   “The clouds correspond to the letter of the Word – Divine truth accommodated to the mind of man. By this means . . . is that Golden City, New Jerusalem, brought down to earth to become a living reality in the hearts and minds of men. And fittingly you inscribe here the final word of prayers and trust – Amen. “For the Lord in His Providence has answered our prayers. He has blessed this land of ours. He has blessed His Church. And lest we forget, Amen signifies not only truth but faith. Faith to be significant must be conjoined to charity. Charity means action. Let us then put our truth into deed – our faith into action – for the New Church must be doers and workers.” 227
