Luke
8:8-15
The disposition of the heart and
mind is all-important for the progress
of the soul and for its growth in
holiness. A single-minded search
for truth is the first priority
with willingness to follow where
it leads, and as it is revealed
uncompromising commitment to it.
I am the search and the fulfilment,
and with Our Holy Spirit lead and
accompany all so committed.
Faithfulness in following brings
its own reward and success through
failures and adversities. And it
carves out within the heart and
mind a place for Our Indwelling.
So together We progress, the soul
increasingly enabled to encounter
and resist the empty blandishments
of worldliness.
Truth is continually proclaimed
to every child of man in a thousand
different ways, and We are constantly
at hand to interpret and to make
relevant for each. Some see it and
take it to themselves thus entering
the Father's Kingdom with all its
challenges and fulfilment, while
other choose to look at it without
commitment and so defeat the Father's
loving purpose for them.
