Chapter 196:

Except Ye Become as Children

<< Previous | Home | Next >>

1. OFT HAVE I told you that ye cannot enter the kingdom of heaven except ye have it in your hearts to do good.

2. If ye become as a child, ye do see as a child, ye do love as a child, ye do hope as a child, ye do believe as a child.

3. Entering the Kingdom, ye do all of these, beloved, for verily is light given unto those who see as children, not weakly, not foolishly, but not burdened by worldly concept, which is ever false concept, having knowledge of manners which is crassness of intellect.

4. I say unto you, except ye become as children ye cannot see light, for is it not known to you that age dimmeth the eyesight?

5. The eyesight of children is sharper than that of adults, the hearts of children are softer than those of adults, the percepts of children are keener than those of adults;

6. All these have a bearing on your missions, beloved; I teach you as one who is given authority.

7. Take my peace among you and go forth unto vision, unto tenderness, unto clearness of perception, unto the glory of that Host that watcheth your welfare, that doth you good and bringeth you to mastery.

8. For it behooveth the righteous man to know that his longings find him out, that his heart hath its pulse, that what he hath envisioned hath its parentage in radiance.

9. Behold ye do gain upon an evil wind and its blowings tear your garments; the fell storm pursueth you; it giveth you a torment; ye do say in your hearts, The world hath a plague for us, it mocketh us with wrackings.

10. How is it, beloved, that the wind doth subside and the sun shineth brightly? Do ye recall in that hour the plague of the gale or the howlings of the darkness? Do ye cry unto the Father, The goodly times are on us, the blessings that were promised now sit upon our firesides?

11. Yet the child crieth brightly, The east hath its rainbow! the gift that was promised hath come into my hands!

12. The child thinketh only of gifts and of rainbows, but he who is old giveth thought to the mischief.
