Jesus said
to His Disciples, "Say this when
you pray,
'Father, may You be held holy, Your
Kingdom come."
Luke
11:1
He who has made all things in Heaven
and earth created them for holiness.
The natural world reflects the Father's
holiness in the grace and beauty
of its flora and its fauna and the
sounds of nature echo their thanksgiving.
And the Father yearns for His beloved
children to be holy that they may
have that fellowship with Him that
He desires. Each child of man who
works and prays that the Father's
Name be held in holiness bears witness
to His fellowmen of that same holiness
reflecting it in all he says and
does.
And as the Father's Name is known,
His love received and shared, so
is His Kingdom spread throughout
the world. And the Kingdom of this
world becomes the Kingdom of His
righteousness, each faithful, loving
heart a kingdom and His Church potentially
a commonwealth of love.
Love is the name, the means and
the fulfilment, and where Love reigns
the Father's Kingdom is established.
