Good evening and greetings to you all. I am your teacher, Will, who loves you.

I commend your efforts to understand our purposes. But because of your inexperience and your insistence on interpretations which suit your human views of the world in which you are actors, you overrun and pass by the true goal. It is not our purpose to change your world. It is our purpose to change you. By initiating changes in each of you and all your brothers and sisters by faith and by the example of service, it will thereby change your world. But the modification of worlds is not within our job description. We work one person at a time. That's the Father's desire.

===Lesson===
A life lived in faith is a life of change - ever upward. Do not aim at communication with us for, from time to time, you will fall below the mark and this will be an additional burden on your lives. Aim for communication with the Heavenly Father. Then when you fall below the mark, you can communicate with us and it will not be such a burden to you. There is no substitute with time with your Father. He who ordered a universe, Michael of Nebadon, concerned himself with nothing but the discernment of the Father's desire in every proposed course of action. You would do well to follow his example. We recommend it to you.

The Father's way has no error in it. You will change based upon your own initiatives. You will change based upon the accidental and opportunistic improvements suggested by the Indwelling Adjuster. You will change from observation and association with others who have preceded you on the path and you will change from the leadership from those who follow on behind you. Do not trouble yourselves about when the world will be changed. For each of you it will be sufficient when you are changed. When that change takes place it will seem like a new world to you anyway.

I have missed your company in these last weeks when our communication was interrupted or blockaded for one reason or another. I am your teacher. You are students in the Melchizedek school. It is my privilege to serve you. During the week for minutes and hours at a time we have exchanges, you and I, person to person. It is the background that is the confusion that is your daily lives.

Rest easy. All is well in the universe, though not immediately understandable. The Melchizedek indicates that he will have more to say in the future. We can expect his interaction on a more regular basis. That is my report. I cherish your company. Congratulations to one beginning transmission. It is the only uphill sleigh ride there is. That is all I have to say. God go with you during the week.
