"Each time we do good things, something living and beautiful is created - in us, for other's, and in the Lord's kingdom. We do the action, and the Lord brings life - a sense of connection with others, some kind of joy, a feeling of gratitude or love..."
Maybe I just chaff at putting the cart before the horse, but I feel strongly the importance of looking a these words from the point of view of our natural experiences before our spiritual.
It seems to me that the person taught from an early age to take wise actions, to learn as much as he or she can about areas of interest, and to be open to discussion, evaluation & revaluation will be inherently open both to fresh perception and mastery.
fresh perception and mastery. What wonderful skills to instill in a child, within both natural & spiritual worlds. That is the way that we bring forth new wonders into the world. Through new perceptions, which lead to mastery.
We do the action, and the world follows. If a child - or adult - is taught & experiences that from their earliest actions & interactions, the segue into applying it to the spiritual is a natural next step, to doing the next spiritual step, clearing the way for All That Is to make the actual changes.
Exciting stuff!
