    To  be holy is to be involved in the works of love  in
the   presence  of the Holy Spirit:     growth,   renewal,
redemption,     reconciliation,    conflict    resolution,
forgiveness,   and intimate relationships in truly  secure
contexts---because  gifts of true security are offered and
accepted.

    Perfection  is  not the essence of  being  holy,   for
perfection  is  static,  not in process---unless  you  are
thinking of a perfect process of growth and change.

    The Holy Spirit works to renew, change, redeem; not to
prevent change in that which is perfect.

    That which is un-holy is not worthy of rejection  just
because  it  is  un-holy.   That which is un-holy  is  not
thereby to be regarded as evil, and as an adversary.

    That which is un-holy is just not respectfully present
in  the presence of the Holy Spirit doing the work of  the
Holy Spirit.   That which is un-holy may  become holy   by
returning  to  the  presence  of  the  Holy   Sprite   and
becoming renewed, changed, redeemed---by becoming involved
in the work of the Holy Spirit.

    That which is holy may become un-holy by moving out of
the  presence of the Holy Spirit and leaving the  work  of
the  Holy  Spirit.    Holiness is not a  status  which  is
achieved,  earned, or bought---to last forever.   Holiness
is a state of being, a way of being; being present to each
other in the presence of the Holy Spirit.

    Holy  moments are  eternally sacred---not in  extended
time;  but rater in the eternal now  of each moment of  I-
Thou  relationships which are free  of  fears,  anxieties,
threats,     and    expectations    of    rejection    and
excommunication.

    We  do not achieve the status of being holy or sacred.
We may accept the presence of the Holy Spirit---and in its
presence be present to each other in ways which involve us
in  the  work of love in the presence of the Holy  Spirit:
growth,   renewal,  redemption, reconciliation,   conflict
resolution, forgiveness, and intimate relationships within
truly secure contexts---because gifts of true security are
freely offered and accepted.
