“Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began,” (II Timothy 1:9)

The promise of our salvation and success comes from the lips of Truth. God’s perfect and precise intention for us was set forth in the beginning, when He first created All and found it good, right, done. This identity and purpose has been ours forever. God made us to glorify Him and the Christ came to reveal that fact to us, to show us our calling that can’t be drowned out or obstructed.

We have heard our name announced by Love. We have claimed our inheritance as children of God, and we are urged forth and protected in our cause by divine Life itself. It is not because of what we have done, or even what we want to do, that we are able to succeed and prove His grace and goodness. It is because God’s plan is without flaw or failure. He knows what He is doing with us and for us, and He has established us as His own immortal evidence.

This holy calling of ours, this beckoning to be good and to do good, is not something we must earn or work toward. It is not about sacrifice and toil, but it is simply being who we already are, as God’s own expression. We prove Him because we are the evidence of His allness and goodness. Our love of Love is our calling and this very love is also our guarantee that we are able to do what He requires, to fully please Him, and to be truly satisfied.
