* Elyon (Jonathan TR): I greet you warmly. This is your friendly instructor Elyon. I have some thoughts I wish to share with you; they apply to your discussion today of worship and service as two sides of the same coin. I would bracket this series of comments with the word "preparedness", for one side of the worship/service coin prepares you for the other side. You know that the feelings that well up inside from the experience of the presence of the Father are supercharging toward contacting fellows in your life bringing to them a relief through service, an inspiration through service, that they might also be supercharged, having their needs addressed and discovering the actions of the grace of God through His ministering children.

Also I am sure you each have noticed how natural it is to give way to feelings of worship, thanksgiving, and gratitude to Father for having been involved in an act of service that has brought benefit to another. The enjoyment derived from a successful ministry naturally is wont to flow back to the source of all divine ministry. This I hope illustrates how one, either worship or service, prepares one for the other. To feel best prepared to minister to the needs of another it is good to develop more deeply the experience of fellowship, partnership, and presence of the Divine Indweller. The Father is omnipresent, and this omnipresence is not only spatial, that is, His presence is not limited just to the expanse of infinity. He is likewise omnipresent in an eternal sense, having presence now as past and future.

Evelyn: I like and understand what you are saying, but I don't often feel it. I take it on faith and will work on detecting it, that is, sharing with my Thought Adjuster in an act of service. It feels one-way-; I don't feel engaged with spirit. I feel like I send up a "thank you" or a "what do I do?". I can't say it feels like a dialogue.

* Elyon: I honor your effort in, as you put it, sending up your thank you, for it acknowledges the reality in the presence and the guidance of spirit in your life. But the phrasing itself inherently instills distance. That, good as it is, can also include "we did a good job", for that is inclusive. It assumes, even if you are unable to sense that you work in tandem with spirit, it is more of a team cheer rather than an expression of gratitude to the coach. Neither position is wrong, but the second that I have asserted helps to include you and spirit in the one operation. However, be not concerned over feeling; feeling results. The thrill of service is not the end to be sought for the exhilaration.

The thrill of service is not to be avoided either; actually the thrill is the precursor to service, for it is that divine enthusiasm working in and through you. It will not always be in the form of emotion. It can be the recognition of a need and the understanding that one is capable of being of assistance. The motivation that rises at the time is that thrill, for it is activating. To be thrilled is not so much to be tickled, as it is to be propelled, to be taken to one's feet. I hope this has provided some assistance.

Tom: In one transmission they spoke about the "second phase" of the Teaching Mission. Could you expand on that?

* Elyon: The mission began by the emplacement upon this world and others of teachers like myself who were trained to provide training for the many upon the worlds who were willing to respond, to take in the training, to incorporate the training, and become qualified as trainers. That phase is well underway, in the ripening process. It entails activities in the Michael correction time that are broader than the movement of the Teaching Mission as you understand it in its social and networking context, for the Teaching Mission is an outreach by the visiting teachers to many aspects of the cultures upon each of these worlds.

Phase Two approaches, but Phase One has not finished its full cycle. Phase Two is anticipated as that time when the human beings who have been in training are aware of their responsibilities and willing to act in regard to their responsibilities, but not simply singly, rather, knowing full well of the experience and preparedness of many others, and for those others to be just as aware of your own preparedness. It will become less of isolated individual actions and more a collective awareness of a group effort. But I must define what I mean by group. I do not mean that you will organize into a body that acts as one, but rather, you will understand how your efforts are integrating with the efforts of others, and they, too. It will be cooperative and supportive rather than haphazard. There will be deliberateness in response to what others have undertaken by yourself so as to contribute mutually.

Tom: It poses as many questions as it answers. I suppose we are still in Phase One, and Phase One and Phase Two will go along concurrently for some time, right?

* Elyon: That is correct. There is an overlapping, for there are pockets of readiness around the globe, and there are areas of deficiency. But one cannot wait for the unripe fruit to ripen before picking the ripe fruit. So, certain clusters will begin the second phase of activity while others catch up.

Tom: Thank you for your comments.

Tom: Thank you for your comments.

* Elyon: You are welcome. I would release from this engagement at this time and give you my love. Share it with all. At any point in your ascent to the Father there is a degree of preparedness for action with the Father. There are a few milestones in your ascension which, in a sense, function like a diploma; one is fusion, where you have a marked sense of accomplishment. But more often along the way you must use faith and trust, knowing that you have a degree of training accomplished that will be of benefit to others. Take care..
