Ezekiel 12:1-12. Matthew 18:21-19:1

The secret of successful living is obedience to the Father's will and loving purpose. So lived my prophets and My saints in ages past, and many in the world today are so committed. But this involves a patient waiting on the Father's word in prayer and meditation and in the joy and discipline of daily worship and thanksgiving.

And the Father calls His beloved sons and daughters to corporate sharing in His love. The faithful in His love rejoice together and unite in intercession for the one and many in His suffering world. So do they grow into a caring and compassionate fellowship, giving and forgiving as Our loving Holy Spirit leads and guides.
