Inspiring Words from a Reader of The Urantia Book

By Jim Watkins, Cape Coral, Florida, USA

When I was 16, I begged God to show me the truth. I told Him I wasn’t afraid to know it if He would only show me the way. At the age of 19, I discovered The Urantia Book, and I have been discovering it ever since. Thirty years later, I have come to realize that I am the luckiest person on earth. Our Father, through the tireless efforts of his spirit children, our unseen friends, has entrusted me with this latest revelation of religious truth.

Ponder for a moment what we have been given: a glimpse into the heavens, a peek through the keyhole of the door to a living and vibrant universe, filled with spirit beings who so lovingly watch and care over us in the name of our heavenly Father who has made all of this possible. These are the truths contained within the pages of The Urantia Book.

I thank our spirit cousins bringing this revelation into my life and for making it possible for me to know and love God and to learn something of His entire spiritual family of which I am a proud and dedicated member.

To be so very fortunate as to live at this time, and to be among the first human beings to have been given this revelation − it is as if I have won the spiritual lottery.

I only hope The Urantia Book will be as transformative in your life as it has been in mine.
