Father Son and Holy Spirit is always aware of the world which is God's creation. Isaiah knows only the Father and even so expects from him the Mercy that Jesus brings into the world. God makes another free gift to the peoples of the earth the Holy Spirit inspired the religion of the Old Testament and still inspires it to this day. Isaiah knows that those who have lived and died even in oppression but still welcoming the will of the Father will arise into the prfection of being that God's mercy brings to us.

We can never be deceived by God's words. Jesus tells me that his pathway to heaven is gentle and the share of the burden of redemption he assigns to his beloved chidren is not heavy. Words are always easy to utter but their reality is harder to handle. I must look as did St Therese of Liseaux for the "Little Way" that I am able to follow without deviating into sanctimonious self deception. Jesus knows that we are always beset by the temptations of  devil world and flesh but he has shouldered the whole burden of sin and by his life, death and resurrection created the Sacramental way to Life that is in the guardianship of the Church.

At this moment I am really trying to justify the messy corruption that comes into my mind at the mere mention of Church. We are never deceived by God but that has never been true of his ministers on earth. God cannot lie for he is Truth. I can choose between God and Devil. Life or Death. Heaven or Hell. Faith or Mamon. Spirit or Material and in these choices I am not alone for Jesus promises us the Grace from the Father to make the yoke easy and the burden light for the humble of heart.

Dear Lord in the perfection of your being there is nothing that you lack or need. In the freedom that you have given to all humanity I am totally in need of your grace which is available for all who seek you out. May our mother Mary who is now with you support my petitions that I may learn to lead a holy life which can become as natural as breathing. Let thy will be done.
