Work your love and peace in my heart that I may use your gift of time
to work with others and share your gospel of peace. Amen

Message of the Day

From: A Daily Spiritual Seed
phil@shalomplace.com

The one who seeks God in everything is sure to find God in everything.
When we thus live wholly unto God, God is wholly ours, and we are then happy
in all the happiness of God; for by uniting with Him in heart, and will, and spirit,
we are united to all that He is and has in Himself. This is the purity
and perfection of life that we pray for in the Lord’s Prayer, that:
God’s kingdom may come and His will be done in us, as it is in Heaven.
And this we may be sure is not only necessary, but attainable by us,
or our Saviour would not have made it a part of our daily prayer.
- William Law (1686-1761)

(". . . we are then happy in all the happiness of God." Is this what you seek?)
