Union with God is really possible. Unity with God I presume, is what is meant by Heaven, but that too is available in this life for the humble of heart.

We rarely think of the air we breathe, yet it is in us and around us all the time. In similar fashion, the presence of God penetrates us, is all around us, is always embracing us.

Just by the very nature of our birth, we are on the spiritual journey.

We're obviously at the edge of something quite new in humanity's experience. That is this globalization process which isn't just economic or social, but involves the interpenetration of cultures, people moving to different places several times in their lifetime, traveling for business or pleasure, and marrying people of very different cultural backgrounds, all of which was almost impossible a hundred years ago.

For human beings, the most daunting challenge is to become fully human. For to become fully human is to become fully divine.

God will bring people and events into our lives, and whatever we may think about them, they are designed for the evolution of His life in us.

Becoming fully rational is not enough anymore; evidently it can lead to distortions of all the great human possibilities.
