1 Samuel 8:4-7, 10-20. Mark 1-12

Listen to the word the Father speaks and obey it: therein is knowledge, direction and progress in the way of life eternal. The nations of the world are divided – there is no peace within the heart and mind of the sons of men who seek only their own well-being and have no appetite for truth and service of the Most High and their brothers and their sisters near and far, though some there are in every place and race and dispensation – and none – who give themselves to do what they are given to do in service of the one and many. They have their reward in time and are honoured by the Most High in the perfection and fulfilment of eternity.

Seek the will of the Most High in all things, great and small: I speak to every one of the Father’s beloved sons and daughters. In private life and public service His will is to be found and the way opened to the faithful and the true of heart who follow in the steps of the Son of Man as they led and guided by Our Holy Spirit.
