===Lesson===
I offer you guidance in the undertaking begun by you in your purpose to further the cause of Michael on this planet. Here you have the opportunity to work beyond the abilities of any one of you singly. This opportunity magnifies your potential. In the grouping of you all, you have exceeded any requirement to function for the Master that you would feel incapable of attaining individually.

I offer you [[guidance]] in the undertaking begun by you in your [[purpose]] to further the cause of [[Michael]] on [[this planet]]. Here you have the [[opportunity]] to work beyond the abilities of any one of you singly. This opportunity [[magnifies]] your [[potential]]. In the grouping of you all, you have exceeded any requirement to [[function]] for [[the Master]] that you would feel incapable of attaining individually.
   −
I caution you in the area of coordination. There are a great number of people to be involved who will willingly contribute and who will bring with them multiplicity, varied contributions. This diverse influence will cause episodes that are unsettling and require you to develop skills in cooperation. At this position in our project it is important to welcome all with open arms and be willing to entertain the expression of each, toward the end that you may establish a unified foundation.

Now is not the time to define and divide, but to welcome, to reach, to accept, to integrate, to plan, to scribble and erase, to not feel the rush to set in permanency your goals now. These are attainable in due time and will be greater if grown toward rather than constructed deliberately.

I am pleased with your outreach. You are activating what you believe. Your belief has motivated you towards service. This is the secret of faith and will be a formula for your continued ascension in the realms beyond Urantia. Making effort based on your understanding with the eye toward eventual attainment is spiritual growth.

Rather than having gotten your things together first and then moving forward, there will always be the element of added factors as you proceed. The journey will never begin with full bags.

Simeon: We've [[thought]] to extend an [[invitation]] to the most [[sincere]] believers in [[this mission]] for our gathering. Were you trying to let us know that we should expand that? Can you help to [[clear]] this up for us?

Malvantra: As regards your gathering together of missionaries, you are [[wise]] to [[consider]] the invitation of those who hold close to [[heart]] your common [[experiences]], making allowance to welcome those who do seek.

I refer to your openness in the general activities you plan toward, in what you term your 'service group'. This is where you must be willing to accept the zealots, the Alpheuses, the Peters, and the Judases. There is interworking amongst personality types that must be established. I just caution to not selectively alienate into comfortable groupings. Does this clarify?

Daniel: Are you saying we should spend less time in planning the curriculum for the event, because the majority of the people coming are going to want to participate in this? We should make the place available, but not make our wills decide upon what is going to happen?
     −
Malvantra: The plans you make and establish are yours to choose. The events you list are for the mortals attending. Our involvement will be without question. We are not requiring you to gather as you have. It is our pleasure that you have done so. It signals a new chapter for the mission by your demonstrating a collecting on your level with each other.

It is in reference to your non-gathering plans that I caution you to not set your boundaries too soon. You will be pleasantly uplifted by our involvement at your summer meeting. We will have all troops present. It is my pleasure to make announcement as the opening is offered.

Daniel: Yes. It clarified another point that I was thinking of. I was referring to other- than-mission people who are coming to the conference. Should we allow them to help in the planning, or is this irrelevant?

Malvantra: Your work to make this event come about is naturally an extension of your desire to serve your brethren, to make available your fellowship with each other. In this motivation I would acknowledge your comment that your friends' desires are to be factored in. You are the planners, and it is your freewill to decide the extent of those who are planning with you. We are not concerned this way, for we will work with each and every one at all times during the period of your assembly. What you do you do for each other. What we do will be concurrent. Make allowance for suggestion. Be wise as to your ability to manage feedback. I am hopeful that you have within you the means to accomplish this.

Evelyn: I understood your remarks to be focused on the service group. I'm glad to hear you have been watching over our efforts. Most of these projects are about spreading the Urantia Book. I find I'm not all that driven to put a lot of energy in attempting to spread it around. I'm taking your words to be: go ahead and jump into something that sounds reasonably good for the sake of working with each other and let these projects evolve. They will take shape, and then we'll see how to participate. We are not to be concerned with defining who we are so much as discovering.

In the outwork of the spirit ministry much results by preparing yourself first, stepping into the process, thereby manifesting result. It is not necessary for you to clearly know, for in the work ahead what you are able to know is only a short aspect. The longer range attainment and ministry is quite beyond your comprehension now, due largely to the limitation of your experience. This will change.

Elyon: Greetings. I am here to return your request for [[understanding]] in your [[consideration]] of the [[ascent]] of your [[brothers and sisters]]. No one is ever restricted from [[growth]] by any other. The effect of [[quarantine]] will make [[growth]], in effect, like swimming in mud.

It is noted that no [[individual]] passes out of [[the system]] without a complete [[understanding]] of the ramifications of the [[rebellion]]. [[The rebellion]] has made for one huge lesson for all [[Satania]]ns. This [[comprehension]] is not complete by passing beyond to the higher congregations. Therefore, many [[beings]] have not taken [[graduation]] willfully so as to extract the greatest results [[attainable]].

It is not a restriction, but it is taught, [[encouraged]], that all fully realize the significance of what [[transpired]]. Do not lose the [[opportunity]] by moving away. There is rarely an occurrence of this sort, one that is not sought, one that is not proffered. But once it occurs much [[attention]] is given. Those who can [[align]] with the [[plans]] of [[the universe]] are [[motivated]], with a [[duty]] that overshadows their [[personal]] goals, to right the wrong.

It is much like your [[behavior]] when [[busy]] about your tasks and you come upon a burning house. All else stops while you tend to the [[emergency]]. I [[hope]] I have [[illuminated]] for you what [[transpired]] here in [[this system]]. Are you content?

Simeon: Yes. I [[understand]] that there was no restriction in passing beyond [[the system]], but voluntarily the [[beings]] from this system chose to stay and [[understand]] fully the ramifications of [[rebellion]] and help to clean up the mess. Is that what you are saying?

Elyon: Yes, and though I have not actually checked the register of ascendant, I would venture to guess that most elected to be here to see it through. As I have said, it is a rare [[opportunity]] to serve [[Michael]] in this [[manner]].

Elyon: This is something that does not have to await leaving [[this planet]]. [[Michael]] has begun a greater [[participation]] and [[presence]] here. Though when beheld at the seat of [[Salvington]] his [[glory]] is grand, do know that in his [[embrace]] in your time of [[worship]], you have made the same and equally valid [[connection]]. The [[spiritual]] [[quality]] of [[contact]] will never change, though the [[morontia]] [[vision]] is remarkably [[different]].

The [[momentum]] of [[Satania|this system]] is back into the current of this [[universe]], and you are among the oarsmen who are steering the vessel toward its landing.
