The Father's peace shines through the faithfully committed in Our love, His power for action enables and empowers all obedient to His word. And His love reveals the nature of His Being to all who look for truth and understanding in His world and for knowledge of a right relationship towards others.But the way is never easy for the faithful and the true of heart. The Father offers freedom to accept or to reject His blessings and His gifts. Love must be free and can never be imposed: it must be free to operate within the heart and mind, welcomed in the soul and made the dynamic of all thought and action.

And not infrequently faithfulness in this brings suffering. This needs must be where freedom operates. But suffering need never be without its purpose or its meaning. My obedience to the Father's loving purpose inevitably involved the opposition of all opposing love's criteria. But through that suffering and My obedience even unto death I have redeemed the world and thus become the means of man's salvation. This is the power, the purpose and the joy of all the faithfully committed in Our love: to identify in all things and in every situation with the Father's will and loving purpose in the light and power and peace of that saving, sanctifying love.
