Your know
how generous Our Lord Jesus Christ
has been: He was rich, yet for your
sake He became poor so that through
His poverty you might become rich.
2 Corinthians
8:9
True wealth is to be found in receiving
and in giving the Father's love.
It is His will and loving purpose
to pour into the hearts and minds
of His beloved children that which
is the very substance of His Being.
And all that is required that they
may receive it is a searching, open
mind and a heart and will ready
to commit the total self to Our
approaches and Our call to service.
As each responds in faithfulness
and trust, offering his faults and
failures to Our forgiving love,
so is he perfected and fulfilled
at the end. All is accomplished
through Our saving, sanctifying
love and through the power of Our
Indwelling. This is the wealth received
and experienced by countless numbers
of the Father's children since time
began, so will it be until the end
of time.
For this I laid aside the glory
of the Father's Presence and humbly
lived a human life. I was obedient
to the Father's loving purpose:
so through My life and death He
brought My humanity back to His
glorious Presence. There I both
glorify His Holy Name in everlasting
joy and through My perfect humanity
and saving love draw His beloved
ones who walk in faith and trust
into His Presence there to rejoice
for evermore.
