2002-08-24-Trust Michael's Truth

Session 1

August 24, 2002

Opening

NEBADONIA (MOTHER SPIRIT) (T/R-Jill): There is love that abounds in this room today. You turn your hearts and your souls toward your father- brother Michael, but truly dear children, he reflects this right back to you. And your capacity to love today is predicated on your ever-growing ability to accept his love and your eternal parent's love for you. Michael is honored that you come together in his name and that your hearts are filled with such appreciation for his choosing Urantia for his blanketing the confused and darkened world with the Spirit of Truth. Today as you honor him and the Light he has brought to your world, he and I honor you for your faith to know and trust him, to seek to hear him internally when you are not in a world that encourages that. You, my children, are our beacons of Light and I tell you this day, your light Is transforming this world.

Seek this week-end to know the Father within yourself more dearly, more clearly, and may each of you allow your soul to see the souls of your brothers and sisters here today. Many are gathered here in the spiritual realm along with you here on earth for this occasion. Our love of Michael and our Eternal Father co-mingle and the energy created reaches farther than your finite minds can fathom. Trust it through your faith. Trust that your love Is transforming your world. Trust that Michael's message, his Truth, is reaching many who are also serving in their parts of your world. Be of joy, drink of each other's love, of each other's experiences and take them with you when you close your gathering, and be that love; be that compassion, with every conscious thought as you move forward each day. I truly spread my arms around this circle that is gathered here in this moment and give you my love; a mother's love that in the moment of giving, nurtures for a lifetime. I have a mother's pride and love for each of you. Be the peace and truth of your beloved Father in heaven.

Lesson

MACHIVENTA (T/R-Mark): I am present with you now. I am Machiventa Melchizedek and many of you have come to recognize me in our time spent together, even to include me in the description of your associates and friends. For this I am grateful. I will recognize some attributes of you today. I recognize that each of you are here now attendant in my classroom, in our classroom. This is by design and you have all developed a great foundation of faith, which allows you to be here, now. I applaud you for this faith foundation. I honor you for building such a strong foundation, which allows you to enter the spirit world even though you are material beings. I recognize this group, this area, for having pursued this Teaching Mission for one of your decades now. Ten years to all of you may seem a very large, significant chunk of your time, and I applaud you for your efforts in sticking with it and I recognize the many, many fruits that have become apparent to the universe for your efforts.

I recognize the truth and the sincerity with which you pursue your spiritual career and I honor you for this endeavor as well. This is your greatest task before you. The ramifications of your striving for this pursuit are many and varied, and impossible for you to see at this time. But I witness them clearly. The Father and the Mother Spirit witness them clearly, and we All honor you for the decisions which you have made which bring you here, now. As a direct result of your faith foundation, you are earning the abilities to reach higher and higher pinnacles of spiritual development, even in this limited lifetime. And while a decade may seem as a very long time to one of your mortal status, it is but a day in my week. I have been here many days, many weeks, and seen many come before you.

I will be resident here to see many after you. I will always remember working with you in this time, in this place. The things we can accomplish together and the things you accomplish individually are Spectacular for the universe to behold. One day from a much grander perspective we will both admire the progress that was made in your time on your world. For now I simply encourage you to be as you are being, to pursue as you are pursuing, to reach for the Light that you know by faith is there, and this Light will envelope you and embrace you and lift you onward and upward, as you Know to be the case. I cannot wait to witness this spectacle of evolution and you become impatient at times yourselves to see this unfoldment take place, but you are Exactly where you should be, each and every one. I encourage you to relish the moment, to witness the time, to absorb the experience, that you may become full and complete in your being.

We shall do this together. We are on the same path of spiritual upliftment for individuals and for planets. You have enlisted to be of assistance, it is noted, and as you have noticed, when you volunteer you get chosen. So, keep your hands raised, keep on the edge of your seat for the next opportunity which Will come your way. Be prepared to make the most of this moment, of this experience, as an experience of not only yours but of mine and of the Supreme's and ours. Live each experience as if this was your contribution to the Supreme. That is your job, your mission, your task at hand. It is joyful. It is a pleasure to witness, a joy to behold. I thank you All for taking part in this grand and glorious experiment. Thank you.

RANTARASON (T/R-Sheila): I am Rantarason. Today I would like to discuss a possible use of a tool called perspective. You are all very well aware of great changes, changes that extend from your inner most depths to the outer most of the universe. Changes that are coming have yet to even cross your mind. You have done well in letting go of old ways, opening up your minds to new possibilities, and even with daring to believe in your imagination. How odd we find it, the caution being used in believing your imagination. We have seen more caution used here than in driving very fast in your vehicle where you are surely aware of the possibility of accidents.

Yet in a world free of physical accidents, the use of your imagination has been limited. This is because of the many patterns of meditation that you have practiced for so long. We have watched you say with an aire, "Oh well, I will let this go," and in the next moment grab hold even tighter of an old way. I would now like to encourage that you grab hold of a tool called perspective. This is a tool used to identify your own foundation of beliefs in a certain moment. It is how you see the world. I am suggesting that in perceiving your world, you allow yourself to dare see it in a new light. I am suggesting that you allow yourself to dream wildly; to see through the first layer of any situation and search for the next-deeper meaning, and then take yet another step and look at this even deeper. In allowing yourself to take each layer, let go of the first one. Let go of definitions.

Dare to not have the answer. Ask yourself to see this in a way you have never seen before. And dare not to define it then. We know how fond you are of sharing your experiences with one another. This may sound as if you would not have anything to talk about, yet we know better. Can you imagine all of yourselves being in a room for one-half hour and not say a word? Can you imagine at the same time, still knowing, feeling, even seeing with your eyes closed, what you have to share with one another?

Even our group here chuckles at the thought of keeping this group quiet. This is but one drastic change in perspective. Can you imagine when the day comes that you simply look forward to being in a room together and know without speaking or using your eyes, what you all have to share. You are easily coming to this day. You are easily taking the steps towards this enlightenment. The joy that will be abundant among you in these new ways is to be. There is a very large team growing together that will create for your world the light and the life that you long for, that you trust is coming. This team builds itself on every new perspective of love that can be found. This is why there are no accidents. This is why it is safe to love, and this is why you have built the foundation of this team on exactly that. How else would we survive?

I, personally, look forward to the endless chitter-chatter of this group. I have learned a great deal about sense of humor. And now, I will sit and look forward to the rest of this day. Thank you.

LESTER (T/R-Ginnie): Thank you, my friends. Even I have been impressed by your lessons on life and on imaginations, and it takes a lot to get my attention. This is Lester. Indeed, joy should be a part of your ministry, and Urantia does have a great knack for turning most things into fun and games, and I say that with respect.

I am in your presence today to encourage you to respond to your moments of joy and your moments of wanting to connect with each other; your moments of reaching out, and to imagine yourselves as stupendous instigators of joy, and to imagine yourselves as very powerful beacons; very strong beams of light that many, many souls are hungering to receive. Your experiences of spirituality and religion have not been ones of joy, rather they have been ones of cautions: of "thou shalt not;" of "don't you dare;" and "oh, you can't do that;" or the biggest one of all, "you are not worthy." But I tell you today that you have immense power and immense influence over the spiritual realm even though it seems to you to be so nebulous and unreachable.

As you divest yourself of your more animal characteristics of pride, fear, anger, regret, laziness, and doubt, you will find within your repertoire many, many tools-and we hand them to you daily-to influence your immediate environment. There are many, many souls hungering to know what you know. There are many souls who would sit at your feet, so to speak, and listen to your words and watch your actions so they can learn to discover in their lives these beings of light that will help them survive this round and will help them to elevate their perspective to a much higher level. At this time in your history, many, many, many souls are hungering for higher values and more sublime and spiritual projects.

Just as you invite each other to your homes for gathering, you can also invite each other into your spiritual realm to spend some time there in rarified atmosphere, for it's time for this planet to elevate itself locally and to begin living lives of great honor and accomplishment. Imagine yourselves as spiritual octopuses- pardon the analogy-with glowing tentacles reaching out beams of light; reaching out. But because you are physical beings, you must get past your hesitancy, your fear, your feelings of powerlessness and weakness to believe more in yourself as a beacon of light. Our mission is on its track and I applaud each of you for your individual efforts and join you as you party this week-end. I leave you with a good spirit and much joy. Party hard. Good day.

MICHAEL (T/R-Mark): I would enter your circle. I am the one whom you gather to celebrate my arrival on your world. I am touched by this sign from all of you of your love and your devotion to me and my mission. I thank each of you individually and personally for your love and your devotion to me and to our Father. I am pleased to see your spiritual progress, your faith platforms built so tall to raise you up and lift you high.

I am pleased to meet you and embrace you in this spirit realm. I am overjoyed to chaperone you through the long journey ahead and be with you to stand side-by-side as we gaze upon the Father in due time. I have been with you all, each one, since your beginning and for most of you, it is only a relatively short time span of your existence that you have come to know me and embrace your spiritual aspect. I welcome you to your spirit side. This endeavor that you have earned through your decisions and your actions to this point has expanded your consciousness to make you more aware of functioning from your spirit perspective.

This perspective provides you with great peace when confronted with the daily trials and tribulations of your earthly existence. For you know, there is much more beyond and after all of this that is now. I will be there with you in this long journey. I am happy to walk down this path with each and every one of you. I offer you the rewards which are the fruits of your labor; of enhanced spiritual perspective. This brings a great peace upon your journey, upon our journey together. I share this with you now to the full extent of your abilities and would draw you forward with the invitation that All that you can experience in this realm is but the shadow of the Light from the next; that as far as you can imagine to come in this Light, individually and towards me and our Father, is but the first step in your magnificent journey.

It thrills me to see you take these steps. It is a wonder to the universe that you so fully embrace this act. You have surpassed our fondest expectations of what could be expected from your generation, your time, your place, and we are overjoyed that this plan appears to be so effective and we look to you, each one, to be our pioneers and provide us with the guidance of experience for which there is no substitute. You will be very valuable players in this game, as you are helping us to write the rules.

Closing

Therefore, I share this cup with you. I offer it at this time for each to partake of. This is our task at hand, our journey together, our joy to behold. Indeed, our privilege given to us by our Father. And now, each of you willingly, take this cup and sip it with me. That is all a Father could ask of his children, and in you I am so pleased. I embrace each one of you as I embrace you all; as I celebrate with you on the occasion of my arrival to your world, a time very special to me as is this time even now. I thank you and I love you. I will always be with you.
