The big, strong trunk of an oak has papery leaves that absorb energy from light. The feathery leaves build the mighty trunk.

Our soul, if we let it, will absorb energy from God. This special energy comes in at least two wavelengths, “truth”, and “love”. It is broadcast from what people in the Iron Age called the Holy Spirit. We in the age of computers may think of Him as The Holy Wireless Connector. He can send us gifts like wisdom, faith, and courage that may be on slightly different wavelengths.

To open ourselves to those wavelengths, we can take a first step to God simply by thinking about Him. It may help some to think about Him as able to program actual particles and put them in motion. It helps to think about living in a universe that He has programmed.

As we do that, we see how important He is. Then, we work toward making Him the center of our life. If we are grateful to God, we gain strength. As we do as He commands, like loving our neighbor, we gain more.

Each time we choose to obey a commandment, we open ourselves to more truth. Each time we disobey a commandment, we remove ourselves from God. Loneliness and depression are sure to follow.

The energy that comes directly from God can be overwhelming in its joy. Sometimes, we need energy that’s more focused on a specific need.

Saints and angels are there to broadcast on specific wavelengths. Kindly people are open to St. Francis. Intellectuals respond to St. Thomas Aquinas. Fathers relate to St. Joseph. All who want to be children of God revere Mary, whose child God was.

Catholic Fundamentalists learn to see all this as joyfully as little children who see their parents.
