The Prophet Isaiah also calls this Child “Counselor.” A counselor is one who gives guidance. If you are worried because you do not know whether to take some important step, to accept a business offer, to sign an important document, to enter upon a partnership, to resign your position, to trust someone, to say something, the Child will be your Counselor.
In the third place the prophet reveals to us who the Child really is. It is no less than God Himself, “The Mighty God.” And truly the mystic Power that transforms, and transmutes, and transfigures, is God Himself, always present with you, and always available.
…the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works (John 14:10).
Read John 14:10-17.
There is a voice within each of us that guides our thoughts and informs our behavior. It is the counselor sent by God to help us do that which we know is right and to help us when we are not sure what is right. We can chose to listen to that voice and heed its counsel, or we can chose to ignore it. When we ignore it, we will increase our difficulties and multiply our mistakes. When we hear and follow this voice, our lives become easier and we avoid mistakes. Heeding this voice opens the door to God’s power and to the Eden he created for us. It is our choice whether we heed or ignore this counselor.
Hearing and heeding,
