am ABRAHAM. Greetings. How wonderful it is to be with believers this evening. I
feel relaxed and un-pressured. You each make me feel like this is an evening at
home. This </SPAN><st1:City><st1:place><SPAN

style="FONT-SIZE: 16pt"> is my job right now. It is surely what I love to do. It
is not without difficulty. Certainly it takes a great deal of effort and energy,
but to be here with you, my friends, I feel at ease. I thank you for that and
your continuing faith in the mortal agreement. Mortal agreement being--you have
accepted your call and are committed to fulfilling it from the mortal ground on
up.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

am MARY. It is an honor for me to also serve and feel that rejuvenation in mind
and spirit. I am joy-filled knowing you accept me as I am. You know from where I
came and much of my history. In many religious organizations I would not be
accepted and feel the comfort that I do in the Teaching Mission. I am thankful
you accept me as I am.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 16pt">These present days have reminded me of days long ago
when the Master walked the earth. I am in a new seat where I can see a great
deal that is going on with the people of Urantia. Of course, long ago I could
not see much for I was in the middle of the action. I am seeing energy that
travels in waves, emotions and minds catching onto certain popularity’s and
creating waves of energy that really travel throughout the world. Much of
today’s anxiety is about individuals being caught up in the unknown and most
figure they should jump on some ship to stay afloat.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

style="FONT-SIZE: 16pt">People are having to take chances in faith to really
live and learn, to gain experience, to have growth and the wisdom therefrom.
When some learn about the </SPAN><st1:City><st1:place><SPAN

style="FONT-SIZE: 16pt"> they are hesitant because it is new, non-traditional.
On the other hand, it is new and exciting and without doctrine. The
</SPAN><st1:City><st1:place><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 16pt">Mission</SPAN></st1:place></st1:City><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 16pt"> is not a ship that people are to jump onto, cling for
the sake of faith, no. The </SPAN><st1:City><st1:place><SPAN

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 16pt">You
are free thinkers and yet there is not liberty without license. There are not
actions without accountability. This is responsible cosmic citizenship. I like
the philosophy of Michael’s </SPAN><st1:City><st1:place><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 16pt">Mission</SPAN></st1:place></st1:City><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 16pt"> because it allows you to think freely, to question, to
experience and to learn for yourself. You need not stand out above the crowd,
nor sink below. You need not become unified with some wave of energy that is
probably just mortal drama, some temporary explanation to the unknown. You are
in understanding that there is time to think. This is only the beginning and you
need not ride someone else’s wave of faith. The cosmic mind is for the many, not
simply the few who look to be living a righteous life.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 16pt">I
admire the Master’s courage that day when the temple of old was cleansed from
the profiteers. This day surely represented the ability of the mortal to set
aside the craving for attention to do the right thing. This was a big day for
the Master and the apostles. Jesus was at the height of His popularity. His
following increased in numbers. Jesus was at the podium, set to give a grand
speech that would certainly reach the heart of His hearers. When the Master saw
all that was going on, the build-up of years of injustice that was occurring, He
was ever so happy to set aside what He had planned in favor of being spirit-led.
Thus began the chaos that was to clear the temple.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 16pt">What He did was simple. When you think about it, it was
a small action powered by an idea from the Father. In the minds and spirits of
individuals, they recognized this goodness that was about to be the voice for
their injustice and certainly this wave of energy was fueled by the spirit, that
was recognized on a soul level by the people. This was one small change that was
to make a lasting impression in the minds of man.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 16pt">This week let us be aware of the waves of energy that
are fueled by the spirit or by man’s wishful thinking. How do we further a
cause? How are our minds set to be influenced? Is it something we want or
something that Father wants? Is it our will or God’s will? I am overwhelmed at
times because the energies are visual to me. Yes, I have some compassion for you
that are to maintain in these present times. That is all for this evening. Our
love goes with you. Until next time,
shalom.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P></DIV></BODY></HTML>
