Translations:Order of the Good Samaritan/9/en
I like the term missionary because it bespeaks one who senses that his life is a mission—every life as a mission, as has been said.[1] And thus to define that mission and to understand that there are basics, no matter what the area of concentration or expertise, is to love the LORD thy God with all thy soul and heart and mind and thy neighbor as thyself.[2] All other callings proceed from this. There is no mastery on any of the seven rays unless God be adored and glorified and understood to be fulfilled in the service of one another. Thus—as Above, so below—the call to love precedes all other elections.
