All I want
is to know Christ and the power of
His resurrection and to share His
sufferings by reproducing the pattern
of His death.
Philippians 3:10
There is a knowing which is of
the mind, a knowledge of things
seen and tangibly perceived. This
is the Father’s gift to every
one of His beloved children that
they may independently live within
the world he gave them, co-operate
with each other and lovingly relate
to all.
But as each grows into maturity
within the Father’s world
he is presented with the knowledge
of a reality beyond their present
finite world. There is within each
soul a yearning, planted by the
Father to seek that which challenges
the mind and heart and will, to
discover it, and as it is perceived
– however dimly- to follow
where it leads. And nothing satisfies
the human soul until that yearning
is identified and responded to.
I am the Way, the knowledge and
the power to follow. I am the Life,
and through My death and risen life
I offer both the means and the fulfilment
of becoming and of doing all that
the Father wills and purposes for
each and everyone of His beloved
children.
Be faithfully committed, then,
to the pattern of my life and in
My sufferings that you may be with
Me, the Father and with Holy Spirit
through all eternity.
