That same evening Jesus made the long-to-be-remembered address to the apostles regarding the relative value of status with God and progress in the eternal ascent to Paradise. Said Jesus: “My children, if there exists a true and living connection between the child and the Father, the child is certain to progress continuously toward the Father’s ideals. True, the child may at first make slow progress, but the progress is none the less sure. The important thing is not the rapidity of your progress but rather its certainty. Your actual achievement is not so important as the fact that the direction of your progress is Godward. What you are becoming day by day is of infinitely more importance than what you are today.

Sunny Days

Sunny all day long today.

Nice now for a stretch of days.

Cooler yes, it is still Spring.

But beauty is what nature brings.

Get some things done, now’s the time.

No rain today by God’s design.

To be outside alive’s a privilege.

Not reserved for just those privileged.

The sun is out for everyone.

But prison bars may block the sun.

But only those whom we have deemed

Guilty, and to them, we’re mean.

So what we choose to do, will be.

And if the Will of God, we see,

Then our choice must be the best

For all concerned, we need invest.

I place my Trust and Faith in God.

His plan for us, He will evolve.

We must follow, Faith’s the key.

Faith unlocks our destiny.

We become in this first life.

Evolving through all types of strife.

We become what can be known.

Enhanced by seeds of Love we’ve sown.

Thank You, Father, this day goes by.

There’s time for things, no need to fly.

But doing things that need to be done

I do them first, then I have fun.
