a [[beautiful]] day!' and I concur that the [[weather]] you are having is very conducive to you. You [[enjoy]] it very much.

Daniel: "Good evening. I am Daniel. I am so very [[happy]] to be here with you today. I am pleased that so many are able to attend for as I was watching I heard say many time times, 'What a [[beautiful]] day!' and I concur that the [[weather]] you are having is very conducive to you. You [[enjoy]] it very much.

And know that as you continue to [[wish]], as you continue to be in a desirous [[mood]] to seek His will, your [[faith]] increases. And the [[gift]] that [[the Father]] has given to you [[grows]] many times, manyfold, and you then give back to [[the Father]] through this [[faith]]. The faith you have rests on the [[hope]] that there will always be a better tomorrow, and that in [[faith]] you will be ever able to move forward despite the [[appearances]], and [[adversities]] of life. In [[faith]] you are one with [[the Father]]. And it is through faith and the working of your [[Indwelling Spirit]] that you shed many of the [[material]] outside layers, that you grow in [[God-consciousness]]. You seek to follow one [[path]]. Faith is the gift of [[the Father]], which when you [[recognize]], when you continue to let it unfold and [[grow]] in your life, will bring through and carry you through your [[journey]] through [[eternity]]. If you refuse this [[faith]], if you shut it off, it will, like a [[fire]], lose all of its [[momentum]] and dwindle to where there are a few embers, and eventually coldness. So hang on to your [[faith]]. Feed this fire. For as you feed this fire you spread not only the [[light]] of [[the Father]], you provide [[warmth]]. You provide those things which bring [[comfort]] to others.

During [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Los_Angeles_riots_of_1992 this week] when there has been so much [[hatred]], so much [[violence]], so much uncertainty, so much [[confusion]]; during these times you need to fall back on your [[faith]], on your [[hope]], and know that behind all of these [[activities]] there is a loving [[Father]] calling to you to come forward, to help to [[heal]] these wounds of discontent. It is through your [[faith]], through your really coming to [[understanding]], through your firm [[commitment]] to follow [[the Father]]'s will that you grow to the [[point]] that in your [[material]] life you can make [[decisions]] that will help heal all wrongs. And again I say to you my [[friends]], my [[students]], it is exactly this kind of situation that you have [[experienced]] in your country this week that will continue, that will become more global. And this can only be rectified when you, the [[individual]], come to the [[realization]] of your personship with God [[the Father]]. If every [[ascending mortal]] on this planet [[understood]] the [[Indwelling Spirit]], could feel this [[love]], this [[beautiful]] gift from the Father within themselves, then there would be [[immediate]] [[Light and Life]] on [[Urantia]]. Realistically, this is a long way away. But there needs to be a starting point.

So I say to you, let your [[faith]] build. Let your faith be that which others see, which others [[desire]] to be a part of. Know that faith should be an [[individual]] matter. Faith should not be tied to a [[religious]] [[institution]]. When you speak to others and [[inquire]], 'What faith do you belong to?' know that this is erroneous, that the faith that you have is between you and [[the Father]]. It has nothing to do with [[institutions]]. It is your [[knowledge]] of your sonship or daughtership with the Father. It is your [[commitment]] to [[Doing the will of God|following His will]]. It is your [[understanding]] of a continuous life after this. This is [[faith]]. And when you the people of [[God]] come to the [[realization]] that true spiritual [[faith]] persists, prevails over all adversities, over all [[trials]], over injustices, all [[greed]], all hatred; when you come to the [[realization]] that faith prevails and you can through [[hope]] carry your faith to the outer realms, then [[change]] will come about, when others see you being [[strong]] in the face of [[adversities]] that come into your life; then your [[actions]] speak louder than [[words]].

P1: "Daniel, this is P1. [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=1992-04-26-Hope#Service.2C_Discernment Last week] we talked about sending [[love]] when we didn't want to pick up the hitchhiker, we could send [[love]]. So I tried to send [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Los_Angeles_riots_of_1992 L.A.] love and I don't know if it was very [[effective]] and then I tried to send an [[individual]] love that I read about in the paper. Is it worth sending love and if so how do you do it to be [[effective]]?"

Is it worth sending love and if so how do you do it to be [[effective]]?"

Daniel: "Good evening P1. And yes, never fail to send [[love]] to those around you, to those at a distance. For you see, [[love]] is the [[prayer]] that is heard throughout the [[universe]]. And to be effective it must come from your [[heart]]. It must come from a premise that you are truly wanting to help, to be a part of, to [[love]] an [[individual]], a situation. And as more people put out into (tape turned and a few words lost) they form a [[quieting]], [[healing]] [[effect]]. When one sends out hatred or one sends out the message, 'I will get [[revenge]]', this feeds into the [[collective consciousness]] and needs to be nullified by those who send out the [[positive]] message of [[love]], of [[joy]], of [[forgiveness]], of [[tolerance]]. And while you, the individual, cannot at this time rectify those [[problems]], you can seek to bring about [[change]] by feeding into this [[collective consciousness]] those positive [[attributes]] that will run, that if enough people seek to do this, will outweigh the [[negative]]. In the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Los_Angeles_riots_of_1992 situation in California]..you see I spoke last week that [[riots]] do not always bring about those things which are for the best...and while civil [[demonstrations]] can bring [[messages]] to your [[government]], those people in offices, can bring messages that can bring about [[change]]. The problem with civil [[demonstrations]] is they often get out of hand and the mentality, the [[chaos]] that transpires after that, is readily seen in devastating [[proportions]]. Any time you try to rectify [[evil]] with evil you run into more [[problems]]. [[The Master]] himself has always said to rectify a wrong is to give it [[good]], to never seek an eye for an eye, never seek revenge. Know that in giving [[love]] you help to curtail these [[problems]]. And I admire you for your thoughtfulness, for you care and concern for the troubles of this [[planet]]. And I [[admonish]] all of you to be that pillar that shines forth, that gives [[love]] to situations. So you see, the [[problems]] that have ensued this week are so numerous that they do not stem from one incident, but rather from many. And finding the answers, the solutions, can only come from your and others [[ability]] to be of such [[understanding]] of [[the Father]], that you will then be able to know what to do to bring about [[change]]. The [[hatred]], the sad part about this week, is that those who were already of [[negative]] [[feeling]], who already held [[prejudice]] and hate for any particular [[culture]], [[race]], only had their [[feelings]] intensified this week. They were, in [[effect]], given more fuel for their [[fire]], more cause and reason to [[hate]]. So you see, this ugly vicious circle can continue, unless those who are willing to look past what has happened, to look to the [[future]], to look to God's love and the overall [[picture]], that there will be a better tomorrow, to look past the [[personal]] [[grief]], the injustices, the [[hate]], and take that step, that step of [[faith]] in [[the Father]], that all things in the Father can be made possible. Is this helpful?"

P1: "Yes, very. Back to [[faith]] again. And it seems like we really have a [[potential]] [[power]] here."
