The writer of the Letter to the Hebrews had for some years after his personal conversion into following the Lord been contemplating the life, death and resurrection of Our Lord in the light of what he knew of IAMIAM revealed in the only scriptures that then existed.

He knows of angels as the messengers of God who entrusted them to carry his Word to the prophets of his favoured nation. He has come to understand that within his own lifetime Son of God, Jesus had for "a little while" in humility reduced his own being to be a "little less" than the angelic being which is with God beyond our created universe.

The "Word" is not only human words but much more in that he is the complete communication of the being of IAMFATHERHOLYSPIRIT to the souls who are embodied to live as the highest order of material being in Creation, that is known to all of us empirically by our bodily senses and spiritually by the souls of those who open their beings to receive the Love that is IAMFATHERSONHOLYSPIRT.

We can all choose to try to know what it means to live "Holy" lives. Jesus is the perfected human being and our example of virtue. There are billions of us yet "Our Father" knows us each in our personal uniqueness which he has created us to become by fulfilling his Will for us.

We are not all Jesuses. We are not all Marys.  We are not all St Thomases. We are not all St Francises or St Maximillian Kolbes. 

After the Apostolic Age, however we  are all those blessed ones who have not seen empirically but see by the eyes of faith which we live to  keep focussed on IAMFATHERSONHOLYSPIRIT.

Dear Lord, please accept these thoughts and words as my imperfect praise of you. I know that you did not create me to become the the sinful being that has marred much of my life. You know that I have always regretted my sinfulness. Help me to really know how the suffering on Calvary was increased by my personal sin. May I join with Mary and all the Saints in seeking forgiveness for us sinners on Earth and for the Holy Souls in Purgatory. Let me know how I can avoid the self-satisfaction that is ever a stumbling-block when I begin to pray. It is so easy for me to become a 21st Century Pharisee. Help me to overcome this grievous fault. Amen
