Be aware of the big difference between inspired action and activity.

Inspired action is allowing the law to work through you and to move you. Activity feels hard. Inspired action feels wonderful.
All angels bring revelations and tidings of their superiors.

'Every good endowment and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights' (Jms. 1:17). But there is something more.

It returns us back to the oneness and deifying simplicity of the Father who gathers us in. For, as the sacred Word says, 'from Him and to Him are all things' (Rom. 11:36).

Inspired by John Muir's A Thousand-Mile Walk to the Gulf, John Davis walks, bikes, and kayaks on a 'voyage of recovery' from the Florida Keys to southeastern Canada.
