Prayer: I would align myself with spirit by petitioning our Divine  
Parents and thanking them in particular for these gifts, these gifts  
of each other that are so magnificent. When something happens like,  
you lose a friend, it really comes home for us to appreciate the  
magnitude of each of us that you have given to the rest of us. They  
all are in some way the reflection of the Father's love to the others   
where an expression of that divinity to those around us. I think that  
is what we sense when we have a loss like this, there is a gap in our  
perception of this gift of goodness, our ability to see this  
expression of the divine through this particular individual. So that  
is what I attempted to remind people at this memorial is that feeling  
of loss we were feeling was because there was so much goodness there,  
that we truly appreciated the gift and we can never fail to recognize  
that in all of our relationships, we are that gift. We all have the  
power to change the world. Rick [Giles] changed my world, he changed  
many peoples world. We will never be the same and we each do that for  
people around us by just being a manifestation of the Father's love.  
What greater gift in the material plane than to give the gift of one  
to the other. Thank you Divine Parents for this gift. May we realize  
and be in awareness of the significance of this, not just when they  
are gone but each moment that we are privileged to have them. Help us  
to make it so in our lives. Thank you.

Michael: [Mark] I would pick up the opportunity, the invitation that  
you offer, I am Michael and my dear associate is in recognition that I  
have been about a great deal lately, at least in conjunction with our  
relationship. I have felt that I needed to be close in these times and  
so I have made myself readily available to be summoned at a moments  
notice as it were, to join in the group even as we enjoy now, to bring  
my peace and grace and add it to the totality of the equation that we  
form at this time.

Whenever my children are in distress, I am keenly aware and I am drawn  
to such occasion as any one of you would be seeing one of your  
brethren in distress. There is an overwhelming natural tendency to  
want to swoop in, rush in and be of some assistance as a difficult  
time occurs to another. You witness their distress and you are drawn  
to try to alleviate it in whatever way you can. If they are in need of  
medical attention then that becomes your priority. If they are  
emotionally distressed then your desire turns to one of camaraderie  
and companionship. If they are distressed by loss, there is a great  
desire to reinforce the idea that they are not alone and that this  
loss is merely an aspect of the whole, to provide some perspective so  
that the individual who is in distress may realize the order of  
magnitude of the event.

The human family is a reactive bunch and when they encounter life's  
misfortunes or mishaps, they tend to react and perhaps even overreact  
with an unwarranted level of concern and interaction. I call you all  
to witness that in your experience with growing in the spiritual  
plane, this growth has provided you all with an enhanced perspective,  
a way to see life from a different platform of awareness, the platform  
which encompasses such things as the eternal nature of the very  
essence of your being, the fact that we are in a family unit together,  
you and I, the fact that I have made for you this life and all that is  
in it, that I am concerned about your welfare, that as Divine Parents  
we watch over you and provide all that you have need of.

If you have true awareness that these things are so, then you cannot  
help but to see the transitory phases and experiences of life as just  
that, transitory phases and experiences. They may seem extremely large  
when you encounter them, they may feel overwhelming and for a time  
they may be overwhelming. But to those who have grown in spirit there  
is an inner strength, an inner peace, an awareness that you may use to  
interpret all that goes on around you and this is what you are  
building in your pursuit of spiritual awareness, this greater paradigm  
with which you can view all that transpires.

Having this greater paradigm most certainly smoothes out some of the  
rough edges of experience and makes for a more balanced interpretation  
of the events of life. This is the greatest gift that is available to  
you and in fact, this is a gift you must give yourself. You are here  
by virtue of your own choice to receive this gift, to work to find  
this gift, to seek to embrace this as your own. When you do so you are  
enhanced, you are grown in the process and as a result, you are  
forever altered and changed. You are not as fearful now as you were  
one day before you had the skills and awarenesses. You are not as  
timid as you were one day before you knew you were a child of God so  
definitely. You were lacking direction at times in your life and now  
you find yourself with the conviction of purpose and direction.

All these are as a direct result of your efforts at having pursued  
them, having developed them, having accumulated them to yourself. Now  
it can be said that you are in true ownership of these principles, not  
just in peripheral awareness of [them]. This is a gift that is  
available through accessing the spiritual realm and the gift we are so  
pleased to offer and have accepted. I will tell you that when you do  
accept these gifts, when you do embrace these truths, when your life  
changes as a result of having done so, when your choices indicate your  
values and these values have come from this higher part of your being,  
that is a gift to me, that is a gift to us who have put this entire  
gigantic enterprise into motion.

For you to have had success even on this planet of Agondonters and it  
can be said, in a world of darkness, for you to achieve the light and  
find the universal divine values obscured by the material reality  
around you, that is your gift that you give to me. That is the gift  
that I take away, your success, your accomplishment, your achievement  
in this realm not only benefit you but they bring such great pleasure  
to the parents. And so I will always remain available through your  
times of challenge and as well through your times of success in having  
mastered living your life in accordance with your highest values. To  
me, that is the ultimate reward for all that we go through to get  
there. And so I congratulate you each and every one who have taken to  
themselves this responsibility and have excelled in effort to  
accomplish this ability within yourself to develop this higher aspect  
of your being and then to come from this place as you then reinterpret  
all that life has to surround you with.

Thank you my dear ones, it is a great pleasure to witness you  
achievements, to be provided the opportunity to come to you and  
express this, to have your willingness as part of this reality. These  
are all miracles which are becoming routine as you learn how to master  
spiritual principles. It is a joy to share these words with you and to  
bring comfort where I may and inspiration whenever possible. You are  
indeed doing well and getting better all the time and I will never  
tire of reenforcing this truth as I am so granted the opportunity. I  
now will share this gift of grace that you offer in coming together,  
such eager and willing participants, for use by others. Thank you for  
entertaining my words. Go now in peace and I never forsake you, never  
am far, farewell.

Prayer: [Henry] Divine Parents, we thank you for your intimate  
connection with the love and light of spirit, this connection into the  
greater spiritual family. We ask you today to share a bit of wisdom  
and more love with us today as we strive to come together to express  
our loyalty, our commitment, our firmness of faith in this great  
outworking of spirit and human endeavor. We thank you.

Observer: [Henry] Greetings to you this afternoon. I come to you from  
on high, I am an observer here and am willing to share a bit in this  
spiritual family of spirit and human endeavor. It is good to see the  
gifts which you share, the gift of friendship between one another,  
this love which culminates in the group's ability to [come] together  
and share space and time with each other in a loving embrace of divine  
understanding and human will and purpose.

It is interesting how situations present themselves and yield a unique  
perspective as the passing of a close and intimate friend from this  
life does. It immobilizes ones attention in a way in which you are  
completely aware of your own mortality up until this time, what you  
have achieved, and it brings to mind the transition of a friend and  
how that friend is beginning a new life. In a certain sense, each day  
is a new life. It is like meeting a new friend. All of a sudden you  
have another to share in love and trust, another reference of another  
person doing their best, supporting a larger group by supporting each  
other.

Family is truly a gift, the ability to come together on your own and  
strengthen the bonds which are set between you. This goal of  
achievement on an evolutionary world for all men and women to come  
together in a greater purpose than the individual need, is a challenge  
which even today pretends to bring out the best in all men and women.  
To find this greater resource within and to share this resource in a  
family, in a group setting, adds to the group dynamic and the ability  
to achieve what everyone pretends, the achievement of peace, of  
prosperity, a trust, a trust so great to be able to take care of  
anyone in need. This is how the universe is set up as one gigantic  
functioning family, supporting the family, adding to it as their  
ability to serve the family with all they are given, to support each  
other, to focus towards the one will, the one truth and the one  
expression of greatness.

This tone, this harmony of spirit is beginning to be felt on your  
world. It is beginning to resonate within the minds of humans on the  
planet. More and more groups are strengthening by the individuals  
within them. The next step is for the strengthening of groups to form  
greater groups and this is just what is happening on your world.  
Slowly and slowly groups are beginning to meld together and people are  
beginning to understand the need for a greater sense of purpose  
between each other. This greater sense of purpose, this need to feel  
alive in peace, is something that is within every heart on the planet  
and yes, it is given such tremendous variable of expression that at  
this time it is not able to fully resonate in a peaceful resolution  
yet in time this will become evident because the need for peace grows  
within the heart of all men as you attempt to seek balance with each  
other with spirit, with the Father which resides within.

Once peace begins to build between a human and divine sense, you are  
not really satisfied until you make headway in a greater peaceful  
effort between your brothers and sisters. Spirit is not something that  
you just hold and keep to yourself, it is something which empowers you  
to put yourself on the line for everyone else, for each member of the  
family to be there for them. There is a tremendous need to want to  
make the world safe and secure for everyone. These are real needs and  
real desires. The fact that they are not totally manifest in human  
reality at this point does not preclude that they will not one day be  
the way in which humans operate because there is a tremendous drive in  
spirit to bring these truths to bear in reality on your world and many  
of you are beginning to comprehend and understand this and this grace  
accumulates. The effort and the detail of work and striving that men  
and women do each day to make this world a better place for everyone  
truly builds a strong foundation, the foundation of courage and  
strength, a foundation of willingness and open mindedness and open  
armed-ness in an ability to grasp what needs to be done and move  
forward.

You live in generative times my friends. You live in times of  
manifestation of the beginnings of experiencing spirit realities in  
the human condition. As you all continue to love each other and grow  
in peace, we send you love from on high. We truly embrace the whole  
effort of all men and women on this world to come into a loving  
embrace of each other and acknowledgement of the greatness which lies  
within each of us. I thank you my friends, it is truly a privilege to  
experience and know that the extraordinary times on your world are on  
the verge of changing. Keep true to your tasks and may you all live in  
peace and harmony. Thank you for allowing me this voice here today. I  
take my leave, again, thank you.

Q: Earlier when Michael was talking, I got to thinking about some of  
the situations I find myself in. It is very true that I have gained in  
strength when I came into this association with the Teaching Mission,  
the teacher corp. I was not a strong person, I was easily cowed and  
kept quiet for the most part hoping to keep the peace and not make  
waves and be a genuine peacemaker and so forth. I have found over the  
years that I have gained in strength and I have risen to the occasion  
many times and in fact I am feared by, not necessarily [by] some of my  
contemporaries, but some people because my voice has strength to it  
that it didn't used to have. People tend to think I'm angry when I am  
not, I am just forceful and it is not particularly my force because I  
am a very physically weak person but I was a little concerned how  
forceful I seem to have become, fearful I seem to be to some people. I  
wondered if Michael had some counsel for me on that, not just me but  
for others who may be growing into themselves and be a little startled  
by what we discover our true self to be. I say that as an addendum to  
my question because I don't feel out of line in my growth. I feel I've  
done good but it does concern me, well I'm changed and sometimes I  
don't recognize myself as myself. With that I await your counsel.

Michael: [Mark] My dear one, it is my pleasure to commune with you  
about this. I appreciate your strength that you exhibit in bringing  
such a personal view for public consideration and I thank you. I want  
to seize on one of your phrases and work with it. It was so beautiful,  
this phrase of "growing into yourself " because that truly is the  
essence of what you are observing as you witness that you are not the  
same person today as you can recall being at some previous time.

It is part of the human experience to witness the actual effects of  
time and space on your condition at this point of your experience and  
so you are first granted physical vehicles that enable you, but as  
time wears on, it is impossible for you not to notice that there has  
been change, that there has been the effects of time manifest. This is  
so with your physical dimension as you watch the grass grow, and the  
children grow up, and the friends pass. This is rather an overbearing,  
at times, experience of the effects of time. But I assure you that the  
you that you are growing into, that you are becoming, is a better and  
better and better version of yourself.

I grant you that it will seem different, feel different, and it will  
go through phases and you will have to adjust and readjust and at one  
point you may feel weak and need to prompt yourself to feel stronger.  
At other points you may feel too dominant and need to be aware that  
there is a tendency but these are all transient phases, cycles of the  
big growth that is occurring. So I encourage you to find peace by  
welcoming and loving every phase for what it has to offer, what it has  
to bring to you and show to you. Try with your best efforts, all of  
you, to be of embracing the good that is in all phases of your growth  
cycle because they will only be here one time, you will only be a  
mortal now.

These effects of time on the body will only be observed at this point.  
The entire experience of relationship and friends coming and going and  
being gone from you, they are only gone from you in the material  
plane. This will become normal for you to understand as you progress  
into the spiritual plane but for now it seems as though they are gone.  
This is a unique experience and these glimpses of contrast that you  
are given are gifts of grace for you to use to strike some balance in  
the equation, to have this on the one hand and that on the other,  
provides for the choice. Thus it is so very valuable to encounter  
contrast and be provided with this juncture in the road where a choice  
needs to be made. Which of these two elements of contrast are you more  
attracted to and then how do you proceed.

So I admire your willingness to observe yourself and monitor the  
reaction that you observe others having to your interface. This is  
part of your desire to grow to be better and this desire will bring  
you to the answers you seek and the balance you wish to strike. Fear  
not, all is well, all is getting better and better and better. Even  
when it seems wrong or hard it can still be  leveraged towards the  
good, all things may be directed towards the good and from my  
perspective, all I see about all that you do are merely steps in that  
direction. I hope these words find some resonance with you.

Q: They have been very helpful. Just this evening my husband and I  
were talking about how I'll go along for several days and feel weak  
and wimpy and hopeless and helpless and then without knowing why I'll  
rise to the occasion and be strong and capable and making decisions.  
It boggles me sometimes but I slog on and find out what the next step  
of the adventure will be because although I try to be consistent and  
moderate in the changes such that I'm not bouncing off the wall, high  
and low and manic depressive and all that, I can't help but notice  
that sometimes I think I'm just getting old and senile but on the  
other hand, there are moments when I have such a ... I astound myself  
and as Mark pointed out in discussing his moment with his son in  
prayer and conversation with the spirit realm, you can't deny those  
moments, those experiences, so I will forge ahead, sometimes quickly,  
sometimes slowly. But I do have faith that I am heading in the right  
direction and I do appreciate your counsel as you know.

Michael: [Mark] You just provided several good examples, one right  
after the other of contrasts, of the weak and the strong, and the many  
different aspects to be encountered and observed. That is a wealth of  
wisdom accumulation. Those are what bring you the true wisdom in life,  
having experienced with these different contrasts to be able to make  
an intelligent and appropriate choice. This is such a valuable thing  
to promote, this idea that everything can be seen as simply an element  
of contrast. It need not carry with it the baggage of good/bad,  
extreme, hard, excellent. These are judgements which provide a certain  
filter with which you perceive.

Rather, if we could look at the events in life as 'Isn't that  
interesting,' 'More contrast,' 'Oh, isn't that interesting - I  
observe,' 'This is different,' and see how you feel about it. See how  
you relate to it as someone who desires to live up to their highest  
standards. This constitutes the grace of life, the constant ability to  
observe or make choices and then in so doing, experience the  
ramifications of your choices and lead you into further choices.

The other concept I will seize on that you offer is this idea of  
moderation. This is truly a key to navigating your way through any  
life circumstance. The balance that can be struck when you only are  
affected moderately is so much easier to find if you are over affected  
by life and it is too much, it is hard to find a balance at all. So  
this concept of functioning from a seat of moderation is quite an  
excellent idea. Both directions, coming and going, one should seek to  
moderate their contributions to the human dynamic as well as take all  
things that happen from the human dynamic in moderation. If you can  
find that place to be, you will find it easy to position yourself  
neutrally in the middle, not so drawn inexplicably and yet have the  
conviction of certainty in the direction that when it is your time to  
choose, when you are at that crossroads, which way you will go. Thank  
you bringing these points to the surface.

Q: Thank you for your further embellishment. I really enjoyed the two  
major points of contrast and balance. Thank you.
