Jesus went into the Temple and began to cast out those who were selling. "According to Scripture", He said, "My house will be a house of prayer. But you have made it into a robbers' den"
Luke 19:45-46

Learn to enjoy together and alone the approaches you make to your Heavenly Father in prayer and praise and thanksgiving. Let your Church become a place where you put aside the everyday cares and anxieties and demands of everyday life to share the beauty of holiness which is always there just beyond the limits of your finite mind. Work to banish all that is contrary to peace in your mind: let the peace which passes all knowledge prepare your heart and mid to worship and entertain the Lord of Life.

And when you emerge from the Father's house recall that you are a dwelling place of the Most High so long as your heart is pure and your mind and will committed to serve His loving purpose. Let Our Holy Spirit guide and My Presence fill you for life in the continued commitment to that which you are given to be and do.

Recall, too, that the whole world is the dwelling place of your Heavenly Father, defaced though many have made it by neglect, selfishness and the wrong use of the earth's richness. Listen and look for expressions of the Father's joy and loving purpose which abound in the world around you. So identify that you yourself become a part of His joy and loving purpose, reflecting His Presence.
