For the New Year

From my heart to yours, a prayer for the new year.

'On this first day of 2017 I share my prayer and blessing for us, the beloved of the Father. May the Spirit open the inner eyes of our heart's imagination to see as He sees us; that we may once and for all fling off the grave cloths of academic head knowing, knowing by hearsay and enter into the resurrection empowered knowing by personal seeing and experienced relationship the love of the Father that cascades into our lives through the Spirit.

May we know our identity as Christ persons that He is in us and we are in Him--complete union that we may love one another with the same love that He pours into our hearts and so be in reality the light of the world.'
