Friday, August 3rd
Coming to His home town, Jesus taught the people in the synagogue in such a way that they were astonished and said, " Where did the man get this wisdom and these miraculous powers ? This is the carpenter's son , surely ". And they would not accept Him
Matthew 13:54-57

In the life of every child of the Father the world over there is evidence of My Presence and My leading, also in group, community , tribe and nation. All that is needed for the progress of the one and many is a faithful following in the lead that is given ; even so will each and all be enabled to glorify their Heavenly Father and serve their fellowmen. So does the soul grow and prosper and mature, the committed collective thrive and the Father's kingdom extend its boundaries and influence.

Let each and every one of the sons of men learn and seek to understand that the sacred is ceaselessly alongside their daily life, waiting to be explored and followed each in his own way. Through My incarnation I have penetrated the heart of human existence ; by My suffering and death and resurrection I have offered a way of salvation and perfection in and through my saving love for people of all times and places.

The challenge of each is now in the context of each day and hour. Truth and love and enabling power are poured into the hearts of all who respond in faith and trust.
