Through baptism we are brought into the life of the Holy Trinity
The purity of Heaven is far away from any worldly, sinful way of life. We may be half-way to Heaven, with Christ and Our Lady, in contemplation and acts of charity, but only by grace can we persevere to the end, on the 'hard road'
The Three Divine Persons are united and active in the unity of the Godhead, as if circling in unceasing communion. In a circle around them the many Saints are also circling, living in the Godhead, in the light and bliss of Divine Love.
