St. Francis
of Assisi
Jesus exclaimed,
" Everything has been entrusted
to Me by the Father, and no-one knows
the Son except the Father, just asno-0ne
knows the Father except the Son and
those to whom the Son chooses to reveal
Him"
Matthew
11:27
The Son is the perfect, complete,
eternally fulfilling expression
of the Father's love. From time
immemorial and throughout eternity
the Father has revealed His love
dynamically and purposefully through
His Son whom he has made co-partner
in creation . And the dynamic, active
power of His cosmic love is the
Spirit which issues from the bonding
and perpetually charges and recharges
all that stays within its orbit.
So the one great work of each and
every part of the sentient creation
is to become a living part of the
perpetual act of love which pulsates
continually in the Universe. In
the great dance of progressive joy
in depth all are called to participate.
And because such a glorious work
and destiny must be freely accepted
and embraced there has from the
beginning of time been the option
of refusal and rebellion . So I
lived and suffered and died . Yet
the suffering and death is but the
reverse side of joy. So do I call
My beloved ones to identify with
Me in joyful sorrow and sorrowful
joy. For have I not risen from the
dead ? And am I not alive and lovingly
present in the lives of My beloved
followers in all ages, races and
traditions? So do I reveal the Father's
love and loving purpose, for I am
the Supreme Manifestation of it.
