Teacher: Ophelius.
Subject: “The I AM Essence – Next Steps.”
Message received by Chris Maurus.
Teacher Ophelius: “You Students on the path may have been asking yourselves, ‘What is next for me?’ ‘How shall I grow more spiritually?’ ‘What other practice shall I follow that will lead me to greater spiritual awareness?’ ‘How can I really know the Will of the Universal Father?’ ‘How may I be of service?’ If you are asking these types of questions, dear ones, this means that you are hungry and that spirit gravity has a hold of you. These are positive signs of growth, in and of themselves, and it is an indication that you are indeed ready for the next phase of your spirit-led life. You have signaled your readiness to change and that you are open to new opportunities. This is the seedbed for transformation, my friends, and it may be that your days of seeking and sitting at the feet of others have come to an end?
“The next step for some may be that you need to change some of your routines that prevent you from exploring a deeper relationship with Spirit? If growth is important to you, then preparing the soil of your seedbed is vital to taking that next step toward a more spirit-led life. Of whom are you asking these hungry questions? Do you speak them to the wind or are you developing a more intimate relationship with your Indwelling Spirit, your Thought Adjuster (TA)? Since your God Fragment is your spiritual coordinator and guide through all phases of spiritual development, it would be beneficial that you begin and sustain a more intimate contact with this Divine Councilor as you would a true soul-mate?
“When you rise each morning, and retire each evening, where are your thoughts? Where are they when you wake in the middle of the night? Are they on material matters — world events; work related worries; dysfunctional relationships, or are they focused on these hungry questions and your connection with your TA? Like any relationship of value, you must invest time; take interest in the deeper development of that relationship and strive for coherence — wanting to give the very best of yourself — your loving nature; your attention; your loyalty and friendship to the other as a reflection of your own desire to be loved, nurtured, and spiritually attuned.
“Do you pray? What is it that really happens when you pray sincerely? You are reaching out with your individualized consciousness and connecting to the Greater Consciousness of the Universal Father, for which your consciousness is a part? Your TA is the conduit of this channel to the Greater Consciousness of the Creator Father. Is it possible to leave this connection open at all times? How does one ‘pray without ceasing?’ To pray continually means you have opened this channel to the Greater Consciousness of the Creator and you openly share your intimate thoughts, hopes, desires, fears and vulnerabilities with your TA — that part of the Creator Father that is focused in you. The ‘I AM Essence’ begins to flow bi-directionally providing constant feedback. This can be developed, my dear Students on the path, and you can have answers to the hungry questions when you have continual access (bi-directional flow) to this greater consciousness of the Universal Father through a more intimate relationship with your TA.
“Do you really want to know and do the Father’s Will? Develop this open channel to the Greater Consciousness and design a ‘wedge’ to keep it open whenever possible. How do you do this? Each of you are unique and each is a co-creator. I challenge you to design your own ‘wedge’ to keep this door open — a reminder of your constant connection to the Greater Consciousness — Father via TA. Do this diligently for two weeks, my dear friends, and you shall, without doubt begin to notice this ‘I AM Essence’ (bi-directional flow) is present and active in your consciousness — leading you to the answers of those important hungry questions.
“Peace to you,
“The Circle of Seven.”
Receiver’s note: What the Teachers are challenging us with is to create a ‘reminder’ of our own design that brings our attention to our relationship with our TA in any given moment. What would you do to remind yourself of an important appointment? Your appointment is any given moment when you are not distracted by material life. Even watching a movie, you can be sharing your thought impressions with your TA and extracting the meanings and values and receiving bi-directional flow. Such can be done during a conversation with a friend or co-worker. Idle moments are given. This message seemed to be a ‘theme’ of great importance for the Teachers at this time. I’m designing my ‘wedge’ today and will take up the challenge. Will you?

Teacher: The Beloved One.
Subject: “A Lesson on Hidden Things.”
Message received by Lytske.
The Beloved One: “There are many things in life that are hidden. They never see the light of day and yet they form an intricate part of everyday life; such as the undercurrents of emotions. Also, it might perhaps be of interest to you, that there is absolutely nothing hidden from The Almighty Creator and us Thought Adjusters, who come from this highest Spirit Source. We have come to indwell all humans as the still small Voices to help and Guide you all as individual reflections of God. The one fact you need to know is that I shall endeavor to impart to you that, which is needed for your understanding in order for you to gain the necessary wisdom during life’s experiences.
“Your capacity to understand the mysteries of God are as yet so miniscule that it is a great joy and wonder for the celestials to see, how admirably well so many of you cope, even in the direst of circumstances. Oh, I well know all the superstitious beliefs which are in place as coping mechanisms, but this should not worry you as these will all fall away as they were serving as scaffolding to create a foundation of faith.
“Once the greater truth becomes known, all the old outmoded, superstitious and erroneous belief systems shall pass away to gradually make room for more enlightened truth. Everyone holds only a tiny part of truth in their being according to their understanding and per the belief systems you grew up with. Many mortals believe that theirs is the only truth and they are comfortable with that and as long as it gives them the needed soul peace, they do well on their own.
“Everyone has their own time of awakening and readiness to accept. There is also the matter of continuing revelation during which some of the hidden things are being revealed, especially when one seeks to know. This can happen through a casual conversation with someone or when you allow me to speak through you. As a matter of fact, this is going on all the time, when humans allow their God within to have a voice, which can be especially helpful in trying circumstances.
“Remember that I am apprised of each mortal as well as being apprised of you, as I have access to all the other Sparks of God. There is no time or distance between our communications. Everything is instantaneous and should it be necessary for you to speak comforting words to someone, these are available from Me, while you might think, 'where did these words come from?'
“When you are willing to be used, you shall be used and circumstances and opportunities will be provided to teach you. It might interest you to know, that ego does not play a role in the revealing of mysteries which are coming to light. This is important to remember. You are only an instrument through which the Almighty One desires to be revealed.
“The closer you walk with me, the better will you be able to discern the soul-needs of another, and be able with a few words to offer insight or assistance. This is walking in the light and love of God to help heal others as you yourself are also being healed.”

Teacher: Prolotheos.
Subject: “Respect Free Will.”
Message Received by Valdir Soares.
Prolotheos: “Free will is a God-given attribute which is at the basis of Humanity. Suffice to say that free will is that bestowal from the Father that brings humans out from the exclusive animal kingdom on every planet where life is implanted. Free will is so important that after this unique bestowal, the Life Carriers are prohibited from directly interfering with the newborn will creatures. Right there and then, their long work on a planet is finished. If the Father and His Associate Authorities in the universes treat free will with such respect, wouldn’t you do the same? Respect free will!
“Respect Free Will by Acknowledging its Reality. Will is a universe reality. It starts with God and it is a bestowal from the Father upon countless creatures in diverse manners. The main characteristic of will is consciousness. Animals have the determination of doing things, but not the consciousness of it. On Urantia, the Father bestowed upon our ancestors human will, which is absolutely free of interference at its origin, but limited in its results, because we are limited in power. However, in spiritual matters, free will is absolutely sovereign, including its results. We are free to follow God or to not follow Him.
“Respect Free Will by Acknowledging its Function. Conscious actions are the results of free will. Free will allows liberty for human choices. It has no antecedents: it starts with you and it is done by you. By will you can act, interact and react. By will you can do good or evil, expressing love or hatred. That you can wish and do evil (the morally reproachable) is proof of your freedom. We are free to will and execute, but, except in spiritual matters, we cannot guarantee its persistence, because above human will there is the absolute and sovereign will of God.
“Respect Free Will by Acknowledging its Importance. It is important because is a personal bestowal from the Father, it makes us personal beings, and it is part of the ‘image of God,’ But, above all, our free will reveals God’s desire to have a voluntary relationship with us, even from the Creator to His low human creatures. Free will allows us to really know God if we choose. Power and freedom of choice are, with no shadow of a doubt, what God most values in us and what most pleases Him when we freely consecrate it to Him.
“Besides, my pupil, you can show respect for free will, not only by valuing your own but also by valuing other people’s free will. You may argue with people, but respect their will letting them choose by themselves, not manipulating it, not crushing it, not ridiculing it. Accordingly, you may and should combat, even prevent the evil that might come from a bad decision, but not the liberty of anyone making a bad decision. Remember: it is mostly by doing good that we overcome evil, not returning evil for evil.
“I am Prolotheos, your teacher and tutor on High. Blessings!”

Teacher: Thought Adjuster.
Subject: “Who Are You?”
Message received by Anyas.
Thought Adjuster: “Civilized nations issue each of their citizen with an ID — an Identification Card that contains his or her personal data: date of birth, race, sex, place of residence, height, hair and eye color. Mostly, those are external ‘identifiers.’ Your unique fingerprints are also part of your personal data. Yet, such data mostly pertains to your human vehicle and helps differentiate it from others, just like the model of your car, its color and its registration plate make it easier for you to find it in a crowded parking lot.
“Yet, you are much more than the color of your skin, your citizenship, your family status and your occupation. This layer of your being is not sufficient to get to KNOW you.
“Who Are You? You are like a set of those Russian dolls that fit snugly into one another. What I mean by that is that there are many more layers to your being than the one that meets the eye. What about your personality? What about your likes and dislikes? What about your IQ? These are part of the substance of your being and play a major part in your human associations. You associate with those you feel compatible with as you come to identify common or complementary denominators in these personalities or lives’ outlooks.
“Is it all that you are? Assuredly not. There are still finer layers to who you are. Tucked at the core of your being is your spirit — your most precious part and yet a part that many fail to both acknowledge and nurture.
“Dear ones, wouldn’t you like to know more about yourself? Wouldn’t you like to solve the mystery of your being? The journey of self-discovery is a lengthy one that is only possible if you take the time to go within and ponder these as yet unanswered questions about yourself. What part of you is the constant in your being? This is who you are — the unchanging part of you, your very core. You are so much more than your identity. Stop defining yourself with restrictive labels. The more you come from your heart when you share about yourself, the more you truly express who you are, the essence of your being. Do not live on the surface of yourself! Rather, dive deeply within in order to uncover who you truly are.”

Teacher: Ophelius.
Subject: “Give these Lost Ones a Moment of Lucid Clarity.”
Message received by Chris Maurus.
Teacher Ophelius: “Today, my dear students on the path, we have a serious situation developing on your world which needs your attention. It would be most helpful if all of you would seriously consider connecting with your Indwelling Father Fragments and pray with the utmost sincerity for peace. You, my friends, can make a difference because you are more powerful than you know when in this way you are intimately connected to your Thought Adjusters. When you are consciously connected and in dialog with your TA, you have the ear of the Creator Father. You are His precious child and he delights to know that you want His attention — to ask Him for what is True, Beautiful, and Good — for the greater good of Urantia.
“Please, join me now and let us connect with the Presence of the Universal Father on Paradise though our Father Fragments:
“My Beloved Indwelling — let us be of one mind and one heart. Let my thoughts merge into your thoughts. Bring me into the Holy Presence of the Father. I clear my mind of all matters of this world and connect with you now. Fill me with your peace, Father — fill me with your unconditional love. Wash me in the light of your presence now, Father. I am your child, and I wish to have this intimate time alone with you to share my thoughts, my desires, and offer up my prayers for a better world — a world at peace.
“Father, there are many dangerous and ugly things in the hearts of those who do not know you, Father — they are lost and need your unconditional love to fill their hearts and minds so that they can awaken to love and to the knowing that all people on this world are indwelled by your Spirit, Father, and all deserve to live and experience love, peace, joy, and to follow their hearts. Father, I ask you to find all these lost children who have murder in their minds — to harm, to do great damage and to draw this world into war — I ask that you find each one, no matter to what side of right or wrong they think they belong, and fill them with your Holy Presence. Fill every cell in their bodies with this unconditional love and let them taste the sweetness of what all your children feel that know and love you.
“This is all that we ask of you today, Father, that the hearts of these lost ones would be filled with love, even for a moment, and that they might consider what it feels like to be in their brother’s shoes — to see the world with new eyes and to believe in something greater than themselves.
“Father, I believe this is Your Will for Urantia, that all would come to know you in their hearts and begin to co-creatively express Your Will and make this world a beautiful place of peace where all people can live and work and play together knowing they all share this divine fragment of your Indwelling within them. Father, please tap on the door of the heart now in this moment and give these lost ones a lucid moment of clarity that they may see a greater reality — that they belong to the family of humanity and that all children, present and future, are their own to care for.
“Students: Please picture in your mind’s eye, one of these lost ones and see the light of the Father filling their hearts now. See the expression on their faces change from hatred and confusion to astonishment as they are seized by their hearts and filled with unconditional love. See their grey stone cold hearts change into beating vibrant love filled hearts — red with the shared blood of humanity. See them drop to their knees asking for guidance and forgiveness and see them speak the words that they would do what is right and that they would stop, at any cost, those things that they have set in motion to bring harm to others.
“If this is Your Will, Father, let it be so. And so it is!
“Peace to all of you,
“The Circle of Seven.”
