When you have every reason to submit to life's timult and live in despair....
but don't.....
you wouldn't let go of your joy.
That my friends, is the presence of Christ in your heart.
When assailed by enemies,
you may not trust, but yet you will not hate, you forsake killing.....
God is in your soul, Christ is in your heart.
Such as Psalms 1 and 2, when the wicked are portrayed as destroying themselves, what's really happening is that the redeeming spirit of Christ and the Holy Spirit, the paraclete, the helper, "Cletus", has no purchase in their souls, and they wither in hatred and self-destruction.
Think of how the indolent unconscious tree grows, the instinct driven yard dog, even the yard dog can show familiarity and love, the tree can flourish even in inconvenient spots, for they know not wickedness, only a hard natural arc.
"how much more then" if God clothes the grass of the field, "how much more then" will God care and provide for his own children?
