===Opening===
Good evening my [[friends]]! Again, this is Monmacion, and how [[happy]] I am to witness you [[sharing]] amidst these [[summer]] nights, nearing the end of this term of your [[season]] of [[warmth]] in which so much is exploding in [[growth]], vibrant in its [[manifestation]] of [[our Father]]’s life [[transmitted]] in and through every form of [[Creation]].
===Lesson===
===='''''[[Turbulence]]''''', '''''[[Transition]]'''''====
You dwell, of course as you know, in this realm undergoing a [[season]] of [[turmoil]], a season of [[transition]] from one [[phase]] of living to another, and each of you this evening have [[shared]] some of the [[ordeals]] that are your particular [[personal]] [[share]] of this [[turbulence]] [[experienced]] in the [[course]] of this [[transition]]. We rely upon you to be for us, in lieu of our [[presence]] [[physically]] upon your [[planet]], to be the [[actual]] hand extending [[mercy]] and [[understanding]] to those who would lose their [[equilibrium]], and who might [[surrender]] to [[fear]] and [[panic]]. You know these [[difficulties]] are but [[Father]]’s way of redirecting and reconfiguring the life of any one [[person]], and as well, any one [[Inhabited Worlds|world]].
===='''''[[Adjustment]]''''', '''''[[Magisterial Mission]]'''''====
Of course, these worlds recovering from [[Lucifer Rebellion|rebellion]] and the ensuing [[isolation]] are moving forward now as a [[group]] and in greater tandem with all [[Inhabited worlds|other worlds]], and in [[part]] this accounts for the [[turbulence]]. You have indeed stepped onto a more rapidly moving [[pace]], and you are being brought up to [[speed]] as it were, and the [[adjustment]] is one you can [[appreciate]]; it is [[difficult]]. And yet all [[efforts]] are being extended. Myself, in this [[context]] of [[preparation]] for the [[Magisterial Mission]], [[engaging]] you and any others along with my [[colleagues]] who would be preparing the [[soil]] of the [[hearts]] of [[human being]]s throughout [[Urantia|your world]] to [[embrace]] the [[truth]] wherever it is to be found, to [[rest]] in the [[knowledge]] of the [[truth]] of who we are as beloved children of [[God]] that [[transcends]] any apparent indifference that [[Nature]] or the works of [[Man]], that may seem indifferent if not actually [[hostile]] to your very [[being]], or your continued [[existence]] upon [[this Urantia|planet]].
===='''''[[Catastrophism]]''''', '''''[[Support]]'''''====
These [[cataclysms]] of [[time]]; these are the [[things]] with which you have grown familiar, for over the span of your lifetimes, you have incorporated more [[change]] than could be [[imagined]] by many that preceded you, and as well, many of those who will succeed you. For this [[transition]] [[phase]] is just that. It is a time of [[creative]] destruction when those [[things]] that no longer serve are falling away. And yet, here you are, standing firm in [[faith]] amidst all of the uncertainties, as [[confident]] as your [[faith]] will afford, knowing that you are being [[supported]] by many others. And so, we can only ask and [[confidently]] [[trust]] that you will likewise extend this sense of [[support]], this sense of [[compassion]] and [[understanding]], whereas without such, the harshness of apparent [[cruelty]] is only exacerbated. But what a great [[ministry]] for [[individuals]] to '''be''' a source of [[encouragement]] and upliftment, to extend this [[effort]] that has been ongoing for some time to lift you and your fellows up in [[spirit]] so as to be able to tread the [[turbulent]] [[water]]s through which we pass. These are the [[emblems]] of the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_40_-_The_Ascending_Sons_of_God#40:5._MORTALS_OF_TIME_AND_SPACE children of God], and these are the [[fruits of the spirit]] that are the [[treasures]] of life. It is incumbent upon each of us to [[nurture]] these, to foster them wherever we can, under any [[circumstance]].
===='''''[[Faith]]'''''====
And so, where there is [[fear]], let us cultivate the [[confidence]] of [[faith]], and where there is [[injury]] such as you have [[absorbed]] yourselves in your [[personal]] lives, in your workplaces, we can acknowledge the [[reality]] that we are absorbing and [[sharing]] it with [[the Father|Father]] knowing it is absorbed in his vast [[resources]] of limitless [[love]]. It is this [[treasure]] that your world is seeking amidst the [[turbulence]]. It is this treasure of [[character]], this [[presence]] of [[mind]] that is what makes the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_40_-_The_Ascending_Sons_of_God#40:5._MORTALS_OF_TIME_AND_SPACE children of God] so valuable in this [[moment]]. In every workstation upon every location throughout [[Urantia|your world]], this is what will lift the world and will [[lead]] the way.

For as I mentioned in our [[2011-07-20-Monmacion|last session]], as these bridges so called are [[Fire|burning]] all around you, what will be left standing are those of you who stand upon the [[foundation]] of [[faith]]. No; not a [[faith]] that is just [[blind]] acquiescence to some [[tradition]] or some notion of [[convention]] or [[culture]], or of any [[religion]]. It is the [[actual]] [[source]] of [[religion]] as it is [[understood]] in your world. You [[exhibit]] this [[quality]] in your [[confidence]], and should you fall short, should you find yourselves extended beyond your [[capacity]], you know where the [[reserve]] is to be found, and you know the [[practice]] of returning to this [[space]] where such reserves are without [[limit]].
===='''''[[Humanity]]'''''====
[[Forgive]] yourselves when you [[exhibit]] your [[humanity]]. It is just such a [[human]] [[face]] that we seek to show the world, one acutely [[conscious]] of the human [[limitation]] and [[simultaneously]] [[confident]] in the limitless [[presence]] of [[our Father]] within you. It is this conjoined [[action]] of your [[Thought Adjusterspirit]] and your [[personality]], your [[divine]] [[identity]] and your [[human]] [[person]] that is the [[union]] that we seek to build and build upon.
===Closing===
So my [[friends]], let me keep short our session this evening, for again, I [[observe]] your [[signs]] of [[Fatigue|weariness]] having labored throughout the day in [[earnest]], [[assisting]] so many others in carrying their own burden, [[teaching]] others, [[encouraging]] others, [[counseling]] others, and contending with others at times. You know that you have many who [[work]] with you, and I would [[encourage]] you to get to know each of these [[spirit]] [[personalities]] who are part of your [[personal]] team, and when we gather [[together]] as we do now, all of these [[personalities]] are present. It is quite a [[composite]], even with small [[groups]], [[configurations]] of just a few [[human being]]s on the ground. So, go in [[faith]] and be [[confident]] that many walk with you, and will be working with you ever more closely as we [[proceed]] through this [[phase]] of [[transition]].

Good night my [[friends]].

Students: Good night and thank you!
