What a wonderful welcoming atmosphere we have here this evening. I am always
made to express my gratitude to Father each time we meet. You have become an
important part of my life and I am with ever growing love for you each. When we
take a moment to ponder our status within the Kingdom, our relationship with the
Father and our fellowship with one another, it surely brings us to a place of
worshipful gratitude.<o:p></o:p></FONT></SPAN></P>

style="FONT-SIZE: 14pt"><FONT face="Times New Roman">Last week we discussed
desires and weaknesses, and learning how to grow into the person we are truly
meant to be. If you could picture yourself as a tri-fold personality, you would
envision that divine part of yourself as a Parent, your learning and aware
humble self as a child and your ego-self representing the animal nature. Many
are quick to recognize this animal nature and chastise the self without at all
considering the child within.<o:p></o:p></FONT></SPAN></P>

style="FONT-SIZE: 14pt"><FONT face="Times New Roman">If you could remove all
those self-imposed labels you have become attached to over the years, you would
see standing before you a wide-eyed child with an enthusiasm for learning and
adventure. As mortal life happens the child within seems to become buried with
misunderstanding. Many times one is apt to hide the child, as if it is weak and
vulnerable by allowing the animal nature to be put into the forefront, as if it
is the child's protector. To Father the child is not one who is weak and in need
of enlightenment due to inexperience or ignorance,
no.<o:p></o:p></FONT></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in -0.5in 0pt 0in"><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 14pt"><FONT face="Times New Roman">To Father the child is a
seed expected to sprout into a beautiful living part of all there is. You are
each His beloved child, who He loves as if you are His only child. The child
within is innocent, is apt to make mistakes, is prone to learn by experience.
This is indeed your mortal self. This is a precious gift not to be covered over
or stifled by making it to be something other than it is. The child-self does
have weaknesses, certainly, and this is where our divine or Parent-self can help
to minister.<o:p></o:p></FONT></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in -0.5in 0pt 0in"><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 14pt"><FONT face="Times New Roman">As you grow in your
spiritual careers you foster your relationship with the divine Caretakers. This
is indeed the better part of you. This is the higher self. This is the Parent to
your child within. The ego or animal-self would find it his place to chastise
the child and cover over with non-realty. The divine Parent would find the root
of any dilemma and focus on a better way, a way that causes hope and enthusiasm
to rise within--not shame or guilt. As long as you dwell in the flesh the animal
rebellious side will for the most part always be with you. It is part of the
Father's plan. It is the lesson you must learn in order to reach the
Father.<o:p></o:p></FONT></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in -0.5in 0pt 0in"><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 14pt"><FONT face="Times New Roman">As we encourage the mature
divine Parent to become one with us, we can give the child within the personal
ministry it needs. Usually when weaknesses are apparent in any individual, that
is simply a message that the child within is feeling an emptiness and needs to
be tended to. I am not saying to indulge the self into temporary comfort, no. I
am saying allow that higher-self, that is you, to minister to that child-soul
within. Keep not with the tradition of self-punishment through shame. Focus more
upon the divine Parent showing the child a new and better way through truth,
beauty and goodness. To feel shame is to hide. To know that you are truly
understood and loved as you are is to be open to direct divine
guidance.<o:p></o:p></FONT></SPAN></P>

that child within. How can your Parent-self bring fulfillment and strength when
those weaknesses seem to be coming forth? How can you keep the rebellious animal
side from causing the child to hide and forgo learning experience? A few

style="FONT-SIZE: 14pt">: Yes Abraham. Thank you so much for personal meeting
last week. It is the first one I have had with you in over six months. Truly
valuable and things I was starting to pick up, you put all them together
beautifully. Since then I have made a decision based on information that wasn’t
completely worked out last Thursday when we met. I have decided to go full
forces ahead with this project, steppingstone toward other things, as you are
aware of. Do you have any council that you could lend me that would allow me to
more effectively accomplish this goal? <o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>

move forward with integrity as if you are working side-by-side with the Master
Himself, because indeed you are. Be aware that as you work for yourself, you are
also working for the whole. Be cautious to make sure you are seeing reality and
not some grand ideal. You are with intelligence and strength to move forward in
a correct path. Carry on.<o:p></o:p></FONT></SPAN></P>

style="FONT-SIZE: 14pt"><FONT face="Times New Roman">LUKE: Abraham, my question
is about how I am explaining my religion to my wife, who is becoming more
conservative, bible based and solid in those beliefs that exclude any other
thought like the Urantia Book. I don’t know if you are aware of how these
conversations go between my wife and I, but I could use your advice on how to
better explain or teach her in a better way what I am
doing.<o:p></o:p></FONT></SPAN></P>

style="FONT-SIZE: 14pt"><FONT face="Times New Roman">ABRAHAM: Your wife is
pursuing what she believes is best and this is many times difficult to persuade
toward different thinking. You can tell her in this way: ‘Look at the man that I
am and the fruits produced in my life. You are not responsible for my salvation
or condemnation. You are allowed free will to pursue what you truly believe, and
if you are believing your gospel, than you will allow me my free will. Father
will minister to His children in the way He sees fit and each child has every
right to travel any path to Him.’ Ask her to allow you time to show forth more
fruits in your relationship and lives to prove to her you are not on a path to
hell. She is not going to be punished in any way for being with you--a different
believer, nor is she going against God, the Father, for building a life with
you, no. She would however have missed out on a great opportunity to have a life
with you and a solid family if she should allow her regimented, inflexible
beliefs to win out over the reality of the living fruits produced. Is this
helping? (Very much. Thanks Abraham.) You’re welcome. One more
question.<o:p></o:p></FONT></SPAN></P>

I believe it says in the Urantia book that it is very difficult for humans to
contact their Thought Adjuster. My question is that now with the Correcting Time
happening, the re-incircuitment all about us, is it easier for mortals to do
that and is it possible that people are connecting with the Thought Adjuster
much more regularly?<o:p></o:p></FONT></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in -0.5in 0pt 0in"><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 14pt"><FONT face="Times New Roman">ABRAHAM: Good question, my
son. Mortals are not having so much trouble connecting with the Thought Adjuster
as are they receiving from the Thought Adjuster. It is simple for mortals to
send thoughts, pray or meditate, in other words, sending out. It is more
difficult for mortals to receive actual direct contact, but as you said, the
re-incircuitment and the Correcting Time has indeed opened a new door. Most of
Father's children have personal circuits that make this communication with the
Adjuster easier. Many times this communication seems to be so natural that one
is likely to push it aside as wishful thinking. The Thought Adjuster
communication comes in a form you are most likely to understand. You will not
hear the voice of God with sounding trumpets and drama, no. As individuals are
tending to their spiritual life they are becoming more skilled at recognizing
the Adjuster communication. Good question Tetra.<o:p></o:p></FONT></SPAN></P>
