Art that leads down a stairway, as it were, becomes as idols, images bereft of power. This leads us into the dead end of possessions. If, on the other hand, we greedily possess them physically, then we have graven images. What thou seest in heaven above or in the earth below or in the water under the earth, let each vision and its expression through the work of thy hands and heart inspire thee toward me. If thou turnest thy love away from me unto the things of earth thou turnest away from the thousandfold benefits of my love.
Barnacles are hard to remove.
We will indeed be rich if we have the love of God in our hearts, and not the love of things. Rosicrucian Fellowship Study Courses information Click here for printed books ordering information. Click here to return to The Rosicrucian Fellowship Home Page.
