The glory of the world,
its beauty and joy in all
its many-faceted faces,
has to be looked for with
patience, sensitivity and
understanding. When a child
of the Father grows in the
life and love of His Kingdom
that child sees the world
as a projection, an image
of the wonder and beauty
of love of the Father Himself.
Every aspect of the natural
world reflects the peace
and the beauty, the grandeur
and the permanence of the
Eternal Kingdom.
Where the seeking, faithful
child of the Father sees
what he thinks to be anomalies
in this benign statement
of the Father's love in
Creation he looks not to
the mind for illumination
but to the will for commitment
and inspiration.
And as that child of the
Father commits his heart
and mind to worship that
which he sees and understands
, as he meditates in the
centre of his being, I,
the Word of the Father,
impart those truths which
can be found only in union
and communion ; and the
light of Our Holy Spirit
gives deeper understanding
, the power of our Holy
Spirit offers power to live
that which he sees by this
illumination and enables
him to do and to achieve
and suffer that which it
is given him to accomplish.
So it is with the whole
of the loving Father's creation;
beauty and joy and purpose
and the key to understanding
for all who persevere in
faith and in love.
