We all have access to God's will for us when we have hearts and minds that are truly open to the Word, when we know and accept the revelation that has already been completed. We do not have to struggle against the deceptions of men. The words of scripture are addressed to each of us and have always been the way, the truth and the life. Is it possible for there to be anything in this world greater than the Resurrection?

St Paul not only has been overpowered by his glimpses of eternity he has also entered into the depths of the mystery that is the unseen being that we call soul and for many of us is so overpoweringly absolute that we prefer to ignore it and then deny its existence.

Jesus, Incarnate IAMFATHERSONHOLYSPIRIT, lived as revealed Son for only three years and for each moment of those years delivered the same message. "Be awake" for the absolute that is the centre of our being is not of this world, but a soul which we can never understand but must accept as a reality that is also a responsibility that we have to nurture and keep alert for, although we are free, our eternal soul is only ours to control for the limited "real-time" that is always passing away without check.

Many are the pursuits that we can follow to fill this time and avoid our God-given responsibility. Most of us have thick layers of self-deceit, "fig leaves" to hide our nakedness but we cannot ever avoid the  oversight of God and at our life's end will have to answer for the many occasions we have defied God and followed the wise and the clever into the supermarkets of Mammon to acquire one of the many bespoke millstones that are always on offer in this world.

Dear Lord, let me continue my efforts to be a witness to you in this world. Help me to be consistent in my prayers. Help me to shut up and listen for your response and not confuse it in the "pagan babble" you warned us about. Prayer is doing your will on earth as it is done by Our Lady and the untold numbers of your saints in Heaven. May all those dying as I write this receive your mercy may the penance of the Holy Souls become acceptable so that they too may join you in the peace of being that is your Glory and completed perfection of lifetimes spent in awareness that you are God who creates us to choose to be your image and likeness. Amen
