Salvation is a process, the ongoing process of becoming. It's a lifetime work, never done. It's a striving. You can tell who the saved ones are. They are the ones who never stop working for the good, who always keep loving, who try always to give the best of themselves, and who most of all are never stingy with the gift of Life.
Salvation is a dynamic process and it is the aim and business of our religion.
I think we could all say, Amen, to that. I would simply add that salvation or wholeness is both a gift and a promise and that we don t always have to be striving and working for it. It is the gift of life, both beautiful and fragile, given without the asking, and the promise that we are always worthy to give and receive love no matter how much we may have fallen short of love s wholeness and and perfection. Let us indeed be about the aim and business of our religion.
