Work of creation - we came to the earth to participate in it

06/04/2011

At night, as you go to sleep, deliver yourself into the Lord’s hands, and say, ‘My God, I want to do your will. Do with me as you wish.’ And the next day check your thoughts, feelings and actions to see whether what you are doing really is the will of God and not the will of your lower nature. For it is not enough to say verbally that you give everything to God in the evening and then to give in to all your whims the following day. We came to the earth to participate in the work of creation. Jesus said, ‘My Father is still working, and I also am working.’ This work with God, for God, is the final word of initiation. Everything we give to God we raise to the level where he himself is. Then God repeats our gesture; he reflects it like a mirror reflecting a ray of light: we have given him everything, and he gives us everything.
