1Oh my children, my beloved, hear the admonitions of your father, for this is the will of the Lord.
2It was granted me to be with you to announce to you all that is and that was and all that is now and all that will be.
3I am he who saw the face of the Lord, and like iron in fire, it throws off sparks that burn.
4You look at my eyes now, but I saw the eyes of the Lord, shining like the rays of the sun.
