                                            Matthew 
                                            21:23-27  
                                            All who desire to know Truth and 
                                              to act in the power of it are given 
                                              to know and understand that which 
                                              their mind seeks and desires. Little 
                                              by little, as they react to the 
                                              light which they find along the 
                                              way, and respond to the challenges 
                                              and opportunities which they meet 
                                              in the way they are given the truth 
                                              which they seek and the strength 
                                              and power to take up those things 
                                              which they are required and to identify 
                                              with the Father's loving purpose. 
                                              As they progress in single-minded 
                                              commitment so do the fruits of their 
                                              labour increase. And so does the 
                                              knowledge of the truth and the power 
                                              which enlightens, motivates and 
                                              progresses their life and work. 
                                              This can be seen most clearly in 
                                              the lives of My saints.
                                            But many there are who do not desire 
                                              the truth which could make them 
                                              free to find and follow, progress 
                                              and rejoice in the fulfilment which 
                                              the Father purposes for them. Some 
                                              of these have not progressed beyond 
                                              their immature thoughts and understanding. 
                                              Others are lost in devious and perverse 
                                              ways. I am the Way, the Truth and 
                                              the life. Every one who desires 
                                              and seeks truth I direct in the 
                                              way and incorporate into eternal 
                                              life as he walks in faith and loving 
                                              trust.
