===Opening===
 +
Evanson (Jonathan TR): Hello, Evanson speaking. You are all such forward looking individuals, and I am grateful to be in your company. You hardly realize the benefit your efforts to grow have brought you. I did not pursue such activities while in human flesh. You have made your lives simple in comparison because of the peace and surety it has brought you. You have discovered that the striving is not painful but rewarding, and that change is like exercise; it may feel strenuous but it increases strength.

===Lesson===
 +
I wish to encourage you to become more sensitive to your spiritual field that surrounds you. Each of you has recognized your field of energy of love and light. I encourage you to determinedly work with that energy in social situations and in your working arrangements. The power of positive energy overrides negative energy. It is more easily identified with by another, and you draw allies by projecting such uplifting vibration. Your stature as an ascending being, your presence of mind and heart, penetrates into the soul of another, and it draws forth an encouraging impulse whereby another finds their own presence and connection. It is so subtle that no word you say or touch pinpoints what is felt but it is recognized. Try in the day or two ahead of you to be, as you might say, in the driver's seat and work with this understanding, for your society is entering into difficult times, and it will be important for the workers of divine light to project with power. I have finished my words. Thank you.

Machiventa (Mark): Greetings, I am Machiventa. I would spend a few moments in discussion of the paradigm you encounter that you refer to as being volunteers. On your world it is unusual and rare for volunteers, individuals whose desire it is to work toward common goals for no compensation in a time when you have the term "time is money", and therefore you are choosing to allocate your resources, and volunteering represents your choosing to spend some of your resources, your time, in pursuit of goals or ideals that will bring you no direct monetary compensation.

In that sense volunteering represents a very noble and divine trait of looking to allocate your resources toward avenues of service and not toward avenues of self advancement. Just as in this circuit we form at this very moment that we all have chosen, we all have volunteered our time to come together in this forum and, having come to this of our own freewill choice, this offering that we have made represents our higher selves, our more divine motivation in that we are allocating the resource of our time toward those pursuits not of this material world but rather for idealistic, spiritual gains instead.

Line 35: Line 29:     
We will meet you on whatever terms you request. But there will arise this question of suitability for greater audiences, and it will be up to you to formulate your response as to how to deal with various levels of understanding. You have my commitment to work with you in whatever format you see as proper at the time. No doubt it will be proper if it is your will and in alignment with the will of the Father. These are my words, even my suggestions, for this hour. Thank you for hearing them. I open the floor.

===Closing===
* Veronica (Jonathan): Children of God, I greet you. This is Veronica. You are the luminaries of the great and vast truth that appears to be obscure in the minds of your fellows. You are repositories for the ocean of love that pours itself upon the rocky shores. You are the goodness of God enlivened, animated. Behold yourselves, for you once sought to penetrate the veil of the wholly beyond, and now you are the very indication of its reality. You are great in your humbleness, but you are also the greatness. Settle yourself ever deeper into the conviction of your universal position.

Though the reflective surfaces of your physical world show you a form of animal origin, deep within you is your lastingness, your divinity. Let it erupt forth; be blinding. It is time for Urantia to explode in light, to be set afire in love. It is time. As you accept yourself you accept the purpose of God for you. The revelation to this world comes by way of your action. Go forward. Be He who resides inside.
