And what is the “Blessing” that will be received? Will it be a reward of<br />
eternal life in “heaven above” as Paul believed and preached? No, of course not ...<br />
For Jesus made it repeatedly clear that his “blessing” was an experience of pure<br />
Bliss – the perfect mixture of Joy & Peace; the Here&Now state of being he called<br />
“the Kingdom of God” (Luke <strong>17</strong>:20-21); the state of being available <strong>to</strong> each &<br />
every one of us who honor the “rains that repeatedly fall” by Loving others with<br />
humility and with courage (see Matthew 18:3-4 & John 13:15-<strong>17</strong> et al).<br />
Amen … Let it be so!<br />
