Changes

[[Dedication]] does not imply eliminating from your [[life]] as it does direct you toward [[manifesting]] in your life. That which hinders and [[separates]] you from [[God]] will fall away as you lose your [[taste]] in these situations. You will enjoy [[peace]] where your life does not [[conflict]] with [[the Father]]'s will, even though the Father has no specific [[command]] in that regards. You will enjoy the exhilaration of being a [[representative]] of the greatest [[Being]] in all [[the universe]], actively and actually letting His [[spirit]] [[flow]] through you, [[touching]] the lives of all around you, working in concert with His [[presence]] in each and every one.

Pause for a moment to consider how special it is to know that you, one simple [[human being]], are working with many, many [[Thought Adjuster|fragments of the Father]] Himself. You are like the batboy in the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Series World Series], and you know that around you are the great players of [[eternity]], those [[fragments]] of [[divinity]] resident in all. Through your dedication you come to the [[clarity]] of [[insight]] and the [[attainment]] . .. (some lost) . .. with these spirits. The rewards are innumerable and the [[joys]] unending.

Make it your [[purpose]] to always direct yourself to [[the Father]]. [[Devote]] yourself to the [[reality]] [[manifestation]] of Him, which you have come to know as [[Truth, Beauty, and Goodness|truth, as beauty, as goodness]], and, above all, as [[Michael]]. This [[dedication]] will give you the [[credentials]] to be enlisted in [[universe]] chores which at this [[point]] you cannot even [[fathom]]. As my [[students]] I [[congratulate]] you for your dedication to [[our mission]], your willingness to span the gulf of [[doubt]] with your [[faith]]. The rewards of this [[effort]] you [[taste]] now. Utilize this same [[vigor]] of [[faith]] you have in every aspect of your life. It is my [[pleasure]] to make room for other teachers. Thank you for [[listening]].

J: I'm [[wondering]] if a teacher is present who would like to [[answer]] a [[question]] I have. We have all come to [[accept]] that the [[Urantia Book]] is our [[textbook]] for universe [[orientation]], and that the [[Teaching Mission]] is an [[outreach]] of [[personalities]] where we can all gain greater [[relationship]] with our higher [[brothers and sisters]]. Recently it has come to my [[mind]] that the [[consideration]] of where the [[organizations]] that promoted the Urantia Book stand like [http://www.urantia.org the Foundation]. It seems they don't take a stance one way or the other. Should we be concerned about the Foundation, the [[Urantia Book]], and all the interrelations there with the [[Teaching Mission]]? Or is this something that is just an unneeded burden on our [[hearts]]?

(S as TR) Unidentified teacher: Send that out away from you the [[pressure]] you [[feel]] when organizational [[differences]] arise. What has that to do with why you are here? You are [[simply]] to come forward with the [[understanding]] of [[the Father]] in such a way as to [[enlighten]] those around you with His [[presence]] inside of you. If you are to be effective in ministering to your [[brothers and sisters]] then truly...Gosh, I'm feeling presence...

Malvantia: ...and yet it need not be like the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Road_to_Damscus road to Damascus], blinding. I am pleased to see the [[respect]] that you give your [[Creator]], that you do not take it lightly. There isn't any reason, however, to be overwhelmed. He [[embraces]] you as a brother and as a friend, though yet he be the very [[source]] of your life, [[existence]].

In your [[doom]] and gloom times find that [[light]] switch that can brighten your day, and commune with [[the Father]] for [[answers]]. Do not allow the [[weather]] to get you down, for there is sunshine within your [[hearts]]. Find the sunshine and the birds [[singing]] each day, for they are there. Sometimes you may have to go deep within yourselves to find this. It is there, my [[friends]], for you to [[unfold]] each day with new [[clarity]] and new [[understanding]], new [[abundance]] within you of what you can accomplish. [[Think]] not of the limitations, rather do a [[polarity]] switch for yourselves, and think of the unlimited [[possibilities]] that you have each day to uncover new [[insights]], to climb higher on the ladder, to seek new [[mountain tops]]. This is all I have. My [[love]] to you.

Evelyn: [http://www.nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=1993-12-01-Elyon#Dedication Last week Elyon spoke about dedication]. This week we are given the [[idea]] of [[comparing]] this [[relationship]] with [[the teachers]] to [[marriage]] which implies [[dedication]]. I was thinking about our assignment to [[practice]] [[telepathy]], and how we practiced that for a while, and we let that drift away. Would you like to see us do that some more? Should we revive that [[exercise]]?

Sharmon: It is a [[procedure]] we [[encourage]] you to undertake. The minimal reward you [[receive]] is the commonality [[shared]] between you, time spent [[focusing]] on a brother or sister with the extra emphasis of sending or receiving, which is more potent than the mere casual [[thought]]. However, it is only the minimal gain. As [[time]] [[unfolds]] for [[your planet]] in its process of [[encircuitment]], this activity will meet with greater [[success]]. It is not to be [[expected]], (the success) in immediacy, but rather, now is the time to [[prepare]] for the greater [[manifestation]] that will follow. This is the time of being a toddler, where walking is a great endeavor. It takes all [[concentration]] and is not always successful. So, it is not a demand that we place upon you, rather an [[encouragement]] so that you may [[strengthen]] your [[mind]] and sharpen the [[intent]] of your will and become [[prepared]] for new chapters in planetary life.

Elyon (probably) In your [[relationship]] to your [[understanding]] always be mindful of the [[other]] and what they need. It is [[complex]],.. at times these seeming rules and [[regulations]] that go toward creating a [[good]] and [[perfect]] [[being]] but in [[reality]] it is still simple. It is to [[love]] [[your Father]] and to [[manifest]] this in your relationship with those in your [[existence]]. . .. careful in the [[steps]] you tread at times for [[fear]] of how you will affect; rudely in your [[manner]], at times oblivious to the needs of others. I [[caution]] you as [[friends]] that neither approach is [[necessary]]. It is a (new?) without [[fear]] to face the [[problems]] and [[desires]] and [[opinions]] of those who are within your realm. It is when you look with interest upon the [[opportunity]] you have to [[share]], when you are [[balanced]] in your approach, when you are aware of the [[feelings]] that those who are around you are feeling that . .. (TR: I think I missed that.) My point is to stay away from the fringe when responding to the needs of others and with sincerity to go forth and pursue the relationship instead of ignoring it.

I am treading delicate ground, as this is not my level of [[understanding]], and my assignment to you is not in this field. With [[assistance]] I provide this to you and [[express]] difficulty in conveying this through Jonathan.

Evelyn: I was [[thinking]], aren't [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seaweed seaweeds] a good source of [[minerals]]? I notice that you often stop short of specifics when volunteering [[information]]. If I were to ask, "Are seaweeds a good source of minerals that you need?" would you then be able to answer because I asked, but you can't necessarily [[volunteer]] the information unless we ask?

Elyon: I am not at [[liberty]] to prescribe your remedies. It is because I am not assigned to this [[activity]]. I would offer that there are many [[sources]] wherein you can acquire the [[nutrients]] required for many aspects of your [[body]]. You have [[illustrated]] one. Each individual assimilates differently because of [[racial]] background and, in the case of [[Urantia]], [[biologic]] [[diversity]] and [[weakness]] is widespread. It is hard to say, but you can intake what appears to you to be proper and observe the results. I am not to say any more than this. I'm sorry.
