Thank
you for your note to Truthbook.
It
may be that you are not a native English-speaking person, so I am going
to have to guess at the exact meaning of your question here...
You
ask how you can change your life so that it is richer...? That could
mean
richer in a material sense, as in money or possessions, or it could
mean richer in a spiritual sense. I will assume it is the latter - that
you want to know how to make your spiritual life richer. I cannot give
any advice to make your material life richer...
First,
be encouraged to know that God lives within
your mind, and that he is approachable in your
thoughts. This
is a powerful part of the revelation of The Urantia
Book. God is your
spirit Father, and he loves you with the affectionate love of a Father.
This knowledge will help you to feel free to communicate with that most
innermost part of yourself through quiet times of meditation and
prayer. God hears our prayers, and if your aim is to enrich your inner
spiritual life, you will be rewarded by an increased sense of peace and
connection if you make the effort to reach up to God. As you reach up
in your thoughts and prayers,
God will reach down to meet you where you are and as you are. Share
your inner life with God. Memorized words are not necessary...God
answers the attitude of your soul.
Become interested
in the people in your life - cultivate a friendly attitude towards all,
and learn to love people, even with all their faults, for that is how
God loves you. Know that God dwells within everyone else, too, and that
makes all people your brothers and sisters. Learn to look for the
beautiful in life, and cultivate the fruits of the Spirit.
From
The Urantia Book:
(193:2.2)
"Salvation is the free
gift of God, but those who are born of the spirit will immediately
begin to show forth the fruits of the spirit in loving service to their
fellow creatures. And the fruits of the divine spirit which are yielded
in the lives of spirit-born and God-knowing mortals are: loving
service, unselfish devotion, courageous loyalty, sincere fairness,
enlightened honesty, undying hope, confiding trust, merciful ministry,
unfailing goodness, forgiving tolerance, and enduring peace
Know
that you are part of a divine plan that promises you eternal life. This
eternal
life is yours by a simple act
of acceptance of
your status as a child of God.
