Divine life - is living in truth

03/12/2005

Life is everywhere. All nature is alive, all creatures are alive, yet how few men and women know what life is! When they find themselves in difficulty, they exclaim: ‘What can you expect? That’s life!’ They understand life to be something external to themselves, which they must endure. The failures, the accidents, the illness and the suffering, ‘that’s life!’ They loved, they married, and now they are divorcing; once again ‘that’s life!’ No, this is not life. They call ‘life’ a string of mistakes, weaknesses and failures, without realizing that they themselves have created this deplorable existence. The Lord, their heavenly Father, has foreseen that one day they will be capable of living his life, the divine life, which is the true life.
