Thou wilt
keep him in perfect peace whose mind
I stayed on Thee,
because he trusteth in Thee. Trust
in the Lord for ever
Isaiah
26:3, 4
Seek the Father's will in all things
and you will be rewarded with the
peace which passes knowledge and
the love beyond all human understanding.
Love will be your power for action
and peace the context and the consequence.
So has it been for all the faithful
and the true of heart down countless
ages and in every generation, despite
all setbacks, suffering, deprivation
and disappointments the faithfully
committed to the Father's will have
overcome each contrary circumstance,
and in so doing they have glorified
His Holy Name, and grown in spiritual
stature. Not that the victory has
always been apparent; obedience
is all and the faithfully committed
are content to leave all consequence
in their Heavenly Father's loving
hands.
The Father gives to all who seek
His will and loving purpose the
light to find, the power to follow.
His Holy Spirit illumines and My
Indwelling Presence is the means
of ultimate fulfilment and continuous
progression through Our saving,
sanctifying love.
Trust in the Lord for ever.
