Dear Folks, please excuse the delay in getting this message from Mother Spirit out sooner. I ran into some unexpected work, but I'll send the first part of her lesson now and send the question-and-answer part later this week. Thanks for your patience; enjoy--Jerry.
 



Mother Spirit Lightline - February 25, 2016.


 


Dear Mother Spirit and Michael, welcome. Welcome. Come and
be with us, although


we know deep in our hearts--as we open our hearts and minds
to you--that you are


always already here. Your presence is within us and all
around us. 


Still and all, we do admit to ourselves that your very
nature is nigh incomprehensible in


spite of all the ways that the human race has personified
you, in all the goddesses of


all the religions and cultures of the world. This is why we
are very thankful for our 


wonderful Urantia Book with its whole chapters on you and
Michael, giving us all of 


your attributes.


Yet still you are nigh incomprehensible! We can only imagine
what it is having a


soul of experience of hundreds of billions of years now, so
many times more than what


our science tells us is the age of the universe. We can only
imagine what it is to be 


spread out over so many thousands of cubic light years of
space, attending to your 


children on nearly four million inhabited worlds like
ours--plus on all the architectural 


spheres of our local universe. 


You have invited us so often to go out on a clear, star-lit
night when there is no moon 


to out-shine all the little ones, just see and open our
minds and hearts to the Milky Way 


out there in the whole sky. We can imagine you spread out
across all of that. Then 


to think you are right within us, part of us, part of our
minds, part of our own creative 


spirit. 


So, dear personal being who is on the very edge and beyond
of our comprehension, 


we do sincerely appreciate that you can talk to us. You
delight in transmitting to us, 


and you have let us know so many times that any of us—not
just me and other 


Transmitter-Receivers--but any of us with a mind to do it,
can receive you. Anyone can 


open their little recorder and record what you have to say.
In this too you are truly 


universal. For all of this we do thank you. Amen.


Nebadonia: Good evening, my children. This is your Mother
Spirit, and I thank you for 


your kind and generous invitation. As Michael and I have
taught so often, it is a good 


thing for you to be humble, for it is a spiritual blessing
to acknowledge that which is so 


much greater than yourselves. It helps you keep in touch
with us, for Michael and I, like


any proud parents, delight when you address yourselves to us
and say hello. We really 


enjoy that, so again, this is an open invitation that just
anytime, anytime it occurs


to you, day or night, we appreciate it when you set aside a
few minutes in your busy 


lives to be quiet, and still, and say, “Hello Michael. Hello
Mother Spirit. Thank you 


for me.”


Tonight I would like to talk about a few of your attributes,
a few of your dimensions


of being human. I think the greatest of these is the way you
are so much like our


universal Father, like God himself. It is the way you can
share your lives with others. It


is called companionship--your ability and desire to have
companions with whom to


share your days and your nights. This is part of God’s great
nature, this whole notion


of sharing oneself, or none of us would exist. We can know
that each of us shares a 


little spark of his infinity. 


As you have been told, and it is so true, that your very
personality, your


uniqueness coming right from him--as does Michael’s and
mine--cannot in any way


be finally or ultimately captured. In this we are most like
him, and we belong not only 


to ourselves, but to him as well. We share our inner lives
with him.


Then you can choose to share your lives with the others
around you. This is that 


magical one-and-one-makes-three because, first, you have
your unique personality like 


no other. Second, your companion is like you in this, in
that he or she too is utterly 


unique among all other people. When the two of you get
together, you both share 


another third dimension that is equally unique to just the
two of you. 


This is companionship--this friendship, this shared soulful
quality, because you are now 


in each other forever. Your souls are as open to yourselves
and to each other as you 


acquire the ability to tune in--tune into yourself and tune
in to each other. You can 


share your histories, your actual living experience.


True companionship gives you so much. Above all it gives you
a way of escaping what 


we sometimes call the prison of self. I am sure you
all know some poor, unfortunate 


soul who is so self-centered, so totally insecure in
themselves and in their life, they are 


desperately clinging on to themselves and can hardly be
companionable at all. You try 


to carry on a conversation with them and all they are doing
is waiting for you to


be quiet so they can express themselves. No matter what you
say to them, if it


doesn’t directly relate to them in some way or another, it
is meaningless to them.


By their example you can know in your own self, in your own
soul, what a terrible 


prison this is. Your own companionship and your own delight
in sharing yourself and 


enjoying other folks can be the most precious experiences of
your life. Because if you 


can let go, if you do have the wonderful quality of
self-forgetfulness, you can take in


another totally. Then if they too have this wonderful
quality of self-forgetfulness, this 


third dimension of the-two-of-you, the companionship,
becomes a very lively dance all 


by itself, does it not? Who knows where it will go? Who
knows what it can encompass?-


-because you are both bringing your own unfathomable souls
to the present moment.


For remember: you are both somewhat infinite to yourselves.
This is the state of 


your existence, my children: you can only know your own
souls kind-of moment-by-


moment. You await that magical transformation, sometime in
the future, you will have


that promised moment of becoming one with your own soul and
the presence of its co-


author, God himself. This will be the fusion of all that you
are and have been, wrapped 


up in this unfathomable soul of yours. 


But until that transformation, what a wonderful thing to let
your soul come forth 


and remind you of all you’ve been. This humility of
realizing all that you are and 


have been gives you the ability to acknowledge all that your
companion is too. 


This is the promise and the actual reward of companionship,
of having real, honest-to-


God, living and breathing companions with whom to share your
life.


All this comes about with the help of another great quality
I’d like to talk about


tonight, and that is curiosity.
Let’s pause a moment to wonder: what is it? (I must


confess I am teasing you with the very thing) What is
curiosity? What is it that


catches your attention, sometimes even in spite of
yourself--especially when you


were younger and didn’t have that much control over
yourself. What is it that captures


you and says, “Look here! What is this?” 


It could be whole world all around you, strange and new and
maybe even a little scary. 


Think of your delightful little furry creatures and the
nursery-rhyme notation that 


curiosity kills the cat. Of course as you grow older, you
realize that curiosity is just part 


of their nature to examine everything, though perhaps the
more cynical among you 


would say that it is just their hunting instinct, looking
for some other little furry thing to 


pounce on and eat. Or maybe you have seen cats prowling
around and standing up to 


look out the windows like some nervous gun-fighter,
wondering about some bigger cat 


that might eat them.


But in human beings, curiosity is an innate soul-hunger to
know what is out there. What 


is all around you? Even at a very young age it includes
wondering: what am I? What 


are these little wiggling things on the end of my arms; then
exploring and finding


you have hands and feet and even a stomach that gets hungry.
All this curiosity leads


you to discover everything you know, everything you contact
to understand. 


It is a wonderful hunger because it can be satiated. It can
be fulfilled. It can lead you to 


a kind of ease for a while as you sit there with all you
have come into contact, and 


know, and understand. You can let it all go in a
good-night’s sleep and even dream of 


it all in all its mystery.


Curiosity led you to the others all around you. As you let
go of your family, your 


mother and father, and maybe brothers and sisters, and
headed out there to school—


your first, second, and third grade, your class room;
remember all the others you met 


your own age, and the curiosity. Who were they? What was
this sex thing? What


were boys? What were girls? Why were you and they the way
you were?


What a wonderful blessing curiosity is. And what a terrible
tragedy it is with those who 


feel they are cursed with curiosity, that some way or
another they have to numb out 


to shut it off. They just want to close in upon themselves
and not be curious about 


others because, perhaps, they never acquired the social
skills to satisfy, to share 


in joy with others and satisfy their curiosity. So think of
the satisfaction, my dear ones, 


that has led you to know so much. 


I would like to mention one other attribute that I actually
help increase right within


you. If you will, I augment another real ability of yours.
As I mentioned companionship-


-what your Urantia Book calls my Mind/Spirit of
Counsel—helping you enjoy each other 


as you counsel together and share your experience—this is
the mind/creative spirit 


quality of courage.  


What is courage? If new experience it is one of the most
crucial, welcome, and 


valuable of attributes, the ability that enables you to do
difficult things is itself so 


precious. Seen in this light, you can never have too much of
it--not the real stuff. 


Instead you might have a kind of fake courage you call
fool-hardiness, a lack of


acknowledgement and respect for the situation where you just
charge blindly into 


something, and perhaps get wiped out for that very reason.


Genuine courage is not being fool-hardy. It is exactly the
opposite. It means with all


the fear and trembling that fills your soul, your mind, your
spirit, even your whole body,


you are still able to act. You still to have the
determination to do the right thing. 


Think how this necessary attribute feeds and supports your
curiosity, to not only be 


curious, but to have the courage to explore it. For that
exploration can extend to all the 


aspects of you. Physical courage is needed to get out there
and do whatever it is, 


perhaps even risk your life and limb--as you say. 


Then to follow your curiosity about “what if…” or “wouldn’t
it be nice to…”—you can fill 


in the blank—it takes mental courage to be open-minded and
not just cling to what you 


have already known and experienced, but to let all that go,
put it all on the line because 


something new suggests itself. Or you are simply in an
honest experiment and you 


have to find the courage to be open-minded to whatever comes
out.


Some of your famous scientists have said that they suddenly
encountered some new 


fact that challenged everything they believed up to that
point. They had to have the 


courage to let all that investment in time and energy go in
order to follow this new 


thing that appeared to be negating everything they had known
up to that point, and 


simply, but profoundly, step off into the unknown. So this
is another dimension of mine 


that I share with you, this thing of courage, of
determination, of the ability to do what 


your heart, your mind, and your soul suggests.


Now, my dear ones, if you have any questions or comments on
these attributes of 


being human, or anything else, let us both open our minds
and welcome them. Come 


forth if you will.
