Matthew 11:25 … Revealed to Infants (02/05/17)
“I thank you, Father, Lord of Heaven and Earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and the intelligent, and have revealed them instead to infants” ~ Jesus (Matthew 11:25)
First of all, note that “the Father” mentioned here (for Jesus at least) is the internal Divine Essence of all things living – an Essence that is especially vibrant in all beings sentient – an Essence that is composed of a frequency that harmonizes with the base-vibration emitted by all manifestations of perfect Love. And as such it is an Essence that continually “hums” that same frequency, and thereby that in effect “summons” us to harmonize our own lives with it via acts of selfless Caring. This frequency never shifts in its tone – only in its volume – and thus it is indeed true that it is ever in effect the “Lord of Heaven” …
That having been said, this frequency is ever the (admittedly more subtle) “Lord of the Earth” as well, for wherever there is conflict, its call comes the loudest to lead all sentient beings nearby to ameliorate the same – and whenever there is an actualized encounter between the forces of discord and those of harmony; between the forces of self-interest and those of communal betterment; between the forces of greed and those of giving – the latters always ultimately come forth to neutralize those former.
And this is why Jesus is more Right than most realize in uttering this statement, for “the Lord of Heaven” is literally hidden within every sentient conscience – waiting patiently & calmly at the center of ever sentient Soul — and “the Lord of Earth” is hidden by its rarity; hidden by the fact that very few seek it — and thus very few find it — and thus very few actualize it.
Infants know nothing of the fears and worries and regrets and greeds and preconceptions that keep adolescents and elderlies from making this latter “Lord” a real player in their lives, which is why Jesus tells us quite correctly to not merely “become again as a child” (as it is written in Matthew 18:3-4 in most Bibles), but rather to “become again as an infant” (or toddler — the Greek word “paidion;” see Strong’s #3813).
Amen … Let it be so.
