In Love With The Lord

A Prayer for No Retirement of Goodness

Our lives that will lead to heaven will not be a life of retirement from the world, but a life of goodness in the world. Give us a life of charity in acting sincerely and justly in every occupation, in every transaction, and in every work from an interior that is from a heavenly origin. It is according to divine laws that such a life will not be difficult. God hath numbered thy kingdom and finished it. Thou art weighed in the balance and found wanting; the quality of truth and good is signified by measures and balances in the world. The Lord keeps us in freedom of thought, so gently and so tacitly leading us. Thus in freedom implants and enroots good into our lives.
