A Message from Father Vessels
Reflections for JAN 29, 4th of yr: Deut 18.15-20; 1Cor 2.6-9; MK 1.21-28
THE LORD SAID, 'I WILL RAISE UP FOR THEM A PROPHET, & PUT WORDS INTO HIS MOUTH; HE SHALL TELL THEM ALL THAT I COMMAND HIM. 'HE SPEAKS IN MY NAME.'
The people were astonished at his teaching! He taught them as one having authority.
DURING THE DAY
When sure of yourself, speak with authority. But humbly; willing to learn from another's point of view. Truth transcends the mind's capacity, & is always ready to expand.
ABOUT PRAYER
Prayer reminds one of one's ignorance. Prayer encourages the search for truth, & enhances the mind's capacity to recognize it, whatever the cost. Prayer enables one to pay the price.
