A Passion For Him.

Here, in a solitary isolation he contemplates that which lies ahead. What is wise? Should he follow blindly that which he has never seen? It seems absurd. To trust "God" whole-heartedly, when He has never shown Himself (to this generation) in a physical form. Who would place trust so blindly? The world replies, "a fool". What substance of truth is there to such a story? Is there not anything that declares who He is?

Ah, open your eyes and behold His splendor! See how all creation reflects a glimpse of His absolute and true perfection. With its every living breath it proclaims His majesty. Learn to listen. It's cannot be foolish to place trust in the Father of truth. As was told me, blessed are you excelsior Christian! Continue to develop in your faith and believe without having seen; for greater will be your reward in Heaven!

Seek God with all your heart and devote your life to Him. I pray that God will continually increase our passion to fill even the minute capacity that we have for knowledge of Him and that He would increase our capacity for it. Seek after his divine goodness, truth, and beauty.

God, guide us in our seeking of Him and give us your strength and wisdom. Enable our logic and reason to rule our desires and passions through the heart that we have submitted to You.

Eternally subsist in humble adoration of His divine, unquestionable, and righteous perfection!

-Brian
