Those who feel we are strong and prove it on the battlefield of life, those who successfully acquire wealth and importance in this world (this applies equally to the institutional Church) have a disadvatage when facing the reality that is the Eternity of Father Son and Holy Spirit. Jesus reveals himself the Father to those who are genuinely little ones. Those who have been gifted with Christian humility and not by their  own will but by a convesion of the heart beat their breasts always in recognition of their sins and seeking the forgiveness of our God.

Assyria will be destroyed and Isaiah attributes this cycle of History to the direct intevention of God. Today it has been revealed that at the limits of the Universe a photograph of the act of creation has been made. Can the telesecopic camera know more than the men who made it or the men who use it and interpret the data collected? We who look at this photograph are each one of us in our own particular individuality known by the same Creator whose works fill us with complete dumbstruck awe.

All the works of man are created out of matter, all the wonderous works of God that we see now in awe are of the same matter and  they will crumble to the same dust from which we are made. The  Life promised by the Evergreater will continue for those who know that everything we have, everything we know, everything that is belongs to God who loves the deceitful puny little creatures that we are and has given us power to recognise Beauty, Truth and Life in the freedom of our own Beings.

Dear Lord forgive the sins of our world and let us not be destroyed by challenging your revelation. Humanity must have some value in your eyes for the Son is incarnate in the flesh of that same Humanity. Let me not be smothered in a piety striving after holiness but let me stand in naked humility before you striving to answer your call, soul to its maker. May Mary and all the Saints by their prayers support us all as we make our ways through the snares of life.
