Scripture Study: The Pillar of Light Verse 20 - 23

20. Fix then your will upon the Truth and your heart on the Spirit My Mother, for by your love shall the world be redeemed, even to the last blade of grass.  
21. In thy work praise Her and in thy resting, in thy speech and in thy silence. 22. For thou wert made one with Her, and this is thy true estate. It is good for a maid to till the soil, but it is better to live with her Lady. It is good to build and to weave, but it is better to live with her Lady. It is good to serve maids in every way, but it is better to live with her Lady. 

23. She that liveth wholly with her Lady is the servant of all the world; no labour is so great as this, nor so greatly to be honoured.
 The Gospel of Our Mother God, The Pillar of Light
The world tells us we are helpless and that there is nothing we can do in the face of destruction and evil in it. Our Lady teaches us in the scriptures that we are not beyond hope nor are we helpless.  If we fix our focus upon the Truth that Déa teaches us, we may reach beyond the limitations of this world and participate in Our Lady's work to save all from oblivion.

It is good that we focus upon our lives and the work that we engage in. We must remember that we are one with Déa and through this union our work is made holy. Praise and reverence for Déa need not come from formal prayer. It may flow from our love of Her and our devotion to do what is right. It is good that we work in this world to better it and care for each other. It is better that we do so in recognizing that we are caring for Déa in others. When the world seems full of despair and evil, let us not fall for the illusion it presents us.

All that we do is nothing lest we do it through Our Mother's kindness, love, and care. We are called by Déa to love each other. It is greatly important in the face of the cruelty and abuses happening in this world to be that force of love. Kindness and love may heal the wounds of our hearts and bridge the distance forced between us through the cruelty of they who are more distant from Déa and can not see Her in the light of others.
