Teacher: The Beloved.
Subject: “Practice Brings Perfection.”
Message received by Lytske.
The Beloved: “Pray for the gift of increasing sincerity on the road to perfection. They are the truly pure and sincere of heart that shall see God.
Be comforted in the knowledge that the infinite God knows all, and sees your hidden struggles. I do see a growing sincerity and purity in you, while at the same time you are becoming more painfully aware of your shortcomings and your failures, usually due to thoughtlessness and impatience.
There is a great need for you to discipline your thoughts, to be watchful of negativity, and to ban these at once. I know that this is a most difficult lesson to learn, as you are not in the most favorable environment to make this easy for you.
Don’t you see, My beloved, that this is how you are tested? To spur you on to greater vigilance and self-discipline? I know only too well how discouraged and disappointed you can be with yourself, because of your reactions to others, but this is how you learn, step by tiny step.
Did you ever see a toddler get discouraged in its attempts to walk? Of course not! The child takes great pride and satisfaction with every step gained, and gets a great deal of encouragement from its significant others, who cheer it on.
This is also true for you, in that you are cheered on by Me, and all unseen beings, who are observing your efforts on your path.
We are pleased with every bit of progress you humans make in the area of overcoming your baser creature tendencies, especially all forms of addictive self-gratification. Learn to forget the self in loving service toward others.
I know that you have much to learn, but there is always time to get it right, for practice brings perfection. There is no need to get stressed out over this. Ease up on yourself, and learn to joyfully live in the moment.
The more often you come to Me in the Stillness, the easier it gets.
Therefore, stay close to Me.”

Subject: “About Concretiz-Action.”
Message received by Anyas.
Thought Adjuster: “The imagination is a creative engine that endows you with incommensurate powers — inconceivable to human creatures at their initial planetary stage.
The reasoning that led the Father to shower you with such inordinate powers of manifestation made generous allowances for the spiritual immaturity of his evolutionary creatures. For damage control, he judiciously limited their co-creative powers. Some of your folk tales colorfully depict the negative repercussions that occur when some unwise individual is granted the instant fulfillment of wishes prompted by self-centered tendencies.
Your all-wise Father does not indiscriminately go along with human whims. He submits all petitions to thorough quality control. Evolutionary creatures, encapsulated in a physical embodiment, operate within the boundaries of time and space, which restricts their freedom of movement. As well, the law of cause and effect is both a great teacher and disciplinarian due to its inescapable karmic boomerang effect.
Once your imagination enlists as a referee the threefold input of truth, beauty, and goodness, it can safely move to the implementation phase. This concretiz-action process will upgrade your sensory reality following the divine matrix.
Sound wishful thinking is the precursor of judicious co-creative undertakings. Acting upon your intentions is a giant consequential step. What is done, is done. Once poured into foundations, concrete hardens. Reversing that process requires the expertise of concrete cutters.
The enduring process of concretization turns your worthwhile achievements into cornerstones for more of the same. Thoroughly scrutinize your intentional portfolio. Do not take action until you get the green light from on high. Love is patient. Never exclude it from your undertakings.”

Teacher Prolotheos.
Subject: “Planning Your Life.”
Received by Valdir Soares.
Prolotheos: “Planning your life is both important and necessary. Human beings have stepped out through evolution and personalization, from the fetters of strictly instinctive animal life’, and the capacity for making plans is the evidence thereof. There is no doubt that you, as the main agent of what your life will become, have the most important role in its planning. However, in planning your life, there are others you must take into consideration, that is, God and your fellow human beings. If you discard them from your plan, rest assured that your life, while it might be materially successful, will not be wholesome or meaningful. So, in visualizing what you want your life to be, make sure that not only you, but also God and other people have their places in it. On planning your life, make sure three things will guide you: Purpose, principles, and flexibility.
“On your day, in the most advanced societies of your world, it seems that people’s life purposes orbit around pleasure, fame and money. Are they worth of human pursuit? In your country, your Magna Carta calls the purpose of life ‘the pursuit of happiness’. There is nothing wrong with making happiness the purpose of your life, because that is the precise purpose our Creator Father has for all His children. The problem is how you go about the pursuit of your happiness. If you seek happiness in a selfish way, you may find satisfaction in your life, but not happiness. However, if you’ve already come to the conclusion that your happiness depends on other people’s happiness, and you make your and their happiness a common pursuit, then true happiness can be experienced.
“Having a great purpose in your life is essential, but that is not all. Besides that, you need principles. Principles are the guidelines of your life. They mark the way you are going to pursue your purpose in life. Your principles can reflect three possibilities: Your way, other people’s way, or God’s way. Among those there is no doubt; the best way is the way of God, for God’s will represents not only what is best for you, but best for all. If you choose God’s way, you must strive to lead your life based on truth, love and service. Someone who seeks truth, harbors love in his or her heart, promotes other people’s lives through unselfish service, and has found the way of true happiness.
“Purpose and principles make up the core of your life’s plan, but they are not enough if you are not a flexible person. Although you should have short-, medium- and long-term plans for your life, you must be open to make changes when necessary. In making plans for your life, you should be aware of three ‘elements’ that invariably cause you to turn to them, as you live your life. These are: Unexpected circumstances, your interaction with other people, and the plans of the Spirit Within for your spiritual development. These three, but specially the Spirit of God in you, with His spiritualizing influence in your life, will make you consider changes to your life’s plan – and sometimes these changes will be of great import.
“You may have, and should have, my dear pupil, a life-plan for your passage from Urantia. Life is much more meaningful when it is first thought out and then lived. That is called living awareness. Your life is your responsibility. However, there is plenty of help available for you, so you can conduct it to fulfill a great purpose. Mainly, be aware of the leadings of Spirit Within, guiding you according to the will of God, so, even in the midst of challenges and trials, you may, in the end, have grown spiritually, which after all is what really counts.
“I am Prolotheos, your celestial tutor, honored to contribute to your and others’ spiritual growth.”

Alabama, US of A, February 21, 2014.
Teacher: Thought Adjuster.
Subject: “Unconditionally Accepted”
Message received by Oscar.
Thought Adjuster: “The presence of God in human life is only demonstrable through the individual experience of each soul. This experience can be unconscious like a sensation of being safe and a trust that somehow everything is well and our destiny is secured. The presence of God is not an intellectual realization or an idea to offer solace to overwhelmed minds when the normal situations of life bring them challenges and trials.
You can feel the presence of God when you observe the fruits of spirit manifesting in your life. A common one is the peace that feels like a balm in the lives of those who know they are children of God. This is not an expression of ease when everything goes well. It is rather a state of calm that is not altered even when everything seems wrong. It is the certainty that even when appearances suggest the opposite, the universe is under control and it is a place where we are unconditionally accepted.
The fruits of spirit seldom have anything to do with the desires of human beings. The wishes of men are generally materialistic and are his intellectual creations. The fruits of spirit arise spontaneously, even when a person knows that she may have never consciously wished for such things, because before a spiritual awakening, those things were undefinable to her. Human beings can desire to love their peers, but when this love truly becomes an experience in their lives through the effort of knowing the Father better, they discover that the characteristics and the way in which this love is expressed could have not been anticipated before in their lives.
The spiritual fruits are always surprising in their modes of expression, but not in their eventual achievement. All those who truly desire to know the will of the Father and then consciously decide to align themselves with this will can be certain of the appearance of those banners of perfection that so eloquently announce to the universes that another human being has awakened to her true purpose.”

Teacher: The Beloved.
Subject: “All I Ask of You.”
Message received by Lytske.
The Beloved: “The best way to grow in spirit is to always choose the better way – the way of truth, beauty and goodness. In everything, even in the ordinary humdrum of life, it is spirit value that you must seek, and in doing so you will be inspired and lifted up.
Indeed, life can become an experience of resurrection when you turn your mind away from the depressing and fear-ridden tomb mentality and into the sunlight of the risen Christ who overcame all manner of evil and injustice perpetrated against Him.
By steadfastly refusing to use His power as the Creator and Ruler of this mighty universe, and in His triumph, He showed once and for all that even death has no hold on Him. Even as the Son of Man, the title which He earned during His life in the flesh, He triumphed over physical death. This is His gift to you, the knowledge of life everlasting!
Great was His faithfulness to His Father in heaven when He proclaimed the love of the Father for all His mortal offspring on earth, as well as announcing the brotherhood and sisterhood of all humankind under God.
After His Ascension, He sent His promised Helper, the Spirit of Truth, whilst at the same time the Father gave His Gifts, Fragments of himself in great numbers to indwell the minds of mortals. Ever since that day as well, the Mother Spirit contributed Her Holy Spirit as the Comforter to indwell all mortals.
Indeed, you have never been cosmic orphans. It is merely human forgetfulness that makes everything look bleak and hopeless, when all you have to do is flex your faith muscle and sufficiently trust Me to come into the Stillness where I am waiting to nurture and instruct you.
In order for you to make spiritual progress, I need your sincere and dedicated effort. Will you not trust Me in this?
Even the feeblest attempt on your part shall be richly rewarded.
All I ask of you is to never give up in your attempts to seek Me in the Silence of your heart.”
