* Lantarnek (Jonathan): I am happy once again to be with
you not only in spirit but also in the consciousness of
communication. I am Lantarnek.
There is a meaningful dimension to human behavior to which
you apply the word “forgiveness”. It is a beautiful gesture of
the human heart which elevates the human being above the animal
fray of attack or be attacked, of defense, of self preservation,
for in this action of forgiveness there is revealed the
transcendent state of spirit being, one where you understand
that the inequalities of human life are transient, and that the
lasting values of love and of concern for the future growth of
another are far greater.
As I am often wont to do, I will alter the spelling and
insert “e” into fore-giveness. This is the attitude of the
heavenly Parent, to reach out to each child even before the
child is aware of need, to give love, to give opportunity for
awakening through a lesson resulting in growth. This attitude
never requires pardoning on the part of the divine Parent, for
God understands the progress of spiritual unfoldment and the
stages of maturity and each child’s ability to respond and to
adapt and to become. Therefore there is no affront, only the
love of a parent who knows where the child is rising from and to
where the child is going. In this manner you can experience
much peace and certainty and acceptance and evenness, for you
are anchored in eternal values and perceive the spiritual
unfoldment of others and yourself, thereby placing into context
all the many temporal undertakings. While each has its
importance in the moment, within a universe context your
response or your guidance has deeper meaning and will contribute
both to the immediate temporal condition and to the long term
eternal result. In this manner you represent the Father in the
world.
Every individual who has kindled the flame of spiritual
aspiration will respond to any source that approaches them which
offers deeper understanding and a greater connection in love.
By your fore-giving you offer yourself as a servant’s hand to
another, and in their seeking they are receptive to the Father’s
flow of energy and spirit. You need not be skilled or trained,
highly accomplished in any manner. You simply place yourself in
readiness for the movement of the Father to touch the soul of
the child who seeks Him.
I come not alone to this circle today. I will allow my
fellows to enter into your midst.

* Elyon (Mark): I greet you as well. This is Elyon. I
would take this opportunity to lead on the thought pattern of
this TR, as this pattern seems befitting at this time to augment
the helpful lesson of Lantarnek.
This thought pattern is of that aspect of yourselves which
is enduring throughout this continuum beginning in time and
space and progressing into eternity. The aspect of your being
which is constant through this journey that I refer to is that
aspect of your conscious awareness of your consciousness of
spiritual perspective. Whereas your surroundings, your
situations, your needs, desires, circumstances, and
understandings all will fluctuate as you engage in this journey
of time, your consciousness becomes augmented along this route
but remains at the core of what you take with you.
As you transcend through the levels of time and space your
conscious awareness of your relationship to spirit is deepened
and strengthened and goes through many transformative steps
along the route. Nevertheless it is this assembly of growth
steps that you take with you as you leave one era, as you finish
one journey and begin another. It is as the experience gained
by the captain of the vessel. The vessel changes; the journey
is different, but the experience is retained by the captain to
use in the next journey to help guide and prepare the captain
for the next journey even though it may be to a place unknown
through a route undetermined. The captain gains great strength
from the experience he has compiled in the previous journeys.
You are each compiling this experience now and gaining the
strength that comes from having this resource at your
fingertips, so that each time you set sail on a new journey you
possess more confidence and greater strength as a result of all
that you have come to know and assemble in your database of
consciousness.
To the seaworthy captain, no journey with its attendant
uncertainties is enough to call off the voyage, it merely whets
the appetite of the eager captain to see what is next that can
be added to this storehouse of knowledge, to then be drawn upon
later to provide the strength and the certainty to press on into
unknown, uncharted territories. You all are gaining that sense
of certainty into your spiritual forays, and more and more you
are acting with the certainty only derived from your own
personal firsthand experiences. Each one, you are becoming a
well-seasoned captain of your vessel and are becoming more alert
to the conditions around you and the opportunities before you
that you may unfurl your sails and gain the most travel from
that which is immediately around you. This awareness, this
consciousness of your relationship and your role to play provide
you with the needed security so that you may take the risks that
you may dive into the deep end, that you may follow your heart’s
leadings even though that path is unknown to you at times. It
is as the good captain trusts that the stars will always guide
him safely, so you now trust that spirit will guide you safely.
The experience of the good captain has him seeing the
journey and its end from the beginning, has him in full
awareness of what he is doing at any time and therefore ever
alert and present as conditions change and requirements shift.
Even with the change and the shift there is the certainty of
destination and the security of the success of the journey. The
more you function in cosmic awareness, in spirit consciousness,
the more secure you are about your route and the steps necessary
to take to successfully complete your journey. This bank of
experience is what you are currently establishing in your lives,
and each experience is a scaffold for the next, and in this way
do you get ever higher, and you are provided with ever more an
enhanced perspective on your journey.
A good captain is also bold about his uncertainties and
willing to take certain risks to have a more glorious journey
and a sweeter success at having arrived at his destination.
I appreciate that each of you has spent time in sailing
school to learn the basics of the trade. Now seeing each of you
take to the seas and man your vessels with such skill and such
enthusiasm is a great joy to behold. It is a thrill to ride
along with you as we encounter the different elements and rise
to meet their challenge, as we set our sights and set our sails
on the distant shore, knowing full well of the certainty of our
arrival in a safe port of our desires. I join you in looking
forward to this journey and in the thanks that we both offer for
this opportunity to man these vessels and to show that which we
are made of, that which our consciousness allows us to portray.
Thank you for hearing my words today. There are as well
others available.

Evelyn: I am trying to find a tie between this captain
image and forgiveness. If we see ourselves as captain we often
regard others as our crew who are supposed to obey our commands
and live up to our expectations. We need to remember that they
are all captains as well. We need to serve as crew members
also. There’s the forgiveness angle of seeing that others are
operating as captains and to not take it personally if they are
barking orders; they are just behaving like captains. Beyond
that I haven’t thought it through.

* Elyon: I would promote your idea that in this analogy of
the captain each one would be more appropriately attributed to a
very small vessel and, while in charge of your individual
vessel, you can provide an example to others of how to trim your
sail. Also you are given ample opportunity to see the
characteristics of other vessels around you. While some may
appear to tack wildly back and forth or even bump into each
other, it is through this race of humanity that you may be
forgiving of the many errant attempts of the many individuals
around you. Rather than perceive them as obstacles or problems
in the way of this journey, they may be seen as those in need of
assistance and in need of your forgiveness, because while we are
becoming skilled at operating these vessels, there is a great
distance yet to cover. We may at times be masters of our
vessels and at times be blown off course into another requiring
their understanding and forgiveness as well. In fact the seas
are teeming with vessels trying to navigate their ways. Just
because you have had some training in the use of your vessel and
the elements does not mean that the journey has been finished
and that there isn’t much to be learned through the trial and
error of any journey.

* Sharmon (Jonathan): This is Sharmon. I am excited to be
here to make our contact as one of your earthlings, your midway
brother. I wish to humbly contribute to these two fine
teachers’ comments today by injecting one other consideration.
Picture a harbor as your planet. We midwayers are the ones
who care for this harbor to coordinate the comings and goings,
to see to the safety and well-keeping of the harbor to make sure
that those who arrive here are taken care of and those who wish
to depart are sent on their ways in due process and
expeditiously.
Picture the entire coastline of harbors as your system of
planets. While each harbor is guided by a Planetary Prince, so
is the entire coastline, the system of planets, governed by an
able System Sovereign. Picture an ocean as your local universe,
a great vast area through which you may travel and gain these
experiences that Elyon speaks of, and now the entire world of
navigable bodies of water as the great cosmic universe. You
have an adventure ahead of you, and we, the midwayers, are
seeing to it that your ship is ready to sail. We are excited to
send you forth from this harbor of Urantia to discover all that
our great God has laid out for everyone to experience.
Thank you.

Mark: Thank you for the service that you and the corps of
midwayers provide us. We desire to work more closely with you,
our brothers on the planet. We invite you to be more present in
our circle so we can work more closely with you.
