Joel 4:12-23. Luke 11:27-28

It is written in Holy Scripture, ‘Thou salt keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on Thee because he trusteth in Thee’. (Isaiah 26:3) It is also written ‘Be still and know that I am God’ (Psalm 46:10), and also ‘do not merely listen to the word but do it also’ (James 1:22) through the light and guiding of Our Holy Spirit and the grace and power of my indwelling.

The ‘Valley of Decision’ is here and now and judgment or reward according to the response of the one and many to whom the word is spoken. All are self-judged or rewarded in the light and power of our redeeming, sanctifying love. Love is the reward and the way to and in eternal life - love for the Father, Lord of All Creation and love for His created world and for the sons and daughters of His love. I, the Father’s word incarnate and His incarnate love am the Way, the Truth, the Life and the means of progress to the Father in time and through eternity.
