*	Evanson (Jonathan TR):  Hello to you all, this is Evanson.  
I am happy to be with you and to share in the acknowledgment of 
one another’s presence.  It is not that far of a stretch, the 
connectivity between yourselves and myself and those of my state 
of being.  While we may be apparently separated by the 
limitations of your physical receptors, your sense organs, we 
are nonetheless in direct contact due to the common link we have 
with Michael and Mother Spirit.  We are for that matter more 
accurately connected, that is we share without the distortions 
of perception.
	You have been taught often the value of service, of being 
about the Father’s business, of promoting the mission of 
Michael.  You are all, I witness, eager to do what you can no 
matter how limited it may appear to be.  In the grand scheme you 
all wish to pursue to your best abilities, to maximize your 
contribution.  I would like to emphasize that this expression 
you endeavor to present to others is also repercussive upon 
yourselves bringing joy and love.
	The nature of life is its two-fold energy dynamic.  You 
know the truth that you must give to receive.  You know of the 
truth that if you lose your life for the kingdom you will 
receive it.  In the effort to minister to your fellows you are, 
in reality, entering into a festival of fellowship, just as when 
you hug an individual you are being hugged in return.  The 
lessons provided, the experiences offered, are likewise returned 
in the mutuality of shared experience.  You who have taught in a 
formal situation where you are the designated instructor and the 
other is the specified student have witnessed often being taught 
by the student by the innocence of insight expressed, though 
they may not be the professional in that arena.
	So, I am here expressing my support for your outreach 
program and reminding you that you will also be well served 
throughout this entire and performance cycle.  All of us stand 
ready to be of assistance.

	Mark:  When confronted with good and noble individuals who 
are earnestly in discussion and debate about the reality of 
their divine Parent, this issue weighs heavily on my heart.  How 
do I reconcile such a gap?

*	Evanson:  It is a troublesome condition, and it is 
prevalent upon those worlds thrown into rebellion.  The natural 
tendency to seek and to know one’s Creator is inherent in all; 
it is guaranteed to be a question in the mind of every 
individual.  Though all who seek in such a manner are endowed 
equally with spirit presence, the condition of the world, the 
orientation of a given society, can hinder realizing the answer 
to that question.
	Since worlds like Urantia have lost their planetary 
headquarters even the physical presence of the higher realms is 
absent.  Spirit pursuit is less tangible, less verifiable, 
without such agencies overtly present.  The pursuit of the soul 
to realize its Maker recedes to a debate of the mind to answer 
the ultimate question.
	The mind, being what it is, is highly flexible.  It is a 
gathering instrument for the personality and, to be effective as 
a gatherer, it is adept at entertaining divergent and diverse 
viewpoints.  In so doing one can construct a philosophy wherein 
the individual has no spirit parent.  While the mind is capable 
of developing such lines of thought, it is not comforting to the 
soul.  Equally one may develop a line of thought full of 
religious facts and theories and still leave the soul hungry for 
personal experience. It then becomes a purpose for all who have 
dwelt in the presence of God to radiate that affirmation.
	Discussion will stimulate the mind of another, but it will 
be association with you that will begin to illumine the soul, 
and this is a path of surety, but one requiring great patience, 
for the weight of a logical argument may convince in a moment, 
but the demonstration of personal experience may require long 
intervals of time to witness the reality and to create the 
surety that you have what is doubted and what is sought for.  
Even the one who has developed the theory of the non-existence 
of God has been impassioned by the drive of spirit to know why, 
to find the answer to that question of origin, universal and 
personal.
	The Correcting Time is a multi-planetary outreach program 
to reestablish the surety of divine overcontrol on the confused 
worlds.  You are a missionary in this correcting time, and in 
your smaller circle you are also reestablishing the surety of 
divine overcontrol.  A Garden of Eden, a planetary headquarters, 
though absent on your world, is present where you stand when you 
stand in the awareness of serving Michael and confident that 
your experiences have developed within you a reality that is 
tangible to another.  It is through association over and above 
argument that another will begin to shift the mind to the 
entertainment of a contrary view, one that will bring peace, not 
a peace of mental certainty, but a peace of personal surety.
	I hope this has addressed your inquiry.

	Mark:  Thank you.  We have heard of the coming of a 
spiritual wave, a rising tide corresponding with the Teaching 
Mission.  Is this also a factor that we might come to see at 
play in this scenario of finding our position?

*	Evanson:  This wave you speak of, this energy inpouring to 
your world, is recognizable even in your headlines of news.  The 
apparent unsettling issues of your time are due to the momentum 
of the rise of this wave of transformation.  As you bond 
together in an outreach project you are reacting positively to 
the uplifting momentum of this incoming wave.  You are taking to 
surf rather than running for cover.

	Mark:  Does this wave also provide the necessary float for 
those souls who are seeking, to provide them the desire to move 
forward in their search?

*	Evanson:  Yes, it does, for as has been recorded in your 
scriptures where it says you will never be tested beyond your 
ability to endure and to triumph, likewise your buoyancy is 
never overcome by the force of this wave.  Precursor waves will 
lift you and these will enlarge until you are capable of riding 
upon the largest of the influx.  Again, this is our reason for 
being with you, to prepare you for the uplift and that you will 
demonstrate to others how to become more buoyant, to create the 
likeness of spirit within themselves that they may rise.
	Also I would add that some may only benefit by being hit 
hard and inundated by this spiritual wave.  In this baptism they 
will resurface transformed, convinced that spirit power is upon 
this world and that transformation toward the good is the most 
worthy pursuit.  This wave comes not to destroy but to uplift or 
to wash clean.

	Mark:  Thank you.  I cherish your imagery.

*	Evanson:  And I appreciate your inquiry.  It isn’t often 
that I attend these collections of awareness, and I am happy to 
be able to assist.

*	Nebadonia:  I am Nebadonia.  Again, I rise in your 
awareness to intermingle with you in love.
	Such words as “love” and “peace” and “joy” and “light” are 
frequently expressed in the form of encouragement, that you may 
experience these states and know.  Though the risk is that these 
words lose their impact, they bear repeating, for when you do 
open yourself to light and to love, peace and joy are yours even 
in the most trying of times.  In the center of your being where 
I dwell these states of being are safeguarded.  When you turn to 
me you are renourished.  Turn inward during your troubling 
moments, for this is when you are most in need of nourishment.  
Yes, I do enjoy the high times when you are happy and you 
fellowship with me in the celebration of goodness.  Likewise 
strength is yours when you turn in trouble, for love transcends 
all temporal conditions.  Ever remember that love dwells deep 
within you.  Let it rise; let it permeate all that you are and 
all that you do.

*	Elyon (Mark):  Greetings, this is Elyon.  Bask in the glow 
of your divine Parent.
	I offer but one small suggestion and that would be to 
beware of judging your personal successes based upon the 
reaction of another.  It is your role to play to simply function 
as you see best, as you see fit.  It is entirely up to others to 
act as they see best and as they see fit.
	When you offer yourselves in service be mindful that you 
may not receive the tangible results of your efforts or that 
these results may not meet your expectations.  But if you act as 
the highest ambassador for truth and function in the capacity of 
spirit example, then you have successfully performed your duties 
and fulfilled your function.  Do not be distressed when the 
reaction of others may be less than you hoped for or not as you 
would desire, as others must come to their own appreciation and 
understanding of the values you are attempting to portray.
	This does not mean that you have failed.  The progress of 
another is independent of your offerings, and you must ever 
beware of sizing your own worth in accordance with another’s 
reaction.  Allow them complete freedom to be as they are and 
fulfill your complete freedom to be as you will.  If you fulfill 
your obligation to be all that you can be, then most certainly 
you have succeeded.
	I offer this to you because the temptation is great to 
measure yourself in contrast to others and to others’ reactions 
to you in this life.  Simply concern yourselves with your 
reactions and your actions and allow others to interpret, to 
decide, for themselves.  Simply be all that you can be and trust 
that this is enough, for indeed it is.  Allow spirit to work and 
the Father’s presence to work on all those around you in their 
time and at their pace.
	Be patient and be steadfast in your projection of the 
spirit realities you know to be true.  Allow all else to work 
itself out as it will.  Trust that you have done your part and 
been successful in your endeavor insofar as you have completed 
your task.
	I hope this provides some comfort, and I will withdraw at 
this time.

	Jonathan:  I notice that throughout history the great 
players are those who realize the truth you speak of and forge 
ahead regardless of persecution or discrimination.  We may not 
be the big players, but our little lives have the same type of 
episodes.  Thank you for helping us keep that in mind.

*	Elyon:  I would simply redirect slightly by words of 
encouragement that when you perform to the highest of your 
capacity and portray that which is universally true, you are one 
of the big players, you are one of the bright lights that can 
then guide and attract those who are seeking that certainty that 
you convey.
	It is ever true that old adage there are no small parts to 
play, only small actors.  Each part is significant and pivotal.  
It is for you to rise up and fill that role and function in that 
capacity ... you would stand steadfastly behind the truths of 
that which you know to be real, to have the benefit of a grand 
role to play.  It is only who will rise up to speak these lines, 
to say this truth, to be this light in the darkness.
	I recognize that each of you is willing to play this role 
in your lives, in your circles, in the arenas of your 
influences.  Therefore you too are grand players and can take 
comfort in the fact that your script, your lines, are the lines 
of universal truth, of beauty, of goodness.  They are powerful 
lines to be delivered, and they will affect all whose ears they 
reach.  It is simply that these lines need to be delivered to be 
heard.  If they are never spoken they can never be embraced by 
another.  That is the simplicity of this design, yet there is 
grandeur there.

	Jonathan:  I will try to live up to this encouragement of 
yours.

*	Elyon:  Of this I have no doubt. If there are no other 
engagements then perhaps I will release you from this forum 
knowing that each of you, the good students that you are, will 
take the time to digest and embrace that in these messages that 
will benefit you and embrace the support which is yours for the 
taking.  Thank you all.
