THE HUMAN MIND CAN MAKE NAUGHT HOLY

Fondly do we hope--fervently do we pray--that this mighty scourge of war may speedily pass away. Yet, if God wills that it continue until all the wealth piled by the bondsman's two hundred and fifty years of unrequited toil shall be sunk, and until every drop of blood drawn with the lash shall be paid by another drawn with the sword, as was said three thousand years ago, so still it must be said 'the judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether.' -- From Abraham Lincoln's Second Inaugural Address

To spiritual consciousness the mighty scourge of the American Civil War and the mighty scourge of our today's civil war are as one.

The human mind, from Abraham to Lincoln, could not on its own make holy our thoughts, our words or our deeds...so still it must be said 'the judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether.' Ergo, seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness...period.

It makes no never mind what will be added unto us if we're seeking first God because it can only be good...love and laughter, if we will but love and laugh. It is up to us.

According to me.

Thank you.
