Hello everyone, welcome to Reverend Patty's Inspiration Station Podcast, where one can awaken to the inner ticker of life, live in truth and let your spirit soar, and travel with me beyond the pulpit and into the gardens. Hello kindreds, this week our topic is Microscope of Love, an Easter message. Let's get to it. There is always a reason the Lord directs me to a scripture passage or another text. What is the Microscope of Love? This definition is taken from my book, Awakening the Inner Ticker of Life.
The Microscope of Love is a wonderful spiritual tool that cannot be seen by the human eye. It allows everything to come into focus and be felt by the spirit by changing the direction of one's heart. Jesus had a powerful ministry that lasted three years. He healed all in need and never turned anyone away. While hanging on the cross, he told his father, forgive them for they know not what they do. It's all about forgiveness. I had a situation that caused me to stumble.
I had two individuals that crossed my path that created havoc in my life. Not everyone is spiritually healthy. Jesus said to me, if I can help you, don't you think I can help them? Reluctantly I replied, yes. He went on to explain, Patty, we place everyone under the microscope of love so you can see them in my light. How powerful is that? Who do you need to place under the microscope of love? As we close out this week's podcast, we will have a short meditation.
During this Holy Week, let us surround ourselves with the healing force of the risen Christ. Relax by breathing in the resurrecting healing power of Jesus. Enter the silence. Our hearts are open and willing and we are strong and secure. The power of the risen Christ restores and resurrects us and it's greater than any challenge we face. Let the resurrecting power of Christ fill your heart and soul with peace, illuminating your path and restoring you to wholeness.
As we close out our meditation, I'm going to recite to you a poem that I wrote called Who is it that you look for? Is it I, he? Who is it that you look for? Is it I, he? I trudge the road of destiny through every rock and toil. I felt my face perspire amidst the sandy soil. My journey was long and hard and yet through it all, I did it for humanity. I did it for you all.
You came upon my burial site, a place that was not my own. You did not believe in me when I traveled to your home. Who is it that you look for? Is it I, he? I felt alone and weary. My body ached and cried. I did not want to leave you. I did not want to die. In the midst of a darkened hole upon a stone slab bed, I was no longer alone without a place to lay my head.
My father, he was with me listening through it all. The ground and walls shook hard as I answered your call. The sun rose so high on that Sunday morn. My clothes were white and dazzling. Not a stitch was torn. In the sleep, I awoke to a brand new me. Who is it that you look for? Is it I, he? So take my hand in silence, in goodness and in faith. Never despair again about your long due wait.
I came to save your soul, so wait and wonder yet. I came to take your hand, though soldiers lost their bet. I stand upon the mountain of my father God so high. My tears are still falling in the midst of your cry. When you find yourself traveling down the long and winding road in despair and without hope, and when you say to yourself, I cannot cope, remember my journey and why I came to be, I did it for you all so you would believe.
