<BR>
* Elyon (Jonathan TR): This is Elyon, I greet you. I will speak some using the<BR>
words: “sincerity” and “genuine”.<BR>
<BR>
It may be viewed as a progression from one to the other; one may be sincere and yet<BR>
unattained, unenlightened or inexperienced but at the hour of volition is oriented toward<BR>
the attainment, and that, in the course of pursuit, there is the acquirement of the real<BR>
nature sought, of the high status to attain. And then enters in “genuine”, the true<BR>
character.<BR>
<BR>
All of the apostles began their ministry with Jesus sincerely. They did not<BR>
understand what would unfold in the years of ministry, and they realized in hindsight the<BR>
great rewards from which they benefited by undergoing the experiences with their master.<BR>
They followed Jesus because he was genuine; he was not merely clothed, but he was through<BR>
and through the Son of God.<BR>
<BR>
Early these apostles relied greatly upon Jesus to do the teaching, to address the<BR>
masses, but as they matured in their spiritual growth, when the genuineness enlarged<BR>
within them, they too could preach the gospel. You remember the episode of their<BR>
attempts to heal an individual, and they tried in sincerity but failed. It was because<BR>
they had not become genuine in their ability. So the divine grace was withheld that they<BR>
might learn.<BR>
<BR>
I do not wish to put sincerity in a lesser light, for it is the drive, the wanting,<BR>
that pushes you forward or pulls you forward and causes the attainments that make you<BR>
genuine. They go hand in hand.<BR>
<BR>
A connecting link between the two is loyalty, a loyalty to that which is true and<BR>
real, a recognition of means and manners whereby one may distort reality and to safeguard<BR>
oneself from such encounters, that even when one wishes for an outcome that is not based<BR>
upon truth or reality, that one honestly and loyally holds to what is real and disregards<BR>
the fanciful wish.<BR>
<BR>
The sincere desire to do the will of God leads to the genuine practice of the will<BR>
of God without any contrivance. You find in an individual who has done so great loyalty<BR>
to spirit, a loyalty even unto death.<BR>
<BR>
The apostles of Jesus underwent the greatest test of their faith at the conclusion<BR>
of his life, for they were devoted to his mission, and yet it appeared to come to a<BR>
sudden disastrous conclusion. But upon viewing him subsequent to his death and<BR>
discovering the continued relationship, they had a profound revelation of true<BR>
genuineness, for here was a being who not only in flesh reflected the qualities of God,<BR>
but here before them was a being of the morontia order. Then they knew without any doubt<BR>
of the reality of his presence and his mission.<BR>
<BR>
So many have followed over the centuries and have recognized from the sense of the<BR>
soul the genuine teaching and the true spiritual nature of Jesus. Why is it that one so<BR>
many years later could hold the same faith as those first twelve did who actually saw him<BR>
reappear subsequent to his death? It is because of the Spirit of Truth; it is because<BR>
Michael indwells and in so doing each one of you sees the master. You begin with a faith<BR>
that is sincere and tender and young, and in your relationship with him you develop a<BR>
mature faith that is genuine and strong.<BR>
<BR>
I make room now that others may come in to your presence and address you.<BR>
<BR>
* Light (Kathy): This is Light responding to your request to spread light on this<BR>
planet.<BR>
<BR>
In my growth on this world I have seen many situations where an infusion of light<BR>
has worked to bring about change in both persons and groups. Be confident that in your<BR>
efforts to bring a focus of light there will emerge a change in the underlying problems<BR>
faced by those who are at the center of the problem area. In the spirit’s circuit lies<BR>
great power for change. Attention is needed to bring the power of the spirit circuits to<BR>
an area of conflict and need. If you are in intention to change to bring light, your<BR>
efforts will be utilized and appreciated.<BR>
<BR>
As always I am in great appreciation of your taking action to create with your<BR>
intention. I am always with you.<BR>
<BR>
* Monjoronson (Jonathan): Monjoronson here. You spoke today of planets and moons and<BR>
recognized the value of the warmth of the sun and the fortuitous situation of a planet<BR>
such that a sun can foster growth: too close and you scorch, too far and you freeze.<BR>
Every planet that supports life requires conditions such as you spoke of.<BR>
<BR>
On a world like Urantia there are many human beings who are like planets that seek<BR>
the warmth of the spiritual sun. At times there are those who have drawn so close to the<BR>
sun they are scorched, and I do not mean that this scorching comes from spirit, but it<BR>
comes from a fanaticism. A healthy soul is one who can maintain an orbit that fosters<BR>
life.<BR>
<BR>
I will make another point based upon your discussion. You spoke of Jupiter as a<BR>
source of warmth for its moons. Each one of you is a Jupiter; you give out the warmth of<BR>
spirit, the glow of the light of God. There are those in orbit around you who are able to<BR>
draw healthful energy from you and be sustained. This is a ministry that you can give,<BR>
and all individuals are capable of such radiance. By you living so you foster the<BR>
ability for another to adopt that very manner.<BR>
<BR>
When Michael said as he left, “My peace I give you; my peace I leave with you” he<BR>
was illustrating who he was to be transferred to you and to become you. So, my dear<BR>
friends, be the light and share the light. Let it warm all about you and draw together<BR>
in fellowship that you may be like a cluster of stars greatly radiating the spirit of<BR>
God.<BR>
<BR>
Thank you for receiving me.<BR>
<BR>
* Michael: I am Michael. At this moment we tarry by the side of the road of life,<BR>
and we rest under the shade of our Father’s grace. I sit with you in fellowship. We<BR>
share laughter; we refresh one another. In this joviality being in one another’s<BR>
presence is rejuvenating. Yes, we have a long road to traverse, and the sun does get hot<BR>
and the dust thick. But it is at these moments of pause that we are reminded of why we<BR>
carry on. It is that deep love of friendship and that care for the benefit of one<BR>
another.<BR>
<BR>
I would that so many would pause under this tree of our Father with us that there<BR>
would be hardly any room under the shade. But we know our Father and that He is infinite<BR>
and that His refreshing cool coverage can expand throughout the entire universe. Let us<BR>
always take in a passerby who is weary, for there is always room under the tree to come<BR>
in and fellowship with us.<BR>
<BR>
I give my love to you.<BR>
