Do you see the contrast?

God give them strength to go on and conquer! Do you see the contrast?

Be strong for others because if you are weak, then you are inflicting upon them the greatest injury that could be conceived. They, too, must pass over dry places―they too must find within themselves the will to go on, even though the consciousness of the Divine Presence may be absent. 

That is the greatest test of all—to feel that you have lost your Saviour.

The dry places suggest hope, not despair―their very dryness is a prophecy of the Living Water that is just in front―their barrenness, simply indicates that the flowers, which never fade, lie just beyond the border. 

Out of the wilderness, you step into the Land of Promise, into the fulfilment of that which you undertook away back in the dim and distant past when from God you set out to find God through experience to find that which was your own, to link up the Divine within with the All-Divine―to forever demonstrate your sonship and your daughtership with the Most High.

―Zodiac, the Christ Messenger
