If we trace the derivation of the word hallowed, we will discover a most extraordinarily significant fact. The word hallowed has the same root as holy, whole, wholesome, and heal, or healed; so we see that the nature of God is complete and perfect—altogether good. Some very remarkable consequences follow from this fact. We have agreed that an effect must be similar in its nature to its cause, and so, because the nature of God is hallowed, everything that is projected by that Cause must be hallowed or perfect too. God cannot cause or send anything but perfect good. God cannot, as people sometimes think, send sickness or trouble, or accidents—much less death—for these things are unlike His nature.
Thou art of purer eyes than to behold evil, and canst not look on iniquity…(Habakkuk 1:13).
We were created perfect. Our separation from God, has left us vulnerable to imperfection because we chose our own path rather than following God’s will. If we are to claim the perfection God granted us, we must reunite with God fully, wholly and willingly. When we do, we will open the door to the garden and the perfection therein. There, we will be healed, whole and holy.
In communion,
