*	Lantarnek (Jonathan TR):  Greetings to you, I am Lantarnek.  
I welcome every opportunity to express light through this medium 
of words, to share love by way of communication, the 
acknowledgment of our common presence, fellowship being one with 
our Father.
	It is a great trial to many who live in the realm in which 
you find yourselves.  The conditions require such effort.  The 
conditions in which you find yourself on this world often 
require your attention on matters that appear to distract you 
from your pursuit of higher truth of the attainment of a 
lifestyle more radiant with spirit.  Each of you I perceive to 
have wrestled with this state of affairs and have developed your 
ability to infuse your ideals of higher spirit living into these 
mundane affairs.  It is healthy to honestly recognize that your 
terrestrial events are significant contributors to your 
spiritual ascension.  The immediate goal of any task may appear 
to be short lived and function merely to pay your bills to fill 
your shelves.  But within such undertakings there is a treasure 
chest of experiential gems which develop your character, which 
brings about virtue, which hones your personality and prepares 
you for undertakings in the morontia realms.
	Often when a human being grasps one’s significance in the 
cosmos -- and by that I do not mean individual importance but 
rather your unique placement in the overall collective -- the 
assumption results that one merely waits for the moment of 
ascension beyond this realm to the worlds of true spirit value.  
You have learned that your spirit value is found here, that 
there is no greater training ground for the development of soul.  
Happy are they who have come to know that life upon your world 
is not one of isolation from spirit, that in welcoming the 
assistance of your higher brethren you are strengthened, you are 
guided and ushered along the path best suited for you.
	Michael when living upon your world demonstrated this very 
approach to life I speak of.  While he spoke of being in the 
world but not of the world, he all the while never condemned the 
world his Father created.  He absorbed the experiences of life 
and adjusted them to his universe outlook.  This is how you 
experience peace on earth.
	The battle between spirit and flesh ceases when one 
understands the value of physical life in a spiritual universe.  
Through the human soul spiritual growth is a reach upward to 
Paradise, but to your divine spirit your life is a reach out 
into the stretches and edges of the universe.  Just as a 
magnificent tree, deeply rooted in the earth, each spring puts 
forth new tips of growth, so does Father extend farther into the 
depths of space through living creatures like yourselves.  When 
your daily events appear to be insignificant, remember you are 
the tip of growth of spirit even out here on this edge of the 
superuniverse.
	I welcome your comments.

	Jael:  (Liked his point about peace on earth.  Thanks 
Lantarnek for his comments)

*	Lantarnek:  Peace is found in the acquirement of the view 
of harmony.  Much of your life is described as a "battle with" a 
“war on” and a “fight over”.  Abandoning this perspective and 
accepting and acknowledging conflicts as episodes for the 
development of character they become welcome experiences and 
cease to be struggles.  Effort is acceptable as you have over 
time repeatedly experienced success.
	I take my leave at this point.  May you be good.
