Reality however is found in Christ Jesus our Lord. And reality is a person, not just a life force I can manipulate to my will, but a good King to whom I submit my will. A shepherd King who lays His life down for the sheep and conquers death, sin and hell. One who leads me beside still waters and restores my soul. He is the Bread from heaven and the Living Water. The world is bursting with His loving presence just beneath the surface of things, it is slowly bursting through the cracks like beams of light.
Yes my divine mercy is going out into all the universe, it is there for all, lapping at the feet of every person ready for them to plunge into, but O the clever devices you design to insulate yourselves from my love. I Am here, but most will not invite me in to heal and restore their souls. It makes my heart sad, but they must come willingly, responding to the reality of my love. They must wake from their dreams of gaming and puzzle solving and reveling and storytelling and see what these all point to. They must willingly see the source, it is a delicate gift of interactive love I offer, who will tell them? Whom can I send?
Here am I Lord, send me. But grant that the fiery coal of Thine all-holy Body and precious Blood be for the sanctification, enlightenment and strengthening of my wretched soul and body, for the relief from the burden of my many transgressions, for my preservation against every demonic activity, for the trampling down and averting of my careless and evil habits, for the mortification of passions, for obedience to Thy commandments, for growth in Thy divine grace and for the inheritance of Thy kingdom.
I need cleansing, healing and strengthening continually..
Yes abide in me, we can do great things together if you abide in me.
Amen.
Thank you Lord.
