All that we know about God and his purpose in creating our beings is imparted to us by the Old and New Testaments of the Bible. St John tells us that when Jesus returns we shall see him as he really is because we shall all be like him. St Paul gives us the same message when tells us that at the end of time God will be "all in all ".

The Apostles and their first followers were all separate individual persons who recognised that the longing for permanence in the depths of their beings could only be satisfied by the reality of IAMIAM who during their times was revealing himself to be IAMFATHERSONHOLYSPIRIT the source of loving perfection that could be recognised and worshipped by our human intellect. 

They all preached the New Life of the Resurrection. 

Thus the bedrock of my life today is the belief that I am alive as a thinking human being because God loves me. I know that the things about me, and I too, are real but will all pass away. The words that are now appearing on the screen come from my being that tells me it needs to conform itself to the revelations of its creator.

Not only can I know, love and serve but also have the obligation to do so. I can become holy because the Son of God is "The lamb that takes away the sins of the world" and by the sacrifice of Son on Calvary, Our Father creates the grace that Holy Spirit brings as spiritual food to maintain the loving freedom that we create as the "Mystical Body of Christ" in spite of the Devil, World and the Flesh always biting at our heels to bring us into the pain of the Nothing that is separation from the Joy of life with the All-in-All.

Dear Lord, may I continue to open myself to your grace which never ceases to seek out the souls that have been closed off to you. It is human will that chooses to ignore your revelations and continue living in defiance of your Commandments. Let me practise sincere repentance for all past sins and share in the pains that you endured to enable me to become again the being created to know, love and serve not because I seek any future reward  but because I truly know that serving you in sincerity is itself a grace far greater than anything of which I can be worthy. May my prayers join those of Mary and all the saints in seeking grace for us sinners here on earth and for the Holy Souls who can suffer happily for they now know the justice of their punishment that will have an end.
