\"OLYMPUS<\/p>\n

The Acceptable Gift<\/span><\/h3>\n

Rest in My Love.\u00a0 Abide in Me.<\/p>\n

Leave\u00a0all to follow\u00a0Me \u2014 your pride, your self-sufficiency, your fears of what others may think \u2014 All.<\/p>\n

Have no fear.\u00a0 Go forth into the unknown with Me, fearful of nothing with so sure a convoy.<\/p>\n

Just as a flower, given as an offering to a loved one, so\u00a0is your tribute of love to Me.<\/p>\n

As Mary gave her Love-offering, spikenard very precious, so give to Me your love and understanding.<\/p>\n
