*   Elyon  (Jonathan):  Greetings, terrestrial hosts.  I step forward from
among the celestials gathered with you.  I am Elyon.  I regard you all as 
my friends. It is a pleasure to be in association.
    Let me present to you a manner by which you may perhaps develop 
a deeper dynamic connection with Father of Paradise and Mother Supreme.  
You have begun on this world the fall quarter of your first semester in the 
Melchizedek Universities.  
    For those who have been off to college, perhaps you remember the time 
when you brought your parents to visit your new home.  You delighted in 
showing them the grounds, your dorm, the planetarium, the library.  You 
are the tour guide.  Here on Urantia, likewise, being indwelt with the 
Father, 
enfolded in the Supreme, you are the tour guide again.  They delight in 
being shown through your eyes, being taken by the hand.  They want to 
discover your joy in your new home, your first home.
    You all know and realize the Father's omniscience, and you understand 
that Mother Supreme, though providing all of us opportunity for experience, 
also is in need of our contribution through experience.  Your two Parents 
want to experience your life.  
    We ascending mortals are very keen upon reaching Paradise.  Our
mortal ascension is driven by the desire to become perfect as the Father in
heaven is perfect.  It is all consuming to the devoted, to the sincere and the
consecrated, but as you ascend remember you are also showing the Father 
and Mother Supreme around.  You are taking them on a great universe journey.
    Doubt not the choices you make, that the Father freely allows you to 
choose.  All of us who have ascended from the biological spheres, rising up 
from ignorance, do wish to know the true way.  Unfortunately at times we 
desire it to be listed as rules that we can just simply adhere to.  This is 
not 
the Father's will.  There is true and genuine righteousness in the universe, 
but the Father asks you to discover.  There is no order form that can be 
delivered to you that spells out step by step what the will of the Father is. 
 
    Yes, He will make known directly when it is of great importance that His 
will be done, but, in the context of the Supreme, there will be times when 
you must choose, because that is His will.  Your experience requires that 
you branch out from the security of being told.  Is this not like when you 
left 
your parents and went to college and suddenly found a new freedom?  You 
could stay out as late as you wanted.  You could turn the music up as loud 
as you wanted.  The breadth of your freedom to choose taught you lessons 
that were not capable of being owned under a rulership.
    Our sovereign on earth here said, "Blessed are the pure at heart."  I  
wish
to take each letter and spell them out.  A pure heart is one who personally
understands righteous expression; an individual who knows the context of
reality, that which is truth, beauty, and goodness and lives accordingly.  
Purity 
is untainted by falsehood and willful disruption of truth, beauty, and 
goodness.
    Righteousness has been a word much maligned due to ostentatious behavior. 
The master also said, "Blessed are the poor in spirit."  As I look upon all 
of you 
in this room I see rich spirits, abundant with the blessing of revelation and 
the 
love of fellowship.  Poor, that is a private ownership of religion.  It is 
not the accumulation of vast doctrine.  It is not the acquirement of throngs 
of devotees.  
It is not the establishment of grand temples.  There is only one object 
necessary, and that is your direct involvement with God, the one dollar in 
your wallet.
    The master said, "Blessed are the meek."  Modest expression of everyday
kindness.  It's simple.  That is true righteousness.
    Apply these three and you will become an expert tour guide for Father and
Mother Supreme.
    Enjoy your first year at this campus of the melchizedeks.  There are many
lectures to attend, lab classes to be involved in, field trips to enjoy.  I 
was once mortal, and I know that the graduation is not far in the future for 
you.  Be
not concerned with your transition to the mansonia experience; it is a small
transfer.  Look with delight to the eternal embrace of the Father who dwells
within.  There is the true ceremony.  That is what you are working for. There 
is
where the passion arises to bless your fellows with the understanding and to
kindle within them the desire to attain it.
    My friends, I love you.  All standing beside me in a dimension beyond your
senses love you.  I step back.  Thank you.

Snowbird Conference (Saturday morning session)
Salt Lake City, Ut.

*   Wilmek (Donna):  Greetings, brothers and sisters, this is your friend and
teacher Wilmek.  I am overjoyed to be here with you this morning, to see the
love, the fellowship, ablaze in your eyes and hearts.  It fills us, all of the
unseen friends who watch over you, with such pride in our younger brothers and
sisters who have valiantly struggled these long years without the benefit of 
the
physical vision and yet with these open, trusting hearts to be led down the 
path
to feeling the Father's presence, to trusting in the Father's grace and the 
Father's guidance in the unfoldment of your true personality gifts.
    This morning I would like to offer a lesson on the idea of leadership, for
indeed each one of you is a leader in whatever way you desire to serve 
Michael 
in this mission of reclamation of our planetary triumph of goodness over 
darkness. 
    Each of you has a particular talent and a particular ability to inspire 
and
instill within your fellows the confidence and the courage to be who our 
Father
created you to be.  So, I ask you today, how is it that you wish to serve?  
How
is it you wish to display one aspect of leadership?
    As we have watched these long years the evolution of Urantia, we have seen
that there are so few true leaders.  The leaders of your world hold to a 
standard
of power, of coercion, of force, of might.  But I say to you this is not true 
power; 
this is illusory.  
    True power comes in the guise of service, of that meek surrender of the 
will 
of the Father Fragment within that leads you in the expression of peace, 
beauty, goodness, compassion, love.  These are the true hallmarks of 
leadership, and 
the degree to which you show these fruits forth in your daily life in 
interactions 
with others, you show true leadership, for it takes courage to step out and 
return good for unkindness, to forgive when others have hurt you 
unthinkingly, unfeelingly.  This is when you show true leadership.
    I ask you now, I invite you now, to take a moment of stillness to go 
within 
and just ask the Father, "How may I best serve You?  What are the hidden 
talents
I have within me that I may not even be consciously aware of?  Help me to feel
them, to understand them.  Guide me into the realization of them in my daily
life."  Just take a moment to do this now.
    You see, my friends, you have more power and support than you are already
aware of, but it is growing.  Each day as you walk in faith, each day as you
return to stillness and ask the Father to grow your personality gifts, you 
grow
in confidence and assurance that with the Father all things are possible, that
you can work miracles and wonders in His name.  You can reveal the majesty 
and the power and the glory of His love to all whose paths cross in front of 
you.
    As I look into each of you this morning I see such potential.  It fills my
heart with gladness, for each of you has these many beautiful seeds to sow.  
The more you enfold yourselves, the more you give of yourselves, the more you
receive and in turn the more you can share with others.  
    I encourage you to spend time reconnecting with the spring of life to 
water 
those seeds within your soul so that you can bear rich, bountiful fruit in 
the 
harvest and make this kingdom that we are growing into the most vibrant feast 
to tantalize and tempt your brothers and sisters to join in the table, in the 
harvest, 
in the kingdom.  This is a joyful duty, and it is one that you will begin to 
more fully appreciate and relish the more you spend time communing with your 
Father.  So, serve joyfully, lead gladly.
    You do not have to always see where it is that you are heading, for only
the Father knows the path that is best for you.  The more you allow yourself 
to
trust, the more you can reveal the goodness that is in your hearts and the 
more
you can reveal the Father's love to your brothers and sisters.
    As I take my leave of you this morning I want you all to fully appreciate
the bounty and the joy that live within each of you and to lead, be brave.  
Take
that leap, that first step of faith, into the role of leadership and transform
this beautiful planet into the beautiful jewel it was always meant to be.
    Good day.
