The Disciples
said to one another. "Who can
be saved?" Jesus gazed at them.
"For men", He said, "it
is impossible, but not for God: because
everything is possible for God."
Mark
10:27
The wise man knows his limitations
and the horizons of his capacity
and ability. He had no part in bringing
himself into the world and the moment
of his departure from it is not
his to determine. From birth to
death he is in varying ways dependent
upon his Heavenly Father to provide
all that is necessary for his survival,
growth and progress, and upon his
fellow-men and women.
Above all, the wise man perceives
that his graduation into that which
lies beyond the natural must be
desired and sought. And as his natural
life is the gift of the Father,
so with things spiritual: and as
he seeks so does he receive. I have
won for all the Father's sons and
daughters of all times and ages
the priceless gift of life eternal:
through My saving love all who desire
the truth and seek the strength
and power to walk in it receive
it at My hands. I am the Father's
love. All who respond in love and
self-giving to My saving, sanctifying
love are progressed through the
light and power of Our Holy Spirit
to the Father's Presence and at
the last rejoice with all the faithful
who have continued to the end.
