Thursday,
August 1st
Matt.
13:47-53
The Father's Kingdom is inclusive,
for His love comprehensively embraces
and ceaselessly interpenetrates
all that is. It is the sum of all
things. But it is offered, not imposed
upon each child of man, and all
are free to accept or to refuse
the strategy of love which underlies
all life both here and in eternity.
The Father's love compassionately
contains His whole creation, and
it suffers to the end of time in
every child of man rejecting it.
