Elyon: Greetings to you all, this is Elyon. I enjoy this soulful fellowship to have the opportunity to speak with you while you are at such different locations. while in [[mind]] and in physical coordinates, each [[personality]] feels or recognizes distance. We know in our soul that we converge at [[Paradise]] and that through the passing of [[time]], though we appear at times separated by distance, by way of growth we are drawing ever closer together.

The [[power]] which drives growth is your [[faith]] and that faith derives its [[energy]] from your willingness to perceive your [[experience]]s in the broad context of your whole being not merely your family life or your hobbies, not merely your physical material status or your education or your social position but also your [[cosmic]] placement, your [[universe]] significance. The combination of these ingredients organized by your faith gives you power and that energy causes your growth.

When you bow in humility before the Almighty your faith stands up as in these vows and beholds the light of [[divine]] grace and in that inward [[communion]] you receive the dual power and find that when you stand in faith to the challenges of your existence you are graciously accompanied by He who rules and upholds all. Many mortals face the confrontation of a growing faith, an incomplete faith, one which grapples with incompleteness of consciousness of awareness, of insecurity because of a lack of certainties derived from experience, but your faith is filled by grace. Picture webbing, say one of your burlap fabrics. Every crisscross of thread is a path of experience that your faith has undertaken. The holes in between is where uncertainty is encountered. The grace is the filling medium, the mud if you will, which coats the faith and makes you whole and multiplies your strength into bonding. Ever and always go to God whether you feel worthy or not, whether you feel connected or in need of reconciliation, for your deficiencies are remedied by the outpouring of the mercy and love of God.

I give thanks when I pause and reflect upon the majestic and stupendous display of universe [[reality]]. From nothing came all things because of the will of God. A being so capable, unfathomable to me in my own [[creativity|creative]] expression, all the while intensely [[personal]] and focused on each of His children. I sit in awe at the expansiveness of this awareness of one who can rule a whole universe and can reside in your own heart. Faith and grace, hand in hand. You can always trust where you fall short. He will take (you) up and you can always be certain that when He calls you forth and you are unsure, He will give the strength and the abilities ahead of your required effort.

Some teach, let go and let God, others teach the importance of self expression, that your [[creativity]] is what God seeks that you do. I say it is a partnership not to be divided one away from the other, but both held in oneness in embrace (with) your Creator. Jesus speaking to the [[human]] [[ego]] cautioned that in service, not to let the right know what the left hand does because the human mind can become overly absorbed in rewarding itself towards acts. But in your divine center, you the left hand and God the right hand work together to bring about ministry and here is where you count on the [[presence]] of spirit and your own being.

Lantarnek: Greetings to you, this is Lantarnek, one of the [[Melchizedek]] missionaries to your world. I commend you for your diligence at pursuing an awareness of a [[universe]] scope that your personal progress as a spiritual being is enlarged into a cosmic awareness of a universe citizen and that your actions as a single individual are viewed in the context of planetary purpose and while you are aware of your limitations in human expression you have come to the realization of the corporate power in the collectivity of souls and in your association of the many ministering spirits and the angelic hosts. As Elyon spoke of faith with grace, we Melchizedeks count upon your efforts seemingly insignificant but nonetheless of great importance in actuality because every participant is a significant contribution to the entire effort.

When you deepen your relationship to the [[divine]] [[presence]] you serve your brothers and sisters and you uplift the world for the reality is not only the hard rock, the blowing storms or those peaceful sunny afternoons, it is also the establishment of an awareness of spirit presence in the mind connected by way of soul to He who is overall.

You may not sit on a commission, you may not be a delegate to another country or an ambassador, you may only serve as little ones whom Christ has blessed but every expansion of mind and soul enlarges the reality of the presence of spirit. I encourage you to keep up this work. You are of great help to our efforts upon Urantia.

Q: Well Lantarnek, as I reflect on your encouragement to us as individuals to make that connection with our divine selves, growing our souls and affecting those around us, is the effect exponentially more when we do it collectively in a group in close contact? What made me ponder this was something I read today from a friend and let me digress and say my spiritual path began in meditation and eastern philosophy and specifically transcendental meditation and I have some friends that still stay very much involved and he e-mailed me a message about a gathering they had within the last month of thousands of mediators that gathered together in Fairfield, Iowa in group meditation and they feel that they have had an effect on our country and they referred comically that it was related in economic terms, but that the stock market has gone up because of their collective consciousness and lastly I think because of the consequence of people gathering together to work together and I think it says in the [[Urantia Text|Urantia book]] that the effect is the number of people squared. How much more powerful is it and important for us to try to work together as groups rather than just as individuals?

Lantarnek: You have indicated a very important aspect of planetary progress. From your studies of the papers for Urantia you have developed an understanding of the nature and progress of the soul long perceived on your world but often misunderstood as to the significance and you know that the growth of the soul makes for a larger substance of your being into which the divine spirit becomes one. You have also had revealed to you the God of time and space, the Supreme Being. It too has been a recognized reality on your world. You speak of your eastern religions which have understood many aspects of the nature of the Supreme.

This is the result of your efforts at collective consciousness. When an individual undertakes an experience which harmonizes the physical, mental and the spiritual elements of being there is always the result of soul growth. When souls, many individuals harmonize one another's various elements of being into a corporate community of effort you have Supreme growth. Light and life is Supreme growth as a result of all the many souls growth. Yes you will find greater power and effectiveness as you unite in purpose and focus with spirit for the good of the world. Thank you for your question. [Thank you.]

Q: Thank you so much for that reminder of our brother Michael's loneliness and at the same time communion. That certainly makes our efforts seem united. I'll start waving to you guys during the day.

Q: Along those same lines as I ponder my own choices, I have a choice to either spend time pursuing my own spiritual growth in study, reflections of that study, in stillness practice and in this wonderful way through the spiritual eye of seeing the unseen friends and through faith working even more with them and collectively trying to improve our planet. Obviously that cannot help but produce good fruits but the question is if there is a choice to do it in concert with others say a study group [or alone], but if you have to choose one or the other is there a better way?
