Walking in beauty integrates person and community with land, cosmos, and Deity. The heavenly pattern of that integration is truth that we can taste, “on earth as it is in heaven.” The goodness of beauty assures us that we can share this taste with others. Trusting the promise of our personal and planetary destiny, we relax and enjoy the unfolding. Not that life is easy, but the meaning and value of our struggles make the yoke light.

I look forward to that distant day when all is in harmony, when all the strident conflicts have been resolved and unified. But even so we do see glimpses of that unification from time to time, and we are filled with joy when we behold this foreshadowing of things to come.
In the meantime while we are awaiting the outward unification of things, we should strive to unify our inner lives, and this is done by choosing the Father’s will over our own. When we do this we witness the value of spiritual love zipping the opposing sides of truth and goodness into beauty. Thou will be done on earth as it is done in heaven.

Spiritual love zipping the opposing sides of truth and goodness into beauty! I’ll be thinking about that one for a while. Thanks, Dr. Perry.
You are most welcome.
