THE CREATION PLAN OF GOD

The fact that the life of this world is a journey, not the destination, cannot be overemphasized. It is a time to sow, not to reap. The present world is limited. It does not have the means to fulfil our unlimited desires. It has the means to provide us subsistence at the physical level, but does not have the means to give us fulfilment at the spiritual level. During this limited life on Earth, what we need to do, first and foremost, is to seek the Creator and Sustainer of the universe. Having seen a glimpse of Paradise on this Earth, we should seek it in the core of our being. Intellectually, spiritually and morally, we should strive to make ourselves deserving of Paradise. We should devote our lives to preparing for the next life. All of us come into this world like ore, which has to be extracted and refined until it can be of use. We have to expand our consciousness through intellectual and spiritual development. This expanded consciousness is what being human means. Those who fail to attain the human level fail the test, and fail to achieve Paradise. Those who succeed will find both peace and happiness in this world, and a place in the Garden of Joy in the world to come, which we call Paradise. o THOSE WHO TRUST GOD WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED
