Isaiah asks "The Lord is coming to my help, who will dare to condemn me?" This sentence seems to express perfect faith that is untroubled and constant. Some of the sentences that I have left behind imply the same unswerving constancy of devotion to Father, Son and Holy Spirit and belief in the mystical support of Mary and all the Saints.

I am sure that Isaiah did not always hit the target set by the inspiration he received. Only one man has ever lived out a full life without sin. Jesus has become man so that his being is able to take on the burden of Sin. 

How can we know the perfection that is God? We can only catch the glimpses he reveals of himself. God has the ever greater potential of his total freedom and could use this power to make sure that none of us would sin no more but thus live a restricted life of "On and Off" as does our "artificial intelligence", an encoded automaton.

Father, Son and Holy Spirit in their perfect relationship create nothing but Love and freedom and have expressed this in this creation, there may be others too of which we know not, and have entrusted us to go forth and multiply the image and likeness of One God, not by force but by human will aligned to the Ever-greater.

All that can be known about Our God is restricted in each one of us by our reaching out to him. We cannot be encoded to Love God but we do have the perfect human freedom to choose to live as did the Son whose being on earth was the humanity he received from Mary.

I know that in my lifetime I have failed many times to follow the Lord, "do this in imitation of me", but still have the time to become truly repentant as there is no end to the goodness and mercy that was betrayed then, not only by Judas and Peter, and can still be betrayed by my sins and the sins of all the world.

Dear Lord, Let me be totally open to your grace this day and aim to follow you in the life you lived only for others. We are the others and your infinite Love and Mercy are there for us to take into our hearts. May my soul find the grace in the fellowship of all believers living and dead and may this Communion of Saints be defended by the prayers of Mary and the heavenly host so that we and the Holy Souls might all benefit from your Mercy. Amen.
