St. Teresa of Avila
Jesus said, "I am the True Vine and My Father is the vinedresser……..It is the glory of the Father that you should bear much fruit and then you will be My disciples"
John 15:1-2

The Father draws His world into the orbit of His presence through My redeeming love in all who walk in truth and faithfulness. The life enlivening the Father's world, pulsating through the whole creation is one and undivided. And the whole is in the hollow of the Father's hand.

The natural world obeys the natural laws the Father has ordained, and praises Him through the nature of its being. Mankind the Father has designed to share with Him and with the Heavenly company the glory of eternal life and to learn the meaning and the power of Eternal Love.

I came on earth to be the Means and the Fulfilment of the Father's love in time and through eternity. And all who are in Me and I in them I bring to their perfection and enable that fulfilment which the Father wills and purposes for them as eternity succeeds to time.
