100:2.7 Jesus portrayed the profound surety of the God-knowing mortal when he said: “To a God-knowing kingdom believer, what does it matter if all things earthly crash?” Temporal securities are vulnerable, but spiritual sureties are impregnable. When the flood tides of human adversity, selfishness, cruelty, hate, malice, and jealousy beat about the mortal soul, you may rest in the assurance that there is one innerbastion, the citadel of the spirit, which is absolutely unassailable; at least this is true of every human being who has dedicated the keeping of his soul to the indwelling spirit of the eternal God.

Inner Shelter
I’m glad I’m inside where it’s warm.
Outside the winter is the norm.
We have learned to build our homes
So we stay warm when cold has grown.

We’re in the winter of our cycle
Designed, I’m sure, by Master Michael.
Designed with the whole world in mind.
A place for all by His design.

Places where it’s always warm
Though beset with many storms.
Likewise, places always cold.
Life there seems to be on hold.

But in the middle temperate places
Life evolves for many races.
Seasons change and alternate.
As time evolves, we see our fate.

Life exists, and we find ways
To lead productive lives today.
How we define the things we do
Defines our Spirit’s inner truth.

Attitude, what’s that about?
It directs – we choose our route.
Attitude can miss direct
Our choices from desired effects.

Thank You Father for all help.
I know, in fact, most are indwelt
With Your help, we will evolve.
And in the end all problems solved!

166:3.8 Even the apostles were unable fully to comprehend his teaching as to the necessity for using spiritual force for the purpose of breaking through all material resistance and for surmounting every earthly obstacle which might chance to stand in the way of grasping the all-important spiritual values of the new life in the spirit as the liberated sons of God.

“Breaking”
A cold and gloomy winter day.
The news is on. What do they say?
Who is competent, and who is not?
Do we believe what we’ve been taught?

With skeptic ears I listen to
The various pundits on the tube.
They’re vying for my ears attention.
They spread more fear than love’s affection.

I hope I know the current facts.
I know God’s love has all our backs!
Faith He knows what we all need
In the face of abject greed.

Who has got the favorite view
Of the lake and city, too?
A higher floor for your outlook,
Does this help with your input?

Your inner life can use your help!
Meditate within yourself.
Quiet beauty, undisturbed,
Promotes a peace within that works.

There’s an entity inside.
It wants to be your Holy Guide.
You know it every time you try.
It’s something that you can’t deny!

Thank You Father, it’s You there.
Somehow You’ve made me more aware.
Thank You for Your revelation!
It must be spread to all the nations!
