Walking in the Light of God’s Truth and Love: Embrace the Harmony of His Purpose as He works All Things Together for Good. Part 2

There are some books that are so full of love and treasure in my heart, here some excerpts all from Phil Bosmans book “God, is incredible!”

Message of Love, just love from Father Almighty

Whoever has found God
Has one more antenna
To receive my deepest messages. 

Whoever has found God
Has one more support in life,
Has one more layer of ground
Beneath their feet.

Whoever has found God
Has finally found themselves,
In a different dimension,
Far above
Their own horizon,
In a new dimension: the religious one.

Whoever has found God
Must keep searching
In order to keep finding Him always.

God is so exciting…
It is not good to stop searching,
Even when one believes
That they have found something.

Entering the Mystery

Faith
Is not the same thing
As religious wisdom,
Nor the same as accepting
Certain truths
And certain dogmas.

Faith
Begins
When one enters
The great mystery
Blindly and searching,
Questioning and asking for a little light,
Until one day
God draws near to you
And makes you feel His presence
In all the things of everyday life.

Faith
Is looking beyond
Through the midst of things
And seeing the One who is behind them.

Faith
Is abandoning one’s own
Earthly security
And beginning to walk upon the waters;
It is trusting in a Being
Whom you know
Is truly present
And continues drawing you onward.

Faith
Is allowing yourself to be welcomed
Into a new dimension,
A deeper one,
Into a place
Where all borders
Have disappeared.

Faith
Is confidently taking a leap
Into the darkness,
A vigorous way of feeling love.

Faith is a grace.

Generally it is given
Very slowly.
To many it is given
From early childhood.
To nonbelievers it sometimes comes suddenly,
When they possess such a pure spirit
And such an open heart,
And are so devoted to others,
That, without knowing it,
Perhaps for years
They have been living within the magnetic field
Of the incredible God.

There are people—writers and artists, journalists and television personalities, politicians and professors—who dismiss God and religion, saying shamelessly, doing terrible, provocative and offensive things. What they do usually reveals much more about themselves than about God or religion.

It is a solemn foolishness
To consider nonbelievers
As lesser people,
Or to believe
That believers are always fools.

Believers,
Those who hold other beliefs,
And nonbelievers
Are all human beings,
And together they form a kind of mosaic.
Each piece and every tiny piece
Is different from the others.
They should not cover one another
Nor push one another aside.
They should try
To reflect the beauty of God
And radiate something
Of God’s goodness and love.

“Whoever is in Jesus
Is a new Creation.” — Saint Paul

The Gospel

In that book we find described the Humanism of God. It is a message that brings incredible joy. The most human and the most divine message, confronting all existing ideologies.

The most human message,
Because it forces no one to remain on the margins.
No one is rejected or expelled.
There is such understanding, goodness, and sympathy toward the weak and sinners, toward people who cannot manage to get ahead, that anyone can feel at home.

The most divine message,

Because no one can measure its dimensions—its breadth, height, and depth. Whoever has once entered into it with faith finds so much light, so much joy, so much life, that they feel it with every fiber of their being—even if it is impossible to explain with words.

This is the message
That can save the world.
If the Gospel did not exist,
We would have to invent it,
If such a thing were possible,
In order to make people happy,
Not “someday,”
But today, here and now,
In this village called Earth.

That Gospel contains neither doctrines, nor dogmas, nor philosophies. It is “life.” What one finds here is not a thing, a memory, a heavy image, or a fantasy; what one finds is a person, someone truly alive, whose presence can be felt by those who love Him.

From the outside, no one can make an appropriate judgment. What matters is experience. It must be lived with body and soul; otherwise it remains nothing more than a cold, foreign object, and we cannot understand anything. For someone to whom God is only an illusion and human beings are merely a structure of atoms and molecules, the Gospel will contain at most a handful of beautiful ideas, but its authentic message will remain inaccessible.

To the person who has faith, the Gospel gives a difficult but clear answer to the question of the deepest meaning
Of life
And of what it means
“To be a person” and “to live with others.”

A clear answer to the question:
How can so many people live together?
How can wars, hostilities, and violence come to an end?

The Gospel of love remains the Gospel of absurdity, because its argument is a love
That is not light or superficial,
But marked by the sign
Of the Cross.

Whoever chooses that love
Renounces their own power
And places themselves in the last place,
In service to everyone else.

It Is Incredible

It is curious.
You can spend years reading
The Gospel
Frequently, year after year,
Without it reaching
The deepest part of you,
Until one day what you have read
Hundreds of times
Suddenly touches you so deeply,
Overflowing your heart in such a way,
That you become exultant with joy.

And you begin to leap
And give thanks
Because God has spoken to you.

It is incredible,
Everything found in the Gospel.
But when you are able to believe it,
Life acquires for you
A profound meaning.

The ancient message of the Gospel
Is not something
Only particularly gifted people,
The initiated, or the chosen
Can understand.

The Gospel is not a secret code
To be deciphered
By clairvoyant minds
With the help
Of refined procedures.

The Gospel is understood
By those who maintain
A living relationship with it:
The poor and the children.

Neither the rich, nor the powerful,
Nor the mighty
Can understand anything.
That is why it is so hard for them
To enter into the joy of the Gospel.

The poor and the children—
They hold the key
To that inner language.
They hear how God speaks.

For them, the Gospel is not a moral code,
But good news,
A message filled with joy.

Whoever does not become like a child
Will understand nothing.

“That is why it becomes an uphill battle to penetrate the joy of Gospel .”and Ephesians 3:13-19 mdg “11-13 All this is proceeding along lines planned all along by God and then executed in Christ Jesus. When we trust in him, we’re free to say whatever needs to be said, bold to go wherever we need to go. So don’t let my present trouble on your behalf get you down. Be proud!

* * *

14-19 My response is to get down on my knees before the Father, this magnificent Father who parcels out all heaven and earth. I ask him to strengthen you by his Spirit—not a brute strength but a glorious inner strength—that Christ will live in you as you open the door and invite him in. And I ask him that with both feet planted firmly on love, you’ll be able to take in with all followers of Jesus the extravagant dimensions of Christ’s love. Reach out and experience the breadth! Test its length! Plumb the depths! Rise to the heights! Live full lives, full in the fullness of God.”

“The things of Jesus
And the message He brought
Can be read
In the newest thing written for these times:
The ancient book of the Gospels.

Those Gospels
Are the inexhaustible,
Unmistakable, and open manifesto
Of a great love.”

Jesus as the New Moses

The Ultimate Deliverer: Just as Moses delivered Israel from physical slavery in Egypt, Jesus delivers all humanity from the slavery of sin and death.

The Mount of Transfiguration: This biblical event, recorded in Gospel of Matthew, shows Jesus speaking with Moses (who represents the Law) and Elijah (who represents the Prophets), revealing that Jesus is the fulfillment and completion of both.

Spiritual Reflection:
Just as Moses guided the people toward the Promised Land, Jesus leads us into eternal life.
Moses parted the sea to set Israel free; Jesus opened the way to the Father through His cross.
Moses received the law written on stone; Jesus writes His law upon our hearts through His Spirit.

As Scripture says:
“For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ”
(Gospel of John). By Facebook excerpt from Corazón de Paúl
