Following a Beautiful Thankfulness Worship from Jill, the following 
transmission began


	AARON (T/R Daniel):  Thank you Dear one.  We said that prayer right 
along with you.  Thank you for allowing it through so that we all may 
Worship with you.

	Greetings my friends and colleagues.  This is your brother Aaron.  I 
am grateful that you chose to participate in this evening’s class 
with us.  I would like to take this opportunity tonight if you will, 
to address the larger audience.  We have been having our classes for 
some months now, and there will often be less individually personal 
pieces of the messages that you may wish to share with your TeaM 
partners.  

	Gratitude is an extremely potent tonic for the Soul.  When you can 
have those elated feelings of intense gratitude to our Father and to 
all of us, then you may truly experience the full and loving attitude 
of your Soul in action.  Gratitude energizes.  Thankfulness propels 
one forward to seek new and undiscovered opportunities for love and 
for service and for relationship.  Gratitude is a full level above a 
personal need for forgiveness.  When in Gratitude one is totally 
unaware of any need for forgiveness, for to be Grateful is to 
Worship, and in Worship we become in tune with Spiritual Realities.  
It is your job, now that you are aware, to begin living your 
Morontia, your Soul life, Now.  And indeed you will continue to do so 
from here to Salvington.  But, it is a part of Morontia life and 
experience that we learn to participate in the creation of Spiritual 
Realities, just as your initial task is to transform your human 
reality into Morontia Realities.  Now that you are becoming more 
aware of those times when you are experiencing ‘Soul Control’ if you 
will, then as one who is consciously living your Morontia life you 
should also recognize that at the same time you too are in the 
process of creating your Spiritual Realities as well.  

	Each of you, All of you, have Grown by leaps and bounds in a very 
short period of time.  Let your Soul feel Thankful.  Let your Soul be 
bathed in Gratitude.  You have been given Much.  And forget not, that 
to get where you have, you have also Given much.  We and all of the 
Teachers know how much each of you give without your being aware that 
you are even doing so.  It is becoming more natural for you.  It is 
becoming a Way of Life.  Less and less often do you make the lesser 
choice, so that the few times that you do choose the lesser, it is 
alone and therefore far more recognizable to you.  Do not judge 
yourselves for any of your mistakes.  You make remarkably fewer than 
you would have made only a few short years ago.  

	Well neigh all of you are now in a time of transition.  It is a time 
for going within and seeking your Father’s advice on preparing for 
your Personal Mission.  For true it is, from here into Eternity, each 
of us in on a Personal Mission with God.  The Father is the only one 
who will be with us each throughout every single step of the way.  
That personal relationship with Father is what enhances all other 
personal relationships with everyone else.  That relationship with 
Father is our opportunity to continually discover who we each really 
and truly are.  We are all Children of God who are all in Love with 
one another.  This is what is most needed on your world at this time, 
for people to learn to Love one another.  You each have quite a task 
ahead of you, don’t you?
	You have been well trained for it.

	Jill:  I certainly feel that is true.  I know who I am, this 
precious beloved child of my Father, and therefore I know that I am 
given the wisdom and understanding that is pertinent to my 
personality to allow my self to be my Father’s Will in every eventual 
moment.  It is such a Joy to know who I am and to know it is OK to be 
this Child of God.  

	AARON: This is The Discovery that each must experience for 
themselves.  It is the experience that makes possible so much more in 
your life.  
	Thank you class.  It has been my joy to speak with you this evening. 
 I do so look forward to these weekly gatherings, these weekly 
classes.  I will retire now.

	There may be others willing to address you this evening.  If you 
would care to take a short break we won’t be far away.

(A short break ensued.)

	ELENA (T/R JILL):  Greetings one and all.  This is Elena, Jill’s 
personal teacher.

	It’s a pleasure to sit in on the session tonight and I wanted to 
take this opportunity to add another perspective regarding the open 
act of Worship and Gratefulness to our Father. 
 
	What I observe as quite normal for those of you on Urantia who have 
become conscious seekers of Truth, Beauty and Goodness, is that your 
initial step tends to be an intellectual one.  This is normal, for 
you are cognitive beings seeking active Spiritization.  Your 
intellectual ability and your cognitive processing can define and 
describe many experiences.  However, to feel Gratefulness is exactly 
that.  An Emotion.  You will not be able to truly Worship the Father 
until you take all that you have learned cognitively and move into 
Passion for what you know to be True, Good and Beautiful.  There is 
no way to be Grateful intellectually.  

	Think about that this week if you will.  And when your thoughts are 
exhausted and you still cannot define Gratefulness in a satisfactory 
way, then still your mind and open your Heart.  Feel.  Emotionally 
remember the many wondrous experiences that you have had through your 
five senses, through your creative processes, your creative 
expressions.  Feel Love for that creative person you are, for that 
creative consciousness within you that allows you to feel.  Therein 
lies the secret to beginning the walk on the pathway to Gratefulness 
and Worship for our Father whom is the only one capable of giving us 
the gift of Passion.  For you see, Passion is Alive, it is not a 
brain function.  Journey down your own pathway of Passion.  Feel and 
own the Love your Father has for You, and the words and thoughts of 
Worship and Gratefulness will begin to flow.  May you all know this 
Joy and Peace as you travel your Pathway.  

	I thank you for this opportunity to share my message.
