* To the interest of all who would hear in openness, I come to you with love. I thank you for gathering. It is a pleasure to speak with you in the service of Michael. We come to offer guidance, insight, and support. Our ever on-going mission is to bring you to the understanding of this Creator Son, this sovereign ruler of this universe, and through him to the understanding of our Father in Paradise. We also come to bring you to the personal awareness of your inner guide, your Father within, to the extent that you can understand Him. We try to bring your communion and contact more clear.

To the interest of all who would hear in openness, I come to you with [[love]]. I [[thank]] you for gathering. It is a [[pleasure]] to speak with you in the service of [[Michael]]. We come to offer [[guidance]], [[insight]], and [[support]]. Our ever on-going [[mission]] is to bring you to the [[understanding]] of this [[Creator Son]], this [[Master Son|sovereign ruler]] of [[this universe]], and through him to the [[understanding]] of [[our Father]] in [[Paradise]]. We also come to bring you to the personal [[awareness]] of your [[inner guide]], y[[our Father]] within, to the extent that you can [[understand]] Him. We try to bring your [[communion]] and [[contact]] more clear.

I am excited for the progress that I see within this group and among all throughout this mission. We are moving with all the authority that we have been given by Michael to bring the change to a better way, to understanding, to love, to hope, and to caring. As we teach in turn so do we hope that you would teach as well by your actions, by your understanding, and with love. The intellectual understanding of God has its place and is needed for well-rounded understanding. But too many have relied on attempting this for too long. The focus must be shifted to the spirit awareness of the Father and the ministry that flows from the Trinity. I care to give you this message because I truly hope that you will see the perspective that we would wish for you to take. In giving focus to your understanding of spiritual ideals, learn knowledge of God but also step out to experience God. As a whole you are doing this more and more throughout your lives, taking the chance to see what is not perceptible to the eye. Look for your Father everywhere, for that is where He is, within, without, around, above...omnipotent.

Hello, I am Elyon, your guide to understanding. Thank you for coming tonight. I would be open for questions.

Hello, I am Elyon, your [[guide]] to [[understanding]]. Thank you for coming tonight. I would be open for [[questions]].

Question #1: Greetings Elyon, I'd like to introduce you to our guests this evening, Harold and Angel Holloway, and Will Venard from Bonners Ferry, Idaho.

Question #1: Greetings Elyon, I'd like to introduce you to our guests this evening, Harold and Angel Holloway, and Will Venard from [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonner's_Ferry,_Idaho Bonners Ferry, Idaho].

Elyon: Greetings. It is a pleasure for you to be here. I have been following your lives somewhat since your seeking began. And it is good to speak with you this evening.

Elyon: Greetings. It is a [[pleasure]] for you to be here. I have been following your lives somewhat since your [[seeking]] began. And it is [[good]] to speak with you this evening.

Question#1: Last Sunday you said I was not far from a teacher, and that it was up to me to discern the name. I am not at the point of grasping that name though I think I have a clue, but I will hold out for confirmation. In meditation Tuesday morning I felt the presence of that teacher and yourself, in the faint comment "I am here and Elyon is here with me". Could you please elaborate on that and offer some anticipation of what might be next?

Question#1: Last Sunday you said I was not far from a [[teacher]], and that it was up to me to [[discern]] the name. I am not at the [[point]] of grasping that name though I think I have a clue, but I will hold out for [[confirmation]]. In [[meditation]] Tuesday [[morning]] I felt the [[presence]] of that teacher and yourself, in the faint comment "I am here and Elyon is here with me". Could you please elaborate on that and offer some [[anticipation]] of what might be next?

Elyon: In your time of listening we come to observe and to attempt connections. As subtle as they may be at first they will increasingly grow stronger as you give more time. Your guide is there for you. If you choose the time to listen, he will come on a moment's notice that you give. Experience the assuredness in your heart that your understanding is growing clearer as you allow it. You will have the opportunity to converse within a very short time. I encourage you to take those opportunities as they come. Reach out, for we are reaching to you as well as all of you. Does this help you?

Question: Thank you. I will work on overcoming hesitancy as well as upholding the value of clarity. Thank you.

Question: Thank you. I will work on overcoming [[hesitancy]] as well as upholding the [[value]] of [[clarity]]. Thank you.

Elyon: You are welcome.

Elyon: You are [[welcome]].

Question #2: I had an interesting day today at work. I had a couple employees quit, and they sighted personal problems with my management techniques. The feeling I get is that I haven't reached out to them in a spiritual way. I had distanced myself from these particular employees. I felt at a loss as to how to correct that with these people or anyone else in the future. Do you have any insights on how anyone could reach out to people in an antagonistic situation between employer and employee when it's already difficult to bridge that gap?

Elyon: There are many difficulties that arise out of situations where one has [[authority]]. From two [[viewpoints]] there is often a lack of [[understanding]] in seeing where the other comes from. In reaching out to these, you may not be able to correct this situation, and there may be a shifting of [[ideals]]. With this, how did the [[hostilities]] arise?

Question#2: It seems like it built up over a long period of [[time]] with a particular [[person]], feeling that he could do a better job of running jobs than I could. He cited several [[mistakes]] that had happened on jobs. I thought that mistakes always happen; there are always oversights that need correcting; it's [[inevitable]]. He'd be very unforgiving of those things. He also felt like a [[spokesman]] for our crew. If there was a gripe going around the crew, he would take it on personally to come to me, to protect the guys, to defend them. [[Hostilities]] grew over time. There was poor [[communication]], things not getting [[expressed]]. The [[feedback]] that I got is that I haven't been the type of employer where I [[compliment]] my employees. I tend to come on the job not knowing what's going on. I would give [[criticism]] and people took [[offense]] at that, which I [[understand]].

Elyon: Do you sense that you would like to open more with them?

Elyon: Do you sense that you would like to open more with them?

Question: I'd like to have a meaningful relationship with my employees that felt more warm than antagonistic.

Question: I'd like to have a [[meaningful]] [[relationship]] with my employees that felt more warm than [[antagonistic]].

Elyon: Then make the attempt at this without worrying how it will be viewed. The first step is always best when it is one that is taken for understanding. This man felt within that he may have been the one to represent the faults that the workers had seen. Which may have caused discomfort and a negative reaction within you. It is quite possible that your working relationship cannot be repaired, but as an individual you might reach out by either a letter or a phone call and just extend any understanding that you can find from the situation and offer no negative feelings. Do you feel that you could have him back? Or does this occurrence seem to be better for the working aspect?

Question: If we didn't have a suitable replacement, we could take him back, but unless things change in our relationship it wouldn't be a comfortable situation. It may be better for this parting to have taken place.

Elyon: Then if you truly feel this way, then that may be so. But still within yourself, you may reach out as a farewell and offer any feelings of regret that you may have had in the situation. Just to let him know that you did care. Does this answer you?

Question: That seems like a very reasonable response that I will take to heart. Question #3: Recently I had some very insightful ideas come to me which led to a very fruitful day. Was this part of the mission or something that I generated myself?

Elyon: In your awareness you can come to realize the presence of many personalities as teachers. I do not know specifically of this occurrence but there are also guides, angels, and of course, the inner presence of your Father that can impart knowledge. You seek to understand in your life the Father and the ways to bring this personally to yourself. With your willingness it will come. In the beginnings as already for you are allowing yourself to open to the possibilities of connection. Your guide will come to you when you are fully prepared. But know that this entire mission is to bring you to the awareness of God through the Father, the Son, by Michael, and in the Spirit. So as you turn your thoughts to the Father, you open the channels for the love to flow from Him, through His mission, to you. And sometimes that form of love may materialize into contact.

You seek to [[understand]] in your [[life]] [[the Father]] and the ways to bring this personally to yourself. With your willingness it will come. In the beginnings as already for you are allowing yourself to open to the [[possibilities]] of [[connection]]. Your ''guide'' will come to you when you are fully [[prepared]].

Elyon: Thank you for asking.

Elyon: Thank you for asking.

Elyon: Your want is noted and [[realize]] that art in all its forms of high [[intent]] is somewhat [[inspired]] by the [[presence]] of the [[spirit]] around you. When one looks upon a [[picture]] of a beautiful landscape, there is a certain inner chord that may be struck to them for [[understanding]]. It is a recognition of [[beauty]], which is an [[attribute]] of [[the Father]]. So the endeavors are open for this and know that worldwide there is much [[assistance]] for the spiritual beauty to be [[expressed]] through art whether it be through [[writing]], [[music]], [[painting]], whatever form it may take. And there are some within [[this mission]] who are working with [[guides]] that are suited for these [[purposes]]. You, in your willingness to be given a teacher for yourself, have [[received]] this already. It is time that will bring [[understanding]]. [[Dedication]] to [[the Father]] in [[prayer]] and [[communion]] will facilitate the [[connection]]. By [[listening]], [[focusing]] it all away and bringing yourself to the state of just listening for a [[response]], give yourself this [[time]] and you will feel it. The [[guide]] that you [[receive]] will be suited to your [[personality]]. And the [[expression]] that you give from this can come in any [[form]] that you wish. For that is why we are here, to offer you [[guidance]] in whatever form of searching you would take.

Question:4 Yes, it does. I want to clarify. Should I be looking for a direct connection with my guide for this insight; or should I be looking for my own personal growth and producing things that I see coming out of that?

Question:4 Yes, it does. I want to [[clarify]]. Should I be looking for a direct [[connection]] with my guide for this [[insight]]; or should I be looking for my own [[personal growth]] and producing things that I see coming out of that?

Elyon: Both, work on your inner growth for this connection will come as a result of your attempts at communion with your Father. When you go to the stillness, take the time to focus your love to the Father. Offer all your thankfulness and then bring yourself to a state where you can best listen for a response, while the Father will surely impart His wisdom in whatever way He can. And know that we do not infringe upon your connection with Him. It is through your willingness to understand more fully the Father that we will be allowed to come through this connection to you.

Does this [[clarify]]?

Question#4: Yes, it does very much. Is there a teacher that is attempting to reach our group and if so, how can we help?

Question#4: Yes, it does very much. Is there a [[teacher]] that is attempting to reach our group and if so, how can we help?

Elyon: By being open which also answers the first part of your question. For as you reach out, it is recorded of your desire and the motions are already going forth for the designation to be given. And it has. To whom specifically I cannot say, for we will always as teachers look for the possibilities of connection in time. If all strive within my group, then I could connect with each and every individual to some extent personally. But for some, call it chance, luck of the draw, whatever you will, they have the capacity to hear, and this is not necessarily a spiritual reflection on their personality. But it just seems that some are easily suited for reception. With the adjustments being made ever and on going, all who desire will receive in time. So listen, for the attempts are being made and it will come through to you.

Elyon: You are welcome.

Elyon: You are welcome.

Elyon: I know you may be beginning to dislike that [[word]], but it is and it ever will be the most crucial element of [[this mission]]: [[patience]]. But you are not so far as you would think from [[understanding]] . You just need to continue to [[listen]]. Reach out to [[the Father]] with [[love]]. Offer your [[thoughts]] and offer yourself then [[listen]]. As hard as it may be to drown out the thoughts and all the [[worries]] and excesses that run through--(tape flipped, some lost.)--that you have in your [[life]]. (noise)...diffuse and work on the [[diffusion]] of the outlying worries to the [[focus]] of [[love]] on [[the Father]]. By doing this you create the [[channel]] which will bring the awareness through. Many times it begins with the [[feelings]] you have. Let them happen and when they happen, do not close them off by trying to [[analyze]] the [[feeling]]. Just let the feeling happen and [[listen]] through all that is occurring. Listen, and as the thoughts start to flow, don't shut them off again as so many do, for it is so easy to mistake the impressions. Just take them one [[word]], one [[fragment]], or one sentence at a time and say them, [[write]] them, record them, whatever [[method]] suits. But above all [[listen]] with [[patience]].

Yes, thank you.

Yes, thank you.

Elyon: You are welcome and let me extend my thanks to you for your dedication. For it is very difficult for one to continue with something when they sense the growth not occurring as they would like. Just be open and thank you.

Would there be any more questions tonight? "It doesn't look like it."

Would there be any more questions tonight? "It doesn't look like it."

Elyon: Then let me say that I thoroughly enjoy you, all of you who come to these gatherings for it offers me the chance to grow beyond what I am already. To see the patterns of understanding that you take and the searching, the seeking, the desire, and the attempt to move forward. From the teaching viewpoint it is a satisfactory process. In understanding focus yourself always to the Father and the Trinity. The understanding comes from your seeking here. Thank you. Good night.
