We are called by God and we are called from death to life. We are called to the miracle of salvation and we are called to sanctification. We are called to everlasting life, and we are called to be blessed in this life. We are called to live holy lives, and out of this we are called to do certain tasks. It is in the fulfillment of those varied tasks that the words from the mountain continue to call us and inform us how to live our lives in ways which are pleasing to God and which will bless our lives with treasure beyond measure.
