Sunday, December 16th
Now is the time for the turning
of the one and the many from those
things which are not profitable
and which build up neither the soul
nor the community. And how is the
individual and group to know what
is profitable save by opening heart
and mind to the Spirit of Truth
and by following the lead which
is always there to be found? So
many of the Father's beloved children
are without light and direction
because they do not pursue those
things which belong to their peace
But judgement is now, for the time
will not come again. The opportunities
for service and self-giving once
past will not return. Time is not
limitless, eternity, for ever. So
let each and every beloved child
of the Father offer himself now
in loving surrender to the Father's
purpose for him and for his world,
and let each moment and activity
be lived out in faithful, trusting
offering of himself and of those
with whom he associates and identifies.
And as each so offers, so will each
be sustained and progressed, for
this is the Father's will and good
purpose.
And at the end of time I present
the faithful in love to the Father's
joyful Presence there to rejoice
in fellowship for evermore.
