Thy
will be done on earth as it
is in Heaven.
Matthew
6:10
Many misunderstand the
meaning and significance
of this concept in time
and space and in eternity:
it is in all these areas
of life and activity.
Heaven is the presence
of the Heavenly Father,
of Our Holy Spirit, and
of My loving essence and
being. So Heaven is everywhere
that sin and evil are not.
But it is a matter of degree
regarding its fullness,
just as the degree of goodness
and virtue varies according
to the orientation and commitment
of the individual and group
and so of Our indwelling
and purposeful activity
therein.
Heaven is neither place
nor present nor past nor
future in entirety, but
something of each and all
in part. Yet it has something
of suffering, for growth
and parting must be involved,
and joy of all kinds and
natures. Above all there
is purposeful progression
into wholeness both of the
one and of the many. There
is no progress of one without
the other, or the individual
without the group or the
whole without the part.
Consider these things and
share such thought as arises
from them. But above all
live in the light of joyful
and purposeful activity,
progressing towards Heaven.
