Jesus
said, "I am the resurrection
and he life".
John 11:25
The source of all life,
He who is, gives life according
to the need. And there is
a natural life and the supranatural
life. All living things
share the natural life;
those who do not allow to
grow and develop in them
the gift of supranatural
life are denying their humanity,
for all are children of
the Father. The birthright
of supranatural life is
the potential of life in
the Spirit which the Father
has given Me to train and
tend.
At the door of each and
every soul I wait for admittance.
When invited to enter I
bring the life of Our Holy
Spirit which grows within
according to the response
to Our gift. And essential
and health-giving response
is a dying to triviality,
to purposeless living, and
above all to selfishness
and self-sufficiency.
Trust, faithfulness and
loving commitment: these
are the qualities I seek
to kindle in the responsive
soul. They are the bedrock
of life in Me and so of
the service of the Father.
And the dying to self must
be a continuous, daily process
if the power of My resurrection
life is to prosper and grow.
Continually I minister and
train and tend that life
which not only completes
and matures the true self,
enables that to be accomplished
which the Father will, but
also brings that person
through life's glorious
challenges to life eternal
and the Father's presence.
