5. Confidence
My beloved Father-Lord,I need ceaseless confidence
To claim You as my Eternity's own.
"My daughter,
Your life-river
Has already claimed Me
As its Eternity's own,
But you have to do something more:
You have to constantly feel
That My Vision-height
Loves you infinitely more
Than you love your earth-existence-life
And Heaven-transcendence-light."
Sri Chinmoy, My California Redwoods, Agni Press, 1974
