Paper 127
The Adolescent Years
127:0.1 (1395.1) AS JESUS entered upon his adolescent years, he found himself the head and sole support of a large family. Within a few years after his father’s death all their property was gone. As time passed, he became increasingly conscious of his pre-existence; at the same time he began more fully to realize that he was present on earth and in the flesh for the express purpose of revealing his Paradise Father to the children of men.
127:0.2 (1395.2) No adolescent youth who has lived or ever will live on this world or any other world has had or ever will have more weighty problems to resolve or more intricate difficulties to untangle. No youth of Urantia will ever be called upon to pass through more testing conflicts or more trying situations than Jesus himself endured during those strenuous years from fifteen to twenty.
127:0.3 (1395.3) Having thus tasted the actual experience of living these adolescent years on a world beset by evil and distraught by sin, the Son of Man became possessed of full knowledge about the life experience of the youth of all the realms of Nebadon, and thus forever he became the understanding refuge for the distressed and perplexed adolescents of all ages and on all worlds throughout the local universe.
127:0.4 (1395.4) Slowly, but certainly and by actual experience, this divine Son is earning the right to become sovereign of his universe, the unquestioned and supreme ruler of all created intelligences on all local universe worlds, the understanding refuge of the beings of all ages and of all degrees of personal endowment and experience.

132:4.4 As might have been expected, such a versatile and aggressive man could not thus function for six months in the world’s metropolis without being approached by numerous persons who desired to secure his services in connection with some business or, more often, for some project of teaching, social reform, or religious movement. More than a dozen such proffers were made, and he utilized each one as an opportunity for imparting some thought of spiritual ennoblement by well-chosen words or by some obliging service. Jesus was very fond of doing things – even littlethings – for all sorts of people.
Little Things
Up before the sun today
Today we’ll play, it’s Saturday!
Rain and snow may come our way
But that won’t stop the plans we’ve made.
Today it’s possible I’ll go mad
With all the upsets we have had.
Basketball takes center stage,
But soon we’ve turned another page.
What today seems so important
Is not much – may be discordant
To the song we sing through life.
We must tune out what does divide.
Turning to the words we say
The truth can speak love every day.
You have a skill within that shows.
So follow It, and where It goes.
Patience often works out well.
God’s within us all, pray tell
Let His plan for you work out.
Try to see what God’s about.
Anticipate the very best.
Your track is right when you can rest.
Things will work out as they should.
May God’s love be understood.
Thank You, Father, the day is young.
And yes, Your universe is far-flung.
You made me then put Yourself
Within me, I am then Your elf.
THE THREE PERSONS OF DEITY
Notwithstanding there is only Deity, there are three positive and divine personalization of Deity. Regarding the endowment of man with the divine Adjusters,the Father said :"Let us make mortal man in our own image. "Repeatedly throughout the urantian writings there occurs this reference to the acts and doings of plural Deity, clearly showing recognition of the existence and working of the three source and centers.
