Meditations with Christ
Emmanuel—God with Us
Jesus knew a rapture in communion with God which proved that He had surmounted all the barriers of mind wandering, intellectual abstractions, and faulty attunements that are the blights of silences.
Flower A. Newhouse, The Christward Way
In meditation, when your eyes are closed upon the outer world and opened upon the world of Spirit, how do you approach the realization of God?
In the beginning of Christ's relationship with the Infinite Spirit as Jesus, He must have taken time to listen to the sounds of Life around Him. The Divine Life was reflecting Itself in the gladness of the bird songs, in the movements of the frolicsome wind and in the activities of unfolding humanity. The undulations of His thoughts would gradually swell until they finally beat upon the shores of another world. Here the Presence shining throughout every dimension was accorded the adoration which was Its due. Other beings, creations, rhythms and tones were like minor notes which were in contrast to the rising exultant crescendo of the over-mastering Presence.
This great Influence which penetrates kingdoms, lives, and powers was not awesome to the worshipping Jesus. He knew that behind the grandeur of Its Omnipotence resided a Spirit of Infinite mercy, of enthralling love, and of tender kindness.Flower A. Newhouse, The Christward Way
