The Toronto Star has recently been running a series of articles about ideas that would make a positive difference for the city of Toronto. Ideas submitted ranged from making all streets in the downtown core one-way to closing downtown traffic during the day. While some solutions have been discussed for years, others were new. One such suggestion was for Toronto to separate from Ontario!

Our life in Southern Ontario is pretty good overall. But, what if each person made even one small change to make their community better? What if each person did something whether it be discontinuing littering or doing a better job of cleaning their sidewalk of snow? The collective benefit from thousands of people making even a small change would be enormously positive.

We would all like to see improvement in the way government is run and how public money is spent. We would also like to see improvement in how others look after our natural resources or keep our city clean. We would like to see a better world for our children and grandchildren to grow up in – one with clean air, pure water, wholesome food as well as genuine peace and harmony. We would like to see an end to crime of all kinds – a world where humans do not harm each other in any way.

This is all possible and will most certainly be the norm in the coming Kingdom of God. To read more see the booklet The Gospel of the Kingdom at: http://www.ucg.ca/booklets/gospel-of-the-kingdom.
