St Teresa
of the child Jesus
Jesus called
a little child and say the child in
front of them. Then He said, "I
tell you solemnly, unless you change
and become like little children you
will never enter the Kingdom of Heaven"
Matthew 18:3
As the child seeks his direction,
knowledge and understanding from
those who tend and teach him so
must each one of the Father's children
seek from Him. Regarding the comings
and goings of everyday life, the
right reaction to occasion and circumstance
and in the deeper things of heart
and mind, all must be found through
a patient and loving waiting upon
the Father's will.
And when that is found and understood,
there must be singleness of mind
and purpose in following it through
in the light of Our Holy Spirit
and the power of My Indwelling.
First is the earnest desire to
know the Father's will, then a trusting
commitment to the fulfilling of
it in every respect, and finally
the faithful following through with
the flexibility of uncompromising
love.
Have faith and confidence in the
reality of the power of love to
accomplish all that the Father wills
and purposes, and commit your whole
self to its challenge and to the
encompassing of the Father's panoply
of Presence.
