Beyond the age, beyond the sense of value, the situation changes in various ways. Between the ages I lived and the present age, the various measures of civilization vary. And for the problems, various sophisticated problems arise one after another.
But when all the problems happen, what do we have to make the basis of our decisions regarding them? It is after all about what happiness is for the other in the true sense. Certainly there is a time when we have to bring tender words. Love is sometimes a matter of encouragement. And love sometimes involves expressing tenderness. Love is expressing the latitude.
But is it good enough always only to say a tender word?
Sometimes, there is a case when a parent scolds his or her children with the thought of beating them as severely as if scolding the other.
It is, in the true sense, what are the good words for others and what makes them truly alive? When you try hard from your heart, strengthen the will, and use the knowledge and wisdom, for the purpose, the essence of your knowledge and wisdom comes out. Then, express love and love others using the intellect and reason.
Wisdom should be used for love.
Love must not be discarded for wisdom.
And the person can become the messenger of love, only when one can learn and practice it in each one of these situations. It is what Immanuel wanted to say, and the accumulation of what we can do in the accumulation of a subtle act to our neighbors who are the little children of God will become the power of the person.
Otherwise, if only one person is the child of God, if only Immanuel Jesus Christ is the child of God, and the others are not the children of God, only
Immanuel knows the wisdom of God.
But that is not correct. When Immanuel Jesus Christ talked, those who were there did not have education, learning, food, and anything. But they were following him. Even though, they were all the children of God.
If it is so, since the thought of love in their heart recognized the word spoken by Immanuel as the message expressing the love of God, the crow followed Immanuel Jesus Christ. Otherwise, even if a thin man without anything had spoken, would they have ever followed him forgetting their work, forgetting their home, going barefoot and without food?
Those who had no learning were able to feel by their hearts that the word of love of Immanuel Jesus Christ as the children of God was real.
The truth is that which is so. The ethics of love is that which is so. You might have wished too much for the know-how or manual.
You might have thought too much about how it is for the one of love. But, when people see through whether you are a person of truth or a person of love, they judge your entire existence, your entire behavior, all of your words, and all of your acts, totally touching the spirit of the person as a whole.
Therefore, open your whole existence towards God. Opening it towards God means opening it towards love.
When you open it towards love that means that since it has been disclosed as a truth that all of you are the children of God, it means you open the love as the children of God fully and live exposing yourselves to the people.
Then a rushing stream of the splendid light of love given by God would spring out as if it had exploded.
By it you are going to change the people around you. If you think you can impress many people and change them by cheeky knowledge and words, it would be conceited. What is the person who is near God? Only when he is coming along, people come to feel awe and kneel in the face of his dignity.
Though it might be difficult because we have physical bodies, when we speak a little, even people in present times could know what kind of background he has.
Make each one of you into a messenger of God, not only into somebody great, but each one of you should strive to open fully to the divinity embedded as the children of God in your self as a messenger of God, as a messenger given from God, and live being the light of the world. I hope so.
It is the only way to rescue this ground.
