Then all the priests arose and said to Old Father Zakhria,in reproach: "Be at rest and keep thy seat, Old Father, and let the calm of the Good rest upon thee. Old Father, if there were no dreams in Judea then would that Misha has siad, be lying Rather shall thy word and our word be made good, and the dreams we have seen. Yohana will receive Jordon and be called prophet in Jerusalem. (Book of the Gnostic John the Baptizer, Chapter 18)
When frustrated (or worse) with prayers unanswered, hopes dashed, and potential lost may we each be at rest and keep our seat.
May we continue to dream and day-dream and wonder and explore and experiment and reflect and discuss with others and learn from others and listen for the whisper of God. And may we have faith in what we hear and go forth in love, humility and courage to undertake what we are told.
In all things and at all times may the calm of the Good rest upon thee and me.
