There's is a text in the Urantia book that nothing stands out more in Jesus’ ministry than his love for
people, wherever he went. This was surely the secret of his
success in reaching the hearts of his fellows.
Jesus truly loved people — just common folks [Paper 127: .7, page
1 99.6].
So we need to love our fellows as Jesus Christ Michael did,
Love your neighbour as yourself; bear a grudge against no man. Whatsoever you hate do to no man. Love your brother, for the Lord has said: ‘I will love my children freely.’

Love is the greatest of all spirit realities. Truth is a liberating revelation, but love is the supreme relationship

If you love people, they will draw near you - you will have no difficulty in winning them.

Religion is teaching friendship with God-Father. after all friendship is the delight relationship between personalities!

Jesus had many friends [as well as "enemies"] , and that's because he showed himself friendly, he was seeking to love men in every moment in his divine ministry, knowing of their problems by understanding them deeply and offering solutions according to spirit and truth.

And we, Jesus-followers and Children of the Most High, we should be dedicated to doing of our Father's will and service to all the brotherhood of men. we should be friendly and kind, but seemingly not nice.

I'm not here to fulfill your material desires but to help you better understand God and his messengers as much as I have capacity to understand myself, and to get you closer to the Infinite Light of God. - This is what a true friend means : to spiritually serve his fellows in the flesh into the spiritual brotherhood of The Kingdom of Heaven, the Cosmic Family.

Family, love, relationships, friendships; these are all part of the essence of life and light - the life in reality, the kingdom.

I love you and wish you would be more open toward your neighbors and share what you have for their own good.

In the end it is goodwill that prevails any evil there is!

Talk to me, let's serve our Humanity together!

"A Prayer for a Pure Heart"

Heavenly Father, As the sun rises, so does my soul in praise to You. You are the Light that guides my path, the Strength that sustains me, and the Love that purifies my heart. Today, I surrender my thoughts, my actions, and my desires to You. Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.

Guard my eyes that they may see only what is good. Keep my hands that they may work for righteousness. Purify my heart that it may desire nothing apart from You. When temptation whispers, reminds me of the treasure of holiness. When the world calls me away, draw me nearer to Your presence.

Fill me with Your Spirit, that I may walk in love, speak with grace, and live in the joy of Your salvation. May my life today be a reflection of Your goodness, and may my every step bring me closer to You.

In the name of Jesus, my Savior and Redeemer, I pray. Amen.

"You are the light of the world. A city set upon a hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and be led to glorify your Father who is in heaven. 140:3.13 https://mm.spiritualfamily.net/Urantia_Book-Online_Reader-2019/Paper_140.html#140:3.13
