Changes

Your fine teacher, Daniel, took you on a most efficacious walk into the [[wonders]] of your beingness in connection with your [[animal]] origins. We did not [[design]] [[the universe]] so that "animal origins" would be a lowly and [[humiliating]] status, no. We, your Mother and I, designed this universe so that you could fully [[experience]] the [[pleasure]] of living in the flesh, of being bone and muscle and blood vessel, of having an [[organic]] computer as your [[brain]], of being able to [[touch]] each other [TR touches people on both sides of himself] and know that you are one in connection of that animal [[reality]].

Yes, I enjoyed living in this mortal [[body]] that I had created! [[Imagine]] the [[wonder]] that I experienced in my [[adolescence]] as it became clear to me that I was actually the designer and creator of this world that I was living in! Only at first did I have faint [[thoughts]] of this which I dismissed as [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megalomania megalomaniac] tendencies. I was careful, very careful not to tell anyone of these [[thoughts]]. But, as I grew older I became more and more [[aware]] of Who I was before I had [[incarnated]] as a man, as a baby, as a man to become. You will never know that particular experience; you are not [[Creator Son]]s [[becoming]] aware of your status. Long before I knew that I was dwelling in a body of my own creation I was [[happy]] to be a joyful kid, full of questions. But always did I know that [[profound]] [[love]] which I recognized in my [[parents]] as a reflection of something that I knew even more deeply. That is why by the time I was twelve I knew that my father's [[religion]] was [[flawed]], that the God of their [[understanding]] was not my Father. Yes, I knew that early on.

So, tonight, I want you to know how completely I [[understand]] you, my dear friends, my dear brothers and sisters! I am not some sorrowful figure hanging on a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crucifix crucifix], overwhelmed with the [[sin]] of the world, a [[sacrificial]] offering to an [[angry]] God to compensate for the innate [[evil]] of human nature. No! I am your brother. I am your joyful brother. I am your [[triumphant]] brother. I am your older brother. I do know the way, for I am the way in human flesh. Can you feel our common [[humanity]], my dear friends? Can you feel it? (Group: Yes!) Thank you. Thank you. I did not achieve my [[divinity]] by human [[effort]], but I did achieve my [[perfected]] [[humanity]] status by my efforts. Yes, I had an [[advantage]] over you. My [[Ta|Divine Monitor]] was none other than the One that indwelt [[Machiventa]]. It was very skilled. My Divine nature as a [[Michael Son]] was not something that you [[share]] either. But even though I had these [[advantages]] my human achievements were always done without the help of my divine nature. Not all my acts were solely from my human nature, no. I did act as a combined [[personality]]. But the achievement of my humanity was done as an [[animal]] origin being like yourselves.

Yes, [[this world]] really needs joyful [[humor]], not [[cynical]] humor. It needs the [[pleasure]] of seeing one's own [[progress]] and using that progress as a background to then laugh at one's previous immaturity, just as you laugh at the things children say when they do not [[understand]] what the words mean. Humor that is healthy appreciates [[progress]]. It does not make fun of [[self]] or others, as you know. So I want to say to you, "Keep on lightening up.

[[Our Father]] will have His way in the end. That which will not [[cooperate]] with Him will not continue. [[Evil]], [[sin]], and [[iniquity]] are time limited. They will not [[persist]]. I know it's hard living on [[this planet]]. In some ways I think it is harder for you than it was for me, for things are more [[complicated]]. I know some of you want to wave [[magic]] [[wand]]s that would eviscerate [[free will]] choice among those whom you deem to be unworthy by [[virtue]] of their [[behavior]]. Be careful with that thinking, my friends! For you are all a mix of levels of [[maturity]]. You all are capable of error. Do not judge your brothers and sisters. No magic wand will be provided for it is [[contrary]] to my Father's [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_directive prime directive].

I was [[tempted]] with the [[magic]] [[wand]], remember? I was very strongly tempted to use my [[power]], to summon legions of [[angels]] to my side, to do things my way. Oh, yes, I was tempted in my human nature. That was not an unreal imaginary [[experience]]. I understood my brother and sister [[Adam and Eve]] better after I was in this flesh. I could understand how [[frustrated]] they got and how they thought that they knew best. When I said to my Father, "If it is possible take this cup away from me", of course I thought there might be that possibility. I didn't see why I had to die in such a [[manner]] until I was [[reconciled]] to my [[guidance]]. Then I was truly able to say, "Nevertheless, not my will but Yours be done". My basic unquestioning [[trust]] in my Father triumphed. I knew that even though I couldn't understand it, at that moment, He had never let me down; that I was completing [[119:7 The Seventh and Final Bestowal|my bestowal]] experience on a broader canvass than many of many of my brothers of my order; that it was not a mistake on the part of my Father and your Father.
