Michael: (Allene): In answer to your question earlier, It would be good that each one of you continue to develop yourselves, learn more as you can about love and to share. It is good that you come together. You will gather more lambs unto me. As I have told you, I will be here for each that you bring to me. You now can rest assured. Allene, now you know, I will be here for each of them. (I'm not hearing the exact words, but I am picking up that each one of us will know when the time comes, what we can do. There is nothing to force ourselves or push ourselves into something we will know. Move forward gently, move in love, let your heart open up. You are doing well, my children. You are very precious to me. Each one of you is blossoming like a flower if you could only see how your petals are unfolding. Each has his own beauty. Each has his own uniqueness. You are each doing much to help me. And, in the days ahead, as the strength of your commitment grows, love from your heart pours forward, you will know the ways in which you can be of service.

Allene:umhmm
Allene:umhmm
Lise:Michael, this is Lise:, and sometimes when I think I am speaking with someone from...a feeling of love, that it could possible be misinterpreted as being naive or weak?

Michael: (Patije) Go forth each day, mindful that I am at your shoulder. Do everything with that in mind. That you are doing it to please me. That you are doing it for your higher good, that you are doing it for the Father's business, that you are doing it to sow the seeds upon this planet of what light and life is. Do not concern yourself with other's criticism or other's viewpoints. They may be coming from out-of-balance emotions, from a place of distrust, from a background of dysfunctional reactions. Know that if you hold within your heart your true values, and you are moving in love energy and you are conscious of my being with you, then you will know that you need not be concerned, and while I tell you this, I tell you, also, that I am not here to judge you. I am here to give you confidence. I am here to give you comfort, as you go about your daily experience. Will that help you to understand?

And, we will be [[faithful]]. We do have the faith. We do [[believe]]. We do [[accept]].
Michael: (Allene) This my child, is what brought me with so much [[affection]], to this [[group]]. (static)
I know I don't have to say names. I feel the need to be inclusive tonight. I don't know if it is appropriate or not to bring this up to you, Michael, but should we open this group to others from the Monday night study group? (pause) I have felt that some may feel left out. (static bad here again) (long silence) Better yet, can we take the teaching group to them? (long silence)
Patije: I know I don't have to say names. I feel the need to be inclusive tonight.

Patije:They are present, but we...
Lise:I mean saying it, acknowledging it as a group...
Lise:I mean saying it, acknowledging it as a [[group]]...
Michael: (Allene) This will come about. Go gently, My [[children]]. BE patient. As your [[love]] encircuits you and draws you closer you will become [[stronger]] with the strength of [[love]]. As this increases you will be able to do much. Do not be impatient. do not [[force]] this. These things will gently come about. You will know. You are headed in the right direction. [[Events]] will lead you to know the [[timing]] of the next step.
Patije:I yearn for you to be teaching all of our classes. I am certainly willing to be your [[tool]], your [[expression]]...
I am very pleased with what I see. I assure you that I will stay with this group.
Michael: (Allene) I am very pleased with what I see. I [[assure]] you that I will stay with this [[group]].
Julie:This is Michael?
Julie:This is Michael?
Allene:Yes.
Allene:Yes.
Patije:Do you have a lesson or a message for us, Michael, to enable us to be better servants? (long silence)
Patije:Do you have a lesson or a [[message]] for us, Michael, to enable us to be better servants? (long silence)
Michael: What would, perhaps, be most helpful to all of you at this present time, is to [[remember]] that I am with you, I am with each one of you. You may [[feel]] [[free]] to bring your burdens to me. You all have [[teachers]], that also may [[assist]] you. It would be best to [[concentrate]] on staying in [[balance]] right now. You have many of us to help you. The [[energies]] of the [[Mother Spirit|Creative Mother Spirit]], as you call her. Her energies are also present. It would be best for all of you now to [[learn]] to use the help of all of us, the [[tools]] that have been provided for you, to stay in [[balance]]. It is truly [[difficult]] to be loving. the level of loving that you wish to [[achieve]] when you are out-of- [[balance]]. As you go about your daily [[activities]], keep this in [[mind]]. See how you do. Do not [[judge]] yourselves when you catch yourself off [[balance]]. Use the [[tools]]. Call on us. Get yourself back in balance. This must be [[achieved]] before your [[love]] [[energies]] will be able to operate freely. This I [[think]] will keep you all rather [[busy]]. [[Remember]] that we are with you always. Not just, when you meet in a [[group]], not just at the end of the day. We are ever present. None of you are ever [[alone]]. (pause) It is through your [[free will]] that you are able to choose to move out of any imbalances, you are able to choose to seek us, you are able to use what you have. This is your free will. This is your [[choice]]. The choice is always yours. These choices present themselves almost constantly to you, throughout your day.
Allene: This you'll like, Lise. ([[laughter]]) As you move up the [[spiral]], your [[Thought Adjuster]] will play a more active role.
Lise: you saw this in your meeting this week. More and more as you step aside with your [[attention]]...
Lise::I don't know....oh! I think I understand what you are . ..I have a question for Michael. I realize that I am learning, but I try, I feel like . ..in my mind, no problem; I feel working towards love energy not really for work.....(static unclear) but as far as transmitting, I don't hear. In order to participate, will that come later, or am I not still enough? I don't hear.

Michael:Did you not participate tonight with Aflana?
Michael:Did you not participate tonight with Aflana?
Lise::And, I do hear a little bit. I guess it will come, more and more.

Patije:You must explore your responses and know that hearing is not always as you think of hearing. This is an intuitive knowing.

Lise:Right
Lise:Right
Patije:Some describe it as hearing, some describe it as seeing...but it just is.

Lise:Ok.
Lise:Ok.
Michael: (Allene) When your teacher, Aflana, says "You know that you know." in the stillness, you will come to understand more of what Aflana is saying to you. You all find this somewhat amusing when you hear Aflana say "YOU know that you know" There is much more depth to this statement that you all have realized.

Lise::Well, I think we do realize there is depth, Look at me contradicting her! But, it is a way of recognizing Aflana when we hear that statement.

Allene:Well, this is Allene. Other teachers have said that too.
Allene:Well, this is Allene. Other teachers have said that too.
Allene:We tend to associate it with Aflana.
Allene:We tend to associate it with Aflana.
Patije:You will feel a lightness, a happiness, almost a flirty lilting voice. Aflana seldom talks like we do. She always ends her sentences sort of up in the air - like leading your thoughts to continue beyond her words.

Allene: I picked up something else from Michael, too: "How important it is to learn to stay in balance, for not only will we (you?) be better able to be of service but we (you?) will learn much more about the stillness. It is difficult to reach the level of stillness when one is out-of-balance." This really must be the lesson for tonight. (long, long, silence)

Patije: I would like to thank Michael for something rather personal, but not personal either. My daughter who is involved in the Pentecostal church somewhere in the suburbs of Reading, PA, has begun her journaling and writing her letters from God and I am delighted that she shared this with me. It makes my Mother's heart feel very warm. But even more than that is the excitement that this is branching out - outside of the Urantia communities into fundamental communities. She of course, is being directed by the Bible, where we are directed to go to the Urantia Book for our text. But it is so delightful to know that this is working in harmony with other methods. And, I thank you very much, Michael!

Lise:I commented to Allene about a similar situation about knowing people who are doing wonderful, wonderful things, who are probably never be involved in Urantia. It is on all different levels. It is love...I am hearing it all the time. More and more people doing things for their fellow man. It is just incredible some of the things I've heard! Particularly in my employment.
