Leo the Great
Ecclesiasticus 39:8-14
Truth, knowledge, understanding,
wisdom: these qualities
are given to every one of
the Father’s beloved
sons and daughters responsive
to His word and faithful
in His love – in small
measure or in great - according
to capacity to receive them
and the Father’s loving
purpose. There is a wisdom
in the pure in heart of
the simple and unlettered
not known to those who do
not seek in humility, faith
and trust and self-giving.
Integrity of mind and heart
and commitment to truth
as it is revealed bring
one and all faithful in
the way to fulfilment and
perfection in the glorious
presence of Eternal Love
in the fulness of eternity.
I, the Father’s beloved
and loving Son, His Word
incarnate and Incarnate
Love, promise it. I am the
means and the fulfillment
in the Father’s will
and loving purpose. I am
the Way, the Truth, the
Life.
