"In what then," said they to the angel, "does heavenly joy consist?"
The angel replied briefly, "In the delight of doing something that is useful to ourselves and to others; which delight derives its essence from love and its existence from wisdom. The delight of being useful, originating in love, and operating by wisdom, is the very soul and life of all heavenly joys."
Emmanuel Swedenborg
"Do not work for food that spoils, but for food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. On Him God the Father has placed His seal of approval."
Then they asked Him, "What must we do to do the works God requires?"
Jesus answered, "The work of God is this: to believe in the One He has sent."
John 6:27-29
