The Lord's question to us, and how He can reach us in times of need. Genesis 21: 8-21; Arcana Coelestia 2689 It is known that all anxiety and grief arise from being deprived of the things with which we are affected, or which we love. They who are affected only with corporeal and worldly things, or who love such things only, grieve when they are deprived of them; but they who are affected with spiritual goods and truths and love them, grieve when they are deprived of them. Everyone's life is nothing but affection or love. Hence it is evident what is the state of those who are desolated as to the goods and truths with which they are affected, or which they love, namely, that their state of grief is more severe, because more internal; and in the deprivation of good and truth they do not regard the death of the body, for which they do not care, but eternal death.

Mark 6:45-56 Before anyone has been regenerated he cannot possibly know, so as to be able to say that he knows, acknowledges, and believes, that no good or truth at all comes from self, but that everything good and true comes from the Lord; nor can he possibly know that he is unable by his own power to resist any evil or falsity. Indeed he does not know that evil spirits are activating and implanting the evils and falsities, still less that he is in communication with hell by means of evil spirits, and that hell presses on him like the sea against every part of a dike, which he can by no means resist by his own strength. Yet because he cannot do otherwise, until he has been regenerated, than imagine that he resists by his own strength, this too is permitted; and in this condition he is admitted into conflicts, or temptations. Subsequently however he becomes more and more enlightened. Arcana Coelestia 1661:3 | By Rev. Dr Andrew M. Dibb | Ivyland New Church, PAMay God Bless the Work of Your Hands

And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, and with a loud voice glorified God. Luke 17:11-19 There were three reasons why faith in the Lord healed these; first, because they acknowledged His Divine omnipotence, and that He was God; secondly, because faith is acknowledgment, and from acknowledgment intuition; and all intuition from acknowledgment makes another to be present; this is a common thing in the spiritual world. So now, when a New Church was to be established by the Lord, it was this intuition from an acknowledgment of the Lord's omnipotence from which they were first to look to the Lord; and from this it is clear what is here meant by faith. The third reason was, that all the diseases healed by the Lord represented and thus signified the spiritual diseases that correspond to these natural diseases; and spiritual diseases can be healed only by the Lord, and in fact by looking to His Divine omnipotence and by repentance of life.

Rev. Jeremy Simons also on the chancel. "I was hungry and you fed Me, thirsty and you gave Me drink, naked and you clothed Me, a stranger and you took Me in, sick and you visited Me, in prison and you came to Me." These words speak not only of our charitable obligations to others but also of our relationship to the Lord. Is the Lord ever hungry or thirsty, naked or homeless, sick or in prison? | By Rev. Dr Raymond J. Silverman | Bryn Athyn Cathedral
