[ We have seen God’s mercy and wisdom: how shall we respond? ] With eyes wide open to the mercies of God, I beg you, my brothers, as an act of intelligent worship, to give him your bodies, as a living sacrifice, consecrated to him and acceptable by him. Don’t let the world around you squeeze you into its own mould, but let God re-mould your minds from within, so that you may prove in practice that the plan of God for you is good, meets all his demands and moves towards the goal of true maturity.
— Romans 12:2
J.B. Phillips New Testament
“Reaching For The Light”
Mind in
Transcendence … p 52
We well know the mind stirs the imagination, invoking images both real and fanciful. It is less well known, however, that within this phenomenon of the mind lies our most precious human resource; the ability through imagination to transform thoughts of the mind into the realm of the supernatural. Thus may we visualize ourself suffused in the Light of God’s presence, His Love a salve to our soul.
