Jesus said, "Did you not know that I must be busy with My Father's affairs?"
But they did not understand what He meant.
Luke 3:49

Happy indeed are those of the Father's beloved children who see and understand from their youth that the purpose and path of their life is but to be found. So was I blessed. Through the training of My early years, through prayer and worship, study and meditation I came to know within My self My calling and identity, the loving purpose of My Father's will for Me and all mankind, gradually but certainly the understanding came and in obedience I responded to it.

So is it for all the Father's children. I am the Incarnate Word but humanly I lived and died on earth, encountering all the joys and pains and challenges of human life - and more. Each child of the loving Heavenly Father is loved by Him into existence: each has his place and purpose, each called in and through the power of Our saving, sanctifying love to take his place in the eternal kingdom of the Father's love. But each is free to choose, co-operate with Love's design, procrastinate or refuse Love's challenge and fulfilment.

Let this be seen and known and fully understood and let all who see react without delay.
