The
Spirit of the Lord God is
upon me...because He has sent
Me to bind up the broken-hearted...
Isaiah
61:1
The Lord of the Father
all is upon all things.
And his Spirit directs according
to his loving dynamic purpose.
With compassion He approaches
those who suffer in the
way and He is continually
present with those who accept
His approach. Those who
reject He watches over,
waiting for the invitation
to console and strengthen.
And those who look and
listen for the sound of
gentle stillness, the peace
beyond the storm, find strength
and orientation. Despite
their fragility and often
because of it they find
a new and surer way of meeting
the contrary situations
of life the anguish and
heartbreak. And in finding
they find the Source of
all life, the point and
purpose of the race, comfort
and satisfaction which matures
into joy.
And so they become the
means by which others are
cheered, comforted, strengthened
and sent on their way rejoicing.
The Spirit of the Lord so
operates in love that there
is no limit to its activity
save sin and perversity.
No situation nor circumstance
need separate the child
of the Father from his destiny,
that is to rejoice in the
Father's Presence both now
and in Eternity. And I operate
ceaselessly by virtue of
My saving love to make this
known and attainable and
a reality to the Fathers'
beloved children.
