We know not the time to depart

A craftsman or woman train their mind and hands to build machines or buildings, (ETC).
All of us can build our hearts minds and souls to appreciate and love each other as God showed us through loving us. When any of us as we come together make it about keeping our total being in a state that separates ourselves from being connected to this world and enter the world of God where every person is equal to each other under God then we can start to connect as one in the embrace of our Heavenly Father and his kingdom will start to appear in our sight heart and soul. Anything of this world is not needed to take with us when it's time for us to return to God so let's let it all go. The things we should be holding onto should be the love kindness and joy we share with each other for that's the stairwell we will travel to our final destination.  God is Love and salvation.
