Romans 12:2And be not conformed to this world; but be reformed in the newness of your mind, that you may prove what is the good, and the acceptable, and the perfect will of God.
Reflection by Sr. Dominica:
One who has drifted to different avenues and needs the comfort of truth given by love, comes to the presence of the Father. Seeking safety to bring us what has been within us from before time, the spirit returning home to the one who gives the trueness of direction without denial even when error is made within spirit. The calmness that surrounds one is like the beginning when the maker thought of our presence and we were there. No doubts, no discouragement, nothing earthly recognized just what he gave us: love, strength, and truth. Surrounding self with the freshness of heart that is the opening mist that showers our being with the newness of direction and as we allow this to happen a security brings us forth to continue the journey we had prepared for us.
As the flowers greet the sun to warm themselves and looking for the rain to quench their thirst, we must open our hearts again to the light that brings clearness and the words that bring truth that quenches our desires to be with the love of our heart, our creator.
The Father brings a nearness of heart to those who reach for his love. He allows each to feel the breeze that brings a freshness and newness to all creation and allows growth. With him all can go forth with ease without hesitation for trust given directly brings a security of strength that allows spirit to know the truth which gives complete faith. Feel his presence, feel the comfort of love like the softness of a cloud, the freshness of a rainy day, the warmth of the sun. All this is given from him who is our creator.
Stay focused allowing nothing to distract you from what you are. For you belong to him. We are his, for we all were formed from his thoughts. This is where we began and now this is where we are for he is our instructor for he knows all and will love us forever.
