"I CALL UPON GOD'S NAME AND ON MY OWN."

God's name is holy, but no holier than ours.  To call upon His Name is to call upon our own.  A father gives his son his name, thus identifying the son with him.  His brothers share his name, united in a bond to which they turn for their identity.  God's Name can not be heard without response, nor said without an echo in the mind that calls us to remember.  Say His Name, and we invite the angels to surround the ground on which we stand.  The world responds by laying down illusions.

The sick arise, healed of their sickly thoughts.  The blind can see; the deaf can hear.  The tears and pain are dried as happy laughter comes to bless the world.  They become anonymous and valueless to us.  Repeat the Name of God, and call upon  our selves.  Whose name is His. 

Repeat God's Name slowly again and still again.  Become oblivious to every name but His.  Hear nothing else.  Let all our thoughts become anchored on This.  We give an invitation which can never be refused.  God will come and answer it Himself.  Sit silently, and let His Name become the all encompassing idea that holds our minds completely.  Let all thoughts be still except this one. 

We will experience the gift of grace.  Turn to the Name of God for our release, and it will be given to us.  No prayer except this is necessary,  for it holds them all within it.  The universe consists of nothing but the Son of God, who calls upon his Father.  In this eternal, still relationship in which communication far transcends all words.  Peace is eternal.  In our Father's Name, we  would experience this peace today.  In His Name, it shall be given us.  www.jean-lucdabreau.com
