Cherubim "I’ll be Frank" and Alice.
Subject: "Cherubim - Their Lives and Destinies."Received by George
Barnard.
Frank: "After dropping hints all over the place, like the high-born ladies
of olden days dropped their handkerchiefs for a much admired suitor to pick up and
courteously hand back to them, we, too, make it known that we, on occasions, would like to
be noticed.
"Frankly . . . it has taken a while, but you are here with us now, and our beloved
Midwayer friend will do the honors in passing on our thoughts. This is Frank, together
with his beloved consort of many ages, Alice. We are Cherubim. We are longtime students in
this local universe, and we are the offspring of Mother Spirit. As well, we are not now
attached to any specific (individual) mortal.
"Somewhat unusual, but not all that uncommon, we have been given the task of
overseeing, and at-higher-level assist in coordinating, the activities of the 11:11
Progress Group. We travel, and we visit the many members of the Progress Group that are so
widespread. We observe, and we take note of the growth of this group, and we make
recommendations in connection with this communication and teaching effort.
"We, Cherubim and Sanobim alike, were created for the task of observation,
watchcare, and recording, and it is in this fashion that we in turn learn a great deal
about the terrestrial lives you mortals lead. To do what we do-to serve-is our
around-the-clock duty, and our delight. From time to time, although hardly on a regular
basis, we grasp at the opportunity to say our piece.
"We work closely with the Urantia Midwayers, and we report to our Seraphic Leaders
of the Progress Contingent. They, in turn, are responsible to our esteemed Planetary
Prince.
"There is a steady growth in the number of those humans who are achieving some
form of contact with their Midwayer Partners, Co-workers and Assistants. We delight in
noticing this growing number that are increasingly achieving some form of awareness of
their Celestial Associates, more so are we intrigued by the particular functions they
might be embracing.
"Indeed, our dear brother, this is the Spiritual Correcting Time, and although you
generally impatient mortals tend to want everything ‘now’,
‘immediately’, and ‘why should I have to wait for it’, we are used to
seeing everything that is on a grand scale move relatively slowly, steadily. We who are
used to seeing things take ages, do notice a quickening all around, oh yes! Yes, it will
take ages, but this treasured planet will reborn in Light and Life.
"Everything is relative, and compared to you, short-lived mortals, we
‘fostered the growth’ of ever so many human toddlers before we were appointed to
this present task we treasure. And still, we take time to revisit those of our charges
still here that have grown and matured, and we learn so much, we almost feel human."
George: "So do I . . . on rare occasions."
Frank: "Understandable! We are brought into existence with the ability to
unconditionally love you. We observe the magnificent lives and tasks you are offered to
lead. We note the opportunities that come your way on this world, compared to what is
available to the likes of us Cherubim, and, we might even feel a ‘tinge’ of envy
of the great life paths you can choose for yourselves.
"Envy, indeed, but we can never be jealous, for jealousy and the unconditional
love we feel for you mortals, simply cannot go together. We feel towards you like a parent
might feel, praising and encouraging their children to do their best at school, to aim
high when choosing a wonderful career, and we delight in the offspring’s progress as
we experience your lives by drawing close to you.
"We truly are ‘born-to-be’ surrogate parents to you, and from time to
time our faint voices of encouragement do come through to you. The destiny of Cherubim may
well be to always remain Cherubim, however, in extraordinary circumstances exciting
promotions can come our way. Our tasks have long entailed the caring for the younger of
your races in all its varieties . . . (inaudible - something "reward") . . . and
our diligent studies of the human mind’s workings, have allowed Alice and I to be
placed where we are today.
"Be diligent at your tasks. This is Frank. Always Frank."
Alice: "The big talker and I love you all."
George: "We love you two right back."
