Prayer: Divine Parents, come be with us as we [[feel]] the [[joy]] of [[spirit]], feel the [[love]] that spirit has with us. Help us to all come [[together]] around this theme, this certainty that we are all on the field of [[play]], that in our [[desire]] to be of [[service]] to you our Divine Parents, that we are in fact doing this very thing. Help us to take this [[certainty]] with us throughout the [[process]] because it is so easy to [[wonder]] if we are doing the right thing, if we are on track, if we are following the correct leading or perhaps being led astray. We have mortal concerns like this and then as in this very [[moment]] we come to you seeking [[assurance]], seeking comfort that we are on the team together, a valuable member, making contributions as we so will, as we [[discern]] your will and attempt to execute it. We are ever willing to receive your [[guidance]] so that we may put our [[steps]] in motion and make our efforts pleasing in your sight for that is our greatest desire. Let it be so, even now, here, this time, in this moment, let us [[embrace]] this act of [[grace]], even now, thank you.
Machiventa Melchizedek: Yes, hello to you all, I am here. You know me as [[Machiventa]] Melchizedek. I am drawn to this [[petition]], that you be reassured of your [[position]], the part that you play in this great scheme of spirit that we are involved in and I willingly come to offer such reassurance. I know each and every one of you by name. I have a certain fondness for each and every one of you who will so [[earnestly]] apply yourselves in whatever [[direction]] you think to be most true and most [[beautiful]]. This is all that can be asked of an [[individual]], that they be true to their [[convictions]] and that they move forward in [[demonstration]] of these convictions with [[faith]] as their energetic force. I look around this circle and I see all of you are indeed on the team, you are indeed members of this [[tribe]] who come together willingly to pursue where spirit may lead and then go the second mile to take this direction and [[guidance]] and apply yourselves in taking the steps necessary to move you in the direction of your [[perception]].
Some of you have been with us since the beginning of this [[experiment]] we call the [[Teaching Mission]]. Some of you have come much later but are no less [[devout]]. You all are [[aware]] that we will accept any and all contributions from [[sincere]] believers and among this group all are sincere believers. So, let us rally up together once again, let us come to the middle of the field and put our hands in the center of this circle. Let us feel the [[presence]] of all the others of us in this circle together. Let us sense this feeling of togetherness, of [[unity]] in [[purpose]]. Even though we may not be fully aware of what the next move out on the field may be, we are all of deep conviction that we have a part to play.
This sense of [[conviction]] drives us forward even though we may not have [[absolute]] conviction of the next [[step]], we await the [[guidance]], we seek the direction provided from on high and then, with this [[perception]] we proceed to act, we proceed to [[function]] in our capacities as valued members of the team. I will never tire of coming and bringing this sense of conviction and [[assurance]]. We all need from time to time to hear the coach rally the team once again and bring everyone to the same page, the same moment, the same [[feeling]] of unity and togetherness. It is my great [[pleasure]] to offer this service to you here and now. Just as I offer this service to you, likewise it is your [[opportunity]] to go out and be of service to all those around you, to bring a sense of this peace and love and light that you experience even now to all of your brothers and sisters around you.
As was mentioned, it may not even require [[words]], merely your disposition, your [[posture]], your sense of [[peace]] and [[stability]] will be apparent in all your [[interactions]] with your fellows. In this way you may be, as was mentioned, the only example of the [[Teaching Mission]] that anyone ever experiences. So, as is your desire, make it a good one, make it a positive impression. Make your [[countenance]] so full of this [[love]] and [[peace]] that it is brimming with the [[joy]] of your [[existence]], with your awareness that you are a [[child of God]], that you belong to a divine family and that there are innumerable assistants available to you because you are a part of this family. You are loved and cared for and you may demonstrate your knowledge of this. You may bring your awareness of this [[truth]] out and make it real in this world and among your fellows. This is where your [[understanding]] of this peace, your awareness of this [[grace]] not only [[transforms]] you, but your demonstration of this is transformative to those around you. It may never become [[necessary]] for you to use [[words]] to define why you are the way you are, merely your example will be enough. So as your Master said, [[the gospel]] he brought is not merely to be [[discussed]], it is rather to be lived. It is meant to be transforming. It is a [[tool]] that may be used to [[change]] yourself and as a result, change the world.
If I could bring you any words of [[comfort]] this evening it might be, don't [[worry]], [[fear]] not that you are somehow [[disassociated]] in any way for this is simply not the case. I call you all to witness in this very hour, the sense of [[connection]] and belonging that is established, to take this in to your own [[being]], to drink of this cup for it is meant for you, it is meant for us. And so avail yourselves of this offer of grace, this connection to who you are, where you belong and what you are a part of. Let this [[become]] so thoroughly a part of your being that you cannot [[imagine]] life without it. [[Embrace]] this to the degree that you become this truth, that you exemplify this [[reality]] in your everyday living.
I would say this is your [[mission]], but really, this is your gift of [[grace]], this is your [[purpose]] [[unfolding]]. This is not in any way a [[mandate]] but rather an offering and you all who have become devoted [[students]] of spirit, understand such an offering and extend yourselves to embrace it. That's what makes you devoted students. That's what makes me [[proud]] to have you in my classrooms and as my associates. I claim you all, each one, as [[scholars]] of spirit, willing to sign up for higher and higher [[education]] and willing to extend the [[effort]] necessary for you to move from one level to the next and the next.
I harbor no [[doubts]] that you will continue to show yourselves in this way, to [[demonstrate]] your [[abilities]] and capacities. So let us be about this with as much [[joy]] as we can summon in the [[process]] for these labors of spirit should not be [[oppressive]]. They should not be confining, rather they should be liberating and joyous. Let it be so, even now, as we gather together here at this time. Let this [[feeling]] of joy pervade our [[energy]] field; let is so [[influence]] and color our [[perception]] that we are changed and lifted up.
I am in deep [[gratitude]] for your devoted [[attention]] to my [[words]]. It has been my [[pleasure]] on a number of occasions to come among you and fellowship with you and I look forward to [[future]] encounters as well. I will now take my leave of this [[forum]] but will remain in attendance and observance of all that transpires with you my eager students. Be at peace, go in peace, thank you for your attention, farewell.
Light: Hello to you all, my name is Light. I am here to [[share]] the microphone if you will for some [[thoughts]] I would offer into the [[thought stream]]. You all know well that [[light]] dispels [[darkness]], that even a small amount of light dispels darkness, in fact there can be no total darkness if there is any light at all present. This is one of the roles that you play as members on this great team we are on. You are the ones who may bring light into every darkened corner and into every shadowed edge. You are the ones who may [[shine]] light directly on aspects of your [[reality]] you perceive as dark. Where there is [[doubt]] and uncertainty you may shine a light and [[illuminate]] the way. Where there may be untruths, as you perceive them, you may shine light on the equation and help to [[discern]] the true values contained within.
You have spoken of these areas of discord between certain [[groups]] and members of groups. Surely enough [[light]] directed onto the misunderstandings will illuminate the [[truth]] for all. This light of truth that may [[emanate]] from you is one of the great tools you have. You bring this energetic force with you and bring it to bear on all manner of circumstances and equations in your lives, and each time, every time you apply your [[intention]] in this way to merely bring the light of [[truth]], the light of [[beauty]], the light of [[goodness]] with you into the room of your experience then the entire room may be illuminated by your very act of will. No situation or circumstance will remain unaffected if it is your desire to influence it with the light of [[love]], the light of truth, of peace, of grace. Any circumstance or situation that you can imagine will be [[transformed]] if illuminated with the intention of one who will bring these divine [[values]] and [[meanings]] into the equation.
I hear you all talking about [[roles]] that you [[play]], teams that you're on and the parts that you see yourselves taking in these scenarios and I would [[encourage]] you to see yourself as custodian of the [[light]], bringer of the light, a practitioner of light and this light comes from on high. This light may be brought forth through you, may be enhanced by you, may be [[focused]] as a matter of your intention. But this light is generated from on high and is there in your equation as a result of your connection to bring it through, to [[transmit]] it, to conduct it through your being. Each one of you is, in a very real sense, a [[portal]] to this divine energy, a portal which may allow the means whereby this light may be brought into your very realm, into your very room, your very [[relationships]], your life. You are the means that can transmit this light and bring this light to bear in your life equations.
So when you are [[visualizing]] what your role may be and how you may [[function]] so that it is pleasing in the sight of your Divine Parents, I remind you that you have this great [[force]] at play. The fact that you are a [[portal]] and can transport divine [[meaning]] and [[value]] into the material realm is a sacred [[gift]]. Use it freely, use it as you can think to do so, not only for the benefit of others, but put yourselves in this light as well. See yourselves as the conduit for this light, that you may bring it in to your [[equations]] at will and then, be of great [[joy]] that this is so and be about this [[process]]. Enjoy, have fun, for that is the true [[desire]] of your Divine Parents, that you live a life that knows joy, that contains fun and that feels peace and love.
So for all this talk of being in [[service]] and being pleasing, do not ever forget to take [[care]] of your [[individual]] selves for you are the only one that can do this to the delight of your parents. You are the only one that can give you what you need in this [[life]] and yes, it is [[good]] and [[noble]] to be about thinking of service and how you may be beneficial to others but as well, I encourage you to think of yourselves. What service are you in need of? How might you help yourself because nothing, nothing will delight your [[parents]] better than you seeing to your needs, tending to your desires and fostering your [[growth]] and peace. In the end, no one else may do these tasks for you. In the end, the measure of your completeness as an individual will be the measure of how well you were able to look after yourself as well as the desire to look after others. So don't [[forget]] when looking around for how to be of service, to occasionally look in the [[mirror]] and see one who is a [[child of God]], who is a member of a divine family, who has needs and requirements like all the others and grant yourself the same love that you would grant others, the same desire for [[peace]] that you would bring to others. Drink the cup of [[grace]] as it passes by.
===Closing===
What a [[pleasure]] it is to be allowed these [[moments]] of fellowship with you. Thank you all dear ones for your devoted [[efforts]] at seeking spirit for divine [[values]]. It's a pleasure to meet with you under such circumstances and a pleasure to remind you of how valuable you are to the team for no player on any team can be truly helpful if they are unfulfilled or [[compromised]] in any way. See to your own needs so that you may be the best team player. It has been a pleasure to join you. I bid you all farewell this evening and remind you of this sense of belonging that we feel even now, being here [[together]] under this common umbrella of [[awareness]]. Take this sense with you and reconstruct it at will. It is here for you to use, for us to use. Good evening to you all, thank you and farewell.
