Session

Opening

Master Teacher, we come to You today with hopeful and expectant hearts, as this Sunday will begin the advent season. We approach You with love and respect, honor and glory, as You are the Father to us and represent all that is good, holy, warm, protective and at the center of All-that-is. We keep ourselves in Your presence and in Your heart and mind, and You are in our heart and mind, which makes us one, forever. And for this we are eternally grateful.

We are thankful for all of the blessings that have been bestowed upon us, for the gift of life and all the trimmings that come with it, that enable us to be happy, healthy and whole individuals, both in body, mind and spirit. And for this we are grateful.

For the teachers you have made known to us we appreciate tremendously, and share in the brotherhood of the unity of all creatures for all time and beyond. For those concerns within our hearts and minds that You are aware of, we place before You now, as we are all in reality, as You are, a priest forever, according to the Order of Melchizedek. For this we are very grateful.

Amen.

NEBADONIA: My beautiful children, this is Nebadonia, your Mother. Michael and I are with you today, in addition to your standard teachers, Tomas and Anatolia, in whom We are well pleased, as We are pleased with you who are such eager learners.

It is My pleasure to be pleased with My children. It is difficult for Me to find displeasure. In that all you do, I know you do to please Me and your Father.

Lesson

You go to great lengths to obey Our admonitions, to best ascertain your personality bestowal in this incarnation as a mortal, in full appreciation of the vicissitudes of such a life on such a planet. Indignities abound. Inhumanity is in many ways the order of the day. Violence, thoughtlessness, disease, and despair are a part of the fabric of our lovely world, which has been misused and which now is being reclaimed from the quarantine which held it in check as a result of the most unfortunate choice of Our dear creation, Lucifer, who was led astray by his own personal point of view.

We realize it is no easy task for you on Urantia. Michael realized this in unspeakable ways when he walked on this world as a mortal, a man among men.

We are thankful to you who, with eyes open, adore your Parents, who have forgiven Us the many difficulties you have had to endure and encounter as children of a rebellion-torn planet, bereft of guidance from the Material Son and Daughter, being faced with the challenges that we face, bringing this orb into alignment with the abundance and good health of the universe at large.

We are thankful to you who, with eyes open, continue to put forth the faith and hope of the noble agondonter. As a voice in the wilderness, you call out, singing praises to truth, beauty, and goodness. With workers like you, We will feel the effects far and wide, not only across the globe whereon you reside, but throughout your System as it heals these wounds, as Satania and all parts therein become once again functional and fulfilled in their own right, as a part of Our creation of Nebadon.

What wonders must the Universal Father hold in store for those of you who have staunchly held firm to your Divine Guides, who are even now leading you into peace of mind and tranquillity of spirit, soul rest for the weary.

Herein We reside. Come to Us. Come to your Mother and your Father. Allow Us to reinvigorate you with Our strength, Our energy and Our power. Come to Us as children, knowing you need Our counsel and We are happy to oblige.

What joy you bring to those you know in the mortal realm and in the celestial spheres, such is your spiritual fragrance, beautiful children of Mine, and of Michael. Michael would like to speak through Matthew if Matthew is impelled.

MICHAEL: Welcome, Friends and Family of the Almighty. We are with you today out of gratitude for your dedication to all that is good, true and beautiful in your realm as well as Ours. Be mindful that you are rewarded for that which is truthful in your pursuit thereof. The reward which I speak of is the reward of knowing that your pursuits of truth, goodness and beauty are not fallen on deaf ears, for those who otherwise have not eyes to perceive what you pursue.

Mine is a wish for you to know that so long as you have My interests in mind, your pursuits will always be blessed with fulfillment, if not here, (then) in the afterlife (as you call it), which is for all time and beyond. What I am speaking of is not necessarily a course, a goal, a program or project to be pursued and completed, as if your mind directed you to build the equivalent of the tabernacle choir or its enclosure. That is, if it is your sense that to be true to my word you must build edifices which reflect the beauty which you perceive to be in need of reflection, this is only a concept, a principle that you are upholding. And this principle is truly worth every aim and pursuit of light, mind, or structure that you may create for you and for me. However, more temples or cathedrals or edifices of grandeur and beauty, as you would hope and desire to express, are not necessary. But the thought, the concept and the dedication to a single purpose that your life can express as part of the eternal truth, beauty and goodness is all that I ask.

This, as in past teachings, is reflected in your acceptance of the faith which you were given. This faith, mind you, can be present in each and all religions which bear the concept of truth, beauty and goodness, therefore one need not be a Christian, in the sense of your traditional teachings, but to know the God-Source and that all is a reflection and an expression of the central core of truth, this is all that is necessary for My satisfaction.

You are not placed upon earth simply for the gratification of a Supreme Power, which oversees your activities, but rather to be part of the total, which is the on-going performance of creation as We go. Thus, your role is not one of being subject but, rather, being part of the ruling house.

You will never need to worry in the on-going proliferation of truth about who will be King, who will succeed in the oversight of the Kingdom. You shall be gratified to know that your place in the Kingdom is assured. No more battles, no more wars, no more justification of one side versus the other, but that all is justified before Our Father because We accomplished that through My mission here a mere 2,000 years ago.

Know that My purpose in coming forth at that time, and by My maintaining My presence with you all of these years, has been to alert and inform that all are called to the table of Our Father’s bidding. All have a place and no one shall go hungry. It is My supreme duty to inform you that the feast shall begin. It has begun when the Father said, “Let there be light” and as We proceed in the light. I welcome you to feast with Me as I with you before our Heavenly Father.

Nebadonia and I welcome you to the banquet hall. Swing wide the doors which are to benefit all of us under the grace and being of Our Heavenly Presence. I wish all well, and know that there is never a time that I am apart or distant from your hearts or minds, that all is truly united by your desire for such unity.

Whenever you pray for unity, you are simply reinforcing that which IS. Whenever you feel disdain or a darkening of your conditions, remember that light is to be re-ignited where you may be unaware. Light a candle of truth and therefore you may see, whereas otherwise you may stumble.

I could leave further kernels of truth and encouragement before you, but the main one is to re-ignite the heart light within so that all may see without. It is this desire to serve and to be a light beacon that you are asked to do. You need not accomplish marvelous things. Again, and that is rebuilding the temple, but know that your temple within is already an edifice of great satisfaction.

I wish you peace, holiness and oneness with Us, now and always. May peace be with you.

TOMAS: Yes, this is Tomas. I could not allow the day to pass without taking the opportunity to make my presence known and to greet you in great joy and thanksgiving for the pleasure of your company.

Elena: And to you, too, Tomas, our gratitude for you and all that you do.

TOMAS: Yes, the cup runneth over, and the table is piled high with nutritious, delicious food to experience and share. In view of our abbreviated session today, in honor of this holiday, my remarks will be brief, but it is to commend you for applying yourselves to the graciousness of your culture within the bounds of your choosing and according to your will. This is to say, the originality of gathering to give thanks and break bread on a day separate from that which is acknowledged by others is an indication of your willingness to adapt to the needs of life as they present themselves, indicating an ability to step outside the bounds of conformity and tradition.

Think on this facet of the personality that is divinely guided and spirit led, and how it is that in following the leadings of the indwelling God Fragment you are often outside the bounds of propriety or custom but withal, genuine, effective and sincere. This is how you would do well to comport yourselves in your arena. When you take note that you are in the world but not of it, take with you your God-given rights, identity and approaches, and manifest them in your realm as you would do according to your needs, and thus stand as a beacon of light for others. Yes, I admit, in jest, you might look like a sore thumb sticking out for all to see, but this is also effective ministry, for when you are not responsive as the world is responsive, you indicate your own otherworldiness and perspective.

Anatolia, would you like to greet your class?

ANATOLIA: Welcome to all who are able to join us today. I am most grateful for your willingness and desire to meet and to celebrate that which you have as a wonderful custom in which to partake, for surely it is a custom that the world over could, can and will eventually celebrate, for it is symbolic not just of your humble beginnings in a shared co-operative way of cultural intersection, as were the religious freedom finders finding a new world of their finding, but for those who had been here for ages prior, openly, willingly and trustworthily sharing what they had with those who were new to their environment.

This is active participation in the eternal process of giving and receiving. It is symbolic in a civil sense, established within your tradition, and not really recognized for the cosmic representation that it is. Nevertheless, it doesn’t have to be recognized as such for the subtleties are there nevertheless. The outward demonstration of that which you celebrate is a cosmic celebration for the bounty that exists both here and throughout the vast and limitless cosmos.

You need not celebrate in a cosmic sense if you wish, but know that every action which is based in truth has its cosmic counterpart. You have been highly blessed today by having the co-Creators of your universe present with you as a reminder of this cosmic gift that you celebrate: the bounty which knows no limit, which is your eternal heritage. The good news is also that no one can cut you out of the will. Your inheritance is assured, and you are not just receivers but givers alike, and this I believe you perceive in the message presented to you today by both co-Creators of your universe.

This is a grand and happy day for humankind, to be able to recognize that which they celebrate and not simply take for granted as an historic fact but as a cosmic recreation of that which is true, holy and good.

I wish for all of you to have a wonderful time and to continue to share and appreciate each other’s company, as this gathering has significance to me and to us as we continue to be your teachers. This is an ongoing endeavor to cement within your consciousness that which is true, holy, and will never be broken.

This chain of command, if you will, that we serve is also in service to you and you to the ongoing presence of that which you incorporate within your beings. I wish you could know the extent of the truth which each of you contains. It is truly a universe within universes. As in a query of the chicken and egg, you contain both truths, so there has not been a beginning by which you have your being but rather the all-encompassing NOW which was beyond a moment of ignition but has always been. This is perhaps way more than you expected but I wish to reinforce that which is the eternal truth of the ongoing nature of all that is. Know your place within, and all is well.

Closing

I leave you in peace as you continue to enjoy and celebrate and to be that living and loving Presence which is what each of us is called to be.

Peace be with you, and have a pleasant day.

TOMAS: And I, Tomas, will leave with Anatolia, in order that you might, as instructed, go about your day doing good and being all that you can be in company with yourselves and your spirit helpers who rejoice at the light that dawns on this new day. See you soon. Farewell.
