Inspiring Stories About Mothers
/in Trending Now!Truthbook features many wonderful stories submitted by readers.
Happy Mother’s Day! From a story about mothers: “I know now what appreciation is. Without my mother, I would not be who I am today. By helping my mother, only now do I realize how difficult and tough it is to get something done on your own. And I have come to appreciate the importance and value of helping one’s family.” Read More
From The Urantia Book: “The presence of a helpless baby determined the early differentiation of male and female activities; the woman had to maintain a settled residence where she could cultivate the soil. And from earliest times, where woman was has always been regarded as the home.”
Does God Have a Plan for Your Life?
/in Trending Now!Some religionists believe that God does not have a plan for our lives, that to be subject to such a plan would mean that we cannot exercise our freewill. This article from patheos.com (a project of beliefnet) states that ‘God Does NOT Have A Plan For Your Life’. Children are born and eventually learn to live. Telling people God has a special plan for them is taking away their free choice before it can be exercised.” Read More
The Urantia Book teaches us that God DOES have a plan for your life. It is a definite and predetermined plan for your intellectual and spiritual development – model careers, the ideal lives. But does that mean you cannot exercise your free will? “It is not incumbent upon any human being to accept this plan. You are all subjects of predestination, but it is not foreordained that you must accept this divine predestination; you are at full liberty to reject any part or all of the Thought Adjusters’ program. It is their mission to effect such mind changes and to make such spiritual adjustments as you may willingly and intelligently authorize, to the end that they may gain more influence over the personality directionization; but under no circumstances do these divine Monitors ever take advantage of you or in any way arbitrarily influence you in your choices and decisions.
