Meditations

Up dated: 12 Dec 2001

All the faithful are not called to the public ministry; but whoever are, are called to minister of that which they have tasted and handled spiritualy.                                                                      John Woolman

God is like a loving parent, having cast his treasures upon the earth for us to find.

We make our own evil, we are our own demons.  The Lord is a God of Love.  We cause our own hardships.  The Lord needs not punish, we punish ourselves.

In seeking the brilliant light, I found an empty chasm.  In this chasm, a silent cold air, like the exhalations of the dead surrounded me. Ever-dark; Ever-silent, I in fear walked this path to which I was lead deeper into the world of the dead. These tunnels became a maze of hidden chambers, and enormous networks of stagnet pools,. The journey of life is but a metaphor of finite death and never ending cycles.

I have come to you in your hour of need.  I have come to you in the dark shadows of your sleep.  I am in the bright awareness of your eyes, and in the dark stupor of your own ignorance. Like a whisper, I have called to you.  I have seen your fears, I know your heart. I to was alone and all around me was darkness.  Yet I did not know the darkness. I realized I was the darkness. So; to understand the Darkness I created the light.  I became the light. In the first dawn there was only silence. There was only my wisdom. Yet now it is your fears that await you in that silence.  Here and only here are you alone.

We minister to our children through our actions and deeds.  Our actions tell our children about our true beliefs.  So the true question is are we the type of people we want our children to be?  Our children can not see God.  They see us!  Our function is not to describe God's love or to talk endlessly about God's love, but to reflect God's love so that our children can see and feel it themselves!

What you do today is more important than what you did yesterday or what you will do tomarrow.
