Ezekiel 17:22-24. 2 Cor. 5:6-10. Mark 4:26-32

The Father conceived His glorious world and spoke the word which brought it forth. I, His Son, beloved and loving, with Him before creation, am that Word and, with Our Holy Spirit, brought forth that which the Father purposed. And the sons of men, whom in due time He lovingly willed into existence, are part of this glorious, continuous creation.

I, the Father's Firstborn in Creation, took on human flesh that I might finish and perfect His glorious, loving purpose and - with Our Holy Spirit - bring the redeemed and sanctified creation into His Presence in the fulness of eternity.
Through My ministry, My life laid down in love and in self-giving and through My risen life I have continually pressed forward into this tremendous, glorious consummation. In each child I, the Father's Love Incarnate and His Incarnate Word, work, and in each group, community and people committed to the truth in loving-kindness and self-giving.

Feed on Me in your heart and mind that I may bring you to the fulness the Father seeks for you in the Kingdom of his love.
