Jesus said, "…..He who is not with Me is against me,
and he who does not gather with Me scatters"
Luke 11:23

The Heavenly Father is creator of all that lives or ever will . And each and every created entity has a place and purpose in His whole glorious purpose of joyful fulfilment. His human creation has a unique place in this cosmic plan ; for each and every one of his children it is given to share in His creative process, in the light of Our Holy Spirit and in the power of my incarnate, redeeming, risen life. And as each child emerges from youth through adolescence to manhood he is accompanied by Our saving, enabling Presence, signalling in many and various ways the direction he is required to take in the circumstance of his life. Our Presence never departs never departs from him unless driven away by persistent evil choice . Where circumstances are contrary in any way Our loving hold and lead is stronger , and Our dynamic and direction working in the hearts and minds of the faithfully committed in love bring help and succour.
Whenever loving service if offered to the needy of any description there is Our Presence ; those who aid the needy and the lonely, the lost and the reprobate are working in and through Our loving purpose to gather in to the Father's kingdom those whom they seek to serve. And he who does not seek to be used in such a way , through the prayer of intercession and through such action in love which is put in his way is a stumbling block to himself and to those with whom he has to do.
