141:5.1 One of the most eventful of all the evening conferences at Amathus was the session having to do with the discussion of spiritual unity. James Zebedee had asked, “Master, how shall we learn to see alike and thereby enjoy more harmony among ourselves?” When Jesus heard this question, he was stirred within his spirit, so much so that he replied: “James, James, when did I teach you that you should all see alike? I have come into the world to proclaim spiritual liberty to the end that mortals may be empowered to live individual lives of originality and freedom before God. I do not desire that social harmony and fraternal peace shall be purchased by the sacrifice of free personality and spiritual originality. What I require of you, my apostles, is spirit unity – and that you can experience in the joy of your united dedication to the wholehearted doing of the will of my Father in heaven. You do not have to see alike or feel alike or even think alike in order spiritually to be alike. Spiritual unity is derived from the consciousness that each of you is indwelt, and increasingly dominated, by the spirit gift of the heavenly Father. Your apostolic harmony must grow out of the fact that the spirit hope of each of you is identical in origin, nature, and destiny.

United Unity

Longer nights and shorter days

Until the solstice does display.

We’ve yet to truly get first freeze.

I feel more thankful on my knees.

When on my knees, I must look up.

Pray to the One who fills my cup.

The day exists for me to live.

And bring me home when I’m adrift.

When on your knees, a thankful pose

Find your beauty, perhaps a rose.

See your smells, and smell the beauty.

Spread awareness, it’s your duty.

The Spirit of the life you live

Will lift you up to do His biz.

Love the fact that you’re aware.

Love uplifts, and takes you there.

Love has always been the answer!

Bellicosity leads to disaster!

Hateful words dissolve with love.

Love with kindness must evolve!

Someday, and it won’t be long

This world unites with “One God’s Song”.

We must see, and then accept

The God of Love, does not have sects.

Buddhist, Hindu, Muslim all

Christian, Jew, one God stands tall!

We must unite, and live in peace.

Accept that fact, One God’s replete!

Thank You, Father, of all worlds.

This speck of dust in space still whirls

On its journey through creation.

We will unite all of the nations!

39:4.14 The keys of the kingdom of heaven are: sincerity, more sincerity, and more sincerity. All men have these keys. Men use them – advance in spirit status – by decisions, by more decisions, and by more decisions. The highest moral choice is the choice of the highest possible value, and always – in any sphere, in all of them – this is to choose to do the will of God. If man thus chooses, he is great, though he be the humblest citizen of Jerusem or even the least of mortals on Urantia.

Sincerity

Autumn rains on this fine day.

Gloomy weather won’t dismay.

Many chores and things to do.

Inside I know God loves me too.

We’ll find ways to do what’s needed.

On this day, I’ll go where leaded.

I will look inside myself

And deal with the cards I’m dealt.

The way of life upon this day

Presents itself in different ways.

Different levels of pursuit

The way I choose gives me my route.

I have appointments to attend.

I’ll try to work all of them in

To be dependable in choice

Helps me hear the inner voice.

We all must see within our actions

How God’s will gives satisfactions.

Our motivations then will be

Based upon reality.

The inside look is paramount.

An honest look inside can daunt.

But when you look you have been found.

God will free where you’ve been bound.

Thank You, Father, for the day.

I know my best I need display!

At times I know I’ve fallen short

But I’m sincere I do report.

16:9.5 Civilizations are unstable because they are not cosmic; they are not innate in the individuals of the races. They must be nurtured by the combined contributions of the constitutive factors of man – science, morality, and religion. Civilizations come and go, but science, morality, and religion always survive the crash.

Our Inner War
The chill of rain demarks the season.
The chilliness gives us a reason
To prepare for what is coming.
Winter wakens, it is yawning.

Winter stretches as it wakes.
It changes things within its wake.
The flow of winter air comes close
And freezes us without our coats.

Turn on the heat, that is a must.
We don’t want our pipes to bust.
Fire was our first invention.
Controlling it gives comprehension.

What do we really truly know?
We’re still searching how to go.
Combustion with its CO2
Yields global warming, that is true.

Combustion of another substance?
Hydrogen yields water sustenance.
But industry is not set up.
Money structures do disrupt.

Can we see ourselves to change?
Or are we victims on this train?
Speeding onward, blindly seeking
Solutions while the time is ticking.

Thank You, Father, for Your Love.
On earth we need more, so we solve
Global warming and wars too.
With Trust and Faith we call on You!
