Session
Opening

Prayer: Divine Parents, once again it is our pleasure to seek you out in our lives in this way, to come forward towards you with our arms outstretched as the little ones who would be picked up and held and loved by the likes of you. Help us to feel your warm embrace, your love surrounds us in these times. Help us to recall this embrace throughout our days and throughout all the days of our lives. Help us to be close to you so that we may feel this loving embrace always as it is, even now. Help us to make this so as we know you are always reaching down to embrace us. Thank you for such an embrace. I would now make vocal petition for your emissaries of light, your brokers of peace and love to join us, even to commune with us, even to contact us, even now.

Lesson

MICHAEL:  I would embrace this opportunity at this time, I am Michael and just as I have spoken plainly to you that I open the door wherein you may approach me, I appreciate your gesture now of throwing wide the door so that I may approach you. As above, so below, the children are designed to resemble the parents and so it is you have this desire to open this door and allow spirit to flow just like we do. So it is you desire to feel the embrace of spirit that we share, just like we do.

So it is you seek the comfort of our communing together, just like we do. You are not so very different than those of us you consider your Divine Parents. You are merely growing into the selves that are your potential. You are merely filling out and becoming full fledged mortals of the realm and this process of becoming grown up and adults in this experience bring you to the realization that your mortal heritage is but one of the legacies that you have to experience. It is but one of the experiences you will grow to cherish in your traversing of your eternal career.

And so it is with great sweetness that we join you here at this juncture of time and space for you. It is a delight to share this experience with you as you have the capacity to share it with us, for this experience that seems so all encompassing and even overwhelming at times is but a transient step in this long career before you. In fact, it is but a fleeting moment in the scope of the travels that we have planned for you, in the travels that you have embraced as part of the design of your future.

At no other point will we meet like this in these fractured episodes, in these on again/off again episodes. In your future incarnations there will be greater connection, greater awareness and we will not seem so far apart or so distant from each other at all. But in this go-around, in this life on Urantia, you must struggle with apparent darkness wherein there is great potential for you to become the light, for you to bring your spirit awareness into this place where it is not abundant. This episode of your incarnation is one where you are given the opportunity to hold fast to your faith, to cling to your spiritual awareness that there are bigger truths and greater realities just beyond the veil of mortal-ism.

No where else will this challenge be so great, no where else will this growth opportunity be so present before you. All your other incarnations will be more and more tainted with your awareness of connection and belonging, with your sense of connection to all that is greater than yourself as you perceive it. But in this life, one must grapple with this apparent isolation and oppressive darkness and in this scenario, one is presented with ample opportunity to summon their faith, to find that aspect of spirit within them and hold fast and cling to this element of your being having found it in the darkness.

Blessed are those who have become aware of who they are, even in the absence of example. Blessed are those who will unfold who they are surrounded by contrast. It is you I refer to who are blessed, who are the ones who will find your true selves in this environment and will take these elements of yourself forward into your eternal career, eventually arriving at the destinations of Light and Life, the First Source and Center and the reunification of your Fragment with the whole. These are phrases which can mean little to you now but you will come to experience them, indeed live them and become them and in this way you will travel the road, the path set out before you, in this way you will return home.

I know there is a heaviness in your hearts these days of wondering as things become shaken and stirred and the sand shifts even beneath your feet. One can wonder what is of permanence, what should I cling to, what will survive? But in your hearts you know the answers to these questions for your mortal existence simply will not and cannot survive indefinitely in time and space. It was designed to be this way, that this first illiterate experience of yours is to be had with such darkness and contrast that you may reach out and find those aspects which are permanent and real and enduring in the process and these aspects are of divine nature. They are aspects of love, aspects of truth, aspects of beauty, aspects of goodness and aspects of peace.

Where these elements are present you will find enduring qualities, you will find friendships which will endure, love which lasts forever, peace which reigns within and overflows out. These divine aspects are limitless and you have come to identify them as the enduring components of your experience.

And so you seek to gather these to yourself, to have and to hold these gems of permanence and you are right to do so because these things you will take with you on your journey. These things which contribute to your spiritual growth will be retained, if not in minute detail, certainly within the composition of your being. So I applaud you all for discovering what is real and sustainable in this life and how else would this be accomplished if it were not for adversity, contrast and change, where things that you thought you would hold dear become shaken and crumble and things that you know inside to be real remain unchanged as the sands shift around you.

Your love for each other, your love for your parents, your craving for the truth, your appreciation of goodness and beauty, this life was designed to create these experiences for you so that you could develop this sense of things that remain unchanged and things that change with time and space. So again, I am thrilled to join you at this stage of your evolution because later, at different stages, we will enjoy referring back to this time spent on this darkened planet of Urantia where you had to find the light and bring the light and have discovered that you can be the light. How else, if it were not dark, would you discover such a thing?

So while it may seem to you at times cruel and heartless to have so much uncertainty and doubt and turmoil, I assure you there is a purpose to all this. Certainly all that you experience may be used and utilized to bring you into greater awareness wherein we can consider the mission accomplished. I invite you to bring this long term perspective into your journey, invite you to rest in peace that while it may not appear so in any given instant of time, you may come to know, each one, that all is progressing towards an ultimate good and positive state. This is by divine order and plan and if not evident here and now, certainly throughout your journey will this truth become real.

To all the children of light, what should it matter is all things earthly perish. This is just a statement but indeed a profound truth for all things earthly will pass from one state to another, one time to another, change will be the order of business in a time/space experience such as this. But to you who have found yourselves as spiritual beings, this will not disrupt your constants, your view of the long term which enables you to ride the turbulence knowing that you are cared for and loved, even cherished and this truth will not change.

So I invite you to relax in this truth, to take it in, weave it into your being, exhibit this profound peace to all those around you and when they perceive your peace amidst this turmoil, I invite you to respond to their questioning by affirming that you are a spiritual being having a mortal experience which is transient and you are looking forward to your long sojourn, your eternal career back home.

Closing

MICHAEL:  Be at peace my dear ones and be the light in the darkness. It does not take much of a candle to bring light to a great many. You have this opportunity before you, to be a steadfast flame that will not flicker out in doubt, that will not be put out by the elements. You will be steadfast and burn brightly regardless of what goes on around you and in this way you will bring a bearing to all others who will use your light as a reference and will desire to anchor themselves to it for security as something that is changeless in a changing environment and you will do this by sheer will, by sheer force of will. This is your opportunity.

I pray you take my words deep into your being as a soothing salve, that you accept my spirit embrace with you and you feel this connection we share now and will share always. One day we will recall with fondness, the trials and tribulations of your experience on such a world as this where you learned faith.
