Using many
parables, Jesus spoke the word to
His Disciples, so far as they were
capable of understanding it. He would
not speak to them except in parables,
but He explained everything to His
Disciples when they were alone
Mark
4:31
Busyness is the enemy of progress
in the life of the soul. All that
occurs in life is parable, needing
interpretation and explanation at
the heart's centre. And I wait constantly
at the centre of each and every
child of the Father to relate all
things to the pattern of His unfailing
love and good purpose, and to give
food and sustenance for the wayfaring.
Our loving Holy Spirit yearns to
give light and guiding along the
way,
But all must be desired and sought.
The Father's courteous love does
not impose itself upon those who
do not desire it. He waits with
longing which no human child can
ever know for that turning towards
His liberating love which enables
the operation of His ongoing, loving
purpose. So there are few things
in life more necessary than a daily
quiet waiting in His Presence and
the constant offering of all life's
encounters as they are experienced
and suffered. And there I present
each suppliant child to the loving
Father in the totality of My saving
Love.
