Elyon (Jonathan TR): I welcome you again to another session in the classrooms of the Melchizedeks. I am Elyon, your friend, even more so than your teacher. I continue our discussion of grace and how it plays out in your life, for I detect interest on your parts in this recognizable element of the Father.

===Lesson===
    
You have understood the reality that love cannot be contained; it must be bestowed even as it is received. Of course the implication is not that you do not retain love, for love and its flow may be likened to a reservoir in a river. Much love pours into you that you may retain, but as you are filled it spills into the lives of others. Grace is quite the same.

===Dialogue===
    
Evelyn: In thinking back over our earlier discussion, it sounds like Kirk's experience of seeing grace as the Teaching Mission, and his growth was in receiving it, that sounds like it blends with what you are saying more than patience and courage (put forth by others as instances of grace in our lives). Grace is the situation more than it is our patience or courage in dealing with it. Am I getting closer?

Line 54: Line 57:     
Not to be misinterpreted but to take a casual approach, I would say that the truest interaction is the sharing of the Father, and you can do this joyfully much as you pass the volleyball back and forth. The Father becomes the center of all your attention, and your greatest, keenest orientation is to be on the alert as to where the ball is, when it comes your way, and how soon you can pass it on. I also would continue by saying you know the damaging effects of spiking the Father at another!

===Closing===
    
Let us take a moment to turn our attention to the source of grace. May we be receptive to the love of the Father that pours upon us in this form of grace that becomes evident in our lives as we grow in spirit standing.

As you have received much to ponder over these last 24 hours, I would bid you adieu. Again, I am grateful to have such inquisitive students, ones who do apply themselves throughout the week. I would in a sense report that you have given your Father Fragments much to do. There is not an idle moment because of your enthusiastic desire to be a better citizen in this universe... and rise as is the Father's will... of personal being. Until next time, farewell.
