Ascension 2010, Impregnating Power

Ascension, Laura Summer
Ascension
John 16: 24-33

Hitherto you have asked nothing in my name. Pray from the heart, and it will be given to your heart, that your joy may be fulfilled.

All this I have given to your souls in imagery. But the hour is coming when I will no longer speak to you in pictures, but will tell you openly and unveiled about my Father, so that you can grasp it in full, knowing consciousness. Thus will I proclaim to you the being of the Father. On that day you will ask out of my power and in my name. And no longer will I ask the Father on your behalf. For the Father himself will love you because you have loved me, and have known in your hearts that I have come forth from the Father. I have come forth from the Father and I have come into this world.

I leave the sense world again and return to the world of the Father, of which you say that it is the world of death.”

Then Jesus’ disciples said, “Now you are speaking in clear thought and without imagery. Now we know that all things are revealed to you and that you do not even need to have anyone ask you questions. This makes us believe that you came from God.”

Jesus answered, “Do you now feel my power in your heart? Behold, the time is coming, and has already come, when you will be scattered, each to his own loneliness. You will then also leave me alone. But I am not alone, for the Father is eternally united with me.

All this I have spoken to you so that in me you may find peace. In this world you will have great fear and hardship. But take courage. I have overcome the world.”

John 16: 24-33


The blossom opens itself to the sunlit air. Doing so, its beauty and fragrance expand outward. It sends out its pollen and receives in turn the warm impregnating power from without. It becomes fruitful. At its deepest core, seeds of new life begin to form.

The deepest core of our humanity lies in our heart. As we open our heart, we stream forth the fragrant beauty of our gratitude for all that we have received. Through opening in gratitude, we continue to receive what we need for our future existence. We receive from the future the force that engenders new life, a force that settles into our core.

Christ’s love is that impregnating power for new life that we receive into our open, thankful hearts. His is the gentle fire of love, creative of being. His is the power that gives us new, future life. His love in our hearts is the seed-force of a new earth.
