Dear Lord, You know that at this moment, I am overcome by my own sense of total weakness and futility confronted as I am with the incomprehensible vastness of Your Creation. Yet, even my puny self is able to know and somewhat understand the difference between the knowledge we have found out for ourselves, and what you have revealed to us.

I do know that I have a brain and that controls my body and can be analysed and probed in its physical reality by the Scientifically Enlightened, the Learned and Clever of the last three or so centuries.

I also know that I have consciousness that is aware that it is an immortal "image and likeness" created and revealed by the Love that is IAMFATHERSONHOLYSPIRIT forever in the True Reality, that is the Your Holy Mind.

It is this consciousness my own "iam" that reads today's mass readings.

I can experience the guilt that almost paralyses his brothers when Joseph reveals himself to them and the simultaneous joy of Joseph's forgiveness, the loving mercy that is God's participation in that historical event  recorded in the Scriptures.

I am inspired to the piety that is the liturgical beauty of the Psalm for we have no words that can record the "wonder" that is safety and peace in the You.

I too receive the mission given to the Apostles that enables us all to live to the full the life that we have been "loved" into being to complete. The Garden, Covenants and Law are completed by the Life, Death and Resurrection of our Incarnate God.

I am still, tiny, weak, puny, insignificant and pathetic but never "futile" when I put all my trust, belief and faith in "Our Father".

May my sins and the sins of the whole world continue to be forgiven and may we all become as children putting their hands into those of their parents with the undoubting confidence of unconditional love. Amen.
