Harmony
Creating harmony out of chaos
The inevitability of death is particularly difficult
to face for most Americans, as we've become a people that eschew traditional
funerals, preferring to "celebrate the life of our loved one, while
disposing of the body, and banning any sign of death from the memorial service
should we even decide to have a service. Yet the awareness of our own eventual
death is the very thing we should be thinking about, if we want to be prepared
for Eternity.
When we live our life focused on enjoyment, pleasure,
and the acquisition of material goods, we enslave ourselves, and can only find
freedom in God's love. This love creates perfection and faultlessness, and when
we think on your own death, we become free to perform every task for God.
Our fallen and imprisoned heart is liberated, and
becomes inflamed with the love of Christ when we enter into a relationship with
Him. This love of Christ engenders a love that permeates our very essence,
allowing us to love every person and every creature. Our heart burns with love.
This love turns chaos into harmony and it is Divine energy and Divine strength
that transforms us into the being God intended us to be. We are His child,
deified and made whole, and the chaos of our lives is turned into harmony.
With love in Christ,
Abbot Tryphon
