Jesus said
to His Disciples. !It is not those
who say to Me Lord, Lord, who will
enter the Kingdom of Heaven, but the
person who does the will of My Father
in Heaven."
Matthew
7:21
See how I showed in My life, My
teaching, and My death, the way
of obedience to the Father's will.
It is the only sure and safe way
to travel life's way to fulfilment
of life and personality.
There must be a search for truth
and integrity, with a commitment
to all that the search reveals.
And faith and hope most daily be
renewed. Let no child of the Father
who is committed to His will imagine
that they may pursue the elusive
prey of happiness as the world conceives
it: therein lies peril, stagnation
and loss of direction and purpose.
Happiness is an erstwhile companion,
and man is designed for joy. Better
to walk with the Son of Man in pain
and seeming loss than walk the path
of uncommitted selfhood apart from
the Father's will and blessing.
Seek His will in all things, and
the knowledge and means to fulfil
it through My indwelling and the
light of Our Holy Spirit. Then you
will know the peace which passes
all knowledge, whate'er betides.
