Trust

We have had a long and stormy winter, and spring waiting unpent in time. These storms are reflected  in our souls, and we can only marvel at the twists and turns involved. TSo do otherwise would be to weaken resolve and test faith when it was  unnecessary. God's Will will be done, and we ought to seek Him out while it is possible.

He insists that His Will be done, not for the sake of domination, but for the sake of the salvation of  our souls. We are blind when it comes to trying to see spiritual realities, and  our guides are  uncertain, and God never waivers. Certainty is elusive, so we dare not place our faith anywhere but God.

Anyone who is doubtful or lacks trust, should ask earnestly for  it, and stay very near Him. This is accomplished by merely desiring it, for He wishes us to trust Him. He will set our feet on solid grounds and our keep us safe from false paths, so we follow Him with fidelity.

How shall we proceed  on  life otherwise, with the horizon forever at a distance from us and subject to the mists of time? Is there any certainty in life without Him?

We were born into life from our mother's womb, and we felt certainty in her embrace, so that we learned that to become fully human we must watch her every move and always seek our comfort at her breasts. As we grew up, we learned to trust our parents and be  unafraid of things harmful in the world. As we have been reborn we must learn to trust.

Seek the garden of His solitude, and listen in the silence as you have always done, and your hands will be strong enough  to share in His passion.
