Powerless

1 John 2:17

17 And the world is passing away with all its desires,

but the person who does the Will of God remains forever.

 

 

Powerless

 

The will is powerless to move itself ... it depends on activation.

What propels it do you think ... the mind moved through emotion?

So it turns by feeling ... but what if you have none

as we see daily in wars ... and the cruelty that’s done.

 

If emotions are quiet ... as is the voice of intuition

Both will activate the will through the mind’s cooperation.

“Peace be still”, says the Lord ... as we reason in meditation

And together we see the Light ... thus called God’s revelation.
