Please Speak For Thy Servants Are Listening

In a narrow hallway, you walk slowly forward. You know of only one way to go, so you press onward. You look always for signs of light or openings along the way. You know inside that there is no escape, only one way to go from here. You have tried all other means of escape, but none have proven feasible. So you go forth, often afraid of what lies ahead, but your soul leads you onward. You are ever diligent to get to your destination.

As you tire of trying to find relief from the darkness, you give up the fight and become resolute in your determination to arrive at your goal. Your goal is now close at hand. You begin to see glimpses of light ahead. You become hopeful and begin to feel the peace and joy for the end must surely be near. Your heart swells with joy for you at last know that you have walked this long corridor for the very reason of your hope. At last you have entered heaven’s gates. You hear the singing of angels and know that you are at last home with God. You realize instantly that your mission is complete. You have found the true object of your desire. You are home at last. You are filled with more love than you ever imagined.

You have finally seen the light, the light that is God and you are certain now that you have been rescued from the illusions that for so long held you captive. You are finally free from the restrictions of the world. You no longer are held within the grasp of carnality. You have seen the light and it is good. So good, in fact, that you are compelled to help others see it. This light is to be shared and enjoyed by all. It’s a secret you cannot keep. How selfish it would be to keep it to yourself, even though you find it quite blissful and totally comforting. But how can you fully enjoy the experience if your brothers are not able to enjoy it with you?

So you return to see how many you can bring back with you. This is a gift that must be given. You no longer are concerned with selfish things. You must help as many as possible to see the light just as you have. You run back to get as many as you can. You tell a great tale of what you’ve seen and urge others to follow you to the promised land. The joy that you exhibit surely entices those who are intrigued by your story. Some will make the effort to walk the path as you before them. You have demonstrated the worthiness of the effort. Your light does shine with the Glory of the Lord. Over and over do you urge others to seek what you have found. This is your mission. Leading others as you have been led. You are ordained a teacher of many unto the light of God. Go boldly into the light!
