God made his Kingdom beautiful and thus created mankind
“He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end.”
Ecclesiastes 3:11

2 - Reflect
Man cannot grasp the idea of eternity in its full extent, he cannot comprehend the vastness of God's power, nor the vastness of His Love, for these are infinite and perfect, unlike man, whose passage on earth is brief, imperfect and full of obstacles.
God cares for men with the Love of a father for his children, with the Love of a man for his childhood friend. His Love is pure and sincere, it is the Love that heals every wound, that channels souls, that rejoices life.
God put in man the sense of time, since man needs to be guided by a clear structure that allows him to insert himself in his finite stay on earth. This step, however, is framed in infinity: the Love of God, his mercy, his embrace that lasts for all eternity. How good our soul feels in his Kingdom, how good it feels to know that he forgives, that he welcomes us into his arms.
In God we all find ourselves, because his home embraces all that exists on earth and in heaven. His Love is so great that man is unable to understand it either. But it does not matter, it is enough that he can live it, that he can share his faith with his community, that he is kind to his family and friends, that he practices good in a disinterested way. That is enough to merit the Kingdom of the Lord, the one who is perfect and unique.
