1 Sam 15:16-23. Mark 2:18-22

The Father's loving purpose is for all the sons of men. He calls each one born into the world to follow in the way that he is led and guided. And how is he to identify the way as he treads out his mortal life? By earnestly desiring the right way, and in integrity and self-giving. I am the Way, the Truth, the Life: all who seek My Presence in their heart and mind are given the orientation for right action and the light and power to take it . When they fail or fall along the way they are restored by Our saving, sanctifying love as they seek restoration. So may they grow through their experience.

Rejoice in all the Father gives, and enjoy it to the full. Time and opportunity are given for service and discipline in life and living as each is led and guided.

Let time and place be set aside by all for prayer and meditation: this is the lifeblood of the soul's well being and growth. Through it the Father's will and loving purpose is identified and , through the power of My Indwelling and the light and guiding of Our Holy Spirit , gradually related to in faith and self-giving.
