Question #2: Are these [[interventions]] you speak of truly [[classified]] as the [[providence]] of [[God]]?  Please [[explain]] the [[presence]] of [[providence]] in the [[work]] of [[Urantia]]’s [[Correcting Time]], especially as you may see the [[work]] of [[the Supreme]] here.

Monjoronson:  I will first address the question by making a broad general statement that wherever the divine Sons function God is extending His hand into the affairs of His children.  Therefore the presence of Michael, Mother Spirit, myself, and many other Paradise origin beings function providentially.  However, I must stress that this providence is not in the form of a miraculous extension of the divine, but it is a utility, a means whereby the divine makes contact with creatures and therefore is from our perspective an ordinary duty.  However as creatures respond to the reach of God into their lives they reveal certain strengths and certain weaknesses.  This is a Supreme response to the Almighty God, that is the creatures’ actions, they become a form of prayer, and providence will function specifically to bring healing or revelation to that individual, for when any of you begin to function with us in uplifting this world or perhaps a community or even smaller groups such as your family, God will assure that each one is touched by His truth and that wisdom is enhanced that all may function in harmony together.

While it is observed that the action of God within the lives of human beings by human beings to be a special event, I must stress that it is not so forthcoming as a response to dire need, but it is rather bestowed in response to creature openness and willingness to receive.
