“You have misunderstood your mission
in My great plan. You have been
fulfilling your mission, while constantly waiting for your mission to be given
to you. There is no mission oracle to go
forth as a warrior in battle. Your
mission is the daily endurance of the human condition, yours and others. I have told you that I am not a God of the
extravagant and showy displays of My power.
I reveal Myself in whatever is meek, lowly, and hidden. Most of the time I am so ‘human’ in My works
that I go completely unnoticed.
The angels sigh in wonder as they see
men miss My beautiful acts of goodness and divine mercy to the sons of
men. Men walk by, oblivious to My truly
spectacular graces; the grace of the present moment, the gift of your life
breath, the seeing eye, the colorful landscape.
Man’s eye is fixed on whatever is beyond the next bend in the road,
always seeking new adventures and new experiences.
I dwell in the orderly life of a
faithful soul. Fidelity, temperance,
meekness, tranquility, and joy mark My presence. I am quiet and content, not striving to be
noticed or acclaimed. I am the invisible
helping hand, making all run smoothly behind the scenes, prodding My children
on in the ways of righteousness.
I am the smile of a baby, the song of
the bird, the wonder of a rainbow. I
lose Myself in the beauty of creation only to be found by those that seek Me
fervently and eagerly. They catch My
little subtleties and exclaim in child-like praise, “It is the Lord.”
These are the children of My inner
circle, those that play in the throne room, just desiring to be near Me. They know My gentleness and My smile of
satisfaction. They sense My nearness and
rest on My heart.
It is not hard to approach Me. My door is open to all My children. I glimpse at the doorway constantly, hoping
one of My wayward ones will remember Me and choose to come home to Me.
I am a Father in love with My
children. Need I say more?”
God,
The
Heart of a Father
