Have Courage
Submitted by Tommy Outerbridge
Once the initial feeling of joyous awe and wonder had subsided enough
to allow contemplation of how The Urantia Book would affect any
personal dreams, aspirations or plans, the most definite 'quality'
imparted to a young and impressionable lad just starting off at
university, was... courage.
Reading about the Master's unswerving faith in tackling experiences on
this planet when life was much tougher than today, and learning
accurate details of his 'walkabouts' with Ganid and then his disciples,
gave me the courage to face a future without fear. Life took on new
meaning.
The quotation that sums it up was when Jesus portrayed the profound
surety of the God-knowing man, saying: "To a God-knowing kingdom
believer, what does it matter if all things earthly crash?"
