Christmas 2015
Two thousand years ago the embodiment of Infinite Loving
Kindness walked the earth in flesh and bone. He not only loved all who he met,
he permeated the entire realm with the love of our God. In this way all that
live in flesh and bone live also in the embrace of God’s unspeakable
tenderness. His life was the revelation of what God would be like in human
form. So astounding was this two thousand years later we still find it
difficult to accept.
However it is even more surprising that our Lord, as man
promised us we too can embody His incomprehensible goodness. Further, we do not
have to do anything to qualify to be walking, talking channels of blessings.
Having been created in the image and likeness of our Lord we are already His.
We need only to believe sufficiently so that we behave as love incarnate. All that separates us from being the
embodiment of Infinite Love is our attitude. Once it has been set aside all
that is good, all that is holy, all that our Jesus permeated the realm with
will pour in to each of us.
Where may we begin? Our Prince showed us by example, he
promised we can become as he. Who do we believe? Do we believe the promises of
Love made man or do we believe our fears of inadequacy? Let us hold up these
two beside each other, the word of our holy treasure and the voice of fear
calling from within each of us. Which seems more credible? If the promise of
Infinite Love seems more reliable then where do we begin to set our fears
aside? In our acts, in our deeds there will Eternity find a home. Just being kind, one to the other is the
beginning and the end of our journey. For kindness, tenderness and compassion
are the hallmarks of Eternal Love. When we so behave the living love with which
our Jesus permeated the entire realm pours out through us. In this way the
promise comes to fruition, we become that which we would worship and He becomes
us.
As we go about our daily doings at this Christmastime let
us remember we are His; the children of Infinite Loving Kindness. May we
remember the promises of our Prince and behave as if they have already come
true. For if we so live they will have become true. They will have found a home
in our life and we may begin to live up to our heritage.
May God bless you endlessly and awaken within you a sense
of your own divinity.
