……..Through
Jesus Christ Our Lord………
So you pray in the many
prayers you address to the
Father. And so has the Church
prayed down the ages. And
it is right that this should
be done, for I gather up
and present to the Father
in My redeeming love all
that is given me to offer
by the children of the Father.
But those who seek My aid
in this great cosmic work
should let Me reveal more
of Myself, of the love which
is the meaning of all things,
and of the ways which the
Father's ongoing, dynamic
purpose of all-embracing
love are to be realised.
And the key is in My life,
My teaching, My ministry;
for each and every life
of the Father's children
should be a reflected pattern
of My life. And the power
and all-embracing love,
through Our Holy Spirit,
enables this pattern to
be realised as each soul
makes itself ready and open
to receive it. Each pattern
differs from the next, but
possesses a likeness which
unites it with the whole,
and without the whole is
incomplete.
So the refrain ending the
prayer of each disciple
of Me must be understood
in depth: not only is the
suppliant asking for my
intercessory aid before
the Father, he is also identifying
himself with the great cosmic
purpose of redemption and
resurrection which centres
and suffers and triumphs
in and through my Person.
Even so do I glorify he
Father. Even so is Our love
made perfect in Perfect
Union.
