Do not be [[anxious]] either for yourself or for another. We are all safely within [[the Father]]'s care. Before closing, let me say again to [[study]]. [[Pray]]. Enter into the [[quiet]] [[communion]] of [[worship]]. And [[practice]] the [[awareness]] of our loving Parent's [[presence]] in all you do. For tonight, that is all. [[Peace]] to each of you. Good night.

Let us speak, the, about the brotherhood of [[the kingdom]]. The brotherhood of the kingdom is [[composed]] of all who [[devote]] themselves [[sincerely]] to finding [[the Father]] and to doing His will. It [[encompasses]] not only your contemporaries, but all beings who, since [[time]] began, have sought, however feebly, to know [[the Father]]. It includes all those yet to come who will likewise [[dedicate]] themselves. [[The kingdom]], then, spans all [[pervaded space]], and extends to the ends of [[the universes]]. You are cherished members of a far-flung [[empire]], and the [[songs]] of [[praise]] issuing from every living [[heart]] fills [[the universe]] with [[joy]]. What a [[privilege]] it is to have [[self-conscious]] life, and to begin to [[perceive]] our part in the [[evolution]] and [[realization]] of the [[Supreme]]!

The [[superstitions]] of the [[past]] will die a natural [[death]], having no [[reality]] beyond that of a [[dream]]. The [[traditions]] which bind you to out-worn [[beliefs]] and limited [[conceptions]] likewise will fade away as the [[light]] of the new [[morning]] greets you. No longer is [[your planet]] under [[quarantine]]. The [[broadcasts]] of [[truth]] have begun. Not long, and the [[hearts]] of all [[good]] and [[God]]-seeking peoples will begin to feel the [[impressions]] of our [[messages]] to them. Not all will [[interpret]] the [[experience]] in the same way. There will be a great [[diversity]] of [[expression]], given the diversity of [[religions]] and [[cultures]] on [[your planet]] at this time. But the [[goal]] of all will be the same, to know that you are one [[family]], and that each is [[worthy]] of [[love]]. The people of [[Urantia]] long for planetary [[brotherhood]]. The [[links]] of [[communication]] on the [[material]] [[plane]] have taught you of your [[unity]]. More and more, spokesmen will arise to [[lead]] the people to a deeper [[realization]] of their [[inter-connectedness]]. More and more will you learn to [[think]] as a people concerned for the well being of the [[whole]]. [[Politically]], [[socially]], a new [[ethics]] will emerge. [[Separatism]] will begin to give way to [[alliances]]. You will see many [[changes]] in your lifetime.

Your [[work]], the work of this [[group]], is to take the [[message]] of [[Siblings|brother-hood]] to the common people. Take it with your [[words]], with your [[smiles]], with the glances of [[love]] you give to [[strangers]]. Know so completely and [[confidently]] the [[love]] of [[the Father]] for each and every one of his [[children]], that it [[radiates]] from you as a sweet [[fragrance]] wherever you may [[chance]] to be. Be [[gentle]] in your teachings. Let the waters of life gently wash upon the shores of the [[souls]] you encounter. I am not [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hurricane_andrew Andrew the hurricane]! Nor would we have you be! Be as the rains of [[Spring|springtime]] that coax the little [[seeds]] to sprout. Let the [[thirstiness]] of each one you encounter determine the [[quantity]] of refreshment you provide. Fro some, a sip is sufficient for the [[moment]]. For others, a cup. [[Study]] the [[techniques]] of [[the Master]] as he taught among the people of your realm.

Do not be [[anxious]] where you are to go, or what to do. [[Commune]] with y[[our Father]] in [[worship]] and [[silence]]; talk to our Father-Brother [[Michael]] in [[intimate]], personal [[prayer]]. Your [[angels]] are quite capable of guiding you. And your [[faithful]], devoted [[Adjusters]] work unceasingly to show you [[the Father]]'s will. We do not [[expect]] you to have [[attained]] great [[skill]] yet, in [[receiving]] the available [[guidance]]. But as your [[practice]] increases, so will your [[faith]], and with your increase in faith will come a clearer [[perception]] and [[recognition]] of the way. Choose with the will to [[do the Father's will]]; that is sufficient. Be [[sincere]]. And then [[trust]]. It is that [[simple]]. This concludes our lesson for today. Go now, and be glad. Let your [[hearts]] be filled with [[joy]] and [[peace]]. Good evening.

People will begin to [[believe]] in the [[possibility]] of [[peace]] and [[universal]] [[brotherhood]]. [[Fear]] will diminish.

It will be a flowering, a [[renaissance]], on a [[scale]] [[unknown]] before in [[the planet]]'s [[history]]. The [[Correcting Time|time of correcting]] will see all these things.
