Jesus said,
"Wisdom is justified by her deeds"
Matthew
11:19
The Father works and acts according
to His loving purpose in and throughout
history and in persons and lives
of His beloved children as He is
given leave. The history of the
years and the peoples before My
coming into the world reveals the
ongoing purpose of the loving intent,
bringing the tyrannous empires to
dust and their rulers to shame and
destruction. See how the worlds
of cruel power in the world today
have crumbled after only a few generations
of personal tyranny and evil overlordship
How much more evident and powerful
is the reverse side of this fact
of history, namely .the majesty
and the strength , the glory and
the beauty of the loving purpose
of the Father in all that has been
, is now and ever shall be . Nothing
is stronger or kinder than this
in the world of men, nothing more
powerful for good in the lives of
each and every one where there is
acceptance and identification. So
John the Baptist showed in his life
and teaching and witnessed to by
his death. Even so did I show in
My life, My ministry, My death and
My resurrection.
Let no child of the Father who
walks in the way put before him
in faith, in trust and in love be
discouraged by the apathy and often
hostile response to that which he
feels bound to express in his thoughts
and actions and in his living. Take
note that it was even so with the
herald of the Father's loving, Incarnate
Son as with the Son Himself, and
take heart in the sure knowledge
that "wisdom is justified in
her deeds".
