A Call to Stand Apart
God planted in our hearts will have true and sweet fulfillment. Visit-
ing with God, enjoying life with the angels and with God’s friends
from all history, experiencing the special bonds of unity—these are
among the joys of heaven.
In our life here, earthly, sin-restricted as it is, the greatest joy and
highest education are in service. And in the future reality, uninhib-
[103]
ited by the limitations of sinful humanity, we will find our greatest
joy and highest education in service—witnessing and learning rich
mysteries: Christ in you, the hope of glory

Think About It
1. What is the relationship between choice of career and choice
of a ministry for God?
2. Is it wrong to be ambitious? Why, or why not?
3. What personal values are associated with “true education”?
4. How can one “cooperate with God and heavenly angels” for
the good of others?
5. What is “true service” for others?
[104]
