(02/08/20<strong>14</strong>)<br />
“As for my father, I never knew whether he believed God was a<br />
mathematician, and yet he certainly believed that God knew math. And he also<br />
believed that only by humbly listening for -- and then courageously harmonizing<br />
with -- God’s rhythms of LOVE & Peace were any of us able to experience any<br />
sense of real Power & Beauty.” ~ inspired by Norman MacClean<br />

"By this everyone will know that you are my disciples: when you show Love<br />

and that you are in me, and that I am in you ... For my Father is glorified by this,<br />
that you bear much fruit and [thereby] become my disciples. Just as the Father has<br />
loved me, I have loved you; so you should also embody this Love. And indeed, if you<br />
keep my commandments, you WILL embody this Love ...<br />
For this is my commandment: that you Love one<br />
another just as I have Loved you." ~ Jesus Christ (in<br />
