Can you allow yourselves the [[beneficence]] to extend this same [[understanding]] to your fellows who would refuse such [[gifts]] now? Can you recall how [[incredulous]] you once were at even the [[idea]] of walking with [[God]]? I know you do, though these former [[stages]] of your life are now a [[part]] of your own [[soul]]’s [[history]] embedded in the [[archives]] of [[Nebadon]], the [[value]] that has accrued through all of these [[episodes]] is [[present]] now. The former [[things]] have disappeared, but the [[spirit]] that is being [[manifest]] now has filled these chasms across which you once built [[material]] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bridges bridges] that were [[necessary]] in your former [[state]].

It is the [[light]] of the [[spirit]] which has filled these empty places, [[caverns]], seemingly threatening at times, but now you see the open [[plain]] before you, and you are walking with us, and we will cover a great distance together. These bridges so called are unnecessary in this [[state]] because you are the extension of [[the Source]] of [[all things]] [[demonstrating]] the [[omnipresence]] of [[our Father]]. It is just such a living [[demonstration]] in [[mortal]] [[form]], in the [[appearance]] of a [[human]] life that your world will need to fill the many, many voids, the emptiness, the [[chasms]] of [[culture]] that separate [[mortals]] from one another. You will be the very substance over which many will [[Journey|traverse]] in their [[motion]] towards [[Paradise]] beheld now in your very [[presence]].

My [[friends]], thank you for [[sharing]] your lives with each other, and for [[demonstrating]] the [[recognition]] that indeed there are many [[different]] roles to be filled, but every one of them is characterized by the [[union]] of [[souls]] wholeheartedly [[invested]] in the realm of [[our Father]]’s [[spirit]], no longer clinging to the [[material]] forms that once served as these [[scaffoldings]] used to lift you up. You shall be this source of upliftment for your fellows who would refuse a [[part]], any part of [[our Father]] and his [[family]]. For it is not the [[gospel]] of the [[Urantia Book]], it is not the good news of the [[Magisterial Son]], it is not the [[proclamation]] of the coming of [[Teacher Sons]], no, it is not the sensational [[experience]] of seeing a [[Planetary Headquarters]] [[manifest]] upon your world. It is the [[simple]] [[truth]] of [[our Father]]’s [[love]] for all of his [[children]], this simple [[message]] that has been given from the beginning and will be enriched forever. This is the [[source]] of our [[union]].
