Teacher: Thought Adjuster.
Subject: “A Slow Process.”
Message received by Oscar.
Thought Adjuster: “At times you see life as a very slow process and you consider your advancement as inadequate. Only mortals feel this urgency to reach their goals before their time runs out. You have achieved many things during these last years, but even if your reaching the next level of understanding takes you a million years this will not put you at a disadvantage in the eyes of your Father. Time is irrelevant in eternity and this ‘long’ while you spend in this material world is but a blink of the eye in your eternal life.
“You are starting to realize that deep and true changes take time. You can decide one day to overcome a weakness of character or a materialistic tendency, but you will have to decide this over and over again until this truth becomes a permanent part of your being. Yes, day after day and year after year you will have to confirm for yourself and your Thought Adjuster that your choice is definitive. It is a progressive training in which you slowly learn to act like God and become increasingly perfect.
“The good news is that when comes the day in which you have completely submitted your will to the divine will, you will know it consciously and without reservations. You would have achieved in yourself that certainty that will give you the confidence to go to the most remote corners of creation knowing that nothing will ever take you away from your path. You would have achieved the practical knowledge of the will of God that will allow you to act everywhere with true freedom. It will be then when you will hear your Thought Adjuster announce to the entire creation that you have made the supreme decision and you and God will become one.
“Many don’t like the term ‘submit’ when talking about free will. Submit seems to indicate surrendering your capacity to choose and letting another make your decisions. Nothing can be farther from the truth. When we talk about submitting your will we suggest the idea of having your will completely under your control. You will have absolute sovereignty over your decisions and actions — something that you don’t yet possess, because you often take a path that, after a moment’s reflection, you never would have taken. Besides that sovereignty gained through experience you would have reached a level of understanding of divinity that will allow you to always make the best decision, therefore choosing as your Father would choose in the same situation. This represents true freedom, the highest freedom to which any personality can aspire.
“It will be more productive for you to feel gratitude for the lessons that life offers and for the opportunity to be able to choose the best path, thousands of times, because that is precisely what you need to do to achieve eternal life.”

Teacher: Hezekiah.
Subject: “The Stages of Forgiveness.”
Message received by Valdir Soares.
Hezekiah: “Magic does not exist. Things do not happen, appear or disappear by enchantment. Behind every phenomenon, even miracles, there always is an agent, personal or impersonal, material or spiritual, God, angel or human, but there is an agent — even if hidden to human eyes. In the same way, forgiveness does not happen magically. Forgiveness happens when an offense has been committed and the offended is willing to forgive. Forgiveness is a process and it is all about you. Yes, the offender and the offense are the only reasons for forgiveness. The one who goes through the process and its stages is you.
“The Prompt for Forgiveness. When someone does something hurtful against you, you always end up injured in some way — be it emotionally, physically, or financially — it always causes an injury. After the realization of injury, two possibilities may prompt you to either internalize the injury, holding the offender accountable to you, or to forgive, to let go of any right to revenge or retribution for the injury caused. The prompt for forgiveness will happen for the great majority of people, sooner or later. However, unfortunately some people who have cauterized their conscience will not feel the need for forgiveness. They will carry the injury indefinitely.
“The Decision to Forgive. If you missed the first step, the prompt for forgiveness, you will never get to the remaining ones. Next, it is necessary to take the important decision to forgive. That is mainly a personal, internal, mental and spiritual decision. You resolve to not hold accountable before you the person who injured you. He or she may have to deal with the law and justice for his or her offense, but not with you. A forgiving decision may happen many times during your lifespan, but each one is of crucial importance, not for the offender, but for you.
“The Feeling of Forgiveness. Feelings are emotional reactions to meanings. If a thing means bad, you feel bad, if it means good, you feel good. As mentioned before, the process of forgiveness starts and finishes with you. The feeling of forgiveness may at first not be clear, because perhaps the feeling of being hurt by the offender may still be fresh. However, in time when you confirm in your heart the forgiveness given, the healing of the hurt will translate itself into a feeling of sweet peace. That is when you make your peace with that particular offender, the offense and the injury.
“So, my countryman (because we are from the same planet) forgiveness is a process which does not happen immediately. It goes through a development from realization to finally experience the feeling of forgiveness. The crucial moment for forgiveness is the decision to forgive. The feeling is an eventual consequence of the fact of your having forgiven. Indeed, forgiveness is not to forget the offense. Instead it is to make a firm and unforgettable memory that you have, in fact, forgiven it. I am Hezekiah. I, in my life on Urantia, had to learn to forgive and went through this process many times. Peace!”

Teacher: The Beloved One.
Subject: “The True Purpose of Life.”
Message received by Lytske.
The Beloved One: “So very few humans live up to the faith they possess and whilst they are truly capable of practicing their faith. It is indeed correct that when Jesus walked this earth and miracles happened, it was their faith which made them whole.
“Yet the secret is that most of them went back to their former life-styles, and so the illnesses of which they were healed; manifested themselves again. Self-healing is innate when you allow the joy of spirit to dominate in your life, including behavior and with the right intake of wholesome foods.
“Your bodily temple houses your eternal spirit and needs proper nutrition and included here are fresh air and sunshine. The daily intake of chemicals and other poisons are not the answer.
“For a moment, think about how far this precious planet has been compromised and poisoned at the hands of a greedy few. The saturation point is coming dangerously close with many people dying from unnecessary diseases of mind and body caused by all this pollution. When they get sick, they are made sicker still by more chemicals, which their immune systems are not equipped to handle.
“The Creator gave you healing sunshine, pure air and herbs, as well as the nourishing fruits of waters, fields and trees.
“Precious minds poison themselves with nefarious schemes of how to get rich with nary a thought about the effect on their brothers and sisters. This all needs to be stated so humankind may learn where they are erring.
“The Creator meant for you all to be caretakers of this beautiful garden planet, and his sacred intent will be manifested in times to come. Meanwhile humanity is reaping a terrible harvest of unnecessary diseases of body, mind and spirit.
“The time has come for humanity to wake up to the true purpose in life — to find their Fragment from God within their individual selves which is given them to aid them on their way to their eternal Home.
“Meanwhile they are to grow and practice their faith-trust in his unconditional love, learning to love their selves and bringing forth the fruits of the spirit in loving service.”

Teacher: Urantia, (Gaia, Mother Earth or Planetary Supreme).
Subject: “Give me Peace and I Will Give You Peace in Return.”
Received by Valdir Soares.
Gaia: “I am Gaia, the God the Supreme’s planetary deity-focalization for Urantia. I am the rendezvous of all bona fide life energy on this sphere. I absorb all good and bad experiences; the former immediately, the latter, after they have been purged of their inconsistencies through spiritual resolution. I synthesize these experiences and give back to you the average balance in accordance with your present spiritual status. If you give me peace, I give you peace in return. The more peace is given, the better the evolution of peace will manifest on Urantia. You now need much Peace, so give me Peace.
“Give me Peace by Wishing for Peace. Thinking of peace is good, but not enough. In order for me to process your thinking, it must be more than an intellectual observation. It needs to come from your will. It needs for you to desire the peace because a sincere desire can bring effective action and start the circuit of real decisions motivated by Beauty. Peace is related to Beauty because peace is harmony, which is the core of all that is beautiful. Don’t be a theoretical expert for peace. Be an experiential one, longing for peace from within, from your very heart.
“Give me Peace by Feeling Peace. Emotions may carry spiritual energy if they spring from love, truth and beauty. So, if yours were born from these, I can absorb your emotions. Do not only wish peace in your heart but enjoy peace, which is proportional to the degree of harmonization you have in your personal life. It is not only harmonization at the intellectual level, but rather the moral, ethical and spiritual levels that count towards a plus-experience of peace in your life. Harmonize your life with what you know of the will of God and you will increasingly feel peace in your life.
“Give me Peace by Practicing Peace. So far, by wishing and feeling, peace is about you and how I can process it for my experiential growth and give it back as a racial gain. The personal dimension is important, but it is in the social one of practicing peace that it makes the greatest difference. Practice peace by renouncing violence, abuse, prejudice, and by advocating peace in all human relationships. Start with your family relations, extend it to professional, community, national and global relations. Be a beacon for peace. Listen to what your Jesus taught: ‘Blessed are the peacemakers!’
“Therefore, my child, peace will not happen by magic. It will be a consequence of what you have nurtured as the human race on Urantia. In fact, if peace now fails to lodge on this planet, you are responsible for such failure. You have all spiritual help available, if you would only make use of it to expedite your spirituality as a race. Let me help you. Give me more bona fide goodwill towards peace and I will assist you in making peace a reality on Urantia. I am Urantia, Gaia, your Mother Earth. Give me Peace!”

Teacher: Thought Adjuster.
Subject: “View Yourself as a Winner.”
Message received by Anyas.
“The doing of the will of God is nothing more or less than an exhibition of creature willingness to share the inner life with God . . .” [The Urantia Papers 1221:02]
Thought Adjuster: “As you reflect upon your desire to be the best you can be at any given moment, the thought came to your mind that your Heavenly Father is a God of many chances. Indeed, such is the case and it could not be otherwise due to the fact that human beings are evolutionary beings. You have not been created perfect, but are meant to ‘get there’ through the process of experience gathering.
“You learn through trial and error. Errors are powerful deterrents and stern disciplinarians. They can be turned to your advantage in the same manner you will refrain from touching a hot stove top after being burnt just once and suffering from painful blisters.
“On the spiritual level, you do not always learn the first time and life will keep presenting you multiple opportunities to eventually master its curriculum. If you are filled with goodwill and good intentions, be assured that you will get it right. Each failed attempt will keep you humble and become a new motivator to try again until you succeed, just as a toddler eager to learn to walk, stubbornly gets back up after each fall, thus strengthening his wobbly legs.
“What matters is that you never give up and call upon Me to strengthen your resolve whenever it is flickering. I believe in you. I trust you more than you trust yourself. What does it tell you? View yourself as a winner — not a loser. You never lose if you gain wisdom from your apparent shortcomings. This is the beauty of it. ‘Thank you, God, for the good that will come out of them.’ By switching to a mode of gratitude, you are assigning value to these experiences. You are transmuting them into celestial currencies, rather than tossing them away as expendable and embarrassing.”
