Thought for the Day

When Jesus was born in a manger, three kings were led by a star to Jesus' birthplace. One of them, seeing infant Jesus observed: "This child will love God." The second one said: "No, God will love Him." The third one said: "Verily He is God Himself." The true significance of these three statements is - "To love God is to be His Messenger. To be loved by God is to be God’s child. The final state is to be one with God.” And Jesus said, "I and my Father are One." These three statements are applicable to all of you. Understand that you are also a messenger of God. When can you afford to call yourself ‘God’s child’? God does only pure actions, selflessly for the sake of all without any trace of self-interest in Him. To become God’s messenger and God’s child, and attain oneness with Him, manifest the qualities of the Father and divinise yourself.
