* Daniel: As you go into your stillness, allow the embrace of
eternity to displace the concerns of time and seep into those quiet places
of mind. Let your physical being merge with the energy of the universes of
which you are a part. Find peace in the quiet, that love may emerge as
your primary awareness.



Greetings, my friends, I am Daniel, guide and teacher, here with you this
evening to share a few thoughts regarding the situation facing your nation
at this time. My friends, although you did not speak of these things, we
are fully aware of your anxieties as you watch the unfolding of events, the
entrenchment, the sense of vindication on both sides, the potential for
more violence and for your very institutions to be shaken and challenged. My
friends, I am not here to provide forecasts, but I am here to encourage you
to take those steps that help you to find peace, to find hope, and, in so
doing, to be lighthouses, beacons of light to others struggling in the
stormy seas and in the dark of night.



It is the sense of being a victim that needs address. Too many times in
all walks of life, across many activities, people do not recognize their
potential and their power of perception. We have attempted to share with
you over the years that you have the power within you to change your
perspective of a situation, to experience gratitude in the face of
adversity, to see opportunity in a setback, to find multiple opportunities
to be of service in any calamity.



Part of the situation you find yourselves in as a nation and as a people of
Urantia, is a desire to be smaller than you are, to take the easy road of
shifting a challenging situation to another, to pass on a growth experience
and say, “Oh, I’ll catch it the next time it comes around,” to want it to
be the fault of another, and this is rampant at this time.



My friends, my dear students for whom I have great admiration, respect, and
in whom I delight, I wish to offer you a sturdy hand, that you may be
willing to look inward and understand how your attitudes and your belief
structures and your intolerances contribute to the social fabric. I
commend you for those many successful moments that each of you have when
you recognize an attitude that would benefit from adjustment, when you
mentally change an area of growly discouragement into an opportunity to
practice one of the fruits of the spirit, whichever fruit is needed most at
a particular time.



All of this, my friends, is predicated on your connection to spirit and
your willingness to spend that time sincerely seeking the Other, that you
may manifest to your fellow brothers and sisters what a love-dominated life
is like, that they may see in you, a person of good cheer, who sees the
positive, not from the perspective of denying reality, but in choosing to
embrace those opportunities provided by that reality.



Thank you for your willingness to listen to me this evening. There is one
other who desires an opportunity to address you.



* Abraham: When people are afraid or uncertain, it is at this point
that things are most volatile, for suspicions can arise and perceptions
often are clouded by the shadows of what you think is happening or may
happen instead of what is actually occurring or instead of thinking about
what you can bring to a situation. When you are uncertain, what is most
needed is connection to your spiritual center, or the recognition of that
love for you. Often, the predilections, however, are to push away, attack,
or to focus on what is wrong, rather than to become connected to what is
right, or to seek that connection.



As you engage within your own minds with your brothers and sisters, family,
friends, and strangers, recognize that what each most needs to hear, see,
or feel, is love - that they are loved, that you are loving, that you care,
that you embrace them, or acknowledge them as valuable. It is too easy to
point out what is wrong as a first measure, what is wrong with another or
with another’s thought instead of embracing your spirit coreand to engage
from that place, to enlighten in a different way, that seeks first to
assure someone that you care before providing correction.



Many on your world, our world, are experts at seeing what is wrong from
their perspective. Our encouragement to you is to look at how you can
engage first from a desire to connect rather than divide, to perhaps ask
someone you are having a difficult time with to pray with you about these
matters rather than exploring how they may be incorrect in their thinking. If
you can see it as a defense mechanism to disagree first, then perhaps it
will allow you to flip the switch, so to speak, to seek engaging in another
way, perhaps seeking the deeper question that a person really wants to ask,
wants to hear, or wants to explore, rather than the disagreement.



It’s easy to use mantras like "pro-life" and "pro-choice" and never truly
discuss the fine realities of valuing human life at all stages and valuing
that ability to allow people to make their decisions for themselves. Whether
it is gun control, healthcare, social security, or any number of issues, if
there is no core of commonality or connection to recognize that you value
each other first, then it is too easy to disagree.



Utilize this time period before you meet again to, perhaps, seek within and
ponder these questions and thoughts with our Father and then look at the
opportunities throughout your week - whether you are talking with someone,
watching the news, thinking about a subject - to think about what question
might be more important to ask or to talk about if you are seeking true
understanding with one another. Maybe it is not the surface platitudes or
mantras or rallying cries that are important nearly as much as looking to
the core of how true communication can occur when connected to spirit and
allowing that presence to cooperate with you in your efforts.



I am Abraham. I want to thank you for the opportunity to share with you, my
friends, and look forward to your dissemination of the thoughts from Daniel
and myself as you go forward in the week to come.
