Jesus said,
"Every scribe who becomes a disciple
of the kingdom of Heaven is like a
householder who brings out from his
storeroom things both new and old"
Matthew
13:51
All must learn the tradition of
received wisdom at their mother's
knee, and as they grow to adulthood
each tribe and race has in its corporate
possession much that is good in
teaching of the truth behind the
universe and in a just and compassionate
way of living. All has been imparted
where it is sought.
But there is no progress without
daily attention to that which each
child of the Father is being communicated.
Our lively Spirit confronts, challenges,
consoles and sanctifies as life
is lived. No-one is outside the
touch of Our hand, the strong, warm
embrace of Our arm unless he excludes
himself by choice. Life is for living
and for embarking on a sea of change.
But the sea is the Father's charted
waters, and no part is outside His
knowledge and caring love.
So within the tradition of past
knowledge and wisdom, and an increasingly
sensitive mind and heart attuned
to the voice and touch of your Heavenly
Father, the committed child of the
Father arrives in due time in the
haven where he would be, in the
presence of the Heavenly hosts.
