*            Daniel: It is with great joy that I greet you each this
evening.  I am Daniel, your friend, guide, and teacher, embracing this
reunion of dedicated souls who have committed to be part of the dawning of
the light on your world.  I welcome you to this grouping of like-minded
souls, seekers of truth, students of beauty, and desirers of goodness for
all. This night I will be part of a tandem lesson addressing the importance
of social connection, of family, of friendship.

Over the past several months, the messages that have come through to this
group have focused upon the necessity of aligning with the First Source and
Center, of bringing God’s perspective, God’s love, and God’s presence in
every moment, in every interaction and decision, being present with God
throughout the day, and we have made this presentation in various ways and
through various personalities.  Now this evening we wish to focus on the
social component, because you are social beings that do not exist separate
from one another.  You were designed to need one another, and it is part of
the educational program of being a mortal being to learn how to be
complementary to one another, to enhance each other’s strengths, to support
one another’s interests and desires, to achieve unity from diversity.

The world today is focused on domination, on competition, on self and
self-aggrandizement.  In the current culture, those themes have gained in
volume over cooperation, unity, support, etc., and we know how deeply each
of you and your brothers and sisters yearn to be part of the common fabric,
while being valued for each of your individual contributions, your
individual “specialness,” so to speak.  One of our purposes in
communicating with you in this manner is to assist you each in knowing how
valued and loved you are, and by recognizing your value it frees you to
recognize the value in others and assist others in seeing that value in
themselves.

While there is much more to explore in this issue area, this topic of
social interaction, I will end it there for myself this evening.  During
this special season that recognizes the human birth of our Creator Son,
Michael of Nebadon, I wish you the great joy in knowing Michael personally
and knowing Michael’s love for you each.  Farewell.

*            Machiventa: My friends, I greet you once again.  I am
Machiventa, here to share with you tonight an example of social
camaraderie.  As you know, one of the measures taken for your world after
it devolved into rebellion and then default, was to institute the four and
twenty counselors, one time citizens of your world, including myself, to
oversee and provide advice and instruction related to the progress of your
world.  Each of these beings, as individuals, had ascension paths for
themselves, and yet when provided the opportunity, they gladly chose to
remain and serve for the world of their origin.

The progress that has resulted, despite you sometimes feeling it not being
at a level you would wish for, was far greater than it would have been if
these mortals had chosen to simply move on and grow into the next phase of
their ascension.  They became a social body with each other.  They worked
through differences of opinion and enthusiastically delved into the
problems of your world, looking for opportunities to shed light and bring
higher meaning and resources.  Even as the adjudication of the rebellion
occurred, and they were once again afforded the opportunity to move on,
they requested to stay again until your world and the other worlds in
quarantine were brought back into the fold, so to speak, and connected once
again.

I share this because it is an example of individual beings finding more
value in the social development and progress of the whole.  While each will
certainly grow immeasurably from these experiences, the motive to be of
service to each other and to those who came after them stands as a pillar
of the possibilities of spiritual achievement.

On your world now, socialization occurs in isolated spheres, but as a whole
there are still barriers to the realizations between countries, between
social groups in your countries, and that ever-long struggle between
individualism and brother and sisterhood.  These are the areas that we look
to involve ourselves in in the time to come as we seek to bring your world
forth into connection with the system.  It is a foregone conclusion that
your world will have to learn how systems operate healthily together.

*            Lynda: I am Lynda.  I have been given the privilege of
punctuating this meeting with a few final words.  My friends, charges of my
dear colleagues, we recognize the unusual circumstances of this holiday
season and your longings to overcome the necessary physical barriers that
are part of this year’s celebrations, and I do use the word “celebration,”
for indeed does the truth of Jesus’ birth, his bringing the promised light
to Urantia, ring for Christians, and the truth of the coming of light rings
in other religious traditions.  And so, keep the light of God’s love
central as you share the gifts of the season with your families.  Keep
friendship alive in your hearts, and enjoy peace.  Now my friends, I bring
this meeting to a close.  We of the teaching staff are looking forward to
great progress with you and each other in your new calendar year.  Merry
Christmas, Happy Holidays.  Farewell.
