Weekly Bible Quote 78 with commentary by the School of Truth

Serve the Lord with gladness! Come into His presence with singing! - (Ps 100:2)
Joy opens the whole world to me


Joy, in All its degrees, is the great quest of humanity. Unlike mere pleasure, it is the water that quenches our thirst, the spice that fulfils our lives. It is proof positive of God in us.

We make a mistake in seeing joy as the fruit of success. It guarantees success, for it confirms the presence of God in our endeavours. So feel joy in All you do, especially when the going gets tough - not only are you embracing God, you are radiating encouragement to your fellows, extending the bounds of possibility, introducing magic to what may seem predictable.

Do not let others get you down, drag you into their hole. Remain quietly content, truly self-radiant, confident. This consciousness makes you one with your Father - you walk with His legs, understand with His mind, feel with His soul. The whole world is open and hospitable to you. His song resonates through your very being.
