Jesus said."
This is the Father's will, that all
of which He hath given me I should
lose nothing but should raise it up
again at the last day. And this is
the will of Him that sent me, that
everyone who seeth the Son and believeth
on Him may have everlasting life,
and I will raise him up on the last
day".
John
11:39-40
So the light and life and joy of
the Father's eternal Kingdom becomes
the living experience of those who
are true of heart. Each act of goodness,
love and faithfulness brings that
child of the Father into the way
of the Kingdom, and it is a response
to My loving initiative in the light
of Our Holy Spirit. Nothing is lost
which is prompted by love and self-giving.
All that is responded to in and
through this loving response becomes
a part of the very fabric of the
Kingdom. Of Heaven. Regarding those
of the Father's children who choose
to disregard the call of Our loving
Holy Spirit : they can be and ceaselessly
are loved into the reality of the
Father's Kingdom through the deep
caring and prayerful loving of Our
committed, faithful ones.
The way is sure and fulfilling
in every aspect of life and living
to all who are true of heart , and
growth and maturity greatly comes
from listening and reacting to Our
inner prompting . But it is never
easy , nor could it ever be for
those who follow in the steps of
the Son of Man, identifying - as
they are shown - with His saving
work. I am come that they may have
life and that they may have it more
abundantly. And I, if I be lifted
up will draw all men unto me.
