MICHAEL – NOVEMBER 3, 2003
Greetings, my children. This is your Creator-Father, Michael.
As you have experienced the exquisite presence of your Mother
these past several weeks, I know that you are embracing a
fuller capacity to sense Her within you. Long has this planet
languished without feeling the embrace of its Mother. And
now, that time is at an end as your Mother opens Her arms
to embrace the planet fully so that in time all with know
Her, all will be conscious of Her and seek Her embrace for
their very own.
You do not yet understand what this fully means in your human
experience. Yet I say to you it is a most wondrous development
to behold as your Mother makes ready to embrace this world.
We have asked you if you are ready for change. You all have
assented to this. I ask you now again: Are you ready to be
changed? Are you ready to become more fully Father-conscious
as change comes about on Urantia.
I know you have all agreed to this and your hearts are open.
But the human will does resist as you have well seen and are
now more cooperatively understanding. But I would caution
you this evening that some of these changes will not be easy.
There are difficult and challenging circumstances that you
all will face. But we have said to you, you do not go through
this alone. We are here with you. It is only your momentary
awareness that separates you from us. Go within. Still your
minds. Ask for our safety to mesh within you a deeper awareness
of your connection to me and your Mother. (Pause)
As your minds are being impressed, focus your willingness
to change on allowing the disruption of distortion within
you to occur. As you breathe in, know that it is your Mother’s
breath of life that softly removes you from the intricately
designed thought forms that have influenced your thinking.
As She softens them, give Her your consent for the distortion
to be uprooted and removed. There is nothing to fear. Your
minds are being aligned in me. You are safe. (Pause)
When you come to me in this fashion, you are feeding on my
truth. Your mind will have a compounded awareness of increasingly
spiritual ideas and values that lead you directly to Father-consciousness.
As the clouds of confusion recede and eventually evaporate,
you will be inspired by the freedom you feel internally. As
we have said to you, you will feel a new sense of joy and
hope. This is what we ask you to shine from your inner being
outward to your brothers and sisters to attract them to you.
As the world undergoes a change, there are not very many
who understand who I am and who your Mother is. And it is
not so important that they understand who we are as it that
they see us alive in you by your love, by your understanding,
by your forgiveness, and by your compassion. The human heart
responds to truth much easier than the mind—the intellect—does.
Let your truth—that love essence of me—flow through
you and to help heal your brothers and sisters. Fill yourselves
with me. Ask to be expanded in the truth. All of the truth
you will ever wish to ingest is yours for the asking, my children.
Ask now and receive. (Pause)
One day you will be free from the scourge of evil that has
infected this world. As you journey deeper into this purification
that is underway within your cells, trust that this experience
is real and that you are shedding the old skin in favor of
the new light of life. Journey in the place of rebirth, come
to appreciate this journey of becoming. You are providing
a great service to the planetary reclamation by your conscious
choosing to undergo this now. And you are not going through
this alone. We are here. (Pause)
When you come to me you may be as small a child as you wish.
It is my delight to hold you in my arms to soothe your fears,
to bring you new hope and inspiration. The brave façade
you show to the world is not a requirement in coming to me.
I say to you: it is more important that you come to me in
the sincerity of your smallness, in the humility of your meekness,
and in the timidity of your defenselessness. This is what
I ask of you, my children. Come to me in this small state,
and your Mother and I will build you strong, noble, courageous,
vibrant. All you are leaving behind is fear. You get more
love and joy, beauty and truth than you could have ever imagined!
So I ask you again: are you willing to change? Are you willing
to go into this period of change wholeheartedly and unreservedly
with me at your side leading you into more opportunities for
service?
You have had deep impressionings within your mindal systems
these last several weeks. There are many seeds germinating
in your mind now. Let the soil of your consciousness system
rest. Let the seeds be safely enmeshed in your Mother deftly
growing new thought streams within you that will impinge in
your awareness when the time is ripe. I pause now to entertain
your questions. But not too many questions as the experience
tonight is still moving deeply within your minds.
Student: Michael, I have an 18-month old granddaughter and
I watch her mother take care of all of her needs. I’m
wondering if that’s what you meant said to become as
little children? What are the limits? What am I supposed to
do? What are you supposed to do?
Michael: I am your Father. I respond to your needs. If you
were to imagine yourself as a rebellious 17-year old adolescent,
who is ready to ignore his father’s wisdom and experience
and to go out into the world on his own to make his own mistakes
and to stumble and fall over the errors of an immature mind
without listening to his father’s wisdom, do you think
that you would be able to receive the love and guidance that
was available to you? (No, I wouldn’t!)
And so if you were to imagine yourself as a 8-year old boy
who enjoyed being with his father and considered the time
spent together as a precious gift because you felt loved and
cared for, would you be willing to listen to your father and
come to him more readily?
Student: Most definitely, I would.
Michael: And if you were to imagine yourself as a helpless
baby that could not do anything on his own, would you then
not imagine yourself as lying these exquisitely wonderful
and loving arms that held you close and provided for your
every need? Would you not then know that you were safe?
Student: Yes, safe and loved.
Michael: And so, my son, it is a matter of your perception.
Do you wish to be the baby, the child, the adolescent? The
choice is up to you. How you perceive yourself in relationship
to me is the factor of what you will receive from me. The
more you come to me in humility and smallness in asking me
to help you to fulfill your needs and to help you understand
life, the more I can give to you. It is this simple.
Student: Thank you, Michael. I have one other question. I
have friends who are ill, is there some way I can give them
your peace, or is it only something that you can do?
Michael: You have access to my peace. You can, through your
prayers, ask for my peace to be directed into another individual.
Perhaps this individual has no knowledge of my peace and yet
there is a need for this peace. You who have experienced it
and value it and have direct access to this, could you not
then ask for my peace to be instilled into this other person?
How much peace will be instilled, and when will this person
sense this peace? You will not know. But do not hold back
in administering my peace into this individual because you
know not of this. Your prayers are important for they begin
weave new thoughts into a person who may eventually sense
that stirring of spirit within them to awaken consciously
to the call of truth. This is what you can do to bring my
peace into them.
Student: Thank you, Michael.
Michael: And be in my peace, my son.
Student: Thank you. I am.
Student: I’d like to thank you for the inspiration.
Breathing it to me, you and Mother have got inside me and
taken me to the very edge of self-control, and then helping
me discover a whole world of feeling. I’m finding it’s
all feeling—it’s nervousness and anxiety and fears
all through the day. Anger—I have to watch my temper
all of a sudden. I found a great fear of neediness. Because
my whole life, it always seemed that freedom began at the
very edge of neediness. The more I could provide for everything
for myself then beyond that was freedom. And so now I am finding
a fear of needing you. But I’m also glimpsing that this
is OK because it is you. I hope to find a way of fully accepting
this—even glorious to need you. Thank you for your patience.
Michael: J, my son, it is not patience that I show you in
my desire to help you overcome your raw human nature. It is
sheer unabashed love. There is no time expiration on it! It
just is there. You have well described the distinction and
condition between self-control and aligning your will with
the Father. Why is it acceptable to be needful of your Spirit
Father? Why is it acceptable to want to be cared for? Ask
yourself these questions in the coming days. These are the
questions your Father Fragment longs for you to ask.so he
can minister to you in innumerable ways in your mind as to
the delightful ideas that you will see as to why you will
enjoy being needful of us.
The precipice you sense may feel like a sharp jagged. But
as you step off the ledge into the unknown experience of needing
me, do you think it will be a hard sharp drop? Or perhaps
you will walk on a buoyant bubble of light and be uplifted
and supported in a way you have yet to experience. Are you
willing to go into this inquiry now in sensing a new level
of life in the spirit?
Student: I’ll answer just between you and I, Michael,
in the days to come. Thank you .
Michael: My peace is upon you, my son.
Student: Father, I have no questions for you. I just want
to express my thanks for your love—your beautiful, beautiful,
beautiful love. Thank you.
Michael: Thank you for your love, R my son. It is a precious
gift that I cherish.
Student: Michael, as I was in stillness and prayer the other
day I was thinking about resistance to the Father’s
will and oneness with God and truth. I was thinking about
what you said when you were on this planet about how we can
do greater works than even you. That we can claim and proclaim
our oneness with you and the Father in Paradise. I looked
at that and said: why am I resistant to that? Why do I deny
myself my higher good? I know that my life would increase
in fullness and expansiveness and wealth and love, truth and
beauty. Why do I resist that? So I claimed what you have proclaimed
for all of us so many years ago. But it is quite a challenge
and I have been through a roller coaster of emotions.
When I entered today I was full of unhappiness that is hard
to rise above. I know when you were on this planet you experienced
unhappiness and disappointment deeply. But you were able to
see the truth beyond that. I wish to see that as well—to
see as you see. Because our minds are one and our hearts are
one.
Michael: Yes, D, they are one. You are coming into that unity
of oneness with me. To fully embrace it you must see as I
have seen and to see as your Father sees. The human condition
contains within it a wide range of experience, ranging from
the despairing desolation of losing one’s life to the
heights of joy in claiming your sonship with the Father. Are
you willing to embrace the full range of the human condition
and to love each end of the spectrum as I have loved and as
our Father loves?
Student: I will try. I will try.
Student: I have a general problem. On the one hand I am getting
stronger all of the time, but amazingly I have no feeling
of you. Emotionally I agree with what is being said and I
ask and ask and nothing seems to be happening.
Michael: R my son, as you become increasingly strengthened
in faith, there are certain places within your body where
you sense me that will eventually yield into that body-recognition
of me in you. Can you allow the time of healing continue to
run its course of action within you?
Student: Yes, I’m learning patience.
Michael: And what do you think of that word—patience—how
long is patience?
Student: It’s a word that signifies a reality that
has not been part of my life. This affliction has forced me
to be patient. I see it as a gift in a way. I see it as a
learning opportunity.
Michael: So in testifying what you just said to me, what
makes you feel that things are not working in you?
Student: I know things are working, I’m just concerned
that I don’t feel anything. That’s the paradox.
I’m getting stronger but I don’t feel anything
from the reading of the transcripts…what that is.
Michael: There is a qualitative level of healing—a
threshold you would call it—that has not been reached
yet within the blending of your sentient being and your physical
body. As your recovery in spirit progresses, my reality will
more pronouncedly be experienced in you. I am there; you have
knowledge of me. I ask you to continue to love: to love others
and to love me. Focus less on your physical condition, and
even though you are excited about the changes that are occurring,
I say to you this is not as important to me as the changes
occurring in your soul; your capacity to trust me, your willingness
to love me and your brethren more. In focusing on this more
in your daily living will you reach that threshold in your
healing that will open new doors of experience in feeling
of me and my love for you. Do you understand, my son?
Student: Oh yes, I think I have to be patient.
Michael: It is more than being patient. It is also focusing
on your desire to love and to trust me.
Student: Also, to love and trust other people in my life.
Michael: I ask you to focus less on what is experienced in
your physical body now as you improve in strength, and to
be more amenable to being of service to others and loving
them. That will open the door and heighten your threshold
to experience me. Do you understand? You have journeyed well,
my son. My peace is ever-abiding in you. My comfort will give
you the patience that you need; my inspiration of my life
to give you the compelling desire to serve with love and devotion.
Student: Someone in the complex has advanced Parkinson’s
syndrome. He doesn’t talk very much. I’m wondering
if I should sit with him even though we don’t speak
much.
Michael: As a person who has experienced the same condition
you can certainly empathize with what he is going through,
can you not? (Yes)
Michael: And in sitting with him, could you not just open
your heart and exude your compassion and understanding to
him? (Oh yes!) And would that not be more eloquent than any
words you could speak?
Student: I’m excited at the prospect of doing this.
Michael: It is very interesting to see how you in your human
lives have always felt that communication was through verbal
means, but truly you say more with the unspoken attitude towards
your brethren. Beam your love, your understanding, your compassion,
your empathy to this individual. Let it flow freely. Ask for
me to flood that into you as you sit with this individual.
Student: I look forward to it.
Michael: Then ask yourself if you are still unable to sense
me! After you open your heart to receive my love to flow into
this other person, then ask yourself whether or not you sense
me. (Thank you.)
Student: Dear Michael, please teach me the next step in fatherly
love that seems so important in this world for my family.
Michael: Go within. Ask for the deeply embedded pockets of
judgment to be softened and to yield to the greater truth
of divine wisdom and love. Invite your Mother into those deeply
embedded places that you have no knowledge of where this judgment
is residing. Ask her to open the floodgates as it were for
the judgment to be turned to wisdom, understanding, mercy
and forgiveness. Let yourself experience through your daily
life and interactions the release of the judgment and the
concomitant influx of the higher spiritual values. You will
find this to be one of your most valuable lessons and add
increasingly to your capacity to charm. (Pause)
As my peace settles into you now, be assured that the Father’s
love will indeed prevail within you. You have a great capacity
to understand and to emote. Keep going. Let this time of striving
be a joyful exhilarating time in your human experience. You
are only becoming more serviceable to me and your Mother when
you do this. Have you any other questions now?
Student: That was wonderful. Thank you.
Michael: My sons, roll up your spiritual shirt sleeves. You
are going into the field; the field of change where there
are many lost and confused souls. As we harvest these souls
together and show them the sweetness of the Father’s
love, the joyfulness and the liberty in following the Father’s
way, know that my strength, my enthusiasm, my devotion will
pour through you and give you an unbridled capacity to serve
with such fervor, devotion and delight that this will be one
of the most enjoyable in all of your universe career. You
will remember these rugged times on Urantia with such fond
recollection and yearning because the depths of human misery
that you will be able to help a person step out of will be
so compelling and a testament to the grandness of the Father’s
loving plans you will be awestruck by its beauty. So let us
go into the fields together, you and I. Let us change this
world—my world—my jewel in all of Nebadon. Make
this my home again. Good evening.
