The Book
Prelude--
Dear one:
If you read the Book,
then your intentions are of good.
Clear your mind of the cloudiness of
vain and deceitful thoughts.
Know this:
The law has always been the law;
irrevocable, reaching though the vicissitudes of infinity.
From which all intelligence is born and fulfills the reason of its creation.
By disobedience you lose the power to overcome all things.
You become prey to the enemy...the darkness within yourself.
That which corrupts all mankind.
Obey! That you may be softened by pain and want.
Love can be the path toward kindness and difference.
Enlighten the mind by understanding gained through small steps.
Great works come from a thirst to overcome. Feel your way through
when you no longer see the light and rise through courage, again,
to continue when fallen.
From the depths of despair, let compassion refresh you,
magnifying your soul so everything is possible.
So was the path to infinite goodness for God.
Even before he was, his law has always been the law:
Though the miracles of time and space, stars and heavens
may be altered tomorrow, His law is law.
And though God gave himself to make you clean; each act of love,
each difference, each loyalty add to your greatness.
Your works and your deeds in seeking the light may follow you into eternity.
But neither God nor the devil will help you into the light,
only your own decision.
If these things were not so
how would man fulfill his greatness?
Where would be the joy in your soul, on the day you face Him
and say as His child, that you have conquered all things.
Heaven has been opened for you.
You have come home.
