"Our heavenly Mother, Jesus, may not suffer us that are His children to perish: for He is All-mighty, All-wisdom, and All-love; and so is none but He,—blessed may He be!"
Julian of Norwich (Ch. 61)
A good earthly mother watches over her child and never lets any real harm come to the child, as much as it is within her power. But our heavenly Mother Jesus watches over us, the children, so perfectly that He never allows any real harm to come to us, even to the point of never allowing us to really perish. Our Mother Jesus has all the love, all the wisdom and all the power needed to keep us from any real or ultimate harm, and that is exactly what this wonderful Mother does. We have eternal life with our Trinity family. Nothing can touch that. Nothing can hinder or halt that relationship of love and union. Family is forever. We are always God's child. We are born of God and cannot go back and be unborn. We are a permanent member of the family and permanently loved and kept safe. Nothing can snatch us from the arms of our heavenly Mother. Nothing can ultimately hurt or defeat us. We are enjoying face to face union relationship with our Trinity family right now and forevermore. For eternal life is just this - to be known by God and to know God, to be loved by God and to love God, to belong, to have perfect relationship, to enjoy close connection, to to enjoy all the acceptance and joy and life that comes from being part of the family of God!
"Nothing between us and God, our faces shining with the brightness of his face."
2 Corinthians 3:18 (MSG)
"You put him in charge of everything human So he might give real and eternal life to all in his care. And this is the real and eternal life: That they know you, The one and only true God, And Jesus Christ, whom you sent. I glorified you on earth By completing down to the last detail What you assigned me to do."
John 17:2-3 (MSG)
"And I give them eternal life, and they shall never lose it or perish throughout the ages. [To all eternity they shall never by any means be destroyed.] And no one is able to snatch them out of My hand."
John 10:28 (AMPC)
A Prayer: Just to know You, to be loved by You, to know I am accepted and belong in Your family circle, is real life to me!
