For those for whom even seeing is not enough to believe, hearing is not different. They hear the teachings of Jesus Christ and withdraw to the darkness, ashamed to be seen in the light of Truth. Unable to speak out against the Word, they remain hidden and silent.
We are no strangers to such people who resist stepping out of the darkness towards the light. We who have accepted Christ as our Savior and Teacher feel the warmth of the Light of Christ shining on our souls. It is this light that draws us back, time and time again the listen to the Word of God.
There will always be those who will turn away from this light for to listen and believe would require that they change their ways and love one another as Christ demanded in His teachings. He shared the Truth with us and called upon all of us the find the Truth in how we are living our lives. Pray for those who are living in darkness and living a lie.
J.Siler
Prayer:
Almighty God, by whose word all things work, by whose guidance all things go, so order our inward life, that we may be enabled to understand the things that we see; and by Thy guidance in the spiritual life and in charity, so order what there is disordered in our lives, so bring our minds to the truth, our consciences to the law, our eyes to the light, and our hearts to Thy true love, that, amidst the seeming discords of life, we may hear the music of the heavenly will, and catch ofttimes the charms of the heavenly order. So give us hope that we may pass on through time, into the higher and better education of the eternal life to come, and that at last we may know those things that are hidden, and which now we cannot know, and learn the glorious beauty and the glorious loving of the eternal years.
Amen.
