Day 1 Nourishment From God
Joe : Every person is a child of God no matter how
each comes to him for it is said that each shall
inherit the Kingdom of Heaven. Belief in an
omnipotent God is trusting in
something/someone who is greater than yourself
that can nourish you. Fear not how you
approach him for it is God’s nourishment, being
bathed in his light, that helps you through your
daily struggle.
Jesus* : When you walk through an orchard, you see an
apple tree, an orange tree, grape vines, blueberries,
raspberries, lime trees and lemon trees. Are any of them
the one true tree? No. Are any of them the one true fruit?
No. If you walk to one tree and you say, ‘Oh, this orange
is delicious. I’m just going to eat oranges for the rest of
my life,’ this is okay but does it mean that the one that’s
eating blueberries is wrong? No. It’s the nurturing. It’s
a nurture – fruit from God -- and nurturing from God is
like a nurturing fruit. Nurturing is from God. It is not the
fruit you eat in order to be nurtured. It is the compassion
and the love that you feel from God that is God. It is not
the Bible, nor the Cross, nor the Rosary, nor the prayer rug
or the yoga stances that people think they need in order to
connect with God. It is the nourishment, the light, that one
receives from “God” that is inside of them that is
important.
