That Which Is Denied Cannot Be Healed.

The Fierce Words Of Jesus Addressed To The Pharisees Of His Day Stretch Across The Bands Of Time. Today They Are Directed Not Only To Fallen Televangelists But To Each Of Us. We Miss Jesus' Point Entirely When We Use His Words As Weapons Against Others. They Are To Be Taken Personally By Each Of Us. This Is The Form And Shape Of Christian Pharisaism In Our Time. Hypocrisy Is Not Hte Prerogative Of People In High Places. The Most Impoverished Among Us Is Capable Of It. Hypocrisy Is The Natural Expression Of What Is Meanest In Us All.

Anyone We Come In Contact With, We Either Offer Them Life, Or We Drain Them.

We Even Refuse To Be Our True Self With God- And Then Wonder Why We Lack Intimacy With Him.

The Men And Women Who Are Truly Filled With Light Are Those Who Have Gazed Deeply Into The Darkness Of Their Own Imperfect Existence.

Accepting The Reality Of Our Sinfulness Means Accepting Our Authentic Self. Judas Could Not Face His Shadow; Peter Could. The Latter Befriended The Impostor Within; The Former Raged Against Him.
