In those days, although it seems that Abram is alone with God as Adam had been in the Garden, when he heard the voice of God, Abram was not alone in the world. Many more than one individual and civilization had come and gone from "Ur of the Chaldees" when Our Father began again to teach us how to live obedient and worshipful lives in the Light of his Supreme Being.
When I begin my daily response to my own consciousness and awareness of IAMFATHERSONHOLYSPIRIT I know that innumerable human beings are also alive today and many generations have come and gone. I know that at exactly this moment I can do as Jesus tells us all to do and find the "mote" that obscures me from the pure light that came to Abram so many centuries ago and has never been turned off since the beginning of time.
Today there is so much happening in the world that is so obviously contrary to the Love that overflows to become God's creation that I feel actually sick in my stomach and quite desperate that the ones I know and love are going to live on punished for the sins of their fathers.
I really am weak and frightened that I could be a "loser" not only in the eyes of the world but also in the sight of God. These are not just words. They are my real fear but as I write them I catch a glimpse of the hill outside the walls, long long ago in Palestine, where today man's wickedness rains down hateful death and destruction, where the weak and totally defeated Jesus, our love, creates from the pain of the cross the assurance of his Church of Love, the New Holy Family, the unfailing source of Grace that can never be defeated even though all the enemies of God unite as they have never done before, even when they killed God in the land he had given to their Father, Abram and have, during my lifetime, never ceased to disgrace by their arrogant selfish inhumanity.
Dear Lord, you know how your warning about "judging others" can so easily become the ignoring of evil to the extent of supporting it out of lack of trust in you. My Lord, you have never commended those who have ignored your commandments and told us all to pray for our enemies. I hope that I have no hatred for anything except the outstanding evils of my lifetime which are as much manifest today in the hateful actions of Jews as subjects as it was when they themselves suffered so much as objects of hatred.
We are still not making a very good job of doing your will on Earth. Help more of us to live in a way that shows a greater willingness to believe that it is still only by "loving our neighbour as ourselves" that we can "know, love and serve" and thus become people bearing a closer resemblance to what you intended us to be. Amen
