“To be a blessed child of God is the
highest calling. The steps of one called
by God print love marks in the earth.
They fragrance the air with beauty and holiness. They radiate heaven’s peace. They frustrate the evil designs of
Satan.
They are hard to track, for they blow
like the wind, carried by the Holy Spirit’s breath. They prefer silence to the world’s
glamour. They are hidden away from the
eyes of men praying down great gifts and favors from heaven. Life seems so very long for them, for they
are pilgrims on a journey. They follow
obediently the voice they cannot see and rejoice to do so. They seek an invisible reality, unseen by
mortal men. Their tastes have changed to
heavenly tastes. The earth has lost its
luster.
They follow a path unknown to them,
meekly accepting all they encounter as the blessed will of God. They are strong in spirit, rising above
tribulations and great trials. Their
eyes are fixed on God alone, as they walk their unique path in silence. They have tasted the goodness of the
Lord. Nothing on earth allures them
anymore. These souls of holiness are protecting
the world from God’s wrath at the devastating sinfulness that corrupts the
land. They are the leaven that keeps the
world in existence.
This drama of life, God’s will of
intention, will be played out until the final day of reckoning. Then the heavens will be displayed in great
majesty for all to see. The righteous
shall rejoice in that day. The wicked
shall tremble and fear. The day of the
Lord shall come as a thief in the night.
Prepare yourselves, O world of men!”
Jesus, God’s Justice
